stay safe out there, david willis near the blaze in the palisades.f california has been hit by devastating wildfires before, but these blazes are stronger and have come at an unusual time of year. so how much of a role does climate change play in such extreme events? here's our climate editorjustin rowlatt. still images show the fury and the horror of the fires engulfing parts of california. wildfires are a year—round threat in the state, but this year, it experienced its hottest summer on record. we know climate change is making the kind of hot, dry weather california has experienced in recent months more likely, and scientists say that is increasing the number of what are known as fire weather days. now, this graph shows the increase in the area burned by fires in the us since 1983. as you can see, it appears to have been growing steadily over the years, and there is another factor this year — the winter rains that normally reduce the fire risk in california didn't come. in fact, downtown los angeles has only received 0.16 inches of rain since octo

so mayor willie brown, mayor art agnos, mayor frank jordan, thank you. i want to thank our incoming board of supervisors and all of our esteemed elected guests here today. and finally, and most importantly, i want to thank all of you for being here today. today marks the beginning of a new era of accountability and change at city hall, one that, above all else, serves you. the people of san francisco. that begins now. i entered this mayor's race not as a politician, but as a dad who couldn't explain to my kids what they were seeing on our streets. and that has never hit me as hard as it did last month at san francisco general hospital. after meeting an extraordinary team of nurses, doctors, social workers and addiction specialists. we ended our tour in the nicu. there i stood in the quiet of a nursery, surrounded by babies in critical condition, some of them recovering from fentanyl exposure. it was a heartbreaking picture of our city's shortcomings in addressing the crisis on our streets. but as i listened to the nurses talk about their tiny patients, i

the news continues now with willie.seven after the hour to the confirmation hearings on capitol hill of pete hegseth to become the next secretary of defense. among the democrats asking questions, first term senator elissa slotkin of michigan, who pressed the former fox news host and military veteran on whether he would carry out an illegal order if president trump were to issue one. >> what i think i'm most concerned with is that no president has the right to use the uniform military in a way that violates the us constitution and further taints the military as that apolitical institution that we all want, right? and our founders designed the system so that, you know, we had posse comitatus that we weren't going to use active duty military inside the united states and make american citizens potentially scared of their own military. we went through our own experience with that, with the british as the secretary of defense, you will be the one man standing in the breach. should president trump give an illegal order, right?

yeah, let's talk about those benefits, because these are not just willy nilly. these are crucial benefits. we're talking about health care, which is a huge thing for veterans in this country. what other benefits would this impact? this impacted the ability to get assistance with housing, which of course is also very crucial for veterans, the ability to get military education paidd for the gi bill, the ability to receive things that are really meaningful to people who served like a military funeral. and so they have the whole range of being able to provide crucial services and supports to veterans, many of whom, as we know, suffer from disabilities and injuries as a result of their service. and all of these veterans were denied access to those services. so, lori, tell me a little bit about the settlement, the scope of the settlement. when will it start helping people, and what does it specifically say in terms of like someone like lilly? what will lilly receive as a result of this? all right. so the first thing to know is that today we filed in federal court in s

so i think this story is far from over, willie.some innings left to play. >> briefly, what's in the report? what will the public know if it is made public? >> i think we should compare this to the mueller report. right. and so at the very beginning, we didn't see everything. there was a lot blacked out of that report. and i expect the same might be the case here too. but what we should expect to see is the evidence that backs up all of the allegations that were in the indictment and perhaps beyond that. right. because an indictment is just sort of the skimming of the surface about what the government knows and intends to prove in their case come at some point we will get to see what the government learned in its investigation may not be fully in a couple of days, but it will be soon. >> we could know very soon. all right. msnbc legal correspondent lisa rubin. lisa, thanks so much, as always. good to see you, joe. >> thank you so much, willie. you know, jean, it's interesting we were talking about it earlier this week that, you know
