we have also heard from the | we have also heard from the ukrainian president, zelensky, volunteeringattle tested to firefighters as well. eight states have authorised their fire crews to come and i've been speaking to some of them. when i had spoke to them they had come in from the front line where they had been battling the spires for some a0 hours. they were exhausted. they were getting some sleep and heading out for some 2a hours again. so an incredible fire fight going on. those aerial crews are really helping to make a difference, but president biden has authorised the screws to come in for brain across the united states for 180 days. i think thatjust united states for 180 days. i think that just shows you the fact that they know they will have to be it for the long haul. president biden says rebuilding after the fires will cost �*tens with more than 12,000 structures destroyed thousands of residents who have lost their homes are turning to evacuation centers. some people had their insurance policies cancelled before the fires but a temporary ban on cancellations has now been is

ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky did a podcast with a conservative podcaster this week, reachingaudience he had not tried to reach before, and it's had millions of listens. this comes as trump has indicated he may be changing his mind over ukraine, walking back a promise to end the war before he becomes president, and changing that to within the first 100 days. this has raised hopes america will continue to support ukraine in its fight against russia. zelensky met with defense secretary lloyd austin in germany thursday, where he called on european countries to continue their support independent of what the united states does in the future. now, president biden was to meet with zelenskyy one last time in europe, but canceled that trip. laura, because of the fires. all right. thank you very much, scott. 550 right now. well, for the first time, warriors head coach steve kerr speaking out about losing his childhood home this week in the palisades fire, his 90 year old mother still lives there. he says he's incredibly thankful that she made it out safely, but he's still trying to proc

three days later, president trump speaks with president zelensky. he says the other thing there's a lot of talk about biden's son that biden stopped prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that. so whatever you can do with this attorney general would be great. biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution. so if you can look into it, it looks horrible to me in quote, the house managers talked about the bidens of burisma, 400 times, but never gave you the full picture. but here are those who did. the united kingdom's serious fraud unit deputy. assistant secretary of state george kent chris hynes, the abc white house reporter, abc good morning america. the washington post, the new york times. ukrainian law enforcement and the obama state department. they all thought there was cause to raise the issue about bidens and burisma. now the house managers might say without evidence that everything we just have said has been debunked, that the evidence points entirely and unequivocally in the other direction. that is a distraction.

i heard directly from ukraine's most senior leaders what they needed most from president zelensky onn. in the days after putin's all-out invasion many countries were flooding ukraine with donations of ammo and other capabilities. but i knew that if ukraine was to survive we needed to coordinate that security assistance. and we needed to do so in a way that met the evolving nature of the fight so i convened nations of goodwill right here at ramstein and i carried with me the urgency that i heard in kyiv just hours earlier. so i opened our hastily arranged first meeting by urging some 40 countries to build a common understanding of the situation in ukraine. and today this contact group provides more of that common understanding. it provides a common cause and today some 50 countries are coordinating closely with ukraine to send vital consistent and cutting-edge security assistance. and that has helped ukraine turn ukraine's struggle and to one of the great military success stories of our time. ukrainian military has shown breathtaking courage and the ukrainian people have shown magnifi

we know today that president zelensky of ukraine has offered to send fire teams from ukraine to helpthis area today, we've had aerial drops of water which have been effective — over 500 million gallons worth of water dropped from the sky to try and control these blazes — but it is a race against time now with the wind. we've heard from the la mayor today, karen bass, saying she is confident the president—elect donald trump will come in the capacity as president to see the devastation on the ground. he has criticised the response from california politicians, saying it is incompetent. we've also heard from the governor of california gavin newsom, and he has called on people to stay in la, to stay here and rebuild. but when you survey the scenes here again and you take a look at the challenge ahead in doing so, that road to recovery and how long it will be, you'll see the challenge of people to stay here and rebuild — particularly when we know that climate change is exacerbating these weather—related events — and, ultimately, they could just find themselves in the path of harm once agai

. >> well, i had a long talk with zelensky today, and i think that. as long as we continue to keep western europe united and as it relates to ukraine, that there is a real chance that the ukrainians can prevail because the cost to russia is incredibly high, over 600 and some thousand dead or wounded. the koreans they brought in as having high mortality rates as well. and i i provided every bit of funding, that authority i have as president to be able to do that now. and i know that there are significant number of democrats and republicans on the hill who think we should continue to support ukraine, and it is my hope and expectation they'll speak up and not agree to president if, if trump decides to cut off funding for ukraine. >> the president elect's position on that, on the influence your decision to enact the oil sanctions on russia today that would put more pressure on russia at a point where the president elect appears to be tied to the table. >> the truth of the matter is no. but if it hadn't, if other conditions didn't exist, it would have had

that meant overthrow the zelensky regime. that hasn't happened.still fighting. they are still stopping the russians. and i think it is important that biden threw all in with weapons, too. that was another big development today and yesterday. they've given them the means to fight with the hopes that that will create the conditions for negotiation. that is not a capitulation that trump sometimes talks about. that is a genuine negotiation. and i hope the president elect understands the differences between those two scenarios. >> well, we'll soon see and we'll have much to talk about. ambassador, good to see you again, as always. the former again, as always. the former united states ambassador ah mornings! cough? congestion? i'm feeling better. all in one and done... with mucinex kickstart. aaaaaaaaaaaaa. - headache? - better now. mucinex kickstart gives all-in-one and done relief with a morning jolt of instant cooling sensation. it's comeback season. >> i'm looking for ways to keep active and mobile. >> try pemetrexed. pemetrexed is different than ot
