A fire that 26 00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:27.879 started in San Gabriel Canyon has grown over fifty thousand acres, 27 00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:30.599 burned thirty three homes in Mount Baldy and Right Wood, 28 00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:34.920 and destroyed six cabins in wilderness areas. The fire has 29 00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.400 been burning since Sunday. It's spread into San Bernardino County 30 00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:41.760 and is still zero percent contained. It's the largest active 31 00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.280 fire burning in the state. The fire in the San 32 00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:47.280 Bernardino Mountains has grown to thirty six thousand acres. 33 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:48.920 It's eighteen percent surrounded. 34 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.640 In Orange County, the fire that started in Tribuco Canyon 35 00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:55.519 and spread into Riverside County has burned more than twenty 36 00:01:55.519 --> 00:02:00.519 three thousand acres. It is five percent surrounded. Four people 37 00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:03.359 charged in the shooting death of former General Hospital actor 38 00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:08.319 Johnny Whackter has pleaded guilty to attempted robbery and grand theft. 39 00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:11.800 Two other eighteen year olds are charged with murder. Whacktor 40 00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:14.319 was shot in downtown LA in May when he confronted 41 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.599 the men who were allegedly trying to steal his car's 42 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:21.000 catalytic converter viewership for the Trump Harris presidential. 43 00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.319 Debate was huge. 44 00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.919 Fifty seven million people watch the showdown between former President 45 00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.280 Trump and Vice President Harris on Tuesday night. That's nearly 46 00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:34.520 ten million more than the number that watched the debate 47 00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:37.759 in June between President Biden and Trump. We'll be checking 48 00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:39.759 in with ABC's Karen Travers to find out what the 49 00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.240 candidates are up to and where they're headed to next. 50 00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:45.520 Let's get started with some of the stories coming out 51 00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.360 of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. I mentioned that 52 00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:49.719 things were happening in. 53 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:54.360 Space FACEXES go for spacewalk operations before advisors down ready 54 00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:57.879 for secondary Otubo initiation and crew is go for spacewater. 55 00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.599 The crew of the SpaceX Polaire mission has made history 56 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:06.240 by completing the world's first all civilian spacewalk. The crew 57 00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:10.639 is made up of billionaire entrepreneur Jared Isaacman, retired Air 58 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:14.719 Force Lieutenant Colonel Scott Petite known as Kid, and SpaceX 59 00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:18.759 engineers Sarah Gillis and Anna Mennon. Isaacman, who funded the 60 00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:22.360 flight and Gillis, began their roughly thirty minute spacewalks just 61 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:25.280 after three o'clock this morning our time. The Polaris Dawn 62 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:29.080 mission is designed to test procedures and technologies that could 63 00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.680 be used in future long duration space missions. 64 00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:34.960 So cool. Okay, back to the fires. 65 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:38.319 The fire that started in the Angelus National Forest above 66 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:41.439 Glendora has grown to more than fifty thousand acres. As 67 00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:44.400 I mentioned, still zero percent surrounded. Firefighters say they've been 68 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.120 able to make some progress because of a slight increase 69 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:50.840 in humidity and the decrease in temperatures. The north side 70 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.360 of the fire has remained the most active. Evacuation orders 71 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:56.840 are still in place for the East Fork communities of 72 00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:00.560 Camp Williams Resort and River Community, and for Mountain Baldy, 73 00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.879 right Wood and Pinion Hills. Several homes have burned. The 74 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.000 Mountain High Ski Resort was spared. Resort employees turned on 75 00:04:07.039 --> 00:04:10.400 snowmaking machines before they left the area. Fire has been 76 00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:15.120 burning since Sunday afternoon. Firefighters say the change in weather 77 00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:17.839 has helped them battle the fire in the San Bernardino Mountains, 78 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:22.279 but CalFire Operations Chief Jed Gains says neighbors should stay 79 00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:25.360 vigilant because contion conditions could change at any time. 80 00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:28.000 We're still a couple miles out from Big Bear, but 81 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.560 as you know, it doesn't take much for where it's 82 00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.600 aligned and where the fire is established in that Bear 83 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.000 Creek drainage to come out onto that La Mesa Bluff 84 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:36.600 up there near Boulder. 85 00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:39.920 Gaines says the lower temperatures, higher humidity, and more favorable 86 00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:41.120 winds have been beneficial. 87 00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:42.160 Over the past two days. 88 00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.720 The fires burned more than thirty six thousand acres and 89 00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.759 is eighteen percent surrounded. Governor Newsom has declared a state 90 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.360 of emergency in each of the counties affected by the 91 00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:54.519 major wildfires. Newsom says the state is deploying every available 92 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.360 resource to fight the three fires in southern California. Thorty 93 00:04:57.399 --> 00:04:59.279 say anyone who lives near the fire zone should pay 94 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:03.279 attention to all evacuation orders and warnings. Taylor Swift and 95 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.360 Post Malone have won the biggest award of the MTV 96 00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:09.680 Video Music Awards. They got the trophy for Video of 97 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.759 the Year last night for Fortnite. Swift thanked a lot 98 00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:15.759 of people, including pro football player Travis Kelsey. 99 00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:20.439 I would always just hear like someone like cheering and like. 100 00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:23.600 Woo from across the studio where. 101 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.279 We were shooting it, and that one person was my 102 00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:31.480 boyfriend Travis h Swift won a total of seven awards 103 00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:34.519 last night. She now has the most VMAs of all 104 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:35.439 time with thirty. 105 00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:37.639 That's one more than Beyonce. 106 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:42.160 Let's say good morning to a Swifty. I just heard 107 00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:44.040 good morning, Karen Travis. 108 00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:44.560 Good morning. 109 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.040 Yes, I was listening to that piece with great interest 110 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:48.720 because I fell asleep last night. 111 00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:51.839 Oh you didn't see it. I did not see it. 112 00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:54.360 I will need to watch the clips today, but my 113 00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:56.639 kids will be excited to watch it with me later tonight. 114 00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:57.839 Love it, love it. 115 00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:02.279 Okay, So, fresh off the debate YEARNS Vice President Harris 116 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.360 is going back on the campaign trail. Before they do that, though, 117 00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:07.839 they're taking a little time to strategize. 118 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:11.399 Yeah, you know, yesterday was a down day for politics, 119 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.160 the nine to eleven anniversary. There's always a pause in 120 00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:18.680 campaigning or politics in DC as the nation commemorates and 121 00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:21.800 remembers what happened on that day and just pauses for 122 00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:26.040 a little bit. So we didn't see any campaign activity yesterday, 123 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.519 but today they're back at it. We're going to see 124 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.759 the Vice president doing two rallies in North Carolina tomorrow. 125 00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:35.560 She's in Pennsylvania. But the campaign was strategizing yesterday about 126 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:37.560 how they could take advantage of what they think is 127 00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:39.560 momentum coming out of the debate. 128 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:42.439 They feel that it was a decisive. 129 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:45.240 Win over Donald Trump, and now they're starting what they 130 00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.240 are calling a more aggressive campaigning stage. 131 00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:50.480 More aggressive, more aggressive, right. 132 00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:52.120 I mean you think about it though, Like she was 133 00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:54.439 down for a couple of days heading into the debate. 134 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.000 There was the convention that took a lot of attention 135 00:06:57.199 --> 00:06:59.439 in her time, and she was preparing for the debate 136 00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.240 even before the convention. Now it's really like the traditional 137 00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:05.879 campaign look where we're just going to see her Governor 138 00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:09.240 Walls and the other surrogates doing rally rally, rally, rally, 139 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:13.319 lots of local media interviews, lots of constituent voter outreach, 140 00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.040 you know, events like that. But you know, the big 141 00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:19.319 message we're getting from campaign officials is the debate didn't 142 00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:21.560 change the race. You know, the trajectory of the race 143 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:22.519 is still the same. 144 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:24.439 It's a very very tight race. 145 00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:27.600 The battlegrounds are very close, and as she put it 146 00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.240 herself the other night at that debate watch party that 147 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:32.639 she visited, we've got a lot of work to do. 148 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.399 They put out a fundraising email yesterday and said debates 149 00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.480 don't win elections. They've got to get out there and 150 00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:38.240 do the hard work. 151 00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:41.079 Now, Okay, you mentioned that she is planning to do 152 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:47.279 local media interviews that only affects certain pockets. So is 153 00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:49.519 she going to be doing any more national interviews. 154 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:53.079 It's not clear. You know, this new phase, we're told 155 00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:56.519 that she will be doing more media engagements, but primarily 156 00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:01.199 targeting battleground states and others very specific you know, important 157 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:03.720 voting groups. We are told that they have local media 158 00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:06.199 interviews set up for the coming days, So I think 159 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:07.920 we will have to just be paying attention to see 160 00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:12.199 where they pop up in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, probably Wisconsin. 161 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:15.399 But you know, that's the strategy for the campaigns at 162 00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:19.879 this stage. Doing a big national interview gets you so much, 163 00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.879 but doing a very specifically targeted interview in the top 164 00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:27.600 market in the battleground state, that's important to get the 165 00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:30.399 attention that they want in those really critical areas. 166 00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:32.960 There's still a lot of talk after the debate that 167 00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:36.480 she really didn't answer questions, that she you know, just 168 00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:39.879 switched topics and people still don't really know what she 169 00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:42.720 stands for. Is her campaign going to address that and 170 00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:47.320 is she prepared for in some of those smaller town interviews, 171 00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.120 I would imagine somebody's going to be trying to really 172 00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:50.919 get some answers. 173 00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:53.720 Yeah, and I think that's probably a focus to do 174 00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:56.440 those types of interviews where you can drill down to 175 00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:59.879 a specific policy issue that is critical for that era. 176 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:03.240 But you know, I think they'll say now, like, we're 177 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:05.519 going to be out there on the trail talking to 178 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:08.759 voters directly, and this is going to be the focus 179 00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:11.440 over the next two months at this point. You know, 180 00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:14.360 I think in terms of where the questions answered, you 181 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:16.759 know that New York Times poll that said twenty eight 182 00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:19.799 percent of Americans wanted to hear more from her in 183 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:21.759 the debate or in general, they want to hear more 184 00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:25.279 about her policies. We haven't seen good polling yet since 185 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:27.159 the debate, so we've got to give it a couple 186 00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.080 of days. But that's going to be a big question. 187 00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.399 Did she answer that in her performance on Tuesday night? 188 00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.679 Okay, so here's the big question. What's the campaign saying 189 00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:36.200 about the Taylor Swift endorsement. 190 00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:39.559 I mean, they're very thrilled, they're surprised, actually, and it 191 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:41.919 also it came as a surprise. They truly were not 192 00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:43.519 anticipating it that night. 193 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:44.679 I think they were. 194 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:46.320 Hoping it was going to come at some point before 195 00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.519 election day, but they weren't anticipating it coming in the 196 00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:52.279 minutes after the debate and that endorsement. She did make 197 00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:54.360 it clear that, you know, Taylor said, I watched the 198 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.600 debate tonight, and so you know she's paying attention. The 199 00:09:57.639 --> 00:10:01.039 other notable thing too, the st I just want to 200 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:02.360 make sure I get the number right too, and I'm 201 00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:04.320 going to pull it up here in my email that 202 00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:07.759 you know, she directed people in her post to go 203 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.200 and register to vote and look up early voting statistics, 204 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:13.799 and we were told yesterday that there had been about 205 00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:17.080 three hundred and forty thousand visitors to vote dot gov. 206 00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.879 That came from the url that she created and shared. 207 00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:25.200 So I love her absolutely, Okay, And before I let 208 00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:26.879 you go, we were talking about the nine to eleven 209 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.039 and they took some time off and what we didn't see, 210 00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:32.360 which was politics yesterday, but what we did see was 211 00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:32.960 a handshake. 212 00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:36.320 Yeah, they shook hands yesterday. I thought that was it 213 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:39.960 was a good yeah, especially Aberg seemed to kind of 214 00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.360 coordinate that. But a handshake between the vice president and 215 00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:47.480 the former president Donald Trump at the ceremony at the 216 00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:49.440 Work Trade Center site in New York yesterday. 217 00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:52.080 All Right, ABC's Karen Travis, thanks so much, have a 218 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:53.840 great day.

The company wanted to redevelop the 250 00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:27.440 La Grand Hotel into the city's tallest skyscraper. Campbell's Soup 251 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:30.480 is going the way of the Dodo sort of. After 252 00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:32.720 one hundred and fifty five years, the company is dropping 253 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:36.320 the soup part and we'll just be called the Campbell's Company. 254 00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:42.440 Campbell's owns snack brands, Goldfish Snyders of Hanover, Cape Cod 255 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:43.279 and Pepperidge Farm. 256 00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:44.240 They also owned Prego. 257 00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:48.279 The company says it's snacks sales are up thirteen percent, 258 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:53.600 while soups grew just three percent. Campbell's more than Soup. 259 00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:57.799 Maybe that would be good, a new good tagline for them. Okay, 260 00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:01.039 some quick thinking by Mountain High Ski Resort or may 261 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:03.559 have saved their lives and also saved the ski resort. 262 00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:06.279 I love this story because there's so many awful stories 263 00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.080 tied to all these fires. So we saw the pictures 264 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:11.600 of the Mountain High Ski Resort and the flames going 265 00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:13.960 through the resort, and at one point they thought the 266 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:17.200 resort was lost, but it wasn't because of some fast 267 00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:20.000 work by the employees. Before they got out, they turned 268 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.519 on the snow cannons. Normally they're making snow, this time 269 00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:28.440 they just shot water into the air and those cannons 270 00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:32.240 were like makeshift firefighting tools and saved the ski resort. 271 00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:35.799 So good on you, Mountain High Ski Resort workers. Three 272 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.360 wildfires burning in southern California have grown so big they 273 00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:42.559 can be seen from space. Pictures from a Noah satellite 274 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:45.200 show Plumes of smoke coming from the more than thirty 275 00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:47.879 six thousand acre fire in the San Bernardino Mountains, the 276 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.919 near fifty thousand acre fire that's burning in right Wood 277 00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:53.559 and Mount Baldy and around there. And the twenty three 278 00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:55.919 thousand acre fire that started in Orange County and has 279 00:13:55.919 --> 00:14:00.240 crossed into Riverside County, burning towards Lake Elsinore year, Ol 280 00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:02.720 dad accused of kidnapping his nine month old son has 281 00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:05.840 been arrested. Police say David Avalos took his son early 282 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.240 yesterday morning at Huntington Park, which prompted an Amber alert. 283 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.200 The boy was found two hours later, and police then 284 00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:15.759 tracked down and arrested Avalos. In Los Angeles, California, AG 285 00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:18.799 Rob Bonte is among forty two attorneys general who are 286 00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.200 urging Congress to pass legislation that would implement the US 287 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:26.000 Surgeon General's idea to put warning labels on social media. 288 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:28.360 At six o five at Handle on the News, are 289 00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.840 you ready for an extreme weather event? A lot of 290 00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.120 homeowners say they are not prepared. Let's say good morning 291 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.279 now to ABC's Tom Rivers. 292 00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:37.600 Tom. 293 00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:41.399 US Secretary of State Antony Blincoln has met with Ukraine's 294 00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:42.639 President Zelenski. 295 00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:45.039 What was the purpose of that one? 296 00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:48.480 Yeah, he was here in London, and he went with 297 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:52.919 the new British Foreign Secretary, David Lammy to Kiev surprise surprise, 298 00:14:53.440 --> 00:14:56.159 handing over more money to Kiev, this time to the 299 00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:00.399 tune of seven hundred million of US taxpayer dollars eighty 300 00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:05.679 million of British taxpayer dollars. This particular time, they discussed 301 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.039 the uh, if it will the plea by Zelensky that 302 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.639 he wants US LED Western long range missiles to be 303 00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:18.759 allowed to go far into Russia, and again both of 304 00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:22.840 them said Lammy and Mike Gan said that that will 305 00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:25.799 be discussed between the new Prime Minister here Cures Starmer, 306 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.600 and the President Biden when the two meet up in 307 00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.440 Washington on Friday. So case's kind of following I guess 308 00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:36.960 a script that seems pretty predictive, but we wait to 309 00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:38.960 see what the outcome will be tomorrow. 310 00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:41.759 Yeah, it is the US and the UK. Are they 311 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:43.600 leaning one way or the other or do we know? 312 00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:48.799 Interesting they're they're they're kind of playing the neutral umpire 313 00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:53.679 at this stage. Interesting input though from Dmitry Peskov in Moscow, 314 00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.759 the Kremlin spokesman. He said, it's kind of following a 315 00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:00.399 pattern whereby this decision in his view was made long 316 00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:03.720 ago and it will just be rolled out in the 317 00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.080 coming coming days and weeks. So watching space on that. 318 00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:11.279 A couple of weeks ago, Sergei Lavrov, Foreign Secretary said, 319 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.039 you're playing with a box of matches, and you know, 320 00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.960 you really are playing with fire on this one nuclear 321 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:22.240 powered Russia. And of course if there is some retribution, 322 00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:25.480 which Moscow says there will be, you won't feel it 323 00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:30.159 in Los Angeles, but maybe parts of Western Europe will, so. 324 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:37.159 It could really so Ukraine is attacking and firing things 325 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.279 into Russia. We know that there have been drone attacks 326 00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.159 and that kind of stuff, and they've taken over territory, 327 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.320 but not using US missiles. 328 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.440 That's the distinction they have on very very limited use. 329 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:53.120 But again, the Ukraine really wants, you know, Western consultants 330 00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:56.480 in there to go, you know, plot courses, you know, 331 00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:00.360 go deep into Russia and then have a grab a 332 00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:03.320 Ukrainian by the hand and put their thumb on the 333 00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:07.640 button and launch it. It is a very very dangerous 334 00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:12.079 escalation at this point, and it is very very scary, 335 00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:14.119 and I think it's kind of sleep walking into this. 336 00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:18.759 It certainly hasn't come out in the in the US campaign. 337 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:22.640 But people should take notice of this because it is very, 338 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:28.400 very extremely dangerous and nobody's nobody's really talking about which. 339 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.240 Is so while we're talking to you now, because it 340 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:34.559 does it does sound like a pretty big escalation of 341 00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:37.839 where we're not supposed to be involved with and how 342 00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:41.839 how is the war going? I mean, is is Ukraine 343 00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:45.160 gaining any ground? Is Russia continuing to push We're not 344 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:46.400 hearing much about it. Again. 345 00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:51.359 No, occasionally you hear some some American reports, some cheerleaders 346 00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:54.680 are saying that, you know, Ukraine's no, we just had 347 00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:59.799 blinked in Poland saying that Ukraine is winning and that 348 00:17:59.880 --> 00:18:02.079 is not the case. On the ground. Russia is pushing 349 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.119 Ukraine forces back on the six hundred and twenty mile line, 350 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:11.359 the line of confrontation in eastern Ukraine. Russia has stabilized 351 00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:15.359 the incursion into Kursk, and that's where it lies right now. 352 00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:17.960 And I think the Democrats are going to be just 353 00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:22.799 holding their breath that nothing dramatically changes before the fifth 354 00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:27.480 of November. They've been through Afghanistan and the chaos of 355 00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:31.079 the withdrawal there. They don't want another black mark, if 356 00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:34.359 you will, in Ukraine before voting. 357 00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:37.680 Day yeah, okay, and you mentioned kurs So they're stabilizing 358 00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:40.480 that because I think the last time we talked, the 359 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:45.240 Ukrainians had taken more territory in Russia. So they're not 360 00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:48.200 pushing forward in Russia anymore, and are they being pushed 361 00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:49.200 back in Russia. 362 00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:53.920 It is pretty stable. The hope from the Ukrainian side 363 00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:56.799 is that Russia would pull out some of its forces 364 00:18:56.839 --> 00:19:01.599 in Ukraine to augment forces in that part that region 365 00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:04.680 of Russia to push the Ukrainians out. That did not happen. 366 00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:09.920 The Russians continued with their push through eastern Ukraine and 367 00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:13.400 they've been supplementing with some reinforcements, but not from Ukraine 368 00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.200 to deal with the with the incursion and cursed. So, 369 00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:19.559 you know, a lot of military analysts will saying, you know, 370 00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:22.440 it is the versionary.
