On today's episode of Politics Nation, we are following breaking news about the wildfires in Los Angeles. Crews are actively battling the flames that have already devastated much of the Pacific Palisades and are now threatening to spread eastward, potentially affecting more neighborhoods in America's second-most populous city. Plus, President-Elect Trump will be leading the federal response to the disaster upon taking office in just nine days. Later in the show, Henna Hundle, a Public Health Researcher at Stanford University and a Delegate to the United Nations Climate Change Conferences will join us to discuss the report from the World Meteorological Organization, which stated that 2024 is on track to be the hottest year on record.
