For thousands of years...more probably...what is now California has burned. But until recently, hardly anyone lived here. Now, millions do. And, wild fires are getting more intense and deadlier. In the wake of the Camp and Woolsey Fires, is it time to finally rethink where people are allowed---that's right---allowed---to build and live? We will go In Depth.

We'll also look at Malibu, an area notorious for routine wildfires, where residents insist on building time and time again.

Later,off to Finland we go to get the latest on their forest floor raking policies...the ones President Trump seems to think we should copy.

Talking about the President, over the weekend, he took to Twitter to apparently taunt a Southern California Congressman ---Adam Schiff---by substituting the last two letters of Schiff's name..turning it into a vulgarity. We will talk with Schiff...that's with two F's.. on In Depth.

And the White House blinks in its grudge match against CNN reporter Jim Acosta.
