WASHINGTON ― President Joe Biden said Wednesday the Los Angeles home of his son Hunter Biden is in the danger zone of the area's devastating wildfires but may have been spared after initially fearing it was destroyed.
The status of the home, where Hunter Biden lives with his wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, remains unclear, the president said.
Biden called the wildfires caused by strong Santa Ana winds "astounding" after receiving a briefing from local fire department officials at a Santa Monica, California, fire station.
"There's only one piece of good news. My son lives out here. They got a notification yesterday that their home was probably burned to the ground. Today, it appears it may still be standing. They're not sure," Biden said.

(95,616 posts)A man who has devoted his life to the betterment of America & its people says, "I feel your pain"...
because my own son is in the path of this horrific conflagration and he and Dr Jill take a moment to share the common joy of a new baby, and (naming no names) those who hear just want to spit in his eye. I dont get it.
The current POTUS demonstrates his common humanity and kinship
and the incoming potus spews hatred of the US and wants to start WW III.
Jimmy Carters coffin was due to arrive in Washington DC yesterday, and thinking I would see some part of the ceremonies for this great American I turned on the tv.
There on the screen was Mango Mussolini, so I changed the station. Everywhere I looked including CSPAN there was the Monster babbling away and people who know better were sane-washing him. I know what we are in for, but I was surprised at how much this preview of our future hurt my heart.
Right Now Every Day our current president is doing things on our behalf. He came to California to dedicate a couple of national parks or similar on behalf of two Native American tribes (apologies to the tribes, but I wasnt paying close attention, so all I recall is that land important to them is going to be protected) . He got together with the governor, too. That was before the fires began and at that point Biden asked Newsom what he could do on behalf of those impacted by the fires.
You know what Mango Mussolini did? Got on social media and propaganda tv and blamed the fires on Gov Newsom and repeated his threat to send no fire aid to California. Be cause he, trump, has no empathy and no humanity at all.
But dont worry, Biden will be out of our hair in 12 days and counting.
