Or pulling 13 million from the fire departments budget and using much or what was left on DEI training.

Are you able to find where 13 million went towards DEI training?

Best I can find is that there was a $17.6 million budget decrease—$7 million reduction in overtime, additional personnel cuts, salary adjustments, etc. I don't see where that money was diverted to DEI. However, I did find a $125.9 million budget increase for the police department, I'd look there.

A month before fires, L.A. fire chief warned budget cuts were hampering emergency response

The Los Angeles Fire Department's budget was cut by $17.6 million, about 2%, this fiscal year. The fire chief warned last month it would make it harder to respond to emergencies.
