Los Angeles On Fire

FFS, everything comes back to Trump or Biden for some of you guys. This is about the horrible lack of leadership in California. Can that not be more obvious?
In part…but it is by and large failed Dem leadership in California and in the White House.
 

lol…I don’t know who Ryan is, but you do you. Jessica Tarlov gets owned daily on “The Five”. It’s on FOX, so you probably don’t watch it. 🤔
She spewed her bullshit on this clip today....just listen to her words....the $17 million was spent last year on respirators and wasn't needed this year, so it really wasn't a budget cut..huh??...
And $50 million was held up by labor negotiations, but it is coming sometime now...huh???....can you say babble??...

Everyone knows who Ryan is. The only reason I don’t think you are Ryan is because of your post count and you post in the lounge. Ryan is too poor to post in the lounge.

State regulators have nothing to do with it.

Re-insurance is the issue, and re-insurers will not cover losses in those areas.

Lloyds, Munich RE, etc have all warned you about climate-related disasters getting worse for decades now. Folks like you (and Elno's new site) have ignored them. Gotten you to focus on gays and trannies, instead of fossil fuels amplifying the risks here.
Thought I read that Governor Newsome placed a “cap” on how high homeowner’s insurance premiums could go, so State Farm said…bye, bye.

No, it doesn’t, you absolute hack moron. Nothing was going to make this any better apart from stopping the climate change that likely contributed to this. The same phenomenon a certain side denied for years because their donor/owners told them to.

And why is it that people just assume that Republicans would be better at proactive planning and spending on things like infrastructure in order to mitigate some of the fire threat?

Why would Republicans magically be much better at this in California when they arent anywhere else?
 
Also, can blame environmentalists who blocked normal forest management practices like removing dead brush, thinning out trees, and some controlled burns. Additionally, in an attempt to save one fish species, some reservoirs were drained into the ocean resulting in low, to no, pressure in fire hydrants. Lastly, during the pandemic, the city of LA let 113 firefighters go who refused to get the COVID vax. I bet they would like to have those extra fire fighters now.
You retard. Go look up the reservoir levels in SoCal. At or above normal. The smelt controversy in Central CA had nothing to do with dry hydrants experienced at times fighting these fires. That was due to problems keeping water tanks filled properly refreshed during unprecedented times of need. That's an infrastructure problem that had existed for many decades but likely was not tested until this extreme event.

The city cut the LAFD’s budget by almost $20 million last year, with the bulk of the cuts hitting the department’s operational supplies. Los Angeles officials have come under fire over the Los Angeles Fire Department’s (LAFD) pursuit of a “racial equity plan” under Chief Kristin Crowley, whose biography touts her as “the first female and LGBTQ Fire Chief” in the agency’s history.

The Los Angeles Fire Department also donated “surplus equipment and gear” to Ukraine in 2022, according to a press release from the department.

“What is our city, what is our county doing to try to help people understand what happens if these winds destroy our — our town and community? There was nobody, nobody on the TV out here in L.A. except [Democratic California Gov.] Gavin Newsom doing his dog and pony show talking about what we’re supposed to do when this happens,” Claypool said. “Nobody had done anything to remove soil and vegetation for the last year. Nobody tested the water pipes. This — this was not brain surgery. It was predicted. These winds were predicted.”
