Los Angeles On Fire

[Colonoscopy]

I think a lot of our focus on urban firefighting has been misplaced. It's the arial attack that most quickly controls the growth of the fire.

The fires exploded during a time of extremely high winds that meant any attack via air had to be delayed.

This thread is just a complete toilet of MAGA misinformation and nonsense. And it's absolutely disgusting.

Our country is in serious trouble now that they can flood the zone with bullshit and easily convince a majority of voters what every problem is and the reason for it. And I never thought until the Trump era that I lived in such a stupid country.

The fires in LA are a natural disaster, politicians had absolutely no way of stopping or even ameliorating the situation save for measures taken beforehand that the assholes slamming Newsom, Bass, and Democrats would never ever support or tolerate.

Eff you people, eff you to hell. Scum.

Lighten up Francis.

Because he’s a both sides moron. One can only explain things to morons so many times. After that they become stupid twats.

Both sides is real. It always has been. Obviously to varying degrees given the situation and when it occurred, but it won't ever change. You can find sin all over politics. Would you not agree?

The MAGA right are the dumbest partisan warriors I've come across

Google arrests and indictments by presidential administration and get back to me with this both sides bullshit. I’m tired of hearing that Democrats and Republicans are the same thing. They aren’t. Not since Reagan…though Clinton did get a bj.

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

So, how are the fires going? Isn't that what we're all so concerned about?

It doesn't matter enough to me. And it shouldn't matter to you either. We can agree to disagree about "both sides" if you want.

Made another thread for that since MAGA posters started spamming it with partisan attacks

I saw it. You had to know it wouldn't last though. Those guys only seek to create static.

At least there's a silver lining to these fires...

The silver lining is that the Californians and the country are witnessing incompetence on a grand scale and tax dollar mismanagement. Dem politicians are pointing fingers at each other.

I look forward to seeing more information that will come to light. I look forward to them doing some more back stabbing. Can’t wait to see all the news interviews of people who live there bashing their politicians. Popcorn time.

We are only spiking the football because America is realizing that entire States run by democrats can have massive problems caused by said Democrats. It happens in cities a lot more often. Big cities tend to have Democrat run governments. We Republicans are definitely spiking the football after that big win with Trump but we certainly are not thrilled with all the loss of life and loss of property... And we think we know how to fix it but we are excited to try in the future to fix it but for now it's a bunch of grief and horrible death and loss of property... I don't think people are actually spiking the football like you think they are. Now, could they be saying see I told you so... Yeah I admit people are doing that.

So when Florida/Texas gets walloped again what do we do? North Carolina floods? I've never in my life even thought of celebrating a tragedy because of politics. But I guess that's what separates me and your kind.

Who voted for these fires?

Lighten up Francis.

He is absolutely correct

Therefore, as LA burned, the fire trucks went through smog testing.

Santa Monica Observer posted:​

“I just heard from my brother,” tweets Parker Caldwell, “a firefighter in Central Oregon, that the 60 firetrucks the state sent to support the LA fires are being held up in Sacramento for ’emissions testing.’ They likely won’t pass inspection and won’t be able to help… What a joke.”

“Update from our EF&R strike team leader – crews are going through inspection in Davis, California. They have been assigned to the #PalisadeFire, which is currently 6% contained. Safe travels to our team! #CaliforniaWildfires #wafirefighters”

Yup.

Follow-up tweet from the guy who started the rumor. You ARE the reason FoxNews exists. ...just gobbles up everything that pops up on your phone.

 

[Hans81]

lol…you’re not worth my time. Dr Fauci…now there’s a joke. 😉

 

[Hans81]

Right. Fox online as a news source isn't terrible. They're biased in what they choose to cover, but they'll do what they did in that article. You can use them for information. (although not usually my last stop)

The worst are the talking heads on Fox.

What do you think of the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC?

I never watch them. All I can say is Tucker Carlson spewed more crazy bullshit than anyone on network TV.

So you're saying that you watched Tucker Carlson on a regular basis?

This was written nine YEARS after Californians overwhelmingly approved a $7.5 billion bond issue for, uhh, you know, like some water storage stuff. This would be hilarious if it weren’t so tragic.

“No dams have been built, that’s true. But one will be and two will be expanded. And hundreds of other smaller projects have been completed.”

“Other smaller projects” meaning wholesale grifting of taxpayer money on a grand scale, I presume. What a sick, freaking joke.

Have no Prop. 1 water projects been built in California? No, but they are moving slowly

Republicans last week blasted Democrats for alleged inaction on the 2014 bond act, Proposition 1, making some good points while being off base on their basic premise, columnist George Skelton writes.

It’s so sad to watch how everything becomes a wedge issue or cudgel. But, Newsom triggers Trump so the victims of the fire are now pawns

 

[lucas80]

Any actual updates on the fire in here or just pissing and moaning about who is at fault because of your dumb ass politics?

Yeah, the Palisades Fire might jump the 405 and find a lot of fresh buildings to burn, including the campus of UCLA.
Hopefully the accumulation of resources will start to turn the tide.

 

[lucas80]

BoTH sIdZ white knighting for Ted Cruz is the least surprising thing in this thread. Like a sitting US Senator would have no value in raising money and marshaling resources? Instead he packed up and ran in a display of petty self interest.
The you had Senator Foghorn Leghorn (LA), after the attack in NOLA. Yeah, God forbid we expect leaders to lead.

 

[Whiskeydeltadeltatango]

Latest info I can find says the Palisades fire is roughly 14% contained.

They have another day of little wind, that should help.

You think US Senators are involved in the chain of command for emergency management? You’re smarter than that right?
Also, if “white knighting” him is stating facts and calling him a douchebag I question your reading skills.
