This is going to hang over Governor Gavin Newsom’s head when he runs for president in 2028 because now the entire country knows that he is completely incompetent and can’t manage California, so why should we allow him to manage the entire country? Donald Trump told him to his face a few years ago, I think this was from 2018, what he needs to do in order to dramatically minimize these kinds of hazards from happening, but obviously his recommendations fell on deaf ears. They also have enough water, unlike Los Angeles, where most of the fire hydrants literally ran out because of the democrat incompetence.

And that’s the one thing the liberal media doesn’t want to talk about, especially when it comes to this, since it’s such a horrifying disaster. Here is Scott Jennings on CNN, who is, they’re kind of token conservative guy, it was a lot of the network, it makes some very good points, trying to bring it up, the democrats enrolling idiots and was immediately shut down. You might have recalled a new story from last year, there was some interest in the fire departments and the firefighters in California. And the interest was, there were too many white men who were firefighters and we need to have a program in California to make sure we don’t have enough white men as firefighters.

So in case you haven’t heard, the city council in Los Angeles is very proud that recently they appointed the first female and lesbian double diversity as the fire chief, who then made her top priority, not to try to prevent disasters like this from happening, but to increase diversity in the department. I’m super inspired. She took time out of her already busy schedule to tell us about her vision for the department’s future. To prevent disasters from happening because California is known for its fires of insurance companies are pulling out so people can’t even get insurance.

One that includes a three-year strategic plan to increase diversity. People ask me, well, what number are you looking for? So I’m not looking for a number. It’s never enough. Out of 3,300 city firefighters, only 115 are women right now. She’s already looking at ways to change that. I’m sorry, but that’s probably 115 too many. Here’s what a major Los Angeles real estate developer and former mayoral candidate had to say about the situation. Former LA mayoral candidate and real estate developer Rick Caruso criticizing the city’s response to the windstorm and fires. He says officials should have been more prepared.

Really issue to me is twofold. We’ve had decades to go remove the brush in these hills that spread so quickly. And the second is we’ve got to have water. And my understanding is the reservoir was not refilled in time and in a timely manner to keep the hydrants go. So that’s a failure, whether on DWB’s part or another city agency. But this is basic stuff. This isn’t high science here. Yes, basic stuff that Donald Trump warned Gavin Newsom to his face about a few years ago. And again, back in October on the Joe Rogan podcast, they said, we have no water.

I said, do you have a drought? No, we don’t have a drought. I said, why don’t you have no water? Because the water isn’t allowed to flow down. It’s got a natural flow from Canada all the way up north. More water than they could ever use. And in order to protect a tiny little fish, the water up north gets routed into the Pacific Ocean. Millions and millions of gallons of water gets poured. I could have water for all of that land, water for your forests. You know, your forests are dry as a bone.

Yeah, dangerous. That water could be routed. You know, you could have everything. Not only dangerous, billions of dollars a year they spend on forest fires. But hey, who cares if you don’t have any water in your fire hydrants throughout your city when you have DEI, Democrats Enrolling Idiots in the fire department. We are hosting our new employee orientation. And our focus is to teach our new employees for them to understand cultural competency, identify implicit and unconscious bias, and be aware of the importance of us having a diverse and inclusive workforce.

What about the importance of having water in the fire hydrants, lady? I hate to even ask this question, but the president-elect chose to attack you, blame you for that. One can’t even respond to it. I mean, people are literally fleeing. People have lost their lives. Kids lost their schools. Families completely torn asunder. Churches burned down. Yes, and you’re largely responsible for that, sir. But hey, just stand in front of a burning building during a live shot on CNN and pretend like you’re there to save people. And here’s the mayor of Los Angeles refusing to answer questions from the media for several minutes in a row.

I won’t play the whole clip. You’ll just get the gist of it. But this clip goes on for over two and a half minutes. Do you regret cutting the fire department budget by millions of dollars, Madam Mayor? Have you nothing to say today? Have you absolutely nothing to say to the citizens today? Elon Musk says that you’re utterly incompetent. Are you considering your position? Madam Mayor, have you absolutely nothing to say to the citizens today who are dealing with this disaster? No apology for them. Here’s comedian Adam Carolla testifying in front of Congress back in 2017 about how he tried to be a firefighter many years ago in L.A., but was turned down because there were just too many white people in the department.

Jeez, I want to talk about my white privilege so badly. I graduated North Hollywood High with a 1.7 GPA. I could not find a job. I walked to a fire station in North Hollywood. I was 19. I was living in the garage of my family home. My mom was on welfare and food stamps. And I said, can I get a job as a fireman? And they said, no, because you’re not black, Hispanic or woman. We’ll see in about seven years. And I went to a construction site and dug ditches and picked up garbage for the next seven years.

I got a letter in the mail sent to my father’s house saying, your time has come to do the written exam for the L.A. fire department. I took it and I was standing in line and I had a young woman of color standing behind me in line. And I said, just out of curiosity, when did you sign up to become a fireman? Because I did it or person seven years ago. And she said, Wednesday. That is an example of my white privilege. So there’s literally a seven year waiting list because there were just too many white men who are trying to become firefighters in L.A.

But thankfully, Joe Biden has less than two weeks left to continue to embarrass us as a nation. Here he is at a press conference yesterday in California with Governor Newsom pretending to know what it is that’s happening. And then he says this. But the good news is I’m a great grandfather, as of today. Okay. Congratulations, sir. But this is not the time nor the place. Look at Gavin Newsom even looking at him like, dude, what the hell are you talking about, man? But even in a terrible situation like this, I will do my best to try to bring some levity to the situation.

I hate covering tragedy news. I would much rather just mock liberal lunatics and try to have a good time with the craziness that we’re experiencing in the media. And so thankfully, this guy stumbled across a live feed on Fox 11 in L.A. Why is there a fire happening right now? There are multiple fires that are taking place. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I don’t know how it started. We don’t know how it started there. You know, you know, he may be on to something. There’s an old story in the Bible about some twin cities called Sodom and Gomorrah that many people have forgotten all about.
