Several large wildfires continue to tear through northern Texas, including one that has grown into the largest blaze in state history.
The Smokehouse Creek Fire that ignited in Hutchinson County remained active as of Thursday morning, having burned an estimated 1,075,000 acres and was just 3% contained, according to the Texas A&M Forest Service. The flames, which cover an area larger than the size of Rhode Island, have spread across state lines, with 1,050,000 acres burned in Texas and 25,000 acres burned in Oklahoma.

"Burn it down" is a Cloward-Piven tactic. This will be the summer of the torch of the left.
I fear you are correct.
Remember the scenes of Nazi soldiers burning the countryside, poisoning wells and water sources, and corrupting the local governments and police.
Well, I suggest we act now. If we don't it's all over. Where you live, what you eat, how you travel, Healthcare decisions, education, banking, energy use, raising your family, and who represents you in the law, are all assigned conditions. None of those things will be your liberties. Like it or die.
One of the worst times here in the Panhandle, tall dead grass and high winds.
The Texas Panhandle is the location of many windfarm electric plants. Wonder if those are holding up.
Largest? I have read of fires ignited in North Colorado that swept south clear to the Palo Duro Canyon area in Texas.
Back in 1957 Public Service Adds warned that there were so many wild fires in the 48 States each year that if put together they would cover the entire state of Louisiana!
I’ve seen lots of burn areas in NE Oklahoma along major roads started from cigarettes, in the late winter and early spring.
