Ba$$. Another ‘rat politician fleeing hard-working taxpayers. When it hits close to home they get upset.
Also, Patrick Soon-Shiong refused to endorse Kamala Harris. I think he bought the paper for her liberal daughter.
“Even Democrats are slamming LA mayor over wildfires”
They just want a different democrat to vote for.
how much of the trouble is in LA City?
In my opinion, these crooked politicians pocket the money and do nothing for the cities in which they are hired to run properly.
She went to Africa. Maybe she learned some voodoo that will save the city.
Celebrity lives matter!
Laundering money in Ghana, while LA burns.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, upon arrival at LAX was slapped in the face with a carp.
She wanted to go along with “defund the police” and factored that into her dream budget.
When citizens got angry over crime she let the police budget go on but cut funding for the LA Fire Department.
Now they say understaffed fire department is part of the problem today.
But hey, they got a lesbian fire chief!
radical leftists like Bass love to set things on fire and watch them burn
Communist community activist.
I don’t believe LA elections are real at this point.
She’s a dem apparatchik.
Her job is to go to Ghana for the Biden administration.
No clue how to be a mayor.
The county and state devise schemes for saving water, but not for storing water by using methods that would store a whole lot of water.
The "schemes" are designed for DEI (acronym for politically correct) appearances. An example (analogy) of that:
Los Angeles, CA mayor goes to the African nation of Ghana, in order to score politically correct points.
Basically, there is an organizational chart for being politically correct, and at the top of the [pyramid] chart [scheme], is: DEI.
In actual function: the complexities of what happens - an illustration would show that the bottom of a pyramid - the vast, fat, running about (or not moving at all), scrambling (or sloth), plus a lot of waste (think: Chicago aldermania kickbacks), and BlueSky/CNN/Hollywood-celebrity appearances . . . all have to be "decided" (and scheduled) BEFORE productive(?) action (or more sloth).

That said, the bulk of California will still blame:
- global warming
- NAZIs
- the insurance companies
- the utility companies
- gas
- Exxon
- Ronald Reagan
but fail to store water that it receives from heaven and "the heavens."

My friend is involved in the storing of water for the greater Los Angeles region. "They" have ideas for dumping floating balls on outdoor reservoirs, in order to block the sunlight and reduce evaporation.
"They" have ideas for creating reservoirs alongside current and future paved roadways. "They" have a lot of ideas about, how to make all that look pretty (his specialty).
But instead of proceeding at a productive pace, the output is like the Obama 3.0's administration (Biden-Harris) that could barely produce more than 1 of the Electric Vehicle Charging Facilities . . . because:
DEI (the acronym for being politically correct)
In California, there is so much of:
Do you know who I am?
in "having a conversation" and "engaging in dialog."
There is little time or effort made by DEI (the politically correct collective/collectivists) that would move toward an actual, practical goal.

I came up with an answer, years ago:
Using mining equipment. Approach the base area of a topical range/mountain, and at a slight down-angle, bore/drill as if going for the coal . . . but actually creating an out-of-the-sunlight water reservoir.
I wanted to use mining equipment, because I wanted to keep the people who know how to MAKE HARD STEEL employed - in order to maintain their talent:
They know how to make the really good, hard, steel. The stuff that will endure the task. The stuff that comes in handy, when our country needs the really, good, hard, steel.
Yet I also wanted to solve the water supply problem of California and other generally "dry' areas of the great southwest of our country.
But, as usual, one has to deal with DEI and the California (and other) eco-nuts, who "think:"
If the water goes into these underground reservoirs, then the water will not flow down "nature's streams!" Eeek!
In the leftwing mind, there is is a mechanical engineering problem:
An unwillingness to fathom (pun intended) that a volume can fill with water and then overflow . . . to the natural stream.
In order for the left wing to acknowledge the science, the left wing would (gasp!) surrender The Drought Panic and other panic methodolgy that the left needs to coerce votes.
To wit: "The Solution" must come from the DEI hive. "The Solution" that keeps up appearances.

Insert here, current date (01/08/2025): photo of north-south running streets of Altadena, CA, this date - notice the deep drainage ditches alongside the streets, where amazing amounts of water descend from the mountain range . . . and its base, immediately to the north.
Where a whole lot of the water needed, could be stored.
Ba$$ is celebrating Kwanzaa in Ghana, so shut up honkies.
Slam the arsonists
MANY TALENTED & EXPERIENCED L A FIREFIGHTERS WERE FIRED WHEN THEY REFUSED THE COVID VAX.
GOT DEI REPLACEMENTS
If she was in Africa during the fire, it’s racist to criticize her?
How many LA county fire fighters were fired for not getting the Covid 19 shot?
I heard something like 2300 were fired and not replaced for not getting the “c19 vaccine)
