Mayor Karen Bass stands in a stunned silence for nearly 2 minutes as a reporter asks her if she regrets cutting Los Angeles' Fire Department budget by nearly $20 million and being absent as her citizens' homes burned down.

Shame? It will soon come out that the J6 incident was a staged rogue government operation, with high-level bureaucrats colluding with some elements of Congress to plan it. Do you think these miscreants have the slightest bit of regret over the killings of Ashli Babbitt and Roxanne Boylston? Over the multiple suicides and destroyed families? Over the totally innocent imprisoned with ruined lives? No they don’t regret a bit of it but they will regret the legal implications of their conduct as the truth unfolds after Jan 20.

Idiots need to stop electing these jackasses just because of their skin color, genitals or low I.Q.s.

No worries. She has the correct ‘D’ after her name so she will coast to an easy re-election. All is well in La-La land.

She was just obstinate.

Yup. With a heaping helping of the "The Royal We does not acknowledge peasants who have the cheek to question Us." vibe from her.

what technology makes houses burn, but leaves
trees, gates, etc. unburnt????
this is as "normal" as all the fire insurance stopped,
and then all the water for the fire dept being REMOVED?

You can count on Commie Karen making calls to have that Reporter disappear. I think times are a changing and nobody is listening to what she and her type has to say, even in L.A.

I’ll be interested to see if the owner of the L.A. Times whom is trying to pull his paper towards the middle a little bit goes scorched earth on the politicians?

The wife bought me a gourmet make your own Popcorn kit as a stocking stuffer. I think I’ll be using it soon.

This is all part of Joe Pedo’s Scorched Earth Exit from the White House. That lousy bass turd needs to be locked up. This is the DemocRATs’ retribution against Americans for electing President Trump. I hate friggin DemocRATS. They are the most evil scum on the planet. They, and the Colombian Coffee Beaner, Juan Merchan and his little RAT Princess, are the Greatest Threats to America and Americans. Bass Turds. I’m not a fan of California but I hate seeing what is happening to the people because of their lousy choices of politicians.

There once was a mayor named Bass
Whose heart was as black as her @$$
She cut firemen’s pay
In a most careless way
Now her city is a burned out mass

There is no conspiracy here. Take a fire science class if you don’t understand how unpredictable a fire storm is and what it does.

She is neither stunned nor obstinant - she is waiting for her handler(s) to issue the next reaction/response. From Braindead Biden to Giggling Heels Up Harris to the Mayors and Police Chiefs of all major cities all of these Politicians(D) are empty, brainwashed puppets. There should be a deck of cards with every member of the WEC assigned a card and bounty - you can’t get rid of the lice and fleas until you have dealt with the rats.

She might have been drunk or high.

What I saw was a democrat who knows she can commit the worst atrocities, and she will be easily reelected. So she didn’t care and just stood there.

She is stunned and at a loss for words as she discovers that gaslighting won’t work and she contemplates the damage to her political future.

Round the clock crisis management strategy sessions are now underway to identify a scapegoat that the media will be willing to sell.

I don’t think she is stunned. Rather, she just refuses to open her mouth because she may say something stupid. Or she has been ordered by Newsome to keep her mouth shut.

You just know that Newsome will back her and her DEI fire chief to the hilt.

Stupid Bass never thought her refusal to answer a reporter's salient questions would be seen by millions.

At least saying nothing for 2 minutes is better than lying for 2 minutes.
