You Can’t Make This Up:
<><>LA County Fire Dept Donated Fire fighting Equipment to Ukraine
<><>Biden’s USAID State Dept Funded 16 Ukrainian Fire Departments

LA’s raging fires have already claimed two lives and destroyed 1,000’s of acres and homes, as firefighters face unprecedented challenges, such as water shortages from dry hydrants. Tax paid equipment sent to Ukraine was needed to bolster these firefighting efforts.

Demented Joe Biden’s USAID tax dollars funded 16 Ukrainian Fire Depts
<><>with protective gear, motor pumps,
<><>chainsaws, rescue motor cutters,
<><>rechargeable spotlights, fire extinguishers,
<><>and hydraulic rescue tools.

The lesbian LA fire chief, govt power and water “officials” rake in massive salaries $700
and $800k per annum, plus perks, and all that “accidentally” falls into their bank accounts.

That’s not the problem. Sending useful equipment to Ukraine can only be criticized because of the amount expended; setting them up with firefighting equipment was a good thing to do.

The problem was that California did not set up it’s own firefighting systems to be effective. California’s firefighters were not give the people (LA cut the fire department budget), the equipment, the task focus (DEI was higher priority than putting capable people in place), or the infrastructure (especially water infrastructure) to do their own job. California’s laws (as of the last report I saw; this may be obsolete) forbade clearing brush and tinder from her forests, and from her power transmission lines.

What California’s government did for Ukraine, is the distraction. The problem is what California’s government did not do for California.
