Gavin Newsom Reveals Firefighters from Mexico Coming to Assist with Eaton Fire
Breitbart ^ | January 11, 2025 | Elizabeth Weibel

Posted on 01/11/2025 9:13:51 PM PST by Morgana

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) revealed that firefighters from Mexico were coming to assist with the ongoing Eaton Fire.

In a post on X, Newsom expressed gratefulness for Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s “support” as California officials “work to suppress the Los Angeles wildfires.” Newsom has received criticism from California residents who have demanded to know what he is going to do in response to the wildfires.

Newsom added that the firefighters coming from Mexico would be “joining more than 10,000 personnel already on the ground.”

“Firefighters from Mexico are en route to the #EatonFire — joining more than 10,000 personnel already on the ground,” Newsom wrote in his post. “California is deeply grateful for President @ClaudiaShein’s support as we work to suppress the Los Angeles wildfires.”

As Breitbart News previously reported, Newsweek found that Newsom cut $100 million from California’s fire prevention budget in 2024, prior to the Los Angeles area being affected by the wildfires.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) also cut almost $20 million “from the city’s budget for fire services for the current fiscal year.”

I assume the MEX fire crews are on a HB-1 visa? LA city is cutting the fire budget so this is a good choice over Indian and Chinese fire fighters.

Is Mexico onboard b/c Biden’s shelling out tax dollars to cover the costs of fighting the fire?

Fire crews from other states are fighting the fire in Los Angeles.

Yet, Newsom didn’t have his picture taken with them.

FDNY offered to help and were turned away. I think some other American fire departments have offered and been refused as well.

Several municipalities in N. Texas are sending fire/EMT crews to assist.

Search them for drugs and make sure they go back.

His way of pandering and scoring political points. Also he probably has some sick and twisted vision of uniting sanctuary CA with Marxist Claudia Sheinbaum’s agenda as some sort of buffer to Trump.

The only thing California really needs to do is force all the illegals and cross-dressers residing in the state to join the fire-fighting workers. If nothing else they could use them to form a break to stop the fires from spreading, kind of like the Palis use civilians as shields.

Biden predicted the LA fires four years ago. That’s why he let in 10 million “firefighters” from Mexico, South America and China. He just forgot to use them.

I know departments from Arizona are there. What about the federal government are they involved? I’m sorry I don’t know the answer to this, but I haven’t heard anything in reporting.

DO THEY HAVE TO PASS AN INSPECTION IN SACRAMENTO TO PARTICIPATE LIKE THE FIRE TRUCKS FROM OUT OF STATE???

NEWSCUM DEMANDING THAT FIRE TRUCKS FROM OUT OF STATE MUST PASS AN INSPECTION-—ONLY IN SACRAMENTO-—BEFORE THEN CAN TRAVEL TO LA TO FIGHT FIRES.

So-—IF LAS VEGAS SENDS EQUIPMENT-—THEY HAVE TO DRIVE 400 MILES NORTH FOR A MANDATORY INSPECTION AT DOT HEADQUARTERS AND THEN DRIVE 500 miles back SOUTH to LA???? 900 MILES OF TIME & EXPENSE.

THE INSPECTION IS A -— wait for it: “ SMOG INSPECTION “ .

IF THEY FAIL THE INSPECTION-—THEY CANNOT GO ANYWHERE UNTIL THEY CAN MAKE “REPAIRS” & PASS INSPECTION.

IF THEY PASS THE INSPECTION-—FIGHT THE FIRES-—THEY HAVE TO GO BACK To SACRAMENTO FOR RE-INSPECTION BEFORE THEY CAN RETURN TO HOME BASE.

IF 2nd inspection fails -—Have to repair to ‘smog test standards’ before being allowed to leave.

IF I WERE GOVERNOR OF OREGON OR NEVADA OR ARIZONA-—I would get a nationwide press conference up & tell the entire country about this. THEN I WOULD TELL NEWSCUM TO POUND SAND.
