Once again, the NYT fits the news to print in its scandal sheet!

Using this catastrophe to further the hoax is evil on another level.

Nice try NYTs. Liberal policies contributed to this destruction more than anything else by a long shot.

Insane Green Wokeism.

LOOK AT THE GOOD SIDE OF IT! The Smelt fish are doing well now the reservoirs and dams once used for fire suppression, have been destroyed and drained. and the brush was for nesting birds and ground animals so the Greenies could go out and commune with Mother Nature!
Now Mother Nature has bit them in the butt big time. And where is the LA mayor> In Ghana Africa weeping at the slave pens, wailing at the Door of no Return and blubbering about how terrible the US is. But when her tax payer paid vacation is over she will hop on an air conditioned jet and return to the land she hates.

” I read somewhere that the LAPD refused to press charges against a man caught red-handed starting a fire.”

They said they didn’t have probable cause. Caught him with a propane torch.

Hockey-stick wielding Penn State Prof Michael Mann has now officially been caught with his pants around his ankles, BITH unwilling to provide his raw so-called “climate change” data for independent scientific scrutiny, and thus pitifully unable to prove reputational harm by his interlocutor Mark Steyn despite a decade or so of accusations and litigation.

Can we please just call all this a sham, and move on?

The latest, left wing mantra: “Non functioning Fire hydrants are caused by climate change.”

“California has focused on fortifying communities against wildfires.”

That’s another blatant lie. Nothing could be further from the truth... as has just been PROVEN by the ongoing LA fires. And no, it has nothing to do with “”climate change””. So sick of the leftist BS.

Why is California, the state best equipped to deal with wildfires, seemingly unable to prevent blazes from consuming entire chunks of the country’s second-largest city?

Answer: leftist Democrats

I’ve said this before. If the winds you are fighting against have “names” and people know them…then this is not a recent phenomenon. The winds have been tearing through these places for ten thousand years or more.

The difference isn’t “climate change”…it’s people and poor land management.
