Millions of Dollars of Los Angeles Fire Trucks Ditched in Junkyard
City and state Budget Cuts made the fire trucks unfit for fire service
Breitbart News reported a Newsweek story:
<><>Newsom cut $100 million from California’s fire prevention budget in 2024,
<><>Newsom endangered the area now being affected by the raging wildfires.
<><>globe trotter LA Mayor Karen Bass also cut almost $20 million from the city’s budget
<><>Bass deliberately cut “fire services” for the current fiscal year.
<><>a leaked memo showed Bass had another $45 million cut in the works.
So LA junked millions of dollars worth of fire trucks. So what; there’s a whole lot to be grateful for.
LA wildfires caused the loss of a lot of buildings, businesses, thousands of pricey mansions, historic enclaves, 23 dead citizens, men who know how to fight fires, billions in tax revenue.
But on the bright side, it gained a lot of lesbian fire chiefs being paid 6-figure salaries, plus perks.
The LA/FD lost a lot but its DEI hires know how to actively pursue diversity, inclusion, and all that important pronoun stuff.
They now have a Mayor, an honorary citizen of a Third World country, who is the most hated person on the planet, and a Governor who’s looking for a job.
