This week’s death toll from fires in Oregon, Washington and California now stands at 18,

Considering all the rural communities that were torched and the acreage, that's pretty low. The main reason is except for a brief period there were not wind-driven. The bulk of the acreage was California with lightning fires with little wind, but lot of starts. Too many starts to get control of it even with very slow spread.

How many of those fires were fires started by arsonist,...

Some, but almost none of the 100's of California fires. All lightning.

This will get ugly. Firefighters ordered to stand down, just like the police.

If I had to make a bet, I'd wager that the firemen would obey no such order. Letting people burn to death isn't the same as letting a bunch of spoiled kids run wild.

Oregon governor Kate Brown had a nice conversation with President Trump where he assured the governor of full help from the federal government. Which they are now providing.
Governor Brown stated at the end of the conversation President Trump told her “God bless Oregon”

I was shocked to hear the governor actually repeat that.

What about Colorado? Rocky Mountain National Park was on fire the other day and hasn’t been before within a stone’s throw of Denver in many years.

Has GOD unleashed his "terrible swift sword" on Portland?

Will LOT be turned into a pillar of salt?

America is standing-by to see what's next.

100% fake news from CBS, Der Berliner. This article is getting pounded on Twitter and FB.

Thanks for posting this. I didn’t want to read the linked article at CBS. But this was shocking enough to scroll through the comments. The biggest shock is the Governor of Oregon reportedly had a call with the President in which she behaved with civility.

I didn’t read the article. I have more up to date info.

Fire Fighters concentrated on saving lives and rescue because the fires were so overwhelming.

The winds have died and they have shifted to fighting the fires.

Well, this shouldn’t be a problem for the governor or mayor.

Neither one had any problems with all the fires that blm and antifa were starting.

It’s just their freedom of expression, right?

Leftists have spent the past 3 months that fires are no big thing...
