Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass rejected an offer from the New York Fire Department to help battle deadly wildfires scorching the Golden State, the New York Post reported.
As of Friday morning, the California fires have burned more than 10,000 homes and buildings in the Los Angeles area. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recently agreed to pay for more firefighters after the state reported it was beyond capacity.
New York City Fire Commissioner Robert Tucker extended the offer in "recent days," according to the report. JetBlue agreed to pay for the firefighters' fares to the city.
Mexico is sending crews to help contain the Eaton Fire, California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Friday via X.
"California is deeply grateful for President @ClaudiaShein's support as we work to suppress the Los Angeles wildfires," Newsom wrote. "Our partnership and shared commitment to helping communities in need is greatly valued."

Firefighters from Mexico who will then mysteriously disappear but not for the border.
Hoping there’s enough anger on CA right now to have them dragged, or at least jailed.
I noticed the dike Marxist lost that smug look she always had on her face. I smell fear.
I’d bet their trucks will be waged on through without an inspection unlike the ones from Oregon.
Newsom is hiring massive numbers of illegals armed with string trimmers to cut all the brush.
You suppose we can get Mexico to donate fire fighting supplies to L.A.? After all, L.A. donated all their surplus fire fighting supplies to Ukraine - leaving fire deparment short of supplies.
She is an idiot for turning down help.
Why? New York is a blue state. Their Governor is a Democrat.
Did they do a DEI check on any of the firefighters from Oregon or Canada?
Seems like the ladies are bringing in the real men when things heat up.
If I was a firefighter I’d refuse to go. California made this problem. They’ve spent decades badmouthing everyone else and loudly proclaimed their supposed superiority. Let them handle it themselves. It’s their problem.
As of Friday AM,fires have burned more than 10,000 homes and buildings
in the LA area. Shockingly FEMA agreed to pay for more firefighters.
But.....
LA Mayor Karen Bass stupidly rejected the New York Fire Dept’s offer to help
battle deadly wildfires scorching the taxpayers of her city, the NY Post reported...
Plus, you know the press conference will be the idiots in charge celebrating the great job THEY did - when they burned their money on DEI nonsense and chased of the qualified men (COVID shot firings; diversity push lunacy).
My cousin posted a prayer request today for her son-in-law. He’s being deployed to California to aid in fighting the fires. They live in Idaho.
Why? New York is a blue state. Their Governor is a Democrat.
Karen Bass's LA is a cesspool filled with graft, corruption, fraud and incompetence.
Bass and her cronies are making bank off of all the crises they have manufactured to provide pretext to become service providers to loot tax payer funds as the middle (insert pronoun here) who dole out the welfare dole money.
When you are running such a fraud riddled the last thing you want is outsiders looking inside your operation. LA is so corrupt that the California Assembly has had to pass legislation forbidding any scrutiny.
And NY City workers have a very well trained nose for sniffing out graft and corruption which NY officials have refined to an art form.
Mayor Bass would be embarrassed to have other big city Democrats graft pros learn how crude and unsophisticated her grifting and grafting is.
Prayers up for your hero of a cousin! 🛡️🔥🚿💦
Firefighters help their own, like cops and EMTs - they won’t give a horse dump about rich leftists.
There is too much Irish muscle in FDNY for Bass to allow them in to show up her DEI hired local departments.
“Why? New York is a blue state. Their Governor is a Democrat.”
With more winds on the way, she should take all the help she can get.
She’s stupid.
OK, we DON’T accept help from the hardworking American men of the New York Fire Department, but we DO accept help from Mexico!
Democrats: Always putting foreigners first.
