A Los Angeles fire chief has blasted the city's mayor Karen Bass for 'failing' fire crews and communities devastated by the ongoing wildfires.

Fire Chief Kirstin Crowley took aim at the city's leadership during an interview with KTTV on Friday, admitting it had failed those affected by the fires and prevented the LA Fire Department from effectively doing its job.

'We are screaming to be properly funded to make sure that our firefighters can do their jobs so that we can serve the community,' Crowley said, adding that there were 'huge gaps' in firefighters' ability to tackle the blazes on the ground.

Never heard of Spencer Pratt.

I think the only people who should be allowed to sue the CA government are the ones who voted Republican. The Democrat voters literally invited this destruction.

It’ll go up several times the 10 reported as they go to door.

Was traveling 4-5 football fields a minute and some folks were in the homes battling the blaze. Lots of bodies not yet found.

“Who’s Spencer Pratt?”

Skimpy actor / Director resume mostly reality TV. His Wife is a little more known, actress Heidi Montag.

“ It’ll go up several times the 10 reported as they go to door.”

Same as the 100 reported dead around Asheville. There are thousands unaccounted for. Shameful!

The environment is a thousand times worse than it was had they just used their resources the way it was originally intended.

Fire Chief Kirstin Crowley now must run for Mayor and enter the political fray.

And there soon will be an election to fill the Mayor’s position. Bass won’t last.

I have to laugh.

I was wondering whether De Niro’s home in the Malibu Cove Community is still standing.

Trump haters are literally being burned out.
