I think you are being a bit harsh. California is such a great place that screwing it up is a really hard job.

These folks have worked long and hard on this goal and they have succeeded beyond anyone's wildest expectations. <[p> Their compensation is commensurate with their proven ability to fully implement the Bass vision for LA and California.

[ChicagoConservative27]

Silly me. 😂

Corruption, corruption, corruption.

Over a hundred LAFD fire trucks are out of service because mechanics were fired and overtime was cut for those who remained.

Probably not enough diversity in the mechanics pool.

It's going to be interesting to observe how this all plays out.

Typically, the wealthy elites are safely insulated in their gilded palaces from the suffering amongst the peasantry inflicted by the politicians and policies they support.

It's different this time. Their gilded palaces have been reduced to ash heaps.

So she’s not that stupid after all?
Still no sight of any ethics or morality. But “NOT STUPID”.

There was a report that fire trucks from out of state had to pass California emissions standards before they were allowed to get to L.A. You know, to protect the air quality.

Twenty years of clean air initiatives that have been totally erased by this fire.

California authorities claim these trucks were given routine safety inspections as they had just been driven across hundreds of interstate miles, which kinda makes sense except that California is governed by retards, so who the hell really knows.

And just how and why would a fire truck need a ‘routine safety inspection’ after traveling on an interstate? Were California fire trucks going to L.A. stopped for ‘routine safety inspection’?

[butlerweave]

Bass should be investigated
