The East Bay Times reports: “Brown formally requested the declaration for the series of storms striking the state between Jan. 3 and Jan. 12.” He noted that “heavy rains, winds and snow, particularly in Northern California, left eight people dead and knocked out power to an estimated 1 million Californian homes and businesses.”

Brown’s request comes as Gov. Brown has challenged the Trump administration on climate change, immigration, Obamacare, and other issues.

make any aid contingent on Brown getting on TV and publicly announcing that California will enforce all immigration laws, and apologize for being such a total jackass.

Ah, here we go, the Blanco/Landrieu maneuver, asking for help as though DJT hasn't even heard of the situation. The man employs hundreds of engineers; I can guarantee you he's been watching this for days, like maggief has for us.

Brown and Holder are going to 'Donald Trump hates black people victims TBA'.

You're goin down, Moonbeam.

DJT should help if asked. Some things, even idiocy, transcend politics. Lives and peoples’ welfare are in danger.

Take the money they were going to use to launch their own California Global Warming satellite, and use it to help out with disaster relief.

Brown has been so busy spending money like there’s no tomorrow that he forgot to put any aside for the inevitable rainy day. Yeah, Trump may bail you out, Jer, but you’re gonna have to make a few changes.

Now, about those sanctuary cities...
