The Palisades and Eaton fires have destroyed neighborhoods and left tens of thousands evacuated, with a state of emergency in effect. At least four fires are burning out of control. A brush fire broke out Wednesday evening in the Hollywood Hills west of Runyon Canyon.

Five people have died in the Eaton Fire near Altadena, which left a devastating trail of scorched homes as it spreads rapidly through foothill neighborhoods.

The Palisades Fire that began Tuesday in the Pacific Palisades, sparked by a backyard fire, has destroyed an as-yet-uncountable number of homes and forced thousands to flee continues to burn, with new evacuation warnings issued for Malibu.

More than 365,000 homes are without power.

After blaming Donald Trump, Gov. Newsom said local people have to figure out why there is no water in the hydrants.
Actor Zachary Levi: We need to hold our politicians accountable

Gov. Newsom clearly knows the fires are worse under his leadership. Mr. Levi said we are letting water run off into the ocean. He doesn’t know if there is almost something even criminal in this. There needs to be some accountability in our leadership, he said.

James Woods was brought to tears over losing everything. It wasn’t only a home; it was his neighbors, the town, and things he held dear.

Donald Trump plans to force Gavin Newsom to act.

Apocalypse Now

Mike Shellenberger wrote on Twitter in 2020, “We have 100 years of fire suppression that led to a huge accumulation of fuel loads… As a result, our forests and woodlands are not healthy, and we’re getting more catastrophic fire behavior than we would otherwise.”

He quoted from Mother Jones, who didn’t write too bad an article, “Drought, disease, and insects have left 100 million dead trees browning across California, and in some places, 90 percent of the trees have died.”

As he said, “Even left-wing magazines in California were starting to cover forest fires in a sane and scientific way until @GavinNewsom @KamalaHarris started politicizing them.”

Author Shellenberger was on Tucker then and explained that forest fires have nothing to do with climate change.

Shellenberger, the President of Environmental Progress, told Carlson, “The media coverage has been irresponsible. I’m sorry to see President Obama make even more extreme statements than we’ve seen out of Mother Jones…”

For his book Apocalypse Now, he “interviewed most of the top California scientists. And what they emphasize is there are two kinds of forests, one of which we don’t have enough fires in. We needed more of the prescribed burns or controlled burns. We haven’t been doing that for 120 years, and so the wood field has been building up.  That’s why the fires are so intense. That’s why there’s so much smoke in San Francisco.”

“And there’s another kind of fire, the shrubland fires, and we want fewer fires in. And that’s mostly to do with more people and more electrical wires, which they have failed to maintain for many decades because we’ve been focused on other things like building renewables.”

Is there no middle road?

He’s right even when it seems impossible.

How can any rational people vote for a relative of Nancy Pelosi to be governor? Bass is a obama protogee and took money to fund the illegals. She and newsom need to be introduce to the firing squad.

Bs this was started by arsonist, homeless or other bad actors. Over 2 days you can see the fire circles they created. Insurance was already and issue due to Gavin’s negligence!!

How about we hold him accountable for his actions like all politicians and take his money for those that need it from his poor decisions. This way like his aunt Pelosi they don’t always win and are never liable for their decisions!

“…The Palisades Fire that began Tuesday in the Pacific Palisades, sparked by a backyard fire…”

Do we know who’s backyard ? Who did that ?

Was it negligence ?
Were they too drunk, did they fall asleep, did they let children tend to the fire?

If the person who caused that fire was careless, they should now be on suicide watch.
