If there were any justice in California (there isn't), she would be removed and investigated, and if evidence of malfeasance found, prosecuted for her crimes. There is no justice in California though. The worst that will happen to people like this is they lose their jobs and get even cushier gigs with other corrupt organizations.
What an embarrassment! Smart enough to catch a flight with phone , but not smart enough to understand cutting the fire budget 18 million after a record rain with California's history of fire just like this after rain ? THESE FOOLS ARE UNBELIEVABLE!
This was completely predictable, this is what you get combinging Progressive Liberalism and DEI , complete brainlessness and dysfunction. But... who voter for her? If you voted for her, I have no sympathy.
@@MiaEZI mean I live here a lot of people are really stupid and the last thing I’d expect from a progressive mayor is accountability and acknowledging failure. All of these water restrictions are why Altadena and palisades burned. Simple things like irrigation and the clearing of brush could have helped prevent some of this. This same issues is why NorCal and Oregon burned a year or 2 ago these people don’t ever do anything until it’s too late, it’s infuriating
She doesn't get a pass for this. That woman had the entire flight from Africa to prepare a statement to the devastated people of LA, in between drinks and naps and meals and trips to the loo. Plenty of time. Out of town on an LA rail.
I’m empathetic to the fires in LA but here are the facts. Feel free to fact check my post. LA Mayor Karen Bass left LA and went to Africa when the threat was announced. She’s still there and now her city burns after she cut $17M from the firefighters budget. Gov. Newsom did not authorize the tanker planes until the winds were too high for them to fly. The hydrants have run dry. All the rain they had over the last four years was not diverted to the reservoirs for future use. Instead it was allowed to run off into the San Joaquin River and into the ocean trying protect a fish (the delta smelt). And the state refuses to build more desalination plants to make more water. They need better leadership.
There was water from the storms last year; the atmospheric rivers filled up the reservoirs in Central California where LA gets its water. You don't have to worry about water in future years because toilet to tap is back. They're planning on running treated sewage through a treatment plant and delivering that water to the western part of the city. I'm guessing the problem in the Palisades is one of infrastructure. In winter months, the water department probably fills up the water tanks only partially because people don't use very much water and you don't want the water sitting in tank for an extended period. There probably wasn't enough tanks to meet fire demands when they're only partially filled. Basically, they need more water storage (water tanks) in the area.
Yeah, they're not going to do that. They had a chance to vote in a moderate Democrat, and even that wasn't good enough for them. Sure, without the illegals voting, Bass would have lost, but she still got enough real votes to steal it when it should have been a landslide that was too big to rig.
Unfortunately they demonstrate a cult like adherence to the liberal social orthodoxy. Their thought leaders will blame Trump, and they will get in line. It's as simple as that
THIS WOMAN IS A GLOBALIST PUPPET. ANGELINO'S....ANGELS....THE PEOPLE WHO DID THIS ARE NOT GOD'S ANGELS. THIS WOMAN WAS PART OF THE PLAN. THIS WAS PLANNED.
The ultimate DEI politician, this woman is a marxist leninist. Her hisrory is absolutely astounding and includes strong support for Castro in Cuba. She just came back from Ghana for the inauguration of a marxist president yet refused to attend Trump's. She never held a job in the private sector. Yet these are the people they are voting in on the west coast. There comes a point where you have nobody to blame but yourselves.
@ so was Biden who just gave his son 10 years of immunity…. Consensus is not always correct. At one time it was the consensus that the world was flat and it was the center of the universe.
Neh, but years of neglect and not updating water systems cutting funds and initiatives where the money disappears while making millions is definitely still a problem
Come on man stop with the rhetoric and conspiracy theories seriously. Imagine losing everything you care about or pictures of parents who passed that’s all you have left of them. If you are someone who spreads misinformation and hate, please try to focus on yourself and stop contributing to this shtstorm peanut gallery of negative comments. If you need likes so badly go the f outside and interact with other people IRL.
She is totally incompetent. What a pathetic person. "Support our firefighters on the frontline?" Really??!! Bass cut the fire department's budget by millions of dollars. How is that supporting them? Taking away their resources to do their jobs effectively.
This is what you get when you elect a social worker to an executive position. She is completely incompetent in her position and she is not a leader. Los Angeles missed its chance by not electing Rick Caruso.
It's not a natural disaster. A natural disaster cannot be prevented. This could. This is the natural consequence of the people's choice. The people chose to prioritize fish above human life. Los Angeles should not receive one penny of financial aid.
She was in Ghana for the inauguration of their new president Mahama. Agreed she should have canceled the trip when she got the forecasts of extreme fire danger before she flew.
What an idiot - the Santa Anna winds have always been hot dry & at times hurricane force for thousands of years. The level of devastation here has been exacerbated by bureaucrats who cut budgets, by water management who failed to carry out maintenance that saw reservoirs empty & not repaired for 12 months therefore creating an issue where fire hydrants had little or no water. Why does a billionaire couple control over 60% of Californias water? Why is the city of Los Angeles buying water from them. Water resources/infrastructure should be owned by the state. You can not fight a hurricane or a tornado .... you can how ever fight fires regardless of how they were lit or fanned.
-- In any organization we always included contingency plans for a worse case scenarios. Pre-planning does not include a Fire Dept. Chief who is focused on LGBT rights and inclusion in the Fire Dept. over a well run department and a mayor who runs away to attend a party in Africa after cutting the Fire Dept. budget of 17.6 million dollars. The reason these fire(s) are at their worst was because of one factor extremely poor planning N O T the Santa Anna Winds.
Yes, the fire started small on 10 acres, but sadly, there was NO WATER for the hydrants. The resevoir was also empty as ordered by Newsome. Fire department budget cut by the Mayor, "Excess" fire department vehicles and equipment paid for by tax payers donated to Ukraine. Etc.
we had water when the Republican governor was in office...we were able to pay for gas, and actually own a car/// and not have to sleep in a car like today////

How was she "on a military flight the whole time" when the SkyNews reporter found her at a UNITED GATE??
Seems like a "cya" written speech. Shameful to "read" a speech than to just _speak_ TO the citizens. 🤦♀️🙎♀️
Reading what her speech writer wrote. Such fake words
Mayor Bass thinks saying ‘Angelinos’ will solve this.
Was thinking the same thing
Nope, they pulled this script from a fire emergency binder. This was prewritren a while ago and that's why a working url wasn't written in there
Yeah I think its very disrespectful to read out a script in such tragedy.
so true!
No emotion in her voice ,just another day at the office.
then neither of your ears work. she clearly is doing everything in her power to help right now.

I remember when it rained heavy 2 years ago drove over a riverbed and saw all the water heading into the ocean 😢
Nor only did they not fill the reservoirs, they tore down 4 damns and sent equipment to ukraine..
Also didn't around 180 firefighters leave or get fired over COVID vax mandate?!
