I left Malibu, California 23 yrs in the past due to excessive taxes and liberal morons. I simply couldn’t take the liberals and their loopy, radical, excessive concepts anymore. I moved to Las Vegas. It was one of the best transfer of my life.
In Las Vegas we now have no taxes- no revenue tax, no enterprise tax, no capital good points tax, no inheritance tax and among the many lowest property taxes in America. Weapons are authorized. The solar is all the time out. And everybody I do know is a conservative MAGA Trump supporter. You realize what I name that? HEAVEN.
However I liked Los Angeles within the outdated days. I arrived in LA in 1989 to begin my job as lead anchorman and host of 5 tv exhibits at CNBC (then often known as Monetary Information Community). Again then LA was far completely different than now. It was nonetheless the outdated “old fashioned LA” of Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart, Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra and naturally, Ronald Reagan. It was an awesome city. We even had a Republican Governor Pete Wilson from 1991-99. I fell in love with LA.
However over my 13 years of residing in LA (most of these years in Malibu), it modified dramatically. Now, look what these excessive, radical, communist nutjobs have carried out to my stunning L.A.
Over 2,000 houses have burned to the bottom (to date). Let that quantity sink in. It should take many years to rebuild all that was misplaced.
Wildfires are nothing new. Nobody ought to have been stunned a few wildfire. Nobody ought to have been caught unprepared. Wildfires are so frequent in LA, a big portion of their finances ought to have been devoted to fireplace prevention, water administration and forest clearing. And one other giant portion of the finances ought to have been dedicated to hiring extra firemen and coaching them for wildfires. Who didn’t know this was coming?
I spend my summers in Park Metropolis, Utah. Utah is a purple Republican state. Two summers in the past, I used to be in Park Metropolis when a big wildfire broke out from a lightning strike. Park Metropolis is surrounded by forest. Owners have been scared to demise this was “the massive one” they’ve all the time dreaded. However Utah was ready. They despatched water-dropping planes and helicopters. Not one dwelling was misplaced.
On the time I gave my opinion on radio and TV. I stated, “This success story might by no means occur in California. California has no cash for firefighting as a result of they spend all of it on thousands and thousands of unlawful aliens. And their minds are centered 24/7 on open borders, DEI, the transgender agenda, reparations and environmental extremism.”
Bullseye.
That’s the story of the worst pure catastrophe in California historical past that we’re all watching in shock proper now.
Listed here are the issues that turned a nasty wildfire mixed with a nasty wind occasion into one of many largest disasters in US historical past, definitely the most costly of all-time.
First, Los Angeles elected a radical, excessive, communist nutjob for mayor. She was in Africa when the fireplace broke out. What’s the Mayor of LA doing in Africa? Why would she abandon her personal metropolis, when everybody knew an enormous wind occasion was on the best way. That is Exhibit A for the psychological sickness of liberalism. I name it “felony negligence.” She ought to be indicted, arrested and if discovered responsible, spend years in jail.
Second, we come to DEI. All the governments of the state of California and town of Los Angeles are devoted to DEI. The Fireplace Chief of LA is a lesbian dedicated to DEI. Her deputy chief is a black lesbian. They publicly bragged about their devotion to ridding the LA Fireplace Dept of old fashioned white guys and hiring for “variety.”
Possibly, simply possibly, a bunch of white, straight males who spent their lives combating wildfires might have slowed, or stopped this fireplace. Should you simply misplaced your property and a lifetime of reminiscences on this hearth, which might you choose- a white fireman who is aware of learn how to struggle a wildfire, or a black lesbian employed for her pores and skin coloration and sexual orientation?
Subsequent, we come to finances constraints. This Mayor reduce the fireplace dept finances by $17 million. I’ll wager she wanted the cash for DEI salaries and packages, and naturally, for housing, schooling and healthcare for illegals. Possibly if she had spent the $17 million on the Fireplace Dept, and added $17 million extra to rent extra firefighters and gear, these 2,000+ houses would nonetheless be standing at present.
Subsequent, we come to radical insane environmentalism. LA is a metropolis constructed on the Pacific Ocean. But the firefighters had no water? Want I say extra?
Possibly they need to have used all of the billions they spent on unlawful aliens to construct new reservoirs, and construct desalinization vegetation, clear lifeless brush, and exchange outdated pipes so firefighters have water stress. Possibly they need to have launched extra water to LA, as a substitute of defending some obscure fish.
Subsequent, we come to the homeless drawback. My mates in LA inform me 80% of the time of the LA metropolis council is spent on the problems of unlawful aliens and the homeless. Possibly they need to as a substitute dedicate 80% of their time to getting ready for the pure disasters that plague LA- fires, mudslides and earthquakes.
Subsequent, we come to Ukraine- one other 24/7 liberal obsession. Are you conscious a big portion of LA’s firefighting gear was despatched to Ukraine to help within the conflict effort?
Lastly, we come to a different liberal insane obsession- Covid vaccines. LA fired tons of {of professional} firemen who refused the vaccine. Might we now have used them up to now 72 hours? What number of houses might just a few hundred additional firemen have saved?
This horrible, tragic story will not be about wildfires, or local weather change. Wildfires are a part of on a regular basis life because the starting of Los Angeles. And local weather change didn’t trigger the explosion in dimension of this wildfire.
Brainwashed liberal idiots with reckless, harmful concepts made this tragedy 100 instances extra harmful & lethal. Look what you probably did to yourselves.
This was a man-made catastrophe created by a psychological sickness known as “California liberalism.” All of that, plus electing as your chief a Kamala Harris DEI clone.
