Gavin Newsom is the Perfect American Leftist: Always wrong, never in doubt.
Los Angeles is burning. There is no water in the fire hydrant system.
Check out the below public exchange, in which the Spoiled Princeling of the French Laundry acts like a petulant Gossip Girl, instructing the President of the United States to “tell it to the hand,” because Hair Gel doesn’t like being criticized accurately.
Water mismanagement and incompetent failure to clear away woody detritus in a fire-prone city are why Los Angeles is burning to the ground. Incoming President Trump has not been alone in calling for more aggressive forest and city foliage preventive management. Severely incompetent Gavin takes the time to call on the Imaginary Climate Hysteria Gods to “explain” why a major American city is being turned into ashes.
In related news, Janisse Quiñones, the head of the Department of Water and Power (DWP) in Los Angeles, has an annual salary of $750,000. Her whole job is to make sure there is water available to fight fires, should they occur. The fire hydrants in Los Angeles ran dry within a couple of hours of firefighters tapping them to, you know, fight fires.
I know now is not the time, but when LA evaluates their staffing levels going forward, I promise that if I take over her job, I can fail to keep the water system full for $725,000 per year. Looks like there are lots of water-related roles that unqualified, inept or cynical people can fail to do for huge salaries.
This video is beyond insane. A woman is demanding of the Governor that he do something about her daughter’s school burning to the ground. He is telling her he is calling outgoing, asleep-at-the-wheel, serial-pardoner Brandon in Washington, DC, to find out what he - the Governor of California - can do for her and her daughter.
When she asks him to put the call on speaker, Captain Hair Gel tells the woman that he has to walk away from her to get some cellphone signal to call 3,000 miles away to ask the President what to do. It reminds me of the scene at Bob’s Country Bunker in the Blues Brothers when Jake tells Bob that he has to go sit in the car to write out the check to pay for all the beer the band drank.
I give credit where credit is due. Gavin is a consistent Leftist. He sure as heck doesn’t believe in States’ Rights or in being the final authority in California. He is not even able to look a constituent in the face and tell her what he - as, you know, Governor - is going to do for her and her daughter. He’s got to go ask Big Daddy back in The Swamp.
At least he is there on the ground to be confronted. The Mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass was in Ghana as part of a delegation to celebrate the inauguration of Ghana President John Mahama, and to meet the country's first female vice president, Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang.
Clearly, a priority for an American mayor whose city is on fire.
Here she is ignoring a journalist’s questions.
Californians keep voting Democrat.
To paraphrase Mencken, you vote for what the Dems promise and you get it good and hard.
Great update and subtitle. Thank you for the dose of humor with the salaries. It is always an eye-opener to learn what these empty-headed incompetents are paid with tax dollars.
