Blame Game: You'll Never Guess Who Maxine Waters Says Is Responsible For L.A. Wildfires

Posted • January 12, 2025: The finger pointing has begun in the L.A. wildfires. Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom are blaming Trump, Republicans, Elon Musk, Trump, Republicans, climate change and Trump. Newsom is launching an investigation into the causes and missteps of the fire and this writer is going to mail him a mirror. Now California Congresswoman Maxine Waters has chimed in, and guess who she's blaming: CA Rep Maxine Waters takes umbrage with criticism of Democrats' handling of LA Wildfires: Maxine Waters: "Instead of talking about Democrats and Republicans.

Just wow. Class warfare, at the threat of burning their lives down. Fuck Democrats. Remember that Newsom and Bass have slashed millions from fire prevention and the L.A. fire department. So tell us more about how the rich didn't pay enough in taxes. (…)
