CBS News Adds 'Suburban Sprawl' To List Of What Caused L.A. Wildfires But No One's Buying It

Posted • January 14, 2025: The Left are literally the Spider-Man pointing meme right now. They are blaming everything and anything (and anyone) for the L.A. wildfires except the people who are actually responsible: California Democrats. Specifically Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. The biggest targets for blame are Donald Trump, the rich, and - of course - climate change. But CBS adds a new one to the mix: suburban sprawl. —— CBS News @CBSNews: “How suburban sprawl and climate change are making wildfires more destructive.” —— Sigh. Yeah, that's not it. CBS probably missed the news that 'climate change' and 'suburban sprawl' are a 39-year-old illegal immigrant named Jose Carranza-Escobar, who was just charged with three counts of arson. — Take comfort in knowing if the people running California and L.A. were Republicans, CBS would be doing actual journalism. And what did Newsom and Bass do to meet this growing threat? They emptied the reservoirs and cut millions from firefighting budgets.

"Fire" requires 3 things - oxygen, fuel, and a source of ignition. Always has, always will. Remove one element and the "fire" is extinguished. "Climate Change" plays no part. Let's start with the *ignition* of these fires… If someone didn't start the fires, they wouldn't happen. Absent that, clearing brush and storing water and not sending fire equipment to Ukraine would've made the fires less severe and more manageable. —— Anything but governmental negligence. https://video.twimg.com/tweet_video/GhONPTgXAAAM0l_.mp4 —— Pretty much. Government is never to blame. Unless Republicans are in charge. —— And yet, knowing that "urban sprawl" and "climate change" were looming over Los Angeles like a sword of Damocles, Karen Bass and Gavin Gruesome left the reservoirs empty. This won't work anymore, CBS. They cried wolf long enough. —— The fires are your fault now because you want to live in a house. You think you hate the media enough but you definitely don’t.

This is exactly what they're saying, because claiming it's caused by 'climate change' and 'suburban sprawl' gives them the 'evidence' to rebuild L.A. with dense, eco-friendly housing and to ban single-family homes. That's what the eco-loons want, after all. Thankfully, they're not gonna get it.
