Newsom Targets Trump In New Blame-Game For Future Wildfires

One of California’s top storytellers is repeating a troubling performance.

Indeed, in a June 20 X post, California Governor Gavin Newsom not only set the table to blame Trump, he employed slippery stats that can mislead readers, writing:

“Donald Trump isn’t just threatening CA’s disaster aid, he’s also pushing for dangerous cuts ahead of wildfire season — A 63% REDUCTION in the U.S. Forest Service’s budget. A 30% REDUCTION in workforce — 10,000 employees. The agency is the nation’s largest firefighting entity. It oversees more than half of the state’s forestland. He is literally playing politics with people’s lives.”
