Wildfires in Los Angeles and California are nothing short of calamitous

The firestorms that have been ravaging Los Angeles and Southern California are nothing short of calamitous.

Julian Zelizer : Drought weather and high-speed Santa Ana winds are fueling the fires.

He says it's an early-year preview of how the U.S. will respond to rampaging climate disasters.

Zelizer says right-wing media has attacked the L.A. Fire Department’s chief, the first lesbian woman to lead the force.

Trump updated his attacks on “ Gavin Newscum ” by alluding to a “water declaration resolution” for inflowing water supplies that, Newsom ’s office clarified, never existed.

Musk and his cronies have since attacked Mayor Karen Bass for supposedly fostering water shortages in the fire hydrants because of poor reservoir management.

This is not only untrue, it completely misunderstands how water supply for firefighting works.
