LA California Wildfire Day 7: Newsom Faces Urgent Battle As Dangerous, Winds Threaten To Spread Fire

California Governor Gavin Newsom is facing a recall attempt fueled by sharp criticism of his handling of devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. Opponents argue his leadership has been marked by a series of failures, with increased living costs, rising crime, and inadequate wildfire management. The recall effort, spearheaded by Randy Economy of "Saving California," aims to gather 1.3 million signatures in five months.

Pacific Palisades Wildfire: LA Mayor Karen Bass Cut Fire Dept. Funding By $17.6m To Benefit Homeless

LA Mayor Karen Bass faces intense criticism for cutting the fire department's budget by $17.6 million, just months before the devastating Pacific Palisades wildfire. Critics argue that Bass’ decision to allocate nearly double the amount for homelessness, while leaving vital firefighting resources underfunded, exacerbated the city’s crisis. With destructive wildfires raging across the city, the mayor's leadership is under scrutiny, especially after reports of dry fire hydrants and her absence in the midst of the disaster, as she was attending a taxpayer-funded trip in Africa. #PalisadesFire #PalisadesFireUpdate #TrumpOnPalisadesFire #PacificPalisadesFire #CaliforniaWildfires #LosAngelesFire #LAFires #PasadenaFire #CaliforniaFire #PacificPalisadesFireToday #LAWildfires #FiresInLA #FiresInCalifornia #PalisadesFireEvacuation #FiresInLosAngeles ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.334~
