Wildfires in Los Angeles have burned 40,000 acres, displacing tens of thousands of residents. With 92,000 under evacuation orders, many are seeking shelter elsewhere. The fires have caused fatalities, and strong Santa Ana winds threaten to worsen the situation. LA officials, including Mayor Karen Bass, faced criticism, but additional firefighters are being deployed. Governor Newsom announced a plan to rebuild, while President-Elect Trump criticized the state's response. The National Weather Service issued a "Particularly Dangerous Situation" advisory as over 8,500 firefighters battle the fires.

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.

As wildfires ravage the Pacific Palisades, LA fire crews run out of water due to years of mismanagement and underfunding. The city's water system struggles to keep up with the massive demand, resulting in devastating losses. Multiple blazes in LA County, fueled by hurricane-force winds, have destroyed over 1,000 homes. The fire spread to 16,000 acres by Wednesday night. Residents express outrage over the city’s failure to adequately prepare, while Mayor Karen Bass faces criticism for being on vacation during the crisis.
