California has been on fire for the last week, and it is not an Act of God. Oh, some of the fires might be, but numerous people have been arrested for starting fires on purpose, both by police and civilians. Then there are the other reports. The reservoirs aren\u2019t full, some entirely empty, after two years of record rainfall. Many fire hydrants are just missing. Others have no water pressure. Los Angeles reduced fire department funding by 17 million dollars to focus on DEI from top down. Dry brush wasn\u2019t sufficiently cleared during the off season to starve fires of fuel. And now we\u2019re getting reports from firefighters from other States that California is intercepting and stopping them when they are driving in to help fight the fires. This is a Man Made Disaster, and I hope everybody remembers it going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
