LA Mayor Karen Bass demanded $49M budget cuts for fire department
A leaked memo sent to Los Angeles fire departments revealed Mayor Karen Bass demanded an extra $49M in budget cuts on top of the $17.6million already cut a week before fires.

Bass, along with Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom, has no problem redistributing taxpayer money to support illegal aliens, drug addicts, repeat offenders, and untold numbers of homeless people, but when it comes to fire safety in areas area regularly plagued by wildfires, deep cuts must be made in favor of "all of the above."
I've said it before, and I'll continue to say it:
Continue to play stupid games by voting Democrat, Californians who do so, and continue to win stupid prizes. While the deadly fires impact the lives of all Californians in affected areas, I'm somewhat less sympathetic to those who continue to vote Democrats like Newsom and Bass into office. Is that wrong? I'm good with it, regardless.
Anyway, the memo continues:
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it won't happen at all, given the last week.The details of this plan have not yet been developed. This is a worst-case scenario and is NOT happening yet.
But what if it had happened? Would Los Angeles County Democrats have even batted an eye? I doubt it. After all, there are oodles of illegal aliens to take care of, repeat offenders to deal with, and "proper pronoun" usage to worry about.
One disgusted currently-serving 25-year veteran of the LAFD told Daily Mail:
They did not want this out. It's an internal memo not to be distributed. It comes from top brass downtown, City Hall. They're trying to allocate more money for the homeless, and they need to start taking from everybody.
But we already exhausted our budget. It's already tapped. That's why they cut the fire academy in half, so they could save more money. That's why we're not testing if hydrants work any more. We're doing everything we can to save money.
Memo to Democrats:
Rather than howling at the moon about "climate change" being responsible for the wildfire spread, you should direct your criticism to the politicians you elected.
