It's disgusting how the left celebrates tragedy. They celebrated NC getting hit by a hurricane because it might help Kamala. They celebrated the CEO being shot even though his children lost their dad. Now they celebrate a guy losing his home just because he's not on their side. Liberals are truly awful people.3 points

Trump is a joke. He can't help that he's stupid and crazy. But the fools who decided to give him real power are the real problem. He's not even in office yet and he's turned America into a laughingstock again. That press conference... Good Lord. 70 minutes of pure rambling insanity. The Gulf of America? What a dipshit.3 points

The problem is that the US is not in a rational place right now. They are in the grips of a mass psychosis orchestrated by Trump. Their exalted dear leader has the power to lead them to some very dark places.3 points

A place to discuss the acts of the MAGA movement, and retaliation from the countries they target, and it's allies. Macron and the EU issue a statement, that Europe will not tolerate an attack on Denmark or Greenland.2 points

Boy did you get fooled. Pretty clear who the demented one is. Rain comes from heaven "They" are restricting water from your taps The Gulf of Mexico needs renaming The govt = business means whole countries can be bought or acquired by hostile economic takeovers So many acres t's the whole ocean Not a f*cking mention of lower grocery prices, american jobs or even the pet deportations......

Right-wing social media influencer Rogan O’Handley, known online as “DC_Draino,” posted pictures of Crowley and the New Orleans police chief — both women — and wrote, “DEI is quite literally getting people killed.” He added, “Bring back merit.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25] Gateway Pundit contributor Drew Hernandez wrote, “At least Los Angeles had its first lesbian fire chief. How’s that working out? DEI = DIE.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25] Anti-LGBTQ account Libs of TikTok, run by Chaya Raichik, posted a picture of Crowley and said, “She boasts about being the first female and LGBTQ fire chief in the LA Fire Department. Promoting a culture of DEI is her priority. Does this make you feel safer?” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25; The Washington Post, 4/19/22] On his prime-time Fox News program, host Jesse Watters showed an image of three women leaders of the LAFD and said, “This is the leadership of the LA Fire Department — I sure hope they know what they’re doing,” while shaking his head, and later claimed that “California is committing suicide before our very eyes. DEI is deadly.” Watters also said the fire chief marched in Pride parades, adding, “Have all the pride you want, but you better make sure you’re ready to do your job when it counts,” and he also claimed that “California has a program to scrub white males from the fire department.” [Fox News, Jesse Watters Primetime, 1/8/25; Los Angeles Fire Department, accessed 1/9/25, 1/9/25] Newsmax host Rob Finnerty suggested Crowley was hired only due to DEI and declared that “these are not once-in-a-generation wildfires. This is not climate change. This is death by DEI.” He said: “This is death by DEI once again, just like we saw last week in New Orleans with Ann Kirkpatrick, the DEI hire police chief. … In Los Angeles, it's the exact same story: death by DEI, this time with their brand new fire chief. … The first LGBTQ fire chief, something we can all hope to have in our own towns one day. The mayor even had her marching in the LA Pride parade in front of the fire engines. OK. Never mind that she's incompetent.” [Newsmax, Finnerty, 1/8/25] Far-right host Alex Jones posted that “DEI Equals societal collapse.” Jones was responding to a post about Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass visiting Ghana when the fires broke out. Local reporting noted that Bass was “in Accra this week as part of a delegation to celebrate the inauguration of Ghana President John Mahama,” but she “was on her way back to Los Angeles Wednesday morning as the city remained under siege from several major wildfires.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25; KTLA 5, 1/8/25] Posting about the fires, right-wing commentator Dave Rubin attacked DEI as “repackaged racism,” saying, “there is finite time and manpower, and if you choose to waste them on DEI your core competency will diminish.” Rubin added that “while there are a myriad of reasons these fires are so bad, even one day of the fire department wasting on hiring more minorities or sensitivity training is one too many.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25, 1/8/25] On Hannity, Fox News contributor Leo Terrell attacked “DEI nonsense that that LA Fire Department chief supports,” and he baselessly claimed that the LAFD has “no intention of putting out these fires.” [Fox News, Hannity, 1/8/25] Right-wing pundit Mike Cernovich lamented that the “Los Angeles Fire Department chief is a DEI advocate.” In another post about the fires, Cernovich wrote that “DEI spells DIE.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25, 1/8/25] On Truth Social, Rumble host Donald Trump Jr. questioned, “Can we rename DEI to DIE since that’s what seems to happen to the people downstream of those who place woke virtue signaling far above competency?!?” [Truth Social, 1/8/25] Right-wing activist Robby Starbuck asserted that “DEI has deadly consequences because ANY focus on it means resources stolen from the true mission of first responders saving lives” in response to a Libs of TikTok post saying that Crowley “is hailed as the first female and LGBTQ chief and says her priority is DEI.” He added, “Think of the money and time spent on DEI for LA Fire Dept. What if it was spent on more firefighters, water resources or infrastructure improvements?” Starbuck has reportedly “claimed success for pushing 15 public companies to change or abandon their DEI and LGBTQ policies.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25; The Wall Street Journal, 1/7/25] Responding to a Libs of TikTok post that said the “LA Fire Department’s first female LGBTQ chief created a DEI Bureau to train firefighters in DEI,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey asserted that “DEI is a tool of destruction everywhere it’s wielded. It literally leads to death.” She added: “Diversity is NOT a worthy goal in itself. Effectiveness is. And when you sacrifice effectiveness for diversity, especially within a fire department, police force or military unit, people will die. I’m tired of innocent people’s lives being placed on the altar of equity. Enough.” [Twitter/X, 1/8/25] Right-wing social media figure Phillip Buchanan, known online as “Catturd,” wrote “Another massive DEI failure” in response to a video about Crowley seeking more women in the department. [Twitter/X, 1/8/25; Daily Dot, 11/17/23] On his show, Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk called the wildfires “a major public policy disaster, and for people in California that have been voting for Democrats, this is what you get — you get mismanaged government, you get woke fire departments.” On social media, Kirk also lamented that Los Angeles had a “DEI fire chief.” [Real America’s Voice, The Charlie Kirk Show, 1/8/25; Twitter/X, 1/8/25] An Infowars article titled “Lesbian Los Angeles Fire Chief Roasted For Prioritizing DEI As Palisades Inferno Destroys City” asserted that the “city’s DEI policies [are] harming the fire department.” The article ended by claiming that “California’s Democrat policies are openly harming its citizens.” [Infowars, 1/8/25]2 points

I find the liberal mindset is one of philosophy/ideology. When you ask them to get concrete on solving issues they are unable to do so. The fire coordinator apparently said their priority is diversity, equity and inclusion. If you know anything about incidence command systems, what they are signaling through the use of this type of language is that this is where they are going to allocate their resources. Priority = resource allocation. Not to fire and disaster mitigation such as ensuring the reservoirs could match a significant fire like this one, but to make sure that they have enough people who chop their genitalia off in their work force, they focus their energy and days work on putting a float in the pride parade, etc. Crazy.2 points

My worst interests include voting for parties that want to flood Canada with immigrants whose culture is hostile to mine, who devalue, denigrate and mock my culture, values and the history of my country, and who focus their entire policy platform on taking away money from people who work in order to give to those who don't.2 points

LOL. Trump can actually sit through a press conference and answer questions. You guys supported an old man with dementia. The adults are back in charge now. No more letting the world burn while you care more about hating America. It is telling that what really upsets you the most is that he wants to call The Gulf of Mexico The Gulf of America. Oh now! Not America. You guys hate America. Invading Canada? No one has said anything about invading Canada. Let me guess, it really upsets you the most that he threatened Hamas if they don't release the hostages.2 points

For wildfires in that part of the world there are immediate causes like downed power lines, lightning strikes and arson, and underlying ones like abundant dried vegetation and unusually strong Santa Ana winds. Obviously, it’s hard to exclude the role climate change is playing here which makes for more vegetation, drier vegetation and stronger winds.2 points

I have read Jack Smith's entire 165-page filing in the case of The United States of America vs. Donald J. Trump, and it lays out the evidence for the case against Trump in his efforts to illegally turn over the 2020 election. Unless you have read it, you have no business disparaging it. Yes, Trump is a crook. You can read it online: https://d3i6fh83elv35t.cloudfront.net/static/2024/10/gov.uscourts.dcd_.258148.252.0.pdf2 points

Elon is currently trying to prop up far right Governments in Germany, France, the UK, and other countries. He is also trying to show division and racism in these countries. It will probably be a case of "when" and not "if" the EU countries ban Musk's social media app from their countries. I think Canada should follow Brazil's lead, and ban Twitter/X.1 point

Actually I don't imagine that at all... It was simply the best analogy a MAGA hyena could come up with on short notice. Reality is what it is and it doesn't care what you or I think. Get it wrong and it eats your lunch. I'm beginning to understand why progressives fare poorly in the military. Sort of like planetary terraforming then? How would you keep the effects (meaning the weather you plan to create) local? Would prevailing westerly winds and upslope from the mountains deflect your efforts eastward? Evaporation rates, ground absorption and overall water requirements might be problematic too, at a minimum it would make pretty slow work of it... but I'm rooting for ya.1 point

There's no shortage of things California could do to improve fire fighting effectiveness, and fuel load reduction. The concrete actions they could start today would fill an entire thread. I mentioned a few arial application possibilities above but regardless, whether it be ground or air assets, water is a good first start. Since you're not willing to tread that path and seem fixed on the climate change aspect, what do you see as the best short term and long term strategy for California to embark on? In the absence of pursuing infrastructure and forestry management enhancements, how long should they expect to wait for global initiatives to achieve measurable results. Asking on behalf of ill informed MAGA hyenas everywhere.1 point

Macron being macho is hilarious. Europe is a mess and Macron in particular is nothing more than a pompous a55 frog. His power is waning and he's basically just an irrelevant little sh1t now. Trump is enacting his own negotiating style. A style that seems to work. But nobody with any grey matter in their head, thinks his proclamations are anything more than designed to get everyone's attention and make week minded twits freak out. And evidently...it worked. I would think that Trump will wind up essentially buying Greenland by putting in a military presence and encouraging large corporations to invest in mining there. Apparently...the people of Greenland would not be adverse to that. As for Panama, I figure he'll squeeze them till they give US shipping a much better deal to use the canal. But ya..."AHHH!!! ORANGEMANBAD!!! WE ALL GONNA DIIIEEE!!!" Pfft...simple Libbie twits.1 point

A fire starts in the LA area. The winds come up and blow the fire all over the place. LA...having a lack of water due to really stupid decisions concerning their water supply and unable to effect the spread of the fire due to the high winds, sit and watch entire neighbourhoods go up in flames. Greenies howl, "CLIMATE CHANGE, CLIMATE CHANGE! AAAHHH! WE ALL GONNA DIIIEEE!!!" and proceed to express little to no sympathy for the victims because, "WE TOLD YOU SO!" Now...aside from the a55holish mentality, it is impossible to link this fire to Climate Change. But they try with their usual smug attitude which...BTW...is one of the reasons they lost the last presidential election. The stupidity of it all is the stuff of a comedic tragedy.1 point

California has always had wildfires. With the seasonal dry season starting in the fall and the Santa Ana winds coming every winter, the wildfire threat is a when, not an if. The only thing that can be done is to mitigate the threat. You do that by limiting urban sprawl, cleaning and pruning brush near home and making sure there is enough water to fight fires. It can also be limited with fire resistant roofing materials and external fire sprinklers.1 point

California still needs Canada's water regardless, so we can all enjoy our avocado toast for breakfast plus, according to the Canadians themselves Canada is a White Supremacist Settler Colonial Post National State committing Genocide against the Indigenous thus the Glorious Union will have to subjugate Canada to free all the slaves everywhere, to include the "Indigenous Canadians" it's the perfect pretext for seizing Canada's resources which the leftist lunatic f*ckwit Canadians invented themselves ah, the just desserts are so delicious therein1 point

Actually it's a good time for Danielle Smith to go and state her (and Alberta's) case, because anyone worth knowing (politically) is going to be there. She will likely find common ground with more than a few U.S. politicians. If she did nothing it would be a dereliction of her duties as Premier. Of course there are always a few maroons amongst us who think otherwise.1 point

Oh FFS post a link. You can post another in 10 years about how it's only 16 years away... And where did you get such bizarre information? Never seen one flare off or something? Or just similar to the bullshit that making a battery emits more CO2 than a steel & aluminum engine block? We know LNG is better than oil and coal. But the same thinking affects both sides, if it doesn't fix things 100% it's no good. Interim steps and 75% fixes are worse than keeping your thumb up your ass and doing nothing.1 point
