LA’s Democrat Mayor Karen Bass got absolutely skewered by a reporter over her failed policies that led to dry fire hydrants and the most destructive fire in history.
Karen Bass slashed Fire Department funding by $17.6 million a few months before the fires erupted on Tuesday.
This is the most destructive fire in Los Angeles history and the city is not prepared to contain the fire because of Democrats like Karen Bass.
Los Angeles firefighters couldn’t even battle the inferno because the hydrants went dry.
Watch:
Around 4:45 p.m. Tuesday, a hydrant firefighters were using on Lachman Lane ran dry. You can hear what sounds like air pushing out, but no water. #PalisadesWildfire #PalisadeFire #PacificPalisades pic.twitter.com/09e6FRrcIM

Karen Bass was actually in Africa as her city burned down.
The LA Mayor was in Africa attending the presidential inauguration in Ghana as tens of thousands of Los Angeles residents evacuated and watched their homes burn down.
Later Wednesday, fresh off the plane from Ghana, Mayor Karen Bass met with Governor Newsom and Los Angeles firefighters for a photo op with charred structures as the perfect backdrop.
Watch:
The impact of these fires and winds are devastating.
I just got off the phone with @POTUS and discussed an urgent path forward towards recovery for the thousands of families impacted.
Thank you @CAgovernor and Senator @AlexPadilla4CA for your continued support for our city. pic.twitter.com/zYa8DsD327

A Sky News reporter cornered Karen Bass and absolutely torched her over her failed policies.
Karen Bass was stunned and hung her head in shame as the reporter lambasted her.
“Do you owe citizens an apology for being absent while their homes were burning?” the reporter asked a stunned Karen Bass.
“Do you regret cutting the fire department budget by millions of dollars?” the reporter asked.
Karen Bass stood there in silence.
“Have you nothing to say? Elon Musk says that you’re incompetent. Are you considering your position?” the reporter asked Karen Bass before she ran off like a coward.
