Winds are normal in CA. Have been for centuries. Just like our very close neighbors Mexico just miles away…same climate…not burning up in flames all the time. The only job they have is all year to protect our forests and the only homes the animals have. This is bad management and CA knows how to deal with fire dangers and work the defensive or quickly contain if a fire spreads. Scheduled back burns, taking/clearing old growth with crews all year and residents required to remove brush too. This is so heartbreaking.
It’s going to get worse. 100% coverage for a totally preventable disaster. Meanwhile NC, GA, Hawaii…get nothing. Tempers are going to rage hotter than the fires. This will divide us all even further.
I agree the forests have been mismanaged but Mexico has many less structures to be burned and is a true desert. There are almost no shrubs or grass to burn. Not a great comparison

It’s them , why would they tell on themselves more than they already have ? We need to do something but they made it so dangerous out there ppl are scared
The government has been mishandling the situation for about two hundred fifty years. Indigenous Americans had controlled burns all over the country. Lightning strikes helped clear out the brush
The fire chief said she has a thousand fire dept. vehicles in the maintenance yard. Budget cuts were said to be the reason the vehicles were not on the street.
Fakery again! That’s the most obvious green screen I’ve ever seen. He’s totally got an outline all the way around him, especially when he is right in front of the fire truck.

Same as hurricane damage, same as tornado damage. The only thing that is a different event would be earthquake, because we haven’t no idea they are coming nor can we prevent them. It wasn’t a lightening strike: it was likely FIREWORKS. Humans causing humans damage and then the politics flow
The threat of the plants around them has also been there many many years. Insurance companies had been trying to tell them to do something about it, and when they didnt, they cut off tons of people leaving them with no coverage. The government knew this was a risk for as long as those houses were there.

Funfact but the greatest Fire in California history was started because a power line company failed to properly maintain equipment. It's far more likely imo that it was the result of a PSEG transformer. Also the conspiracy theories about some guy with a blowtorch seem a bit counterproductive when it's so dry and so windy that literally a loose cigarette bud could be enough.

I heard there are many residents in Fla. who do not like DeSantis yet still voted for him because of how on-the-ball he is in handling emergency situations. DeSantis is obviously doing something right.
I live in sweden and there is no reports of water shortage or undermanned fire department, because the old man can not be put in a bad light. Now if Trump was the president then media here would go completley crazy. Media here makes it even look that the fires are out and there is no more fires. It's not us making everything politcal it's media. Everythingg is a club, and we are not memebers.
There is no one person to blame, don't believe the fear mongering. It was likely a freak accident, and the combination of factors being perfect for fire caused it to accelerate to where it is now. Fires happen all the time. Just doing basic bare bones research says while we may not have a concrete answer yet, arson is incredibly unlikely. The place where the fire started was considered "inaccessible rugged terrain".
One fire, though. It looks like there could be a combination of accidental man made fires such as the electrical fire, and multiple arsonists taking advantage of the conditions and chaos.
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land.
Even when the fires are out the next disaster will be the eventual mudslides when it rains. LA County will need to distribute empty sandbags on a huge scale! Set aside large areas for k -rails to be on stand by

People keep talking about rebuilding no matter what. What about water? How can anyone think there is a limitless supply of water. The water supply will be the judge of any intentions to rebuild.
One man was interviewed and said his wife called 911 but no one came fast enough he said it could have been put out a lot faster if they would have responded faster.

Why build houses in the desert?
Ask someone from Los Vegas! Land of the ignorant!
Not desert.

Crazy you would follow something that sounds vindictive and super egotistical.
rain and sunshine falls both on sinner and saint
Matt5:45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
nice
literally a (hell on earth)
Does Matt also have clothespins in the back?
That is a very tightly fitted "firepersons" jacket. 😏
PRAYERS ABOUT CALIFORNIA FROM UZBEKISTAN FROM TEXAS 🤲❤️🥹
Im not sad about what is happening in Los Angeles.
Just say you're not a human
The insuerance companies are Lucky that they do not have to pay for this
Not luck. They saw this coming a mile away. The question is why didn't the leadership of that area?
Anyone can rebuild with financial support. But why would I want my tax dollars going to rebuilding other peoples homes. You have insurance for that. That’s not on taxpayers.
The wind and fire 🔥have the right to defend themselves
Especially, if they identify as trans.
🤡🤡
Tragedy and unnecessary to have happened ❤❤
The dry hydrants at the start of the fires caused this. This could have all been AVOIDED
That plus the unprepared under funded fire departments headed by woman who can't even handle one of those hoses and have no idea what fighting a fire is like. DEI is deadly.
Is this gaza? It was america
FIREWORKS SHOULD BE BANNED FOR PUBLIC!
Couldn't agree more. PTSD is another reason too, every time.
They already are in California
Shut up.
@@JamesAntakydepending what kind they are it’s not banned in all counties , I live in San Joaquin county and some of them are legal to do
Homeless and illegals too.... everything causing fires
Winds don't cause fires. A person with a match or blowtorch starts the fire. The wind just helps it spreads.
Funfact but the greatest Fire in California history was started because a power line company failed to properly maintain equipment. It's far more likely imo that it was the result of a PSEG transformer. Also the conspiracy theories about some guy with a blowtorch seem a bit counterproductive when it's so dry and so windy that literally a loose cigarette bud could be enough.
@@nighttimeasbestos5958 A guy with an improvised flame thrower was literally arrested, genius.
Winds increase the likelihood of fires...just in case you're wondering.
Very sad... Super power, USA has billions of Dollars for Ukraine war but don't have any effective fire hydrant system in place against forest fire which occurs almost every year... Americans are left helpless...
On the other hand Modi govt has done excellent work to rescue indians from abroad and excellent work at home in handling corona... Jai Bharat... Only NaMo
Yes, yes, all of America is like L.A. :^) Stay in India please.
I sad down and cried. Wonderful memories of LA.
@ANPC-pi9vu who wants to leave India? And that to for US! I was not comparing for the sake of blame game. But expecting much better for affected families... Feel very sad for the families who lost everything... I was not expecting you to understand...
@@alomaalber6514 I can understand... Feel very sorry for the families who lost everything...
Well that’s what happens when you accidentally on purpose set a fire. Maybe Gav should ask Desantis about disaster preparedness.
I heard there are many residents in Fla. who do not like DeSantis yet still voted for him because of how on-the-ball he is in handling emergency situations. DeSantis is obviously doing something right.
Oh the state that ridicules the rest of America and scolds them is on fire? Ok.
You mean the State that subsidizes all of the "taker" red States like Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi?
destruction like Gaza
stay safe
If a Republican were in the back of the pickup truck while moving, it would be ridiculed by the democrat media news.
Please stop making everything political.
You are an I D I O T !
Why do you have to make it political. Stop being divisive
I live in sweden and there is no reports of water shortage or undermanned fire department, because the old man can not be put in a bad light.
Now if Trump was the president then media here would go completley crazy.
Media here makes it even look that the fires are out and there is no more fires.
It's not us making everything politcal it's media.
Everythingg is a club, and we are not memebers.
God does not forget. What you did to the people of gaza will never be forgotten.
Crazy you would follow something that sounds vindictive and super egotistical.
The best thing about all these fires is the Smelt fish was saved.
I just had a platter of smelt last Friday. Delicious beer battered, deep fried and served with lemon wedges, coleslaw, and potato salad.
You don't actually believe protecting the smelt has anything to do with this, do you? 😂
Of course you do, because lord orange 💩 told you so.🤡
I personally think fireworks shouldn't be allowed or sold in the USA
Time to pray.
With action
We don't have time im busy 😂
It was actually a guy named Devan costa who started the fire
1/7/25 According to IRIB TV3 in Iran, "In the coming hours, the World will witness Unusual Scenes and Developments." (h/t Sent Defender)
There is no one person to blame, don't believe the fear mongering. It was likely a freak accident, and the combination of factors being perfect for fire caused it to accelerate to where it is now. Fires happen all the time. Just doing basic bare bones research says while we may not have a concrete answer yet, arson is incredibly unlikely. The place where the fire started was considered "inaccessible rugged terrain".
One fire, though. It looks like there could be a combination of accidental man made fires such as the electrical fire, and multiple arsonists taking advantage of the conditions and chaos.
These terrorists attacks are getting more Sophisticated
Riding in back of a truck with out a seat belt is against the law!!
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land.
Awesome post.
Thanks.
God Bless and stay strong :).
得了吧，你什么都不做不了，灭心中火易，灭山中火难
@ same to you hon. (No, I'm not hitting on you, I call everyone hon, it's a southern thing)
That is about Yisrael, not people in general nor a religion and it is definitely not talking about the lands of Yisrael's captors/oppressors.
@@truthiscensored It applies to Christians too....
I could have sworn he almost said palestine instead of palise. It's weird the similarity
No it isnt
That drive in an open truck is just plain stupid
looks like a green screen
@@MnMs93 Actually you are right, it does. It does now that you mention it.
We support the right of fires, hurricanes, and earthquakes to defend themselves in all American states.
Fireworks should not be allowed at all in California after this, not even Disneyland.
It is sad when the landlord uses this situation to make money.
Even when the fires are out the next disaster will be the eventual mudslides when it rains. LA County will need to distribute empty sandbags on a huge scale! Set aside large areas for k -rails to be on stand by
You voted for it
Those who shot the fireworks in the mountains probably give 2 f.... about the damage they caused
Geez, CA has had enough already. 2025 is not starting off the right way.
And god bless the 84 and 86 y/o couple. Talk about bravery that paid off.
Let’s not forget California just had one of the biggest droughts also
There were warning signs, and they ignored them. Now everyone suffers.
Ocean front shoreline homes destroyed with THAT ocean for a front yard.....let that sink in!
Another example of just how incompetent the local gov'ment is in that area!
Therefore they should be been more prepared

You will have a droit when you don’t collect the water like they were supposed to do
People keep talking about rebuilding no matter what. What about water? How can anyone think there is a limitless supply of water. The water supply will be the judge of any intentions to rebuild.
If they'd invest in desalinization plants they'd have abundant water. They have ample coastline.
One man was interviewed and said his wife called 911 but no one came fast enough he said it could have been put out a lot faster if they would have responded faster. Just repeating what was said from a person in Palisades. And fireworks should be banned in California due to the dry area, and neglect of the brush and forest. Prayers 🙏 for California.
I know so true ❤
Firefighters aren’t octopus’s - they have to respond to what they can in the moment.
@@Jhunt12303 I didn't say they were I was repeating what a man that lived there said when all this started!!! Please read and comprehend the paragraph.
@@selena3957..whatever.
Top shelf reporting folks! Thanks and stay safe..
Feel the pain of GAZA.
You still convinced Americans care about Gaza⁉️ Read the comments on some of these sites. A lot of Americans don’t care about Americans.
Why not move to Gaza? I hear they have a place for you.
Free Gaza from Isis
@@Mrs.DavidMuir You should. Because you did Gaza. Now God do you.
@ Americans care about each other. But not other people.
Americans are the most evil oppressors of the last century and climax it all in the last year.
Fire in dead of winter. Destruction much like what you did to Gaza. That not tell you something?
Just imagine if everyone that had a pool stayed and used the water to save their home, along with others using the water from their yard. The fire hydrant water and the water for houses is separate. Both could’ve been used at the same time.
Fire hydrants had no water
How ya going to pump the water from your swimming pool onto your house?
@Fishoutawith a tiny sump pump
DEW expected to pick up... in whatever zone they want to rebuild into a smart city. That should be the title.
Is that the ABC news costume fire jacket with clothespins on the back to make the “journalist” look more svelte?
@@Mrs.DavidMuir
But did it have a clothespin on the back?
@@Mrs.DavidMuir
Uh huh. About as believable as you being his wife. 🫠
of course that is the Hollywood costume trick that Brando used in that TV shirt he wore, zip up the seam in the back! Wardrobe Mistress told me how to do that tailoring trick. Prayers for ALL, I sat down and cried. for Hollywood it's a wrap it will not be the same again. I am on the East Coast but was hoping for more memories in that town!
Thank you lord for all the Firefighters. Bring Them your blessings in all there needs. Investigations . And the Brush fires. 🔥
WINDS WILL BLOWING 90M/H...
To the faux fire fighter in the bay of the moving truck: Never too early for cringe self promotion, eh?
Winds Of Change!🤠🇺🇸
