Mismanagement on a grand scale--Newsom Will Watch California Burn to Prove Climate Change
According to Cal Fire there are nearly 15,000 firefighters battling 14 major wildfires, as well as a few smaller fires, across the state.
This is unconscionable, and the causations and lack of resources that produced such an environment can be laid squarely at the feet of Governor Gavin Newsom.
NBC Los Angeles reported on the progress of the Caldor Fire, which resulted in mandatory evacuations in South Lake Tahoe.
The lake is no longer crystal clear and most of the businesses remain closed, but South Lake Tahoe is slowly, if cautiously, coming back to life in the shadow of the devastating Caldor Fire that has already claimed 800 homes.
Fire officials remained on high alert this week as thunderstorms swept through the region this week, threatening to stymie containment efforts and slow down repopulation plans.
Since it erupted Aug. 14, the wildfire has devoured more than 218,000 acres and destroyed a total of 1,000 structures in the Sierra Nevada. It was 65 percent as of Saturday, and some 10,000 people are still not able to return home.
Ten thousand people evacuated. Think any of those people are thinking about voting in a recall? Doubtful.
In one of the recall Facebook groups, a poster sent this sad response:
“An entire community near me has just burnt to the ground. Newsom has failed this state and its residents. There are people who say the “recall is a waste of money.” Try telling that to someone who just lost their home due to his mismanagement.”
Mismanagement is much too weak a word. Deliberate sabotage is more apt. As I have reported on multiple occasions here, here, and as our Managing Editor Jennifer Van Laar outlined here, Governor Hair Gel delights in blaming the rampant wildfires Californians have had to battle over the three years of his administration on climate change.
...
The "climate change" crowd is desperate to sell their claims and avoids doing what normal people do to contain fires or persevere water resources. California is home to many of these wackoes.
