Failed FEMA Administrator Deanna Criswell, was interviewed on CBS News by Margaret Brennan over the weekend. Brennan asked Criswell "why the area was so unprepared" for the fires, to which she said that in Southern California officials "were very prepared" for the fires, "I think they were very prepared," because that is the type of answer a D.E.I. hire who is thoroughly incompetent for this job would give to cover their butt.
Criswell also claimed that it was difficult for firefighters to reach the fires due to the fact that they were in "such a populated area."
But the areas are well known to have high winds and as this is being written there are gusts of winds blowing between 60 - 70 miles per hour in one area. They knew this and they knew the areas involved in fire were highly populated.
But California didn't have enough water, nor enough firefighters to fight the fire, but Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass refused help when the New York Fire Department offered it.
The Palisades fires at this time destroyed 23,713 acres and Eaton area lost 14, 117 acres--these are biblical proportions compared to prior wildfires. None of these fires, now and in previous years, is a surprise; it's an ongoing phenomenon as are the Santa Ana winds. Twenty-four people have been confirmed dead.
No rain is forecasted for the week so Los Angeles remains dry.
Where is Kamala Harris?
