  1. Shame om Newsom that tok away waterreservoirs. There was no water in waterposts. The firedepartment had the budget cut with severeal millions and a lack of fireMEN…… Newsome is a bullshitter that talks and talks but don´t have controll

  2. Newsom and LA Mayor, what's up with no water in the fire hydrants, firefighter budget severely cut recently, fire insurances canceled only months ago, LA Mayor out of the country when the fires started, your homes not touched . . . looking pretty suspicious . . . .

  3. Notice the fake setup, with the interviewer left foot stuck in the concrete stair… If they go in person there, it will end up like the spanish Kings visiting the people after the flood few months ago.

  4. 50 million dollars 💵 was just approved to be “Trump proof” when he gets into office next week. Unbelievable!! Instead of using that money for this disaster , they’re going to spend it on nonsense.
    This is exactly democrats los and why they will keep losing years from now if they do not change their policies. Starting by this obsession with Trump

  5. I guess you haven't seen my home of WNC. It is terrible for anyone to go through this kind of catastrophe. Glad to see some cities are doing right by their citizens. Here, it has been too little and too lacking ever since Helene. For example, it took almost two weeks for the city to put out portable toilets and city center water distribution. DOnation centers popped up quickly but none by the City. There was little to no poor communication and our politicians withehld valuable information on the timeline to rebuild and restore our water infrastructure to prevent people from leaving – a statement made on national news by the Mayor of Asheville. Nobody had power or fresh water, the water was too polluted to boil despite a boil advisory saying safe to boil for consumption. There is a long list of examples. I am glad to see the pople of LA coming together quickly and government funds launched immediately (and I am referring to the immediate rescue, recovery and clean up funds. I know what FEMA does and does not do. But The pubs withheld federal funding for over a week post Helene, resources that were deeply needed right away). I think the perspective is so different. Many people here couldn't afford to stay in a hotel for weeks or months, even if they still had their car, a wallet and any clothing left. I m so sorry for those who have lost their homes, businesses and even worse, their loved ones, in all these catastrophic and increasingly common events. I hope people start seeing these unusual weather patterns for what they are… and they are anything but "natural".

  6. Newsome is so fake. What’s with the exaggerated hand and arm movements and body rocking to emphasise every word spoken?! Lives have been lost, thousands are homeless, and Newsome stands grinning like a fool, as though he’s enjoying himself.

  7. Newsoms political playbook: delay, investigate, delay, delay, then enough time goes by and its old news, quit dwelling on the past, can we move foward. How many times are we going to hear this?

  8. Sorry Hes a con artist! The single most sleazy Politician I have ever seen. California deserves him and I hope they keep voting for him. And that Interview is as fake as the background it was filmed against. he's like a sleazy used car salesmen

  9. So many negative comments; but where is the blame for the oil company shills who have completely ignored the real reason for this: climate change! No one can extinguish fires with 100 MPH winds! This is insanity. No wonder insurance companies are cancelling policies. But yes, his hand gestures are awful.

  10. Well done green screen. They even coordinated camera bob with the background bobbing (why would such a high dollar camera be bobbing? They dont have it on an auto-stabilizing gimbal? I can order one for my phone.) Their edges are pretty obvious and the lighting doesnt match the background. Still an impressive piece of editing requiring two cameras at least and a good bit of post production. The greater take away though is this whole thing including the 'questions" and "answers" are fakeries of production. There is nothing genuine here and that's why the legacy media is collapsing in free fall.
