The only authoritarian government I've seen that last 8 years were the democrats. Free speech was censored by democrats and liberal. Lockdowns and vaccine mandates imposed by liberals not conservatives.
Trump to be sentenced on Jan. 10 on 34 charges, before his Jan. 20 inauguration
- Thread starter Ceiling Cat
- Start date
You just argued you would support a system where liberals aren't allowed power.
Now we have Musk and Zuckerberg, right wing billionaires, censoring and controlling SM. Trump is threatening to sue any paper that pushes negative stories while he threatens Canada and Greenland. How do you see this as more freedom?
Your lunacy is at an all time high. Last I check Zuckerberg was censoring people who spoke out against the same vaccine mandates that you support.
What fact checkers? The ones from Reuters who board member is also a Pfizer board member.
He is a lying, fraudulent criminal who cheated to retain power after he lost. He should not be allowed to be dog catcher in a small town, let alone Prez.
The POS coming into power and every single person in LA and California who voted for him deserves what they are in for. I feel bad for the intelligent folks.
Trump ATTACKS on LA should be CRIMINAL
yeah sure...blah blah blah...it's that smug attitude that helped get him re-elected.
Thanks for your support!
Just like Jan 6, the liberals still think it happened, even if you slap that letter in their face...
Show me where anyone accused Trump of starting the fire but for him to play politics and blame Newsome is a joke. You really need to listen and read properly.
Newsome is partly to blame. This is his state.
Blame the oil$gas industry.
Blame the insurance industry for cutting off fire insurance to most Malibu housing earlier this year.
insurance has nothing to do with fire prevention. if anything they dont want this to happen.. common sense
If Trump tells you to jump off a peer into an ocean full of great whites would you say, "hmmm, that's a great idea"
RITCHIE, DON'T DO IT!!!! LOL
Here, read and let it sink in unless Trump and you know more than the scientist then us sane folks can't help you.
LA fires: What's happening in Los Angeles, and what caused the wildfires?
Everything you need to know about the blazes that have forced thousands to leave their homes.
www.bbc.com
Officials have pointed to high winds and drought in the area, which has made vegetation very dry and easy to burn.
For the moment, officials have said the cause of the fires remains unknown and continues to be under investigation.
The probable impact of climate change has also been cited - although the exact circumstances remain unclear.
Some 95% of wildfires in the area are started by humans, according to David Acuna, a battalion chief at the Californian Fire Service, although officials are yet to state how they think the current fires started.
An important factor that has been cited in the spread of the blazes is the Santa Ana winds, which blow from inland towards the coast. With speeds of more than 60mph (97 km/h), these are believed to have fanned the flames
What role has climate change played?
Although strong winds and lack of rain are driving the blazes, experts say climate change is altering the background conditions and increasing the likelihood of such fires.
US government research is unequivocal in linking climate change to larger and more severe wildfires in the western United States.
"Climate change, including increased heat, extended drought, and a thirsty atmosphere, has been a key driver in increasing the risk and extent of wildfires in the western United States," the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says.
And following a very warm summer and lack of rain in recent months, California is particularly vulnerable.
Fire season in southern California is generally thought to stretch from May to October - but the state's governor, Gavin Newsom, has pointed out earlier that blazes had become a perennial issue. "There's no fire season," he said. "It's fire year."
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Acuna said the Palisades Fire represented only the third occasion in the past 30 years that a major fire had broken out in January.
If Trump tells you the sky is blue and it is, you'd call the sky racist and nazi...If Trump tells you to jump off a peer into an ocean full of great whites would you say, "hmmm, that's a great idea"

If trunp told you that you were a woman you would bend over and take it with a smile
Over the next few weeks you’re going to hear Governor Gavin Newsom, Mayor Karen Bass, and the Democratic Party tell you that there’s nothing that could have been done to prevent the fires from destroying Los Angeles. Those will be lies. They could have prevented them. Governor Newsom cut the funding for preventing forest fires and failed to build sufficient water resources for fighting fires. Mayor Karen Bass cut $17.5 million in funding for the Los Angeles Fire Department and then went to Ghana even though she knew of the risk of catastrophic fires. It’s true that California, in general, and Los Angeles, in particular, are fiery places. It’s true that the Santa Ana winds made the fires worse. But Newsom and Bass have known about those hazards for all of their careers and failed to deal with them. Their rank incompetence and lack of leadership are shocking and scandalous. It’s hard to overstate how badly they screwed up water management. LA firefighters haven’t had the water they needed. Newsom hasn’t built the new water reservoirs that Los Angeles needed. And Newsom even cut the budget for water infrastructure projects last year. Why is that? Part of the reason is that they were focused on other things. Making the fire department more racially diverse. Climate change. Homelessness. And the reason they were focused on those things is because those are what the radical Left that controls the Democratic party wanted them to focus on. Year after year, they do nothing while focusing on things like trans and Trump and climate and ignoring the things that really matter to the people of California. The Democrats in California aren’t like Democrats in other states. They are radicals. I would know, since when I was a young radical I moved to California for that reason. As many of us get older, we become more moderate. We become more practical. We understand firefighters and police officers are necessary. We are reminded of the importance of things like safe streets and hard work and good schools. But more than that, I saw the consequences of radical progressive policies on the environment, homelessness, crime, education, water, and everything else. Violent criminals, in particular, are devouring Los Angeles, Oakland, and the rest of California. The people who control the Democratic Party in California worship books about Los Angeles, like City of Quartz by the Marxist author Mike Davis. In that book, Davis claims that the problem in Los Angeles is that too much money goes to things like firefighting to protect wealthy neighborhoods. They did the same thing on crime and homelessness. They failed to provide adequate funding to the police. They weakened the laws that allowed for burglaries and robberies. They subsidized homelessness, attracting homeless people from around the United States to camp illegally and start fires. Over half of the fires in places like Los Angeles and Oakland are caused by the homeless committing arson, often out of some petty revenge. We don’t know what started all of the fires, but at least one started within the housing subdivision. Others may have started in the interface between housing and wildlands. Or it could have been started by the homeless. Whatever the case, California and LA didn’t invest enough in preventing fires because they were distracted by radical Left causes. When Rick Caruso ran for Mayor against Karen Bass, he called for increasing the fire department’s budget. A big part of the reason he lost is simply because he was white. I watched focus groups in 2022 and the most racist people were white liberals in Los Angeles. When they discussed the mayoral race, the white people overwhelmingly said they couldn’t vote for a white man and had to vote for a black woman because she was black. The Latino men and women in separate focus groups were much less racist. They wanted to know about their policies. It was the radical Left that invented the racist idea that white people alive today should feel guilty about things white people did in the past. Racist white guilt led people in Los Angeles and California to vote against a guy who would have prevented those fires. And so, over the next few weeks, when you hear Governor Gavin Newsom, Mayor Karen Bass, and the Democratic Party tell you that there’s nothing they could have done to prevent the fires from destroying Los Angeles, don’t believe them. It’s time for California to grow up and move beyond the juvenile Leftism that has destroyed the state and destroyed Los Angeles. We can’t trust our leaders to run anything. It’s not just incompetence. It’s that they really don’t care. It’s time for Californians to demand new leaders — ones who aren’t beholden to the radicals who control the Democratic Party. .
Trump don't believe a dude can be a woman...I think that's you and the democrats..
YOU WANT TO SENTENCE HIM?': Stephen A. Smith goes nuclear on Democratic judge Juan Merchan for moving forward with the NY sentencing against Trump. Wow. "This is the kind of stuff that just validates assertions about stuff being politicized... what is the PURPOSE of this? Is he going to jail? Gonna get a fine?" (He's not) "We've got to sit up there and go through all the pompous circumstances when you KNOW you're not going to do anything! He was certified TODAY as the next President of the United States of America." "But you want to sentence him? You, Juan Merchan? [...] What is the sentencing about? [Like] an NDA?"
