More nonsense and bullshit from you!

Here are the facts, reading is your friend.


Quiñones and other DWP officials said that the city was fighting a wildfire in hilly terrain with an urban water system, and that at lower elevations in Pacific Palisades, water pressure remained strong.


Before the fire, all 114 tanks that supply the city water infrastructure were completely filled.

Quiñones said that the hydrants in the Palisades rely on three large water tanks with about 1 million gallons each. The first ran dry at 4:45 p.m. Tuesday; the second at 8:30 p.m.; and the third was dry at 3 a.m. Wednesday.

“Those tanks help with the pressure on the fire hydrants in the hills in the Palisades, and because we were pushing so much water in our trunk line, and so much water was being used. ... we were not able to fill the tanks fast enough,” she said. “So the consumption of water was faster than we can provide water in a trunk line.”

Palisades fire: Evacuations, road closures, shelters, schools, forecast

In other words, the demand for water at lower elevations was hampering the ability to refill the tanks located at higher elevations. Because of the ongoing fire, DWP crews also faced difficulty accessing its pump stations, which are used to move water up to the tanks.
I other words, they weren't prepared.
They spent $400 million getting their port to be "green" and focused on DEI while slashing millions from the fire fighters' budget rather then invest in the infrastructure necessary to fight the fires properly.

That's what happens when you have a state that has been democrat for the past 20 years.

You shared a meme that tried to portray them as immigrants. It did not distinguish the difference between them or explain what a first & second generation immigrant is.
That wasn't the point of the meme you shared.
The point of the meme was to call them immigrants with a negative connotation.

You can dance all you want but Vivek was born in the US and is not an immigrant in the context of what the meme is trying to peddle.
You spread misleading information and that is considered misinformation.

You need to apologize or explain why you try and spread misinformation so often?
Now you are agreeing that they are IMMIGRANTS. But you are condemning the meme for not mentioning about first and second generation immigrants.
Keep on moving the goal posts skoob as you have a history of it on this Forum!!
Vivek was born in the USA to the First Generation Immigrants that had no entitlement to immediate citizenship until they decided to Naturalize.
Only the Mother did so, and his father is still an Indian immigrant residing in the USA!!
Stop your BS skoob, as you are ranting on and on like a broken record!!
Both Vivek and Elon meet the broad criteria of IMMIGRANTS whether first or second generation. Why do they have to spell them out when everyone except you are fully aware of it?

Watch this video again when at the very start he was asked if he would PARDON ALL THE JAN 6TH RIOTERS?

His immediate response was SURE!! Even NODDING HIS HEAD!!

So once again are you denying that he said the above when it was from the Horse's own MOUTH??
You are just trying to desperately make up crap when proven to be 100% wrong!!
No silly...he was asked about the interview and said yes.

What he actually said in the Time interview is below...which you would have seen if you bothered to tear yourself away from your confirmation bias:



Transcript:

Have you decided yet whether you're going to pardon all of the January 6 defendants?

Yes.

You’re going to do all of them?

I'm going to do case-by-case, and if they were non-violent, I think they've been greatly punished. And the answer is I will be doing that, yeah, I'm going to look if there's some that really were out of control.

So you will not include those who committed violent acts?

Well, we're going to look at each individual case, and we're going to do it very quickly, and it's going to start in the first hour that I get into office. And a vast majority of them should not be in jail. A vast majority should not be in jail, and they've suffered gravely. And I say, why is it that in Portland and in many other places, Minneapolis, why is it that nothing happened with them and they actually caused death and destruction at levels not seen before? So you know, if you take a look at what happened in Seattle, you had people die, you had a lot of death, and nothing happened, and these people have been treated really, really badly. Yeah, it's an important issue for me. They've suffered greatly, and in many cases they should not have suffered.

No silly...everyone other than aboriginals are immigrants. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc generation can all be considered immigrants in that case.

What you are trying to squirm away from is the fact that it's not the context of the meme you posted. You know exactly what I mean but are playing stupid since I called you out for it.

I'm willing to bet that you didn't even know that Vivek was actually born in the US and assumed he was born elsewhere when you shared that meme. Admit it.

It's fun watching you tap dance around your failure.

What part of the article makes you believe that they were in fact prepared? They weren't.
You can spin it any way you want...fact is the city is on fire and containment is still at 0%.

Jeezuz even in November there were signs of issues.

From the article:



It’s unclear how widespread the hydrant issues were. In November, the lack of water from hydrants hurt the effort to combat the Mountain fire in Ventura County, when two water pumps became inactive, slowing the process to deliver hillside water.

Caruso, who also ran unsuccessfully for mayor in 2022, contended that the challenges were avoidable.

“This is a window into a systemic problem of the city — not only of mismanagement, but our infrastructure is old,” Caruso said.




But I think the solution could have been to purchase more DEI firetrucks. Lol!

You don't know what you
you are talking about....as usual.
So the fires are under control because all the fire prevention systems were fully prepared to handle it and the fire dept budget wasn't cut by $millions recently?

Please enlighten us and show us that you know what you're talking about.

Once again you are making excuses for what he originally said. I played the exact time that he agree to pardoning ALL THE RIOTERS!!
This was 5 months ago when he had that interview. So, I was 100% right in the first place that he said he would pardon ALL THE RIOTERS!!
Only you with your demented line of questioning is refusing to accept that fact.
Now you show me a later link from 2 months ago where he is trying to walk back what he stated in the first place.
Where does he state that he is NOT going to pardon those who committed the violent acts in his ramble above, when he was pointedly asked that question.
All he did was to distract to "Portland and Minneapolis"!!
You cannot comprehend that fact and so don't you feel stupid about it??

You have made a clown out of yourself. First questioning the integrity of that Indian news media who referred to Vivek as a Second Generation Immigrant.
You did not believe that he was considered to be a second generation immigrant until I proved it with a likewise Wikipedia link.
Now you keep on deflection that ohh Second generation Immigrants are not considered to be immigrants......what a joker you are.
Once again that Meme does not have to go in full detail to spell out first or second generation immigrants as Vivek's parents were first generation Immigrants.
So save your baseless comments for Ann Coulter:

Yes of course, along with Trump Scoob is ready to jump into the political fray instead of realizing it's only going to get worse with climate change that in your mind doesn't exist. They will rebuild and set things up a little differently but Mother Nature under climate change will bring in the next course of devastation so the righties can jump up and down to blame someone.


Why fire hydrants ran dry as wildfires tore through Los Angeles
Water experts dismissed Trump’s claims that California water policy is to blame for dry hydrants. But Los Angeles is also unprepared for the age of urban wildfires.

The California fires showcase MAGA inchoherence perfectly.
Its amazing how many idiotic ideas they come up with to deny that climate change means more extreme weather events like fires.

Maybe to get more viewers, in this season, Trump will get charged for multiple felonies, nearly assasinated a couple times, face off against multiple opponents for Presidency, and become richer than he was when he started. Then in the finale he becomes President again by winning popular and electoral vote…..

Nah forget it, that’s not believable.

Sounds like you need to go save some smelts.

You do know that over 80% of forest fires globally are caused by humans right?

But in case you didn't know, please send me some money for a new campaign I have going. "Save the forests from climate change fund"...donating to my cause will make you feel better while making me some cash. It won't change anything as far as fires but at least you can get that warm/fuzzy feeling in that you are helping.

For every dollar you donate...it will change the climate by .000000000000001 degree. I can't tell you how, but just trust me ok?

Fair?

Yes of course because climate change isn't real! I know, Trump told us so it must be true!
