Los Angeles Wild Fire

Politics’ Hypocrisy : News Reports across the spectrum confirm the devastating impact of Los Angeles wild fire including statements from those – the outgoing Political Administration in D.C. instructing law abiding citizens in California and Los Angeles public in this particular instance to follow evacuation orders.

“Vice President Kamala Harris said in a statement Wednesday morning: “I am urging residents in the affected areas to listen to local officials, remain vigilant, and evacuate immediately if told to do so … As a proud daughter of California, I know the damage that wildfires have on our neighbors and communities.”

“Secret Service personnel are permanently positioned at Harris’s home in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles.

Evacuation orders posted on Cal Fire for the Palisades fire warn: “Immediate threat to life. This is a lawful order to LEAVE NOW. The area is lawfully closed to public access.”

The same does not seem to apply to them in politics deployed ordinary tax payers funded secret service personnel whose lives apparently don’t matter. 

That is politics’ height of hypocrisy and abuse of people such as risking secret service personnel lives despite mandatory evacuation based on imminent threat to all lives.

Not to mention the service expended by taxpayers money to safeguard the mighty wealthy politics and their personal property and private estate while calling out people on compliance.

Time to end politics’ parasitic culture on ordinary citizens when thousands and millions of people are rendered homeless at this hour.

Politics in and out of Public Office – The new incoming administration claim to focus on eliminating wasteful funding – the ordinary taxpayers funded private security of those in and out-of-public office exploiting free access to such self-granted and not taxpayers approved privileges needs to be axed duly returning the tax dollars back to taxpayers who are unlawfully taxed on their social security benefits and their hard earned investments and life savings.

The latest wild fires originating in the Pacific Palisades in the coastal and northern Los Angeles forcing evacuations and massive damages are extremely concerning.

As always, the brave first responders and fire fighters – the true heroes risking own lives to save others’ lives and property including parks and woods in natural environment earn salutations for their valor and sacrifice.

Similarly, the ordinary folks efforts to mitigate crisis while attempting to escape the inferno are quite moving.

Prayers for all those in the midst of the most excruciating challenge.
