Another possible source of comedy? HBO's REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER. The
long-running host has shown a knack for truth-telling regardless of
party affiliation. He's been a thorn in the Left's side for several
years, mocking progressives for their extreme culture war positions
and woke overreach.
 
He's based in L.A. and might skewer pols who have made the problem
exponentially worse. He's also a Climate Change alarmist and might
focus on that angle, even if there's no evidence climate change played
a role in the catastrophe.

 
Of course it didn't. There's only so many ways these fires get started.
Either nature starts them-- almost always via lightning strikes-- or
humans start them. Sometimes it's because humans don't maintain the power
lines and they fall over during high winds and spark fires, or they're
caused by human negligence (a tossed cigarette butt) or arson.
 
There was no lightning when these fires started and they've ruled out
downed power lines. That leaves only one option left: someone started
the fires, either accidentally or on purpose. It was not fucking 'climate
change'.

 
Didn't they catch someone trying to start one with a blowtorch and another
with a cigarette lighter, and at least one is suspcted to be an illegal
alien who is a member of a South Amercians gang?

Yeah, the blowtorch guy was an illegal alien running around a neighborhood in
the hills and lighting garbage cans on fire. He was literally tackled and
disarmed by residents and held until the cops showed up, but the LAPD later
said they didn't have probable cause to charge him with arson, so they
charged him with felony probation violation instead.

I did  not know about those details. I thought someone saw him on the side of
a road trying to ignite some shrubbery.

But they didn't turn him over to ICE, because even an illegal that's trying
to burn down the entire city must be protected from being kicked out of the
country.

At this point, I saw "screw California" and let them suffer the results
of being a "sanctuary state".
