California

Whitney Cummings has not been red-pilled. She said so herself.

The taxpayer-funded lefties at National Public Radio felt compelled to defend efforts of “DEI” (i.e. the left-wing “diversity-equity-inclusion” racket) that’s been discredited both intellectually and at the ballot box last November on Friday’s All Things Considered, in “Why right-wing influencers are blaming the California wildfires on diversity efforts,” by Lisa Hagen

Whatever one thinks of some Republicans suggesting aid to California after the devastating wildfires come with strings attached, it is hard to claim the state’s wildfire prevention strategy has been a success. Still, The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart took to the air on Comedy Central on Monday to mock GOP criticism by reducing forest management to raking leaves.

The horrific California wildfires have left many stories in their terrifying wake: some heartbreaking, some inspirational, with many more to be told as the fires continue to burn. In addition to reporting these, the media seem bent on telling another story: that of Governor Gavin Newsom as a competent state executive completely in control and proactively responding to the fires.

Friday’s edition of Washington Week with The Atlantic played defense for the Democratic Party in California over the raging wildfires that have destroyed tens of thousands of acres and thousands of houses, with one panelist in particular taking the time to chiding Trump and call Republicans liars for daring to point out the obvious failures of human response. 

On Thursday afternoon, MSNBC host Chris Jansing devoted a segment to letting climate alarmist Jeff Goodell blame the Los Angeles wildfires on human-caused global warming as the MSNBC host also promised more discussion of this topic in the near future.

The anchors of NBC’s Today spun themselves dizzy on Saturday as they tried to give credence to two separate liberal talking points. First, Laura Jarrett memory-holed the COVID lockdowns as she proclaimed President Joe Biden to be the best jobs president “in history” while Peter Alexander tried to tie the current Los Angeles wildfires to climate change.

“February was the wettest month in downtown Los Angeles since 1998. With over 12 inches of rain drenching the city, it was the fourth-wettest February -- and the seventh-wettest month overall -- in the city’s nearly 150-year recorded history,” said Judson Jones’ report on Los Angeles’ weather on March 2, 2024, in The New York Times. Just under a year later, Los Angeles is on fire and…

NBC’s Seth Meyers and Comedy Central’s Desi Lydic both attacked President-elect Donald Trump on their respective Thursday editions of Late Night and The Daily Show for politicizing the Los Angeles wildfires with his attacks on President Joe Biden and Gov. Gavin Newsom. Both argued such attacks were not only unseemly but factually wrong; however, both blamed climate change for…

As the Los Angeles-area wildfires continue to burn, the leftist media have found almost every possible way to explain what caused them, while ignoring the obvious facts. On Wednesday’s The 11th Hour, MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle brought in University of Pennsylvania professor and longtime climate alarmist Dr. Michael Mann to hypothesize about the fires as a direct effect of climate change…

As the Los Angeles wildfires rage on, the corporate media are compelled to cover some of the issues that have emerged. But as we see with NBC’s coverage of the shortage of water for fire hydrants, there is a reluctance to cover underlying political incompetence. 

Leave it to MSNBC’s Joy Reid to indulge her Trump derangement with no restraint, even in the middle of an ongoing disaster. Such was the case when she and Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) disgustingly politicized the horrific Los Angeles fires in order to score cheap dunks on President-Elect Donald Trump.

The district attorney who refused to seek the maximum sentence for Laken Riley’s killer is one of three Soros prosecutors to lose reelection this month.

On Saturday afternoon, CNN weekend host Fredricka Whitfield devoted a segment to promoting UC San Diego implementing a new requirement that their students take at least one course on the climate, presumably as a way of promoting the liberal theory that humans are to blame for recent natural disasters.
