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. 

Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis, as usual, hit the nail right on the head the other day.

On Friday morning in his Substack, our friend Erick Erickson wrote that the national media’s Trump-focused and Democratic-defensive coverage of the California wildfires has led him to believe “[i]t’s time to let the press hit rock bottom” and even had him “starting to wish ill on the American press” even though “[t]he country needs it” and the powerful deserve to be held to account.

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.

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.

Last week, America took an IQ test -- and passed. “President Biden, when he came into office, said that he would be the most progressive president since FDR, and I think on domestic issues ... he has kept his word.” -- Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Nov. 10, 2024. Indeed, Sen. Sanders, that is why Vice President Kamala Harris, who said she would have done “nothing” differently, lost the election…

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) has vetoed a sweeping Big Tech censorship bill which favored Google over open-source tech developers..

Even former Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (CA) has warned her governor against signing a sweeping Big Tech censorship bill passed by the California legislature. 

Censorship-obsessed Google seems to be buying off California news outlets with a bombshell deal to fund and influence the state’s journalism enterprise in the middle of an election year.

An NBC News item on lost solar energy inadvertently exposes the folly of big-government climate policies such as the Green New Deal, and building mandates. The report also exposes the extent to which the market does not actually support an electrification agenda.

HBO’s Bill Maher and former MSNBC host Chris Matthews were greatly displeased on Friday night’s Real Time that Democrats won’t replace President Joe Biden with California Gov. Gavin Newsom after his disastrous debate performance the night before.
