Outrage is boiling over after revelations that the Santa Ynez Reservoir, a critical water source in Pacific Palisades, was empty and offline when a devastating wildfire ripped through the area.
The Los Angeles Times reported that despite the reservoir’s critical role in the city’s water infrastructure, it had been offline for nearly a year.
The Santa Ynez Reservoir, with a capacity of 117 million gallons, could have played a critical role in providing water pressure to firefighters battling the devastating fire that destroyed thousands of homes and buildings in Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and Malibu.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who will now be forever known as the weirdo who ran with Kamala Harris in 2024 and failed, is now endorsing gun control activist David Hogg in his bid to be vice chair of the Democratic National Committee.
The 2024 election showed that Democrats have a serious problem with men, who are fleeing their party in droves.
It’s not clear how having David Hogg in a leadership position would do anything to help fix this problem for them.
None of that seems to matter to Walz, who believes Hogg will provide the ‘courageous leadership our party needs right now.’

In tears, actor James Woods detailed the moment he learned his Pacific Palisades home burned in the Southern California fires that continue to devastate parts of Los Angeles in an interview with CNN Wednesday morning.
"One day you’re swimming in the pool and the next day it’s all gone," Woods told anchor Pamela Brown on Wednesday while repeatedly choking up. Woods then recounted his evacuation and how he helped rescue his 94-year-old neighbor, who has dementia.
"He’d been left alone," Woods added. "There was so much chaos, it was like an inferno. Every house was on fire around us." (X) Keith Olbermann is glad. But not because Woods saved an elderly man

Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin Crowley was fired by Mayor Karen Bass on Friday afternoon, a source close to the chief’s office told DailyMail.com.
‘Kristin was summoned by Bass this afternoon, about 4pm. She came back from that meeting, hugged her staff goodbye and left. She said she was fired,’ the source said.
The alleged booting follows Crowley lashing out against the Mayor’s cuts to her department, in an interview with a local Fox TV station around 12pm Friday.
‘My message is the fire department needs to be properly funded,’ the Chief said. ‘It’s not.’
‘Did they fail you?’ Fox LA’s Gigi Graciette asked. ‘Yes,’ Crowley replied.

I was surprised, if not shocked, when two A-list celebrities, country singers Garth Brooks and his wife Trisha Yearwood, took the microphones at the State Funeral for Jimmy Carter yesterday and began performing “Imagine,” written by former Beatle John Lennon in 1971. The song is widely described as an “atheistic anthem” and incredibly is said to be one of the late 39th president’s favorite songs. "Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try.
No hell below us
Above us, only sky. . .
Imagine all the people
Livin’ for today
Ah
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too"
To me, it sounds like a globalist woke anthem

President Joe Biden ruled out the idea of pardoning himself, explaining he had not thought of pardoning himself because he “didn’t do anything wrong.”
During a press conference at the White House, Biden was asked if he had “ruled out” issuing a pardon for himself or “any other additional members” of his family. In December, Biden issued a “full and unconditional pardon” of his son, Hunter Biden, regarding “offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024.”
“Have you ruled out a pardon for yourself or any other additional members of the family?”

During an interview with “CBS Evening News” that took place on Thursday and was released on Friday, LAFD Chief Kristin Crowley denied that diversity initiatives have harmed the department’s ability to respond to emergencies like the recent fires and stated, “my number one priority is making sure that we can take care of the community that we took an oath to take care of, and with that is our ability to respond to emergencies.”
Crowley stated, “My top three priorities since day one [have] been this, I want to clearly articulate that: The number one priority from day one is ensuring that the LAFD has the capability to respond to

The notoriously political Judge Juan Merchan sentenced President-elect Donald Trump Friday morning for his ridiculous ‘hush money’ conviction in Manhattan. The Lawfare effort was entirely to position President Trump as the first convicted felon in the White House. That’s it. That’s the sum of motive and intent. To create a narrative.
That’s what lawfare is all about, creating public perceptions and using the judicial system to advance political goals. Few people care about the issues and the entire case is likely to be thrown out on a host of appeal reasonings.

The new CEO of a New Jersey government investigative commission is resigning after it was reported she lives in another state and has another job.
A story from Asbury Park Press says State Investigations Commission CEO Tiffany Williams Brewer only shows up to work once, maybe twice a week. Her primary address is in Maryland, and she works at Howard University three days a week. Williams Brewer was named acting CEO after former Chief Chadd Lackey died in a car accident last year. On Jan. 1, she ditched the acting title and her salary increased from $175,000 to $210,000 — more than Lackey was making.

Special counsel Jack Smith, who brought two criminal investigations against Donald Trump, resigned on Friday ahead of the president-elect’s inauguration.
Smith’s expected departure was revealed in a court filing that Justice Department officials submitted to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon in Florida on Saturday, asking her to refrain from extending a court order used to block the release of Smith’s final confidential report summarizing the two federal Trump probes. Those cases are now closed.
