The wildfires in Pacific Palisades and others in Los Angeles County have burned over 37,000 acres and caused at least 13 deaths.

When President Trump took office, he said California should consider updating its water infrastructure so farmers could grow crops and cities didn’t have to burn to the ground over a minnow. This enraged Democrat activists. Their righteous indignation fueled many think pieces about the Delta Smelt,” Covello wrote, adding that the efforts did nothing to save the Delta Smelt fish population. […]
