“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Young white guys who spent years mastering demanding technical skills are, in fact, entitled to careers in their own countries putting those skills to use.
They are, in actual and unambiguous fact, entitled to be well compensated for the productive use of those skills.
Corporations, by contrast, are not entitled to import low-skilled foreign scab labor to cheat the white boys out of careers in their own country.
Corporations are not even entitled to import highly skilled foreign scab labor.
Nor are leftists entitled to occupy those positions with identitarian diversity hires picked by lottery from the upper echelons of the progressive stack.
Nor are women entitled to those careers because they have vaginas.
This bass-ackwards understanding of entitlement is pure race communist gaslighting.

Whoops! I almost posted a nasty response to you!
Checked the link.
You are spot on.
For my own part, I can not communicate the total irony I see when reading any claimed MAGA advocate using the word entitled.
This was discussed earlier on, I remember.
It seems as if all of a sudden it stopped.
There was discussion that the Biden administration might be selling them junk they had no use for too.
Ukraine sold most of the weapons and US-made drones on the black market; the most recent sales were to rebels in Syria to topple Assad. This is widely known, yet it remains largely undiscussed…
https://x.com/provemewrong411/status/1879986078511432180
I remember the Biden Administration not responding to questions about the use Ukraine made of the $B funds we sent them or military equipment either.
I think a lot of people got very wealthy and maybe the Biden Administration always intended that certain equipment was not useful to Ukraine, but could/would be sold to assist the Syria rebels.
Almost like a Giant Slush Fund with no accountability.
Monday’s Swearing in Ceremony for President Trump & Vice President Vance to be held indoors due to cold weather.
Other details sketchy at present.
Global warming strikes again.
Freezing my a$$ off in Northern Virginia this January. But I’ll take temps in the teens (and below at night!) over Gavin Newsom’s fires any day.
I like the symbolism of having it done in the Rotunda due to the Reagan connection AND the fact that the Illegitimate Biden Regime used images of this venue as a backdrop for their disgusting Stalinist “Insurrection” narrative.
This will only highlight their defeat.
Wouldn’t it be amusing if PDJT invited a released Jan 6 victim to sit next to the Presidential party?!
Opens up many possibilities.
Bring the Shaman guy…all dressed up.
Brilliant point … How about excluding the MSM from the ceremony so the tape and still images must be sourced from the independent media (e.g. not AP, Getty Images, etc.)?
Our GOD in action. Nothing like throwing a curve ball at would be disrupters.

I like it. Protect President Trump our First Lady and incoming cabinet at all costs, do not give the demons an opportunity to take out the incoming administration.
Right on!
Great news! What a relief.
Agreed. Drops the risk profile considerably.
Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.
This morning I have been thinking about some of the catastrophes of the last four years:
Vaccine mandates. Marxist policies from our national health organizations resulting in thousands of deaths and other harm, and consequent widespread loss of faith in our healthcare related institutions.
Decimating the military, through vaccine mandates, strongly perverting it and diminishing its purpose/effectiveness, and perhaps worst of all, politicizing it.
Politically weaponizing the Departure from Justice, primarily against those who objected to the stolen election and President Trump and Christians in action. J6 political prisoners, ruined lives, families, communities.
Disastrous withdrawal of Afghanistan, abandonment of Bagram Air Force Base, completely unnecessary loss of 13 lives and injuries to many others, and resulting influx of “refugees.”
Open borders, treasonous complicity of the Evil Regime with mass invaders, entrance of many millions including criminal gangs, cartels, people, drug and sex traffickers, and the permanent dependent class, costing $ Billions. Forever.
East Palestine, Ohio failed response. Three major rivers permanently poisoned, affecting attendant real estate all the way to the ocean.
East Tennessee/Western North Carolina failed response. Months later families literally freezing to death.
Mocking corruption in the WH, brazenly in the face of Americans: What’re you going to do about it?
Surprise [or not] attack on Israel, Jewish and American hostages kidnapped and abused and killed in the Gaza Strip, then the extreme levels of anti-semitism growing in the US.
Censorship. Hiding truths about most items on this list and ginning up increasing division among the populace.
Fires and viruses [allegedly] in numerous food factories and farm product processors.
Russia teased into invading Ukraine, a NON-NATO country to which we have sent approximately $185 Billion. So far.
California. Sigh. 🔥
What have I forgotten?
Oh. How about a now irreversible $36 TRILLION national debt, spiraling us into national bankruptcy, an economic collapse (as even Yellen acknowledged), and loss of the American dollar as the world’s reserve currency?
The consequences have been horrific. It was a vast criminal enterprise. We’ve all seen the graph with the numbers of votes over the years – without any explanation how Old Joe ended up with 20M extra in 2020.
The Dems however, are reaping what they’ve sown. GOD is not mocked.
Great list, in the eyes of a liberal these are successes…sheesh.
Terrible fire going on at Moss Landing in Monterey County, California at the lithium battery plant there –
that was a sweet place back in 1989 (the first and only time I was there) – to me, it was an idyllic place – little fishing boats – a sort of shack restaurant on a bluff where you could get a basket of fried artichokes – I can still remember exactly how good those were –
won’t this affect the wonderful artichokes, garlic and all the other good things grown near there plus the fishing –
looked for news on the tv this morning, must have missed the bulletins!
Is this like our Chernobyl?
Don’t worry, everything’s okay!
Arson? Do they supply Tesla?
Thanks for posting. Good SA.
I expect to be in Monterey area later this year.
.
Is that restaurant the one with the frog legs?
Was told they were excellent, but I chose a ‘traditional’ seafood dish . . .
What is going on at Moss Landing:
https://www.energy-storage.news/moss-landing-worlds-biggest-battery-storage-project-is-now-3gwh-capacity/
Moss Landing had a huge diesel power station there for years, the double smokestacks are viewable from all along the Monterey Bay coastline, was shut down due to “Climate Control”. Now apparently it is used to store energy in large lithium batteries, which now have caught on fire.
So much for “Climate Control” and the new Green energy.
Thought just struck me as a “conspiracy” theorist, how many people have now installed Tesla batteries on the side of their homes to store power from solar. My brother in-law proudly showed his off to me a few months back, new program in CA pays for most of the cost, so basically free, yet you now have a mini bomb attached to your home.
How many in SoCAL fire just went up in flames and could they have contributed to the vast destruction that took place? Even more sinister, as with fears of Tesla cars, could these also be set off to cause a fire?
Love Moss Landing, stayed in a little inn there 3 times last year. Book the Boat House and get the second story and you have views of the Elkhorn Slough with otters, seals, pelicans, Great Blue Herons, egrets and an assortment of other creatures cruising back and forth.
Wow! Biden doesn’t understand how Constitutional Amendments work:
Ludicrous.
Divisive, redundant and insulting.
Our Constitution, subsequent amendments and reams & reams of legislation ALREADY guarantees all this.
This guy is nuts. There is NO 28th A.
Who’s publishing this crap???
Lefty WH interns?
Community note was added fact checking Biden!
https://www.archives.gov/press/press-releases/2025/nr25-004
““In 2020 and again in 2022, the Office of Legal Counsel of the U.S. Department of Justice affirmed that the ratification deadline established by Congress for the ERA is valid and enforceable. The OLC concluded that extending or removing the deadline requires new action by Congress or the courts. Court decisions at both the District and Circuit levels have affirmed that the ratification deadlines established by Congress for the ERA are valid. Therefore, the Archivist of the United States cannot legally publish the Equal Rights Amendment. As the leaders of the National Archives, we will abide by these legal precedents and support the constitutional framework in which we operate.”
So now we have the Biden Rule for constitutional amendments? I can’t wait to see which new amendments President Trump comes up with 🙂
They only care about the constitution when they think it will benefit them. In this case, they have changed the definition of sex so they think this can save them.
“Trump confirms the Presidential Inauguration will be held inside the Capitol.”
Hurricane damage in NC and TN, LA on fire, taxpayer-funded personnel go to Africa?

Cover story?
https://dailycaller.com/2025/01/17/joe-biden-declares-equal-rights-amendment-part-of-constitution/
Biden “declares” the Equal Rights Amendment is now part of the Constitution.
However, five states (Nebraska, Kentucky, Tennessee, Idaho and South Dakota) rescinded their ratification, so only 33 have currently ratified it.
His attempts at a “legacy” are getting loonier by the day.
Three days from just about now Trump will have completed the oath of office. It can’t come too soon.
He can’t do that. The Constitution has a process for amendments. An executive order does not supersede that.
He’s declaring that enough states ratified it to meet the constitutional requirements. But five states rescinded their ratification before the 38th state voted, so it’s down five votes.
I think Biden, or more likely Jill & Hunter, are just trying to create a lot of headaches for Trump. Yesterday, Biden said he wouldn’t enforce the TikTok ban if it was upheld.
That EO has no power. Congress has declared that Amendment to be dead and buried. The D’s have been attempting to get this thing added every few years… but the deadline has passed more than 10 yrs ago and it was not ratified by enough States.
So, a waste of paper. President Trump will just rescind it.
I think Congress may have extended the ratification deadline, but the actual text of the ERA had the original deadline, and that’s the text the states voted on. Five states rescinded their ratification, too.
At no time within the original deadline had 38 states ratified it.
They did, but it still didn’t get enough States. It was declared essentially dead last year.
Besides waste of paper, its purpose is to obfuscate the amendment process, muddy the waters on basic rights, and to cause litigation. Imagine PDJT having to rescind this EO, the MSM would have a field day. The average American is a civics illiterate.
“The average American is a civics illiterate.”
^^^^^ THIS.
Americans are now said to be wanting to eliminate the Electoral College – with no idea that in so doing they are ending the Republic!!!!
Would say that creating an analogue to the Electoral College for State Governments would go a long ways toward creating a better balance of representation between urban, suburban, and rural areas of each State.
I’ve thought this ever since the 2020 stolen election, after observing all the shenanigans in Philly and similar cities. Seems like the only way to cure determined and rampant fraud.
Its purpose is to leave another mess for Trump.
Biden also declared yesterday that if the TikTok ban was upheld by SCOTUS, Biden wouldn’t enforce it.
Expect more “executive orders” between now and noon on 1/20. Biden will probably be signing them on the way to the capitol.
Reminds me of an email exchange in the Podesta leaked emails… one college professor upset that their work to make students “civics illiterate” was not going fast enough.
We have more proof than we need this sock puppet is not running our government.
I hope president trump goes back to the date when fjb was declared by the doj to be too incompetent to stand trial for having confidential documents at his home.
Or better still go back and void the 2020 election due to vote fraud.
I don’t think Joe can just declare an amendment is passed and make it part of the Constitution. Someone please explain how this is legitimate?
“Biden ratifies new Constitutional amendment”
?!?!
What is this about?
(I get these e-mail alerts from various places including Epoch News/Epoch Times but am not currently subscribed)
He thinks the Equal Rights Amendment got enough states to ratify it to become part of the Constitution.
Obviously, some lefties in the WH are in control of his Twitter/X feed today.
bullshit
It is bullshit, but if a lie is said over and over and over again it becomes the defacto truth.
Fantastic news – swearing in ceremony moved inside the Capitol.
That’s a relief. Well done.
Yes. HUGE sigh of relief here.

I can’t be alone in feeling extremely unsettled about President Trump’s safety on Monday for too many reasons to mention, though I am certain others know what I mean..
This just breaking.
The Inauguration is being moved indoors, something I’ve thought would reduce risks immeasurably.
The reason is that a polar vortex rolling in will be bringing -6 degree temperatures.
Is it possible we are witnessing one of the Father’s mysterious ways?

THIS WILL BE SO MUCH SAFER !!!
Surprise, Dupestate !
Foiled by climate change, ha ha !!
Official reason is dangerously cold temperatures.
It will be dangerously cold, between 18 and 27 degrees, with wind chills between 3 and 12 degrees. Asking grandmas and others to arrive by 9 a.m. and stand for 4 hours on a hard frozen field in those temperatures means medical emergencies left and right . . . it is DC, not Minnesota, and people will underestimate the need for good winter boots, wind resistant headgear, and, basically, ski suits.
This is the smart call.
I remember how incredibly cold J6 was, even for a few hours. I didn’t select the correct footwear for the day, but it was possible to move around or leave. This is forecast to be much colder, with significant gusts and winds.
it is DC, not Minnesota.
Yes, right. I’ve lived in both Minnesota and Philly, and used to laugh at the Philly “dangerously cold” forecasts, and how 2″ snow could shut the city down.
Not only were people in the mid-Atlantic not used to single digit temperatures, they often did not have the proper clothing.
All the old folks in Congress are not able to tolerate the temperature extremes.
that’s a huge relief.
foolhardy to do otherwise.
Biden booted me off a nonpartisan board — precedent for Trump to clean house now
By Sean Spicer
Early in his term, President Biden made history: He fired, en masse, his predecessor’s appointees to presidential boards and commissions before their terms ended.
On Monday, when President Trump is sworn in for his second term, he should not hesitate to follow the precedent that Biden established.
Like every president before him, Trump appointed thousands of people to boards and commissions during his first term.
These generally nonpartisan groups advise the president on our military academies, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, public television and radio, national cemeteries and more.
I was fortunate to be one of those people appointed after leaving the White House as Trump’s press secretary: He named me to serve on the Commission on White House Fellows and the Board of Visitors to the US Naval Academy.
When Biden was inaugurated, all members of the Commission on White House Fellows were immediately asked to submit their resignations, and we did.
That was not unusual for this particular commission; after all, it vets and approves people to work directly within the administration.
But nine months later, I was suddenly asked via email to resign from the US Naval Academy’s Board of Visitors — and to do so that very day.

This is pretty shocking:
https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/scotusblog-publisher-tom-goldstein-diverted-millions-from-law-firm-to-pay-gambling-debts-and-evaded-taxes-for-years-federal-indictment-alleges/
FTA: “Tom Goldstein, a prominent Supreme Court lawyer and publisher of SCOTUSblog, was indicted Thursday for allegedly evading taxes for years and taking millions from his law firm’s funds to cover gambling debts.Goldstein, an “ultrahigh-stakes poker player,” allegedly orchestrated a scheme between 2016 and 2022 to “evade the assessment of taxes, file false tax returns, and fail to pay his tax obligations when they were due,” according to the federal indictment in Maryland. Prosecutors accused Goldstein of funneling millions from his boutique law firm, Goldstein & Russell PC, to cover gambling losses and other personal debts, and failing to report his poker winnings on his tax forms.
Goldstein also allegedly set up sham employment arrangements with at least a dozen women he was pursuing or in “intimate personal relationships with.” Goldstein, the indictment said, listed the women as “employees” of his law firm, paid them hundreds of thousands of dollars, and enrolled them in firm-sponsored health insurance—despite the women “perform[ing] little or no work for the firm.””
SNIP
“In 2003, Goldstein co-founded SCOTUSblog, which has grown to be the most widely-read blog covering the Supreme Court. Goldstein argued more than 40 cases in front of the High Court, including the landmark copyright case Google v. Oracle. Goldstein retired from private practice in 2023, citing the Court’s increasingly conservative shift as a factor.”
OMG. Scotusblog is like the Wall Street Journal for the DC appellate bar.
I link to it. It has the Court calendar, articles on pending cases, recent decisions, a live-blog on decision day…
Ok, it’s a good blog. Just that the guy who co-founded it is an alleged crook. His wife ( or she was his wife when the site was founded) is Amy Howe, one of Scotusblog’s reporters.
Indicted so basically accused, not yet found guilty, wonder if there’s a backstory (mad ex-employee, lover(s), bookie?) so holding off assuming he’s guilty until we learn more.
The Scotus Blog is a go-to site for most Supreme Court watchers.
Foundations and law firm profits over a certain amount would be good sources to look at to raise revenue to pay down the debt. The market elite law firms are in is rigged, so it isn’t like they are earning honest free market profits.
Trump should post, we will not have inauguration outdoors due the normal climate change.
I expect a lot of climate change jokes between now and Sunday. Heh.
Right!
Global cooling is now out of control! We need more Green! This means we need more trees and vegetation thus we need more CO2 because Green flourishes on CO2.

Trump Orders Inauguration Moved Indoors Due To ‘Dangerous Conditions’

In a post to Truth Social, Trump said that the weather forecast, including “the windchill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows.”
“There is an Arctic blast sweeping the Country. I don’t want to see people hurt, or injured, in any way,” Trump’s post continued, adding “Therefore, I have ordered the Inauguration Address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985.”
The CIA IS the Deep State.
But the propaganda continues unabated, fooling Americans into working against their own self interest.

OMG people just the other day I issued an alert about the name Kristin and the chances of your daughter being a fat lesbian if you named her that, and someone backed me up with a statistic from their own family.
I want to expand on that, it just hit me when I was musing about what on Earth happened to Kirsten Gillibrand, a woman who heretofore had managed to look and act like a fairly reasonable person, for a Democrat, when it hit me- it’s her name!
So it isn’t just Kristen, it’s derivations thereof such as Kristina (as we all just saw), and…Kirsten!
It’s not just the fat lesbian risk either. It can make you a screaming nutcase harridan as well. I think the delayed onset was due to Kirsten going by her nickname, Tina, in her early years.
It only gets worse. Case in point, Kristi Noem. A psycho pet-killer with an uncontrollable temper, who lies a lot.
What do we do about this?
Disclaimer: Not all girls named Kristin grow up to be abnormal. Just as most women named Karen are fine people, but not LA’s mayor.

Trump’s Threat to U.S. Intelligence
Disruption and Demands for Loyalty Would Undermine National Security
[…]As Trump prepares for his second inauguration, the intelligence community is again likely to be ill at ease.
With a more organized and stable management team, the president-elect could aim to harness the IC to secure the homeland and U.S. interests abroad.
But his nominations so far for director of the CIA, director of national intelligence, and director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation suggest that he is prioritizing loyalty over expertise.
[…]Trump might launch an all-out attack on what he has called the “deep state”: ostensibly a secretive group of government bureaucrats collaborating to obstruct the Trump agenda, including officers illegally spying on Americans and leaking information to the media.
[…]Trump’s threat to the intelligence community begins with its most basic resource: people.
[…]Trump’s hostile rhetoric could undermine the IC’s functionality.
[…]In his administration’s waning days, he absconded to Mar-a-Lago with highly classified intelligence documents.
[…]Should Trump and his team behave with such disregard, their attitude toward the IC will likely lead to weakened information sharing, with agencies restricting the flow of material for fear that it may be misused.
[…]Given Trump’s record of pursuing policies for personal benefit—his first impeachment took place after he asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Joe and Hunter Biden
[…] Trump’s nomination of Gabbard has raised concern among U.S. allies
[…]In May 2017, The New York Times reported that Trump had even passed Israeli-derived intelligence to Russia’s foreign minister
[…]If Trump does ultimately choose antagonism, U.S. intelligence agencies will face serious challenges in executing their daily operations and in focusing on their core missions.
[…]The IC also has numerous oversight mechanisms it can use to make it harder for Trump’s team to misuse intelligence
[…]Trump’s presidential term is only four years. He is full of bluster, but his bark is often worse than his bite.
[…] The key for intelligence officials will be to avoid distraction and find a way to stay focused on the core missions. By doing so, they can ensure that Trump’s disruptions are temporary

The absolute ARROGANCE of these left-wing nutjobs is disgusting! We the People elected President Trump to be their BOSS.
Well somebody listened and now he’s indoors.
They’re ostensibly worried about their “functionality” but after every single event we read, “he was on the FBI radar”?
China is building 100 coal plants this year.
Ron Wyden says a stupid thing he heard someone on the TV say, and thnks he’s being smart.
Most nearly all of the times I have ever taken time out to listen to these folks speak I end up feeling embarrassed for this country, that we could have such idiots representing us.
Remember when some whacko drove a U-Haul truck into the gates at Lafayette in DC? Unfurled a nazi flag?

FTA: “The then-teen from St. Louis, Missouri, wanted to “attack and destroy” the US government and acknowledged that the President would be killed in the process, prosecutors said in court papers, calling it a plan “as dangerous as they come.”
“He wanted to eliminate the democratic process in America and replace the government with a Nazi-style dictatorship,” they wrote.”
He is actually here on a Green Card from India. He was sentenced to 8 years.
H1b?
No, he had a green card. No idea about why or how…

Bill Gates and Donald Trump Had a Three-Hour Dinner
WSJ
Bill Gates ‘Impressed’ With Trump’s Interest in Global Health During Three-Hour Dinner
Microsoft co-founder says he discussed HIV, polio and global health with president-elect
===================
Bill Gates on his “quite intriguing” dinner with Donald Trump
( 1 min 47 )
I don’t trust anything Bill Gates says. He wants to eliminate us all and he is adamant about it when he’s not talking to someone like President Trump.
JMHO
Michael Shellenberger Exposes Who’s to Blame for the LA Fire Disaster (1:41:00)
Dad Saves America
16 Jan 2025
Shellenberger: I think you have to start with what the conventional story is right now. The conventional story is Los Angeles is a fiery place, they did their best, there was nothing really more that could have been done, that this was inevitable, that there’s fires all the time, climate change is causing these fires, that Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass responded decisively and they did everything they could and that the state was as prepared as possible and these accidents happen. That’s the main story right now. Everything about it is a lie. Nothing about that story is true at all. In fact it’s much worse than anybody realizes at this point. In fact the story is much bigger than people realize.
I didn’t spend to much time “up North” (anything above LA County 😂), but we covered a station in south Tulare county one summer when I worked on one of our wild land engines. As we drove up to the station, which appeared to hardly run a call when we looked at their log book, all I could think of is how surprised I was they don’t have numerous fires: 1,000’s and 1,000’s of acres of grass and oak trees.
The one thing they were missing: dense population which would statistically include some nut job arsonist.
Every summer the grass turns brown. It’s called 1-hour fuel: it takes 1 hour for its moisture content to be affected by the current relative humidity. 1-hour fuels and 10-hour fuels (dead vegetation and smaller branches) are what normal ignites/set on fire. Once the fire gets established, its pre-heats and dries out the 100-hour fuels. When the 100-hour fuels are dry, then it’s game on for large fires that are difficult to contain during high winds………unless there is proper prep work by homeowners and the forestry types (brush clearing, fire breaks, controlled burns before fire season).
In Riverside County we always had a few arsonists running around every summer. They would’ve had a field day.
Don’t forget the meth addicted fire bug homeless, which Schallenberger also mentions as prime culprits. Because he also is an expert on the homeless.
Our nemesis in the desert was homeless in the tamarisk trees. The railroad imported them for wind rows to block sand from blowing across tracks. Unlimited water supply under the ground. You’d burn a large area and within a few years they’d grow back.
Homeless would light fires to keep warm (winter can get chilly) and cook. Lots of diff, feet deep at times. 10’s and 10’s of thousands of gallons of water to put the fires out that were relatively small square footage wise on smaller fires.
There were quite a few who’d been caught starting fires by our prevention officers.
It’s been 3 years since I was up there, everything had burned pretty much from Johnsondale north to near Yosemite. The pack station at Quaking Aspen was gone.
This was 99.
Later on in my career. I had vacation when my engine went up north for the big fires later in the 2000’s. That year we sent 50 “City” engines out, lots of lightning fires in nor cal that year.
This is also for Sunnydaze. This is the initial radio traffic. Probably difficult to decipher for the layman, but here’s some key terms:
DPA – direct protection area (who’s responsible)
Task Force – in LAFD that’s 2 Engines and a Truck Company (ladder truck) (10 fireman – 4 on an Engine, 4 on the truck and 2 on a 200 series engine that’s assigned to the truck)
Light Force – 200 series engine and a Truck
LA County E70 is the engine company assigned to Station 70 in Malibu
Structure defense (used to be structure protection) – the task of staying mobile and attempting to save homes, you don’t engage in a house fire as you would if it’s stand alone, you try to put out small fires and protect the home but once it get fully involved you’re moving on/trying to keep it’s embers from causing more damage
key segments I picked up on:
3:28 – someone asked where the foot of the fire was (starting point), the answer was it appeared to be where the New Year’s Eve fire was, so this tells me it might be a rekindle of a previous fire. My only rekindle in over 10 years as a company officer was that I burned the same house a few hours apart (high winds and heavy construction, for instance triple headers so lots of places embers could get hidden and the high winds allow those embers to take off more so than normal (note: that day that house was out 2nd and 3rd house fire in our first in, busy day)
5:43 – the camp crew (hand crew that fgoes in and cuts line) making its way up to the origin access point notes there’s 1/2 to 1-mile spotting,. In a wind driven fire with that, there’s no way it can be stopped. You can only try to make some headway on the flanks trying to mitigate the lateral spread and attempt to protect homes
Every time you here engine that’s staffed with 4, task force 10 (2 engines and a truck), light force 6 (1 engine and a truck), I don’t know how many are on the hand crews for LAFD and LACoFD, but I think it’s +/-12
This contradicts the attorney’s statement that the fire department was “delayed”. Resources were all over the place, it’s difficult access and you don’t directly attack a fire without an anchor point – it’s unsafe
Great information!!!
Lots of narrative control. This information is the type of information that kills bullsh*t. Narrative control is difficult when this doesn’t support their bullsh*t.
Charlie is referring to Type III fire engines (brush), Type I is “city” engines.
Strike team 1001A would be a Type I strike team consisting of 1 battalion chief and 5 Type I engines. The A at the end designates engine types, C at the end is same configuration but 5 Type III fire engines.
I noticed at the ~ 38 minute mark there were already 3 Type I strike teams in staging. Once a fire, like this appears to be taking off, you order engines in strike teams or closest immediate need. There’s a lag once you arrive at scene and need to place large orders. Ordering strike teams cause somewhat of a delay because, at least our dispatch center did, try to stagger out engines so as to not strip an area – you still have the normal call volume to handle.
The 117M gallon Santa Ynez Reservoir was drained in February so it’s cover could be repaired. A contract for that work was awarded in November. Obviously Pacific Palisades has been receiving water even though this reservoir has been offline since February.
Since fire season was approaching and a contract hadn’t even been awarded yet the reservoir should have been filled so water would be available in the event of fire. It’s still empty and work hasn’t begun.
Why wasn’t it full? Why is it bone dry?
It’s interesting that Janiss “Calamity” Quinones the former VP of Pacific Gas and Electric, now bankrupt due to lawsuits from starting wildfires, was on Mayor Bass’s recommendation appointed CEO of LA Dept of Water and Power last spring – and at twice the pay of her predecessor.
Idiocracy? Incompetence?
That’s why no longer live in CA.
That’s outside the scope of the FD response which has been questioned.
