A 6.4 magnitude earthquake struck Southern California on Thursday, officials said. The quake hit the Kern County community of Searles Valley, about 160 miles northeast of Los Angeles, CBS Los Angeles reported.

The United States Geological Survey said the quake struck at 10:33 a.m. PT. The earthquake was initially given a magnitude of 6.6, but was later revised to 6.4.

No injuries were immediately reported Thursday, the San Bernardino County Fire Department said. They said buildings and roads "sustained varying degrees of damage."

The center and breeding place for every demented, perverted, evil, liberal attack on tradition, normalcy, and decency hit by a massive earthquake. How odd...

On Fox they were desperate for blood and destruction.

It was sad.

Same on other outlets I’m sure.

Glad it seems to have just been a roller 5 miles down at the end of the San Andrea’s fault.

I lived through a couple of quakes when I lived in San Diego.

I thought they were fun.

It was caused by President Trump’s filling Washington DC with columns of US Army Abrams tanks, Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, and other military hardware.

ONE from above simply showing His Disfavor.
Remember when He caused cracks in the Washington Monument (DC) at the time BO was in office
His Wrath is understandable.

I was a little to cavalier with that comment.

Remember the freeway collapse in LA.

Pray everyone is okay across the board.

Just off the phone with my buddy who lives near the epicenter.

Aside from breaking dishes and knocking a foot of water out of his pool, they are all fine including the house.

Another fault in close proximity to the long faults that run down the West Coast offshore and affect our western states.

It causes me to ponder if we are seeing the precursors to some larger quakes to come. Pressure is released, and pressure nearby builds.

Nobody can predict such things, but I always get a bit antsy when I see movement in regions that may affect our large western faults.

Actually it all came from NYC and previously Russia.

I hope that California provides counseling for the traumatized Desert Tortises out there in the Mojave.
