Yes. I want to see Gavin and Kamala wearing orange vests, clearing brush along with a prison work crew.

That negligence is absolutely criminal. And unbelievably chicken-sh*t. Afraid to cut down trees and trim brush for fear of angering the pathetic green bugs that infest politics like a plague.
I think Jerry Brown voted a legislative bill requiring PG&E to clear brush around power lines. I read that the Sierra Club sued them to keep them from chopping down trees.
You would think they would change legislation back to how it was. I hear that PG&E is only allowed to clear some 4 to 5 feet away, and it was triple that in older times. Regulators were more concerned about lizards and rodents etc. than about safety around electric lines. Even homeowners were fined if they cleared too much around their properties.
Where’s the money going to come from to do that? Sacramento’s spending all the money on all the wrong things. Not the sensible things like clearing brush and upgrading infrastructure. It’s been like we have teenagers with Daddy’s credit card on a spending spree with the dems in charge.
The citizens who voted those corrupt cretins in will have to learn the hard way I guess. We already knew and voted against them and are very sad to see our state in such dire condition.
Rush had a CA fireman on today and said it was against some CA law to clear the underbrush. Said it had something to to with protecting some critter or insect or something. The spotted owl on steroids I guess.
