That idiot Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency due to fire danger in El Dorado County………………………Yesterday.
He’s really on the ball.
How much stuff has to burn down before he declares an emergency?
Well, he generally waits until it hits the news and he has to appear to be doing something.
The only emergency he truly cares about is the recall.
Recall Newsom.
I love the smell of forest fire smoke in the morning.
Rumor has it a successful recall smells like smoke as it approaches.
