It's just another lie.
The same way Donald Trump lies and says that the reason that the California fires back last January were so bad is that
California would not allow the water from the Pacific Northwest to flow from Canada because the California governor Gavin Newsom didn't turn on the faucet.
And Trump says he turned on the faucet and otherwise all of Los Angeles would be burned down.
And it just,
you're like what do you mean is there a faucet what's he just completely made up like everything he's saying is 100 false because he lies about everything and one of the other lies that he is saying although if it was true it actually really wouldn't bother me but one of the lies he says is he goes you know as california rebuilds the pacific palisades
Governor Newsom is prioritizing low income housing in the Palisades over the big wealthy people's mansions that were in the Palisades.
The Palisades where those homes were burned, it's a very wealthy area, multimillion dollar homes.
And one of Trump's things is like,
You can't build low-income housing there.
And by the way, when Trump and these MAGAs refer to low-income housing plans in the Palisades, they're talking about homes on the low end that are like $1.75 million and $2 million.
And they're saying that those are low-income.
Also, Donald Trump said that he signed an executive order
to allow a federal permitting process to allow the homes to be built and and speed up the process of building the homes in altadena and the pacific palisades there's no such thing as a federal permitting process like what do you mean is he make he's making the whole thing up what california needs
is about $40 billion to allow some of these homes to be built, because there are a lot of people who are underinsured.
There's a lot of denial of claims by insurance companies.
And so what's needed, what's holding back construction is federal emergency funding, which Trump and the MAGA Republicans have denied.
But instead, Trump signed a phony executive order saying that he's doing federal permitting
and saying, you see, I did it.
When that's not just a made up thing.
