What I do say is that we need to really now, I think, call out why the President of the United States and Congress has refused to provide support to those that have been victimized by this arsonist and this devastation.
$39 billion for months and months and months.
And the President of the United States has said nothing
Speaker of the House said he's not interested in helping the American people that were devastating lives torn asunder here in Los Angeles.
