This is going to take years. To a different state. I mean, remember what happened, Katrina, when all those folks evacuated New Orleans? New Orleans still hasn't recovered. A lot of them fled to Houston. Many of them never came back. Once they were uprooted and gone, they stayed.

I think a lot of these people who are leaving the state to go stay with family elsewhere, packed up the car and drove away, many of them may not come back. Man, man.

Knew right away it was going to be a catastrophe. And actually, it was recently, about three weeks ago, four weeks ago, I wrote an op-ed before all this. Are you serious? I wrote an op-ed and appeared on foxnews.com saying, we are not ready to fight wildfire in this country. Our system is fundamentally broken, and we have a big one coming, and we're not ready.

I wrote a book about it two years ago called Mudslingers about aerial firefighting. And 100% of the proceeds of that book go to fallen and injured wildland firefighters. I don't make a cent off it. But in the book, I wrote about it too. I said, I've been fighting fires for almost a decade. Now, I'm not an expert. This guy's been doing it for 30, 40, 50 years.

Let's talk about our firefighters. You know, a structure firefighter in whatever city you're in. You dial 911.

By national code, National Fire Protection Association, NFPA 491710, they have a whole list of codes. There will be a big red fire truck at your front door in about five minutes, 20 seconds.

We may not need them every day, but when we need them, we need them. And we fucking need them right away. We do the same thing with our police officers, same thing with our military. Right now, our firefighters have been staring at the barrel of a 40% pay cut, our wildland firefighters. We pay our wildland firefighters like hourly seasonal employees.
