Danny Trejo Criticizes Kardashian's Firefighter Pay Remarks

Danny Trejo has criticized Kim Kardashian for her comments advocating higher pay for incarcerated firefighters amid the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. Trejo, who has past experience as an inmate firefighter, believes Kardashian is politicizing the tragedy instead of focusing on the immediate needs of those affected by the fires. He argues that while the pay of incarcerated firefighters is low, they volunteer for the role and receive significant sentence reductions, which he claims are valued more than monetary compensation. Kardashian highlighted on Instagram the disparity in pay, noting that the $1 per hour rate has not been adjusted for inflation since 1984. However, Trejo insists that now is not the time for such discussions, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing the victims who have lost everything. The controversy arises as multiple wildfires continue to burn in the Los Angeles area, with significant damage and loss.
