Mayor Bass Criticized for Wildfire Response

News summary

Reality star Khloe Kardashian has criticized Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for her handling of the city's wildfires, calling her a 'joke' due to budget cuts that allegedly hindered the fire department's response. Fire Chief Kristin Crowley publicly expressed concerns over the budget cuts, which Kardashian highlighted on her social media. This criticism has been met with backlash, as many have pointed out the Kardashian family's own history of excessive water usage during previous droughts. Mayor Bass, who was abroad during the initial outbreak of the fires, has faced scrutiny for her absence and prior commitments not to travel internationally. Despite the backlash, Bass's spokesperson states that she is focused on securing resources and recovery efforts. The wildfires have caused significant damage, with at least 24 deaths and thousands displaced.
