  I think everyone knew this was coming. They torture the homeowners who lost their homes, could give two shits about the people who invested in their properties and funded the infrastructure and beauty of the area, lie about their intentions, and then steal property the only way democrats know how to do; force them out with regulations and fines.

  The amazing thing about this? They will still vote democrat.

  Not everyone. HHusky was applauding Newsom for saying words about cutting red tape that all rational people knew was bullshit at the time.

  You have to be exceptionally gullible, dishonest, or both to be in the core of the Democrat Cult.

  Just like Newsom said some words he didn't mean about men having a physical advantage over women in sports. But then when the rubber hit the road he is all in on defending tranny hill. Like all the past dems from Clinton through barry and biden claiming to be for protecting the border and deporting illegals. Then we could try on barry and gay marriage. Leftards lie and like the dazzler, loved to be lied to.

  Democrats were actually trying to say that the GOP opposing a bill that allowed a minimum of 4000 illegals to cross the border each day was the reason that border policy couldn’t be changed.

  Blatant lies now that Trump has almost totally shut down the border but the Adam cult members just move on to support the next lie.

  That's a double win for Fetterman in all honesty.

  Not really. There was never a chance. And lockstep democrats are part of the reason

  60 votes were needed

  When the rubber hits the road Fetterman votes the same as Elizabeth Warren. Fetterman was the key dem vote for Biden's Make Inflation Greater Act which was a hatchet aimed at Pennsylvania's big natural gas fracking operations. Same with West Virginia's Manchin who then complained when Team Dementia patient broke their promises to him.

  Who could have seen this coming?

  As Predicted, Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are Refusing to Allow People to Rebuild Their Houses in the Pallisades.
  The Plan is to Starve Them Out and Offer Them Pennies on the Dollar for Their Property, to Build Low-Income Apartments.

  —Ace

  Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass promised Californians who lost their homes in their engineered firestorm that there would be reduced red-tape to allow reconstruction to begin within weeks.

  More than six months later, not a single home has been rebuilt. In fact, not a single construction has even started.

  People suspected that Newsom and Bass would not let this crisis go to waste and would seize people's property in order to build apartment buildings for the poor.

  That's exactly what they're doing. They're refusing to grant permits to let people rebuild, so that their multimillion-dollar properties become effectively valueless.

  Then they're going to offer peanuts to buy these distressed, deliberately-impoverished landowners out.

  Right Angle News Network @Rightanglenews

  BREAKING - The California Senate has passed SB 549, granting LA County authority to purchase fire‑destroyed lots for minimal cost and convert them into low‑income housing, directly contradicting Gavin Newsom's previous assurance to homeowners that such government‑driven property conversions wouldn't happen.

  Beege Wellborne wrote about this last week.

  Adam Carolla predicted this. (Video below the fold).

  Beege Wellborne writes: "You knew he was right."

  That sick feeling only grew as months passed. The empty words of a nervous-as-a-cat Bass, defensively deflecting Donald Trump's directions to make residents as whole as possible as soon as possible, hang in the air still.

  In hard-hit Altadena alone, the rebuilding process six months later is sucking the lives and hope out of people.

  And every dime they ever had.

  ...Addressing the concerns of homeowners at a recent community meeting, Barger told them, "You have lost so much, you shouldn't have to worry about permitting fees getting in the way of rebuilding your home. For most families, these fees may have exceeded $20,000. That's a barrier we cannot allow to stand."

  The deferral of fees only applies to people who lived in their own single-family homes before the fire. It does not apply to non-owner-occupied rental properties, multi-family housing units or commercial structures.

  The county estimates that if 60% of homeowners in Altadena and elsewhere in unincorporated Palisades rebuild, it would amount to $84 million in building permit fees.

  Permitting is only one hurdle. For most, state and local building codes have changed in the decades since many of these homes were originally built, meaning the house has to have changes and extras that insurance covering a like-to-like rebuild does not account for.

  "It adds expenses that we didn't expect. Like, solar is required on all new builds, and so is the easement from the property line. It's got to be five feet now and ours was only three," says Toomey, as she stands under a backyard oak tree that survived.

  "And insurance doesn't pay for that stuff. That's on us," Silvernail adds.

  Soil sampling is now required, and that tacks another $5000-$8000 onto the process.

  The very long and tedious process, which is beginning to look as if it's specifically designed to soak as much money out of the homeowner as possible before they give up in disgust and move elsewhere.

  There have been only an unconscionable 44 building permits approved in LA County since the fires.

  This is what liberals/democrats do. They are literally trying to starve the people out so that they can build in their own good feelings image. This is what racist democrats did back in the day. They are just using the same old playbook.

  Never thought I would see this in the good old USA but what we are witnessing is a repeat of the worst of our country's history. Throw in the hatred of Jews on the left and you get an even clearer picture.
