Negligence and Cover-Up Suspected in Pacific Palisades Fire Response

Discover why LA firefighters were allegedly ordered to abandon a smoldering brush fire days before it became the deadly Palisades Inferno, creating grounds for claims of systemic government failure.

Short Summary

  • Firefighters warned superiors via text that the January 1st Lochman fire was still smoldering, but were ordered to withdraw on January 2nd.
  • The LAFD leadership allegedly showed ignorance regarding "holdover fires," contrasting with statements from former chiefs.
  • A critical 113-million-gallon reservoir designated for this area remained unfixed and unfilled for two years prior to suppression efforts.
  • The official narrative pinning the tragedy solely on an arson suspect is challenged amid evidence suggesting gross incompetence or purposeful negligence.

This segment analyzes newly revealed text messages suggesting departmental negligence preceded the catastrophic Pacific Palisades fire. Readers will gain insight into the controversial official response, internal warnings ignored by command, and political implications surrounding disaster recovery efforts in Los Angeles.

Description

The Los Angeles Times is reporting that firefighters were ordered to leave a smoldering brush fire days before it reignited into the deadly Pacific Palisades inferno and that firefighters sent text messages warning their superiors that the ground was still hot and could easily reignite, but were told to pull out anyway. Jimmy criticizes city officials and the Los Angeles Fire Department for negligence, citing the failure to refill a 113-million-gallon reservoir meant for fire emergencies and the apparent ignorance of “holdover fires” among fire chiefs. He also suggests that the blame placed on a single arson suspect may be a cover for government incompetence or ulterior development motives tied to new high-density housing plans.

I just realized something. The more money that a government takes from its citizens the less that money is used to benefit the citizens.

I got kicked off Facebook for this. 1. Mayor Karen Bass was out of the country at the time. ( plausible deniability) 2. No water in the reservoir. 3. Fire Chief sent home over 2000 firefighters that day. 3. Newscum telling reporters he's been in talks with Developers 2 days after the fire. They were TOLD this was going to happen weeks before. Months earlier the insurance companies dropped costumers. This wasn't an accident folks. The upcoming Olympics, World cup, and 2 more events in L.A. Nobody is this incompetent !
