“They got 40 million people in that state and they voting these imbeciles in office, and they continue to do it."

Summary

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) argued that California does not deserve federal aid for its deadly Los Angeles wildfires unless the state adopts changes.

In a Newsmax interview, Tuberville criticized California leadership, falsely attributing wildfire mismanagement to “inner-city woke policies.”

While he expressed willingness to support some funding, he insisted it be conditional on reforms.

The wildfires have killed 24 people and destroyed thousands of homes, per the Associated Press, intensifying debates on state accountability and federal disaster relief.

    I really would hope it wouldn’t need to be said, but uhh everybody deserves disaster relief… California, Alabama, whatever state, or country it happens to be. I really don’t think it’s constructive to engage in angry shit flinging on this topic.
