California's Red Tape Handicaps Recovery

1/13/25

Hour 3  

Vince speaks with Thomas Catenacci, Reporter for the Washington Free Beacon about the red tape in California that prevented the state from adequately protecting itself from wildfires.  LA Fire Chief Kristin Crowley tells Jake Tapper that the 17M budget cut impacted her ability to carry out her mission. LA's $750,000-a-year water chief who allegedly oversaw the emptying of the Santa Ynez Reservoir, previously said the "number one" thing she cared about in her role was "equity."  A petition to recall Karen Bass has reached over 100,000 signatures.
