  4. Nothing to see here. Who needs a functioning government to coordinate aid over multiple states? I’m sure it makes more sense to cut rich people’s taxes and let the poors bootstrap it.

  6. I wonder if there is a magic faucet trump can order opened to help? Like he did in CA

  7. Obviously, North Carolina has their faucet closed, and South Carolina didn’t rake their forests good enough last fall.

  8. Ah yes, south carolina, they been voting the most anti-environmentalism politicians, most especially on climate change matters, for many decades…that part was the sowing, this part is the reaping.

  9. Feel for the folks affected by this, but yeah, the other comments here about DOGE and FEMA.

  10. Awful. As someone in Southern CA, I feel for the families and animals evacuating and in danger today. Hope everyone is ok and makes steps toward a better future after this.

  11. Can’t Trump just take a Sharpie to the map and move the wildfire like he did that Hurricane?

  12. Just curious if the impacted areas are dark blue, dark red or purple?

    On the one hand, I hate to see anybody suffer. But on the other hand, with professionals seriously contemplating the potential for climate driven human extinction, there might be a small silver lining if Republican areas are hammered by climate catastrophe repeatedly and severely until we see a change in the Republican Party on this issue.

    Disclaimet: if anybody is out there doing Eco terrorism to try to make that happen faster than nature is doing it, I would have to disqualify myself from your jury because I would be predisposed to vote guilty, and expect a harsh penalty

  14. I thought God only targeted blue states with a wrath of fire?

  15. Don’t worry their fire department aren’t DEI hired so they’ll stop the fire really fast when no damage. /s

  16. BTW… which of the Carolinas still hasn’t recovered from the little bit of rain they had last year. They were complaining how they got no fed assistance then. Well, now they are going to find out what no fed assistance is.
