After California Gov. Gavin Newsom posted an Instagram Story of himself coming to the scene of the Palisades Fire, many criticized him for using the tragedy as a “photo op” while blaming him for the tragedy.
“Gavin Newsom has arrived for the photo op of him watching his state burn to the ground,” controversial account Libs of TikTok wrote alongside the video.
Popular conservative X account Breaking 911 mocked Newsom for showing up to the fire.
“JUST IN: California Gov. Gavin Newsom has showed up to the scene of the Palisades fire to put his hands in his back pockets,” it said.
“Gov Newsom poses for cameras with hands in pockets as fire engulfs homes,” another account wrote.
