California Shocked as Florida Pre-Deploys Resources Ahead of Natural Disaster

Californians could only look on in awe and envy as Florida pre-deployed emergency resources ahead of the storm that dumped record amounts of snow on the Panhandle this week, rather than waiting until after the damage was done.
As Breitbart News has reported, firefighters in Los Angeles were not pre-deployed to risk spots ahead of the extreme wind event on January 7 and 8, which had been predicted for a week. L.A. Mayor Karen Bass was overseas in Ghana, repeating a pattern established by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who disappeared to Mexico on a family vacation while over a dozen Californians died in a blizzard in March 2023.
Newsom has often targeted Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) over the state’s conservative social policies, but DeSantis has always been able to retort that Florida trounces California on key functions of government, including on how it handles natural disasters.

“DeSantis is not a incompetent retard like Newsom”

Sounds like a Babylon Bee headline, but it does CLEARLY indicate the difference between DEIs running the government (which means having to use the tools developed for non-DEIs) and having merit-based people running the government.
Be interesting if Trump links ALL federal grants to states and lower government to getting rid of DEI and being able to verify exactly that. If they want DEI, they should have to make their voters pay the cost.

IMHO California has a lot of changes to make before I would favor any Federal $$$’s to go there.

NOT mass hysteria...mass Stupidity coupled with the primary explanation of insanity.
