There are currently five major fires in the Los Angeles area and the destruction has been truly hellish.

According to the Los Angeles Times’ fire tracker, the Lydia fire is the most contained. The Palisades fire has destroyed over 2,000 homes, businesses and buildings and killed at least five people. It is being called “one of the most destructive firestorms to hit the region in memory.”

There is a lot of blame going around for Democratic leaders in the state who cut funding to the Los Angeles Fire Department, rolled back fire management programs, and scaled back logging, which could reduce fire hazards in the state. All of that is valid but authorities have not confirmed the source of any of the fires.

In Paradise, California, when authorities tried to mitigate fire risks with controlled burns, residents complained enough to halt the burns, according to national disaster expert and forest debris expert John Balobeck. He says that before California was so populace, these fires were regular and less consequential and even helpful to the forest fauna. But with the opposition to forestry and controlled burns and current draught conditions, fires like this are more devastating.

So is the blame game really all that easy? It’s not. Democrats don’t seem to have helped but they don’t seem to be the sole cause either.

Politicians in the U.K. voted not to set up an inquiry into a grooming gang scandal. Not interested really.

The scandal is this: recent data shows that “foreign nationals are more than three times as likely to be arrested for sexual offences as British citizens.” The government published this data, validating what citizens already knew. 364 British MPs voted against a measure for a new inquiry.

Conservative politicians asked for an inquiry but MPs voted it down because, they say, they already had several inquiries into this matter. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that more inquiries would only delay help for victims.

What inquiries is he referring to? This data is not new to the government, it is new to the public.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says that the government is running “a cover up” by refusing an inquiry.

President Trump posted a video of Columbia professor Jeffery Sachs “sharply criticizing US Middle East policy and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s role in leading the US into wars.”

Color me surprised. Sachs is one of the most informed antiwar voices on the Middle East and Ukraine and it is rare that leaders reference him.

In the video, Sachs calls Netanyahu “a deep, dark son of a bitch” who led the US into multiple follies in the Middle East and now wants America to fight a war with Iran on Israel’s behalf.

“Netanyahu had, from 1995 onward, the theory that the only way we’re going to get rid of Hamas and Hezbollah is by toppling the governments that support them. That’s Iraq, Iran and Syria. The guy is nothing if not obsessive.” He continues, “He’s gotten us into endless wars and because of the power of all of this in U.S. politics, he’s gotten his way.”

Sachs blames President Barack Obama for acting on behalf of Netanyahu by launching a CIA operation in Syria to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad, ignoring intelligence that this would backfire with an Islamic Caliphate.

Does this mean that the President-elect will not pacify Netanyahu with American blood any more? Does this mean that he has real informed antiwar advisors? Could it be!?

Netanyahu has reportedly canceled his plans to attend President Trump’s inauguration.

A federal court has struck down the Biden administration’s new Title IX rules due to a lawsuit from the state of Tennessee.

The Biden administration revised Title IX rules last year and it would have expanded access to female programs to men. It would have allowed men access to girls sports, girls locker rooms, girls dorms, girls scholarships, etc. It would have allowed for what was called “kangaroo courts,” or secret campus hearings that could punish anyone who was accused of violating regulations without a right to a fair trial. It was an antifeminist scam.

Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti sued and a federal judge ruled in his favor. The court ruled that the new Title IX does “violate the Constitution, and [is] the result of arbitrary and capricious agency action.”

The Trump-appointed Department of Education and the Justice Department is unlikely to further appeal the case meaning these rules will likely die here on the vine for the time being.
