In #LosAngelesFires this year's rainfall was only 0.2 inches (essentially meaning drought), compared to the 34-year average of 4.5 inches. That’s 22 times less.
In response, the #LA Mayor cut funding for the Fire Department by $18m and increased police funding by $126m.

The American people are trapped between the #California Democrats imposing austerity on fire prevention budgets, and #Trump who's preparing to withdraw the country from all international climate agreements.
Nothing will change if people don't oust them.

We are raising funds to support local animal rescue organisations. Shelters are overwhelmed, rescue efforts are stretched to their limits, and the need for immediate action has never been greater.
Please share this and consider helping. Even 5 dollars matter.

#USA, land of the free.
#Pasadena, #Eaton and #HollywoodHills are being eaten by flames due to extraordinary dry land & unusual winds.
@realdomaldtrump.bsky.social is preparing to withdraw the country from all international climate agreements, so I guess it all makes sense now.

#America is the only place on earth where rich people are allowed to defund civil protection systematically, then pay for private firefighters to save their mansions while pushing poor people to pay for access to #lafires evacuation maps.
What a f* disgrace.

Rest assured.
The West hailed people's resistance in #SouthKorea after the latter started gaining ground, but they would have been just as fine supporting the coup if no one had stood up.

I'm waiting to see who from all those #NATO apologists and warmongers who had the bright idea to fuel a new all out European war, is ready to fight in it risking his own life.

It was about time.
History will remember the leaders of the bloodiest war machinery of the past 70 years—responsible for dozens of thousands of murdered civilians, women, and children—as global barbarians, because of today's #ICC ruling.

And this is how the #UK is finally entering a peripheral war by risking the safety of its population and infrastructure for the sake of #NATO 's expansion to the East.
We've seen this before, and it didn't end up well.

Στην χώρα που η ΕΛΑΣ δεν μπορεί να εντοπίσει ολόκληρα βαγόνια, ανακάλυψε υποτίθεται ένα αποτύπωμα σε μια σακούλα ενός διαμερίσματος ενός ορόφου μιας πολυκατοικίας που καταστράφηκε ολοσχερώς απο έκρηξη και φωτιά.
