Death toll from Camp Fire is rising.

Video contains dead bodies, or, skeletons rather, watch at your own risk.

Yes, Anteater, that's a pretty grisly innovation in violent crime, courtesy of the Brits, but if this guy had been throwing acid out the hotel window, at least the death count would've been lower:-

i) Trump is overseeing policies that exacerbate global warming, which is generally agreed to be a factor contributing to more frequent and more devastating forest fires.
ii) He's also responsible for removing $10 million* from FEMA's annual budget, thus impeding their ability to respond to natural disasters.

* The money has been reallocated to ICE, and in fact:

The transfer was a part of more than $200 million the Department of Homeland Security moved from the budgets of other agencies to ICE’s detention and removals.

So, interviews from witnesses / survivors of the Thousand Oaks shooting claim that ~ 60 of them were also witnesses / survivors in the Las Vegas shooting. What bad luck they have.

No. I’m just saying it’s a pretty nasty time to attack people who work in forestry and really crazy to say you’re going to cut funding when it’s needed most. I quoted you but I didn’t mean to draw a direct line there. I’m just saying that’s what he said and he often threatens California with pulling federal funding like with the sanctuary city ****. I think America needs California much more than California needs America and I would like y’all to a Calexit and have a break up of the union in general. I want America to die. Florida should Flexit.

What do you think it is about Florida that makes it so susceptible to corruption?
