Ep. 227: Government Hates You: California Wildfires Edition

 

This past week, Los Angeles was devastated by wildfires that raged out of control, due in no small part to political mismanagement that left local firefighting personnel and infrastructure completely unprepared and ill-equipped for the task. The flippant way government prepared and subsequently handled the problem is only the latest example demonstrating the fact that government does not care about its subjects (it never has), and we hope this is the last time many need to see/feel the consequences of that apathy directly in order to learn that lesson. We also discuss the recent MAGA turn on the greatest Congressman of our generation, Thomas Massie, just because he won’t bow down to their godking, Trump, especially when he violates his own (and MAGA’s in general) professed principles.
