Donald Trump promised almost a year ago that he'd "take care" of rebuilding after the Los Angeles firestorms, but survivors are still waiting for him to officially ask Congress for relief.
It's long past time for Trump to wake up and do his job.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

Yet again, actual data show wind and solar are the least expensive power on the grid (and getting cheaper by the day). So the Trump administration is just lying about that.

Seeing this news is so weird for me because in 1989 when I was a baby 25-year-old corporate litigator in Manhattan, one of the first things I worked on was Warner Communications Inc.'s defense against a hostile takeover bid from Paramount Communications Inc.

California asked the Trump Administration back in February to request relief from Congress for the Los Angeles fires.
Nearly 11 months later, Trump has failed to send Congress that request — and his FEMA won't even schedule a meeting to discuss it.
