@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline @JonVigliotti @Elex_Michaelson CBS News official bio: “Jonathan Vigliotti is a CBS News correspondent based in Los Angeles.” His reporting appears on CBS Evening News, Sunday Morning, etc. cbsnews.com

@ElsaLongden @montana91002 @cwebbonline @JonVigliotti @Elex_Michaelson Yeah, he's a commentator. Not a professional

FLASHBACK: This was back in February. Did people not listen to Spencer Pratt’s sister? She literally warned folks: “A vote for him is a vote for stupidity.” And I’ll add that he has no qualifications to run anything, let alone the second-largest city in the US.

@adgirlMM Voting for a common sense candidate after living through the wreckage of the so-called “experienced” leadership of utterly negligent Bass makes me open to trying something else! Excellent perspective from @JeremyCom who I wish would run for local office! x.com/jeremycom/stat…

@adgirlMM He literally pled guilty. Mayor Bass’ SENIOR deputy in charge of our public safety was out on leave - and she KNEW it and went to Ghana anyways. Jeez…

Dear Los Angeles, See what's going on in Garden Grove? This is the type of crisis situation mayors (and governors) have to deal with. It's very serious, and requires an understanding of how to work with authorities and the ability to make informed decisions quickly - because people's lives are at stake. Sure, it's Orange County. But LA is always one earthquake, one terror attack, one violent riot, or one uncontained wildfire away from the next crisis. Choose someone with more experience than being on a reality tv show, and selling crystals.

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline @joey_tuccio @spencerpratt Oh - maybe you’re worried about the animal rights for the rats which Bass has let infiltrate homeless encampments leading to a friggin’ Typhus epidemic? Yeah, sure…vote for Bass. Ha! x.com/abc7/status/20…

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline Btw — If you are truly an animal rights advocate HOW in the world do you disparage everything @joey_tuccio has been reporting and how @spencerpratt has laser focused the conversation about skid row animal abuse under mayor Bass administration?!!!

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline The guy, being interviewed on national CNN @JonVigliotti by established, well respected LA news anchor @Elex_Michaelson is just a ‘commentator? You won’t acknowledge him as a journalist because it hurts your straw man arguments?

@ElsaLongden @montana91002 @cwebbonline Also, I just wanted to point out, this guy being interviewed is a commentator, not an expert. He got famous for being the first one to report Kobe's helicopter crash.

Fyi - mayor BASS is the one who wrote the emergency orders for rebuilding ‘eligible’ rebuilds allowing 110% size rebuilds and zero additional regulations. Plus adding ADU’s are eligible which increases population density to a town that already has evacuation challenges. So I guess BASS is one who’s “stupid as fuck” in your eloquent wording. Those of us struggling along here to rebuild are voluntarily upgrading fire hardening with no city requirement to do so by your favorite mayor. But yeah…enjoy criticizing from your OC vantage point.

@ElsaLongden @montana91002 @cwebbonline I know many people that lived out there and the last thing they need is a dumb fuck mayor deregulating shit and building things the way they were to have the same exact thing happen again. Anyone promoting that needs to get the fuck away because they're stupid as fuck.

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline You’ve now gone quiet @TimesofCharles — so I’ll assume video evidence of a dozen firetrucks in the village midday on 1/8 is enough for you to finally understand there was NO WATER?! Here’s a new interview on Mayor Bass’ negligent command: x.com/elex_michaelso…

Here’s your proof Mr Bully. This was taken on January 8th as the Chase bank in the Palisades Village started on fire. This is not high up in the Highlands! Notice all the fire engines sitting idle not even bothering to pull out hoses because they had NO WATER!!!! Or are you suggesting the firefighters just wanted to let it burn due to negligence?

Again — semantics Mr. Bully of fire victims. If you turn on a faucet or hydrant and NOTHING comes out there is ‘no water’. How does your dumb water pressure argument have anything to do with the fact that hydrants ‘ran dry’ which = no water coming out of them. Water is a magical substance that firefighters use to fight fires…but that seems incomprehensible to you!

@montana91002 @ElsaLongden @cwebbonline No, it was water pressure. Are you incapable of comprehension?

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline Here you go: smdp.com/malibu-sues-st…

Amen! Plus criminal negligence from leadership which led to 12 Palisades/Malibu elderly & disabled residents being horrifyingly burned alive due to botched evacuations. If you turn on a faucet or hydrant and nothing comes out you say there’s “NO WATER” or that it’s “run dry”. Not sure why anyone challenging this verbage for semantics. I wish all Angelenos would drive through the Palisades and take in the devastation that bad leadership caused.

@TimesofCharles @ElsaLongden @cwebbonline I think they're referring to the Palisades area. They did run out of water that FFs have always relied on because the reservoir was empty. 118 million gallons of H2O not available during fire season. That's failed leadership of the City, FD, water dept, etc.

If you turn on a faucet and nothing comes out, you’d say there’s “no water” — right? Semantics about the ‘system’ having water don’t change the facts on the ground. I was there: fire trucks sitting idle since there was no water coming from hydrants while buildings burned in front of my eyes. Friends had dry hoses and were using buckets of pool water to extinguish spot fires. The LA Times and loads of other news have reported it. The governor ordered an investigation. The LAFD hired a Hollowood PR firm to save them and the mayor from ‘reputational harm’ (email proof in lawsuit!). But you still propagate the fantasy that for what? Why not believe victims with eyewitness account The empty Santa Ynez Reservoir’s 117 million gallons would have made a difference - It was not inconsequential.

@montana91002 @ElsaLongden @cwebbonline You're definitely regurgitating the lie that Los Angeles ran out of water like a retarded person.

@TimesofCharles @montana91002 @cwebbonline You won’t believe my eyewitness account that there was no water to fight the fire in Palisades? Ok - how about the LA Times ?

@geemann2020 @cwebbonline He addresses the winds in his post debate reporting. x.com/elsalongden/st…

@ElsaLongden @cwebbonline Your house burned down because a 100mph wind storm, once in a generation, blew threw LA during a drought and nearly zero percent humidity perfect storm. It's really that simple. If you think ANYONE was stopping it, you are a fool.

I personally witnessed with my own 2 eyes the Chase bank building go up in flames on 1/8 with 4 for trucks sitting on the street in front of it with NO WATER. Why do you feel the need to say lies to fire victims who are first hand witnesses? You, sir, are the one misrepresenting facts.

@montana91002 @ElsaLongden @cwebbonline No. The water never ran out. Only idiots that aren't informed and go off what idiots on social media say say what you're saying. You are just repeating lies.
