‘It’s ridiculous’

The hosts of Fox & Friends Weekend tore into Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) and her city’s “wacko policies” after only a handful of rebuild permits were approved months after the Pacific Palisades fires which destroyed thousands of homes.

Charles Hurt, Rachel Campos-Duffy, and Carley Shimkus all tore into Bass after listening to a report that the first of permits to rebuild destroyed homes have been approved two months after the widespread fires.

“This is the very end of years, decades of wacko policies, red tape and one-party domination in an area,” Hurt said.

Four permits to rebuild were approved by the end of March after dozens of applications were filed, according to the Los Angeles Times, a paper that is also currently suing Bass for access to deleted texts related to the city’s response to the fire. Bass faced immediate pushback as the fires broke out in January as she was not in the country at the time.

The three Fox hosts praised President Donald Trump after watching footage from January in which the president told Bass he’d been informed rebuild permits would not be issued for months. He urged Bass to let people begin rebuilding that very night.
