L.A. Mayoral Candidate Relays Story of Karen Bass Purposefully Blocking to Rush Permits After L.A. Wildfire Because Trump Suggested It

EXCERPT:

PRATT: “You know — so, I was just at this community thing and one of the people was on a commission. This is one of the craziest things I’ve heard. And after the Palisades fire, there was a Zoom with all the commissioners. She said there was, like, 150. She said, you can ask my 12-year-old daughter, she witnessed it. And Karen Bass gets on and she says, oh yeah, Trump just said about rushing the permits — it was after that fire. And she’s like, I’m not going to do any of what he said. And that lady who was at that meeting said, that’s when I resigned from the commission. She said it was the most, she said, these are — all these people who lost their homes and she’s doing this politics thing about 7,000 homes burned down.”
