Schiff Snubs Trump’s Trip To California To Tour Wildfire Areas

Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff will not join President Donald Trump on his visit Friday to see the devastation of the wildfires in California.

A spokesperson for Schiff told reporters that the lawmaker must stay in Washington, DC, for nomination votes rather than helping his state.

“Senator Schiff greatly appreciates the President’s visit to see the devastation of these wildfires firsthand and the invitation to accompany him,

and regrets that he’s unable to join the President in Los Angeles due to scheduled nomination votes. Senator Schiff is committed to working with the Trump Administration,

state and local leaders, as well as his colleagues on both sides of the aisle, to ensure that California gets the aid and support it needs to rebuild and recover from these wildfires,” the spokesperson said.

Using the first trip of his second administration, Trump traveled to areas where politics have influenced the response to catastrophic catastrophes on Friday, visiting wildfire-ravaged Los Angeles and hurricane-battered North Carolina.

Former President Joe Biden’s administration’s response to Hurricane Helene in North Carolina has drawn criticism from the Republican president.

Trump told reporters as he was leaving the White House that “we’re going to get it fixed up” and that “it’s been a horrible thing the way that’s been allowed to fester” since the hurricane struck in September.

Additionally, Trump has called out California authorities for water restrictions that he wrongly claimed made the latest fires worse.

“I would like to examine a fire that could have been extinguished if they had allowed the water to flow, but they did not,” he stated.

Following a briefing on recovery efforts in North Carolina, Trump will visit a tiny village outside of Asheville to speak with locals who have benefited from the work of Samaritan’s Purse, a humanitarian organization led by Franklin Graham, an evangelical leader.

Trump intends to visit the Pacific Palisades neighborhood in California, where countless homes were destroyed by fire. He is anticipated to be briefed on the ongoing fires, which have forced thousands of people to evacuate.

THE DOG THEY WANTED US TO PUT DOWN IS THE ONLY REASON MY DAUGHTER SLEEPS THROUGH THE NIGHT 🐾💔 We rescued Tank six months after the divorce. The shelter labeled him “unadoptable” — too big, too strong, with a presence they called intimidating. But I saw how he flinched when someone raised their voice. How he gently sat down when my daughter Leila peeked at him through the kennel bars. He didn’t bark. He just waited. Against everyone’s advice, I brought him home. Leila was five and hadn’t slept through the night since her dad left. The nightmares. The crying. The 3 a.m. sobbing fits. It shattered me. Therapists tried to help, but nothing worked. Then one night, Leila crawled onto the couch where Tank had dozed off like a tired old bear. She tucked herself beside him and whispered, “Don’t worry, I’ve got nightmares too.” Tank didn’t move. But she stayed there. All night. Peacefully. After that, she called him her “dream bouncer.” She said the bad dreams couldn’t get in when Tank was there. It was working. She was healing. Until someone in the building complained. Said there was a dangerous dog in the complex. That their child was “terrified.” Management showed up with a clipboard and a thin threat. “Remove the dog… or face consequences.” I looked at Tank, curled beside Leila, her tiny hand resting on his ear… And I knew exactly what I had to do. But I also knew one thing for sure: I wasn’t going down without a fight. 👇 (Full story in the first comment)
