O’Keefe Media Group obtained leaked audio of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass defending her trip to Ghana just three days before the wildfires erupted in Los Angeles in early January.
LA’s Democrat Mayor Karen Bass slashed Fire Department funding by $17.6 million a few months before the fires erupted last month.
January’s blaze was the most destructive fire in Los Angeles history and the city was not prepared to contain the fire because of Democrats like Karen Bass.
Karen Bass was tweeting from Africa as her city burned down.
The LA Mayor was actually in Africa attending the presidential inauguration in Ghana as hundreds of thousands of Los Angeles residents evacuated and watched their homes burn down.
Fire hydrants ran dry due to Democrat incompetence but Karen Bass saved the day by tweeting from Africa.
Evacuees in the #PalisadesFire: please head Southbound on Palisades Drive to Westbound Sunset Blvd. to Southbound Pacific Coast Highway.
PCH is closed between Temescal Canyon Rd. and Las Flores Canyon Blvd.

Karen Bass dropped a cryptic warning in a phone call to an anonymous source just a few days before the fires erupted.
In a separate undercover video posted by OMG, a Los Angeles Mayor admitted Bass’s office knew about the incoming wind storm because of a red flag warning.
Per O’Keefe Media Group:
Just three days before fires erupted in the Los Angeles area, Bass issued a cryptic message to our source, advising them to “read in between the lines and hold tight… you will understand soon,” suggesting she was aware of significant developments that would soon impact the city.
Bass also acknowledged the growing dangers surrounding MacArthur Park. “The situation is very dangerous,” she said, citing security concerns. She remained adamant in her refusal to hold a press conference, stating, “I will take the criticism before I do a publicity stunt, and frankly, a press conference at this point in time, which would just be publicity.”
Bass further explained her position, stating, “If I have a choice between that and compromising something, I just have to go along with it. It’s not my area of expertise,” emphasizing her lack of qualifications to make informed decisions regarding the area.
When the source emphasized the safety concerns of residents and property owners MacArthur Park, noting that “41,000 people live within a square mile here,” Bass maintained her stance stating, “But they want to hear that something is going to be done,” making it clear that no action is currently being taken to address security risks.
