As California fire patients continue to suffer irreparable loss without help or compassion from incompetent Democrat officials, Donald Trump’s Secretary of Housing and Urban Development ( HUD), Scott Turner, came to the position to meet with patients.

The Southeastern California burns, exacerbated by fire and foolish Democrat decision-making (especially weather alarming limits ), utterly consumed vast swathes of property and homes. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass also seemed completely unwilling to accept any duty for the incompetence of the crisis. But Trump and his management are trying to tell the fire victims that not all state officials are so careless.
At Marquez Charter Elementary School, Turner met nearby residents and religious leaders on March 6, according to Breitbart. ” I wanted you to know that from the Trump presidency, and especially from HUD and our group, that we’re here for you, to help you, and to understand how we can come alongside of you, the community, churches, families, businesses, in this time— and it’s a catastrophic time for our country, and for you individually”, Turner told them.

He emphasized,” But I wanted you to know that I’m below, and I’m willing and able to help and to offer”. On X, Turner posted,” Tomorrow, I heard testimonies from broken people, ministers, priests, and community leaders who have been left behind in the midst of the Palisades fires. We’re here to help the people of L. A. and provide solutions” . ,

Newsom certainly shouldn’t be in charge of any recovery efforts or taxpayer-funded aid after his shameful behavior.
Turner heard from residents with a variety of experiences of the Palisades Fire: those who lost their homes, those who lost both their insurance and their homes, and those whose homes were still standing, and who are trying to return.
In downtown Los Angeles, Secretary Turner also toured the Dream Center, a faith-driven shelter for the homeless.

President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump visited Los Angeles in January and toured the fire ruins. At the time, some fires were still burning in the state. Amidst the fire devastation, Newsom announced ,$ 50 million to” Trump-proof” California before demanding billions in taxpayer money from the Trump administration.
