Photos: Otherworldly Scenes Unfold as Thomas Fire Burns into the Night – HOLLY NOTE: If you have time, take a few minutes and look through these photos. What our fellow Americans are enduring is heartrending, unimaginable. At least equal to cops, if not more so, we are in awe of firefighters. They wear about 75 pounds in helmet, hood, pants, coat, gloves, boots and air pack, plus the equipment they carry. They wear suffocatingly hot protective clothing even in 100+ degree temps. Yesterday, we watched a CA firefighter stagger and fall due to heat exhaustion. Every fire they face an unpredictable menace that can change directions in a second. Sometimes they are caught as in the 2013 Arizona fires when 19 hotshots were killed. Surrounded by walls of flame, even their fireshield blankets couldn't save them. Often they can't see through the smoke and adding in extreme conditions like the Santa Annas firefighters are dealing with now… pray for them. Already so many Californians have lost everything. More than 400 structures have burned in Ventura alone. In a CNN aerial video, it showed dozens of home ablaze in one neighborhood, making it look like a hellish red and black checkerboard. While most Americas are happily shopping for Christmas and Hanukkah and making holiday plans, Californians are going through hell. Please remember them, pray for them, and help if you are so moved.

So she's throwing verbal jabs at Trump at every opportunity even though she A) looks like the ingrate Trump called her in the face of all the aid sent to Puerto Rico and B) mayor of neighboring cities praised Trump, the Coast Guard and FEMA for all of their efforts and help. She had plenty of time to get a shirt made that read "Help Us People Are Dying". Maybe she should have been getting busy more and whining/campaigning less. Oh yeah, and a 'thank you' sprinkled in here and there wouldn't have hurt either.
