California’s working class overlooked amid wildfires, US rep says
 
(NewsNation) — Natural disasters do not discriminate against their victims. From celebrities in the Hollywood Hills to residents in nearby towns, people are grieving the loss of their communities, homes, belongings and memories from the Palisades Fire and other wildfires.

However, one official says the working class, particularly in Altadena, California, is being overlooked.
 
“Altadena has working people, people who may not have enough money by which to go and rent a hotel, maybe for, you know, months to come,” said Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., on NewsNation’s “CUOMO” Friday night. “I would like to ask you and any other media individuals that may be listening to do everything that you can to get attention on Altadena.”

She said the area “has just about been flattened.”

By "working class" I'm sure she means black renters and illegal immigrants.  I haven't heard yet one sob story about how hard the fires have been on illegals.  I'm sure holloweird would have an absolute melt down ($$$$$) against the site if someone were to print one.

In the real world, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altadena,_California#2020 , Altadena is ~42% white, ~17% black, etc., ordinary residents, not mostly illegals.

Altadena is not in Mad Maxine's district and may not be in the district neighboring hers. She just has a loud mouth and is correct in the sense that Pacific Palisades is getting most of the MSM attention.

So, she's just trying to stir the witch's cauldron for whatever reason?

Likely Auntie Maxine just has a loud mouth and spewing her liberal gibberish as usual.

I suspect many, if not most, of the people residing in Pacific Palisades, Malibu, and even Brentwood are "working people," too, you stupid California raisin.

Pacific Palisades, Malibu, and Brentwood have retail/food workers, trades and contractor workers, and service (legal, banking, accounting, etc.) workers? Who knew?

While Mad Maxine is trying to play the Economic Envy Card, I have seen economic-envy stereotyping from conservative sources, as well.

Working people: people who work. They earn money to do a job, regardless of pay level. They live everywhere, and also can be affected by the fires. The fire didn't look at tax returns before burning down houses.

I remember Mad Max making the same plea for those in North Carolina….Oh, wait.

North Carolina is across the country, while Altadena is in the same metro area as Mad Maxine's district. Altadena is closer to home for Mad Maxine.

Irrelevant to her asking the media to get the word out for Americans in need of help due to disaster. Mad Max doesn’t give squat about her district or anyone else, she is just attention whoring.

If California is ignorant enough to keep electing her, Newscum, and Pelousie. They get the government they deserve.
I feel bad for those that are suffering, but hope they are learning their lesson.
