One of the primary duties of government is to help prevent and fight fires.  The more we know about the Los Angeles fires which caused the loss of more than 12,000 homes the more we realize how inept the entire Los Angeles DEI leadership was and is.  Fresno Land in a story this week also exposed how the US Forest Service refused to allow a controlled burn last year which would have prevented the tragic loss of our ancient redwoods in the Garnet fire.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.
