Mayor Karen Bass (@MayorOfLA) ~ From cutting red tape, to expediting the rebuild process, to working hand-in-hand with the incredible U.S. Army Corps of Engineers team on debris removal, Los Angeles is on track for one of the fastest disaster recoveries in state history.
DataRepublican (small r) (@DataRepublican) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} Did your disaster recovery plan involve building a time machine and jumping seven months ahead? Because that’s the only way this post makes sense.
Kieran Eleison (@KieranEleison) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} I suppose ... if 7 permits in 8 months is your idea of fast.
ag (@_AvalleyG_) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} I drive through there several times a week. You are straight up LYING. It looks like a desert wasteland. No activity at all.
Ian Miller (@ianmSC) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} This is completely insane. There’s virtually no rebuilding happening in L.A. It’s nearly 8 months after the fires & in unincorporated Palisades there’s been 2 single family rebuilding permits issued. Zero buildings have completed construction in either unincorporated area. Zero.
Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} Fastest in history? You’ve issued like five permits in eight months and almost nothing has been done. Ron DeSantis rebuilt a bridge in three days after Hurricane Ian.
Lance Christensen (@lancelands) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} Democratic leaders live in an alternative reality in California. It's amazing how much of a spell they have over people.
Jerry Grey (@Jerry__Grey) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA} I mean - this is pure gaslighting.

Mayor Karen Bass (@MayorOfLA) ~ With rising temps, @LADWP is reminding Angelenos to conserve electricity and help prevent strain on our power grid.
Here’s how you can help:
🌡️ Set your A/C to 78°F
🕓 Use big appliances before 4PM or after 9PM.
💡 Turn off lights & electronics when not in use.
🔌 Unplug chargers & devices
Report power outages at http://ladwp.com/outages or by calling 1-800-DIAL-DWP (1-800-342-5397).
Phoeni𝕏 2A (@Phoenix2A_1980s) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} LOL. Your city is a dumpster fire! 😂
Paul A. Szypula (@Bubblebathgirl) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} Speaking of temps, you’re being sued by your former fire chief. Have fun with that.
Cryssie (@CryssieGA) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} But hey, at least your governor has shitty memes, right? Enjoy roasting in the heat.
jhawk4life (@jhawk4life) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} How about allowing people to rebuild their homes, witch?
Physics Geek (@physicsgeek) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} Question: What did Californians use for light before candles?
Answer: Electricity.
Storm (@stormrobinson) ~ {Replying to @MayorOfLA and @LADWP} California is the 4th largest economy in the world, but you can’t charge your phone in the summer time or the power grid might blow up.
Well done, Democrats!
