Biden taking break from Lake Tahoe vacation at billionaire’s mansion to tour Maui wildfire damage

President Biden took time out Monday from his weeklong vacation at a Democratic billionaire’s Lake Tahoe mansion for a day trip to Hawaii to examine damage from the deadliest US wildfires in more than a century.

Biden boarded Air Force One in Reno, Nev., without addressing reporters — and after taking heat for repeatedly declining to comment on the blazes that have killed at least 114 people in Maui.

The president arrived in Maui shortly before noon local time alongside FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell, after taking a 20-minute aerial tour of the disaster area ahead of meetings with emergency personnel and survivors.
