Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass drew the ire of California wildfires victims Friday after suggesting during a meeting with President Trump that residents will be allowed to start rebuilding “right away” – when they haven’t even been allowed to see the devastation up close yet.
“No, that will not be the case,” Bass responded, when told by the president that he’s heard it will be 18 months before Pacific Palisades residents that lost their homes can start rebuilding.
