LA mayor Bass criticized for Africa trip during wildfires

Mayor Karen Bass faced criticism for her trip to Ghana during the wildfires in Los Angeles, which have caused at least five deaths and destroyed nearly 2,000 structures.
The Palisades fire began on January 7, while Bass was attending the inauguration of President John Dramani Mahama, and firefighters struggled to contain multiple wildfires.
Bass stated that budget cuts to the Los Angeles Fire Department would not impact the city's ability to address the fires, despite concerns from local officials.
Upon her return, Bass emphasized her focus on coordinating the fire response and rebuilding efforts, stating that 20% of hydrants went dry during the crisis.
