You love to see it.<\/p>\n

As previously reported<\/a>, California\u2019s Democrat lawmakers in the Assembly gaveled into a special legislative session on Thursday to help Governor Newsom fight Trump.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles is burning to the ground because of dry hydrants thanks to Governor Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass and California Democrats are attacking President Trump.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Lawmakers will allocate $25 million to California\u2019s Justice Department to fight the incoming Trump Administration.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles is engulfed in flames and more than 10,000 structures have burned to the ground yet California\u2019s Democrat lawmakers are obsessing over attacking Trump.<\/p>\n

\n

New: California lawmakers in the Assembly have gaveled into the special legislative session to help the state prepare for legal battles with the incoming Trump administration. <\/p>\n

Democrats moved forward with the bill to get $25m to CADOJ\u2014-will have budget hearing Monday.<\/p>\n

A reporter confronted California\u2019s State Assembly Speaker for holding a special legislative session to fight Trump as the most destructive fire in history ravages Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Robert Rivas refused to answer any questions. <\/p>\n

\u201cIs now the right time to have a special legislative on allocating money to fight Trump in a way that you could already do without a special legislative session?\u201d KRCA News California Capitol Correspondent Ashley Zavala asked Robert Rivas.<\/p>\n

Rivas was reduced to a stuttering mess as he tried to justify his actions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m here to address these-these-these-these wildfires \u2013 this is a historic wildfire,\u201d Rivas said.<\/p>\n

The reporter wasn\u2019t having it: \u201cBut minutes ago, your house \u2013 while the wildfires are happening and while people are trying to understand what\u2019s going on and are worried about disaster relief, worried about the ability to get homeowners insurance, your chamber gaveled into a special legislative session to prepare for Donald Trump in a way you are already able to do without a special legislative session. So again, is now the right time for that?\u201d<\/p>\n

Robert Rivas continued to stutter as he read his empty talking points about supporting recovery efforts.<\/p>\n

WATCH:<\/p>\n

\n

As wildfires rage in Los Angeles, Speaker of California’s Assembly Robert Rivas would not answer my questions, if now is the right time to have a special session to legally fight Donald Trump. <\/p>\n

In November Governor Gavin Newsom (D) convened a special legislative session to fight President Trump after he won the election in a landslide against Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n

Governor Newsom said Trump, based on his actions taken during his first term in office, is a threat to California\u2019s climate change program, illegal immigrant population, women\u2019s rights and LGBTQ+ rights.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalifornia is ready to fight,\u201d Newsom said. \u201cI just called an emergency special session to help bolster our legal resources and protect our state against any unlawful actions by the incoming Trump Administration.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhether it be our fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, or climate action \u2014 we refuse to turn back the clock and allow our values and laws to be attacked,\u201d Newsom said.<\/p>\n

Newsom was so busy obsessing over Trump that he forgot to prepare his state for fire season and portions of Los Angeles were reduced to a pile of ashes.<\/p>\n
