Bill Maher returned to the airwaves this weekend for the first time since the fires that have been ravaging California and he is not happy.<\/p>\n

He used his monologue last night to blast Democrat leaders Karen bass and Gavin Newsom for not being prepared for the fires, pointing out that many of the fire hydrants ran out of water. He also notes that hundreds of fire hydrants in the state have been stolen in recent years and not replaced.<\/p>\n

Finally, he blasted the state\u2019s incredibly high tax rates that are supposed to ensure that things like this don\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cAxios ran a story on how getting the water out of the hydrants in Pacific Palisades was more complicated than it seems.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure it\u2019s very complicated. That\u2019s why I pay 13% of my income in the state every year to people who I assume were working on things like this.<\/p>\n

LA\u2019s mayor, Karen Bass, the Nero of American politics, was fiddling in Ghana while the city burned. and later . I\u2019ve heard people say, do you want to pay more taxes to fund this? No, I want you to use the exorbitant taxes you already collect to prioritize it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here\u2019s the clip:<\/p>\n

In another clip, his Republican guest Erin Perrine blasted Joe Biden for warning about an oligarchy in America, pointing out that Biden had no problem with big money in politics when Democrats were on the receiving end of it. Watch:<\/p>\n

NEW: Bill Maher\u2019s guest reminds him that Joe Biden had no issue with the \u201coligarchy\u201d and the ultra-wealthy until it came back to bite the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

MAHER: \u201cBezos, Musk, and Zuckerberg are all on the dais\u2026 And I don\u2019t think Joe Biden is wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maher has said that he is not going to be ruled by Trump Derangement Syndrome in Trump\u2019s second term. We\u2019ll see if he can pull it off.<\/p>\n
