a los angeles business owner who was honorary laf the fire chief in 2022.nderstand you have some thoughts on los angeles fire department chief christine crowley and implementation of racial equity plan. what should we know about that? >> good morning, carley. first of all, allele made it out from the 50,000-foot view and perspective and i could feel his anger. so thank you for that, leo. but i am going to zoom in a little bit more just about to street level and let you know what happened because of the mismanagement of this fire chief, christine crowley. number one, she lied, gavin newsom lied and the supervisor lindsay lied when said predeployment for the fire. i talked to the firefighters they are till there was no predeployment so they lied flat out. there was not enough staffing because we don't have enough staffing at the los angeles fire department. and there was not enough water because of problems at the dwp, which relate to the same problems at the fire department which is this whole dei initiative and how they treat the older class of employees, w

larry, if the laf d was able to operate last night, would it have been this bad? >> it is very tough to say. the wind was so bad last night that even if the helicopters would have been in the air, it is extremely tough to get the water to the ground. once it leaves the helicopter, when the wind is blowing that bad, it is just tough because it evaporates, it gets blown away and sometimes it just doesn't hit the ground. so, very tough to say. again, we have never seen anything like this to this scale. you have the fire burning in pasadena and altadena and points north. then you have the terrible fire in the pacific palisades you have been talking about and that is continuing to blow up. you can't see it out the window but from where i am sitting in my office, i can see the plumes of all of these fires at the same time. >> you are many miles away from the palisades. >> i hate to say it but there is a new fire that is just starting up up in the ventura county area. you've got, in addition to the terrible weather, it is still windy out here. it is better than it was la

the honor of hosting laf was an issue so serious that it was taken up to the city council where the lawsons was selected due to its size and grandeur, and to give lafayette and his traveling party privacy, mrs. lawson moved out for nearly the entire month of october. lafayette was here for one night just in case he wanted to come back. she moved out and stayed with family nearby for her hospitality and service. the city awarded her a silver cup and now being a city so close to lafayette's heart, we are very fortunate to have some surviving mementos of him here. one of them is fayettet mesakes.e lafayette's tour,the f the streets and towns and schools named after him. but we were one of the first e stet was actually h previous visit. so we got ahead of the curve and the plaque on the side lawson house, which is now known as the lafayette house gadsby's tavern, was also saved by the american legion post 24 due to its connection to lafayette as well. although not inherently political, lafayette's visit had massive political implications. the election of 1824 between john quincy adams and andre

so we got ahead of the cu the plaque on the side of the lawson houh now knownashe laf's tavern, was also saved by the american legion post 24 due to its connection to lafayette as well. although not inherently political, lafayette's visit had massive political implications. the election of 1824 between john quincy adams and andrew jackson was one of the most tumultuous in american history. and while politics were divisive across the nation, tensions in washington were especially at an all time high. the election was the first where neither of the candidates had served in the revolution or had a hand in the country's founding documents. so without the rose colored memories of the founders to guide voters the nation was at a crossroads. what was the path for the future of the presidency? was reserved only for those with connected family names. with the revolution would america become a country where common man could be elected similarly to the equally bitter election of 1800, the outcome of the election of 1824 was handed over to the house of representatives and lafayette was present on th
