#2 California Democrats funneled it to nonprofits instead.

And from there it went where? 'Starters' at the French Laundry? Please, someone have a look.

#10 $210 million or more was collected for the Maui fire victims in 2023. I wonder how much of that money actally got to fire victims? There were reports that developers swooped in for the pennies-on-a-dollar "fire sale."

#11 Sounds like Bass cut off police patrols in the area. Squatters have moved in and the police refuse to remove them. I would have thought that rich Hollywood types would be protected from the consequences of their Marxism.
