(5MinNewsBreak.com) – In the face of alarming government inaction, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is stepping up to aid Californians as devastating wildfires destroy Los Angeles.
Musk announced free Starlink internet for fire-affected areas in response to a news report crediting Starlink for maintaining communication during the fires.
“SpaceX will provide free Starlink terminals to affected areas in LA tomorrow morning,” Musk declared, demonstrating his commitment to public safety.
The tech mogul did not stop at offering help. He also pointed out the root cause of these recurring disasters.
“These fires are easily avoidable, but nonsense regulations in California prevent action being taken, so year after year homes burn down and more people die,” Musk stated.
He called out the state’s misguided environmental policies that prioritize brush over human lives.
While California burns due to incompetent leadership, Musk’s Starlink technology proves its worth.
The satellite internet service has been crucial for media coverage in areas with connectivity blackouts, ensuring Americans get the truth about the disaster’s scale.
“The only reason you’re able to see us right now is because of Starlink. There’s absolutely no cell service at all in this whole area,” said a news reporter covering the disaster.
The devastation in Los Angeles is staggering. At least five deaths have been reported, over 100,000 people forced to evacuate and up to 1,500 buildings burned.
The Palisades fire covering 17,234 acres is now the most destructive in LA’s history.
All this destruction could have been prevented if not for California’s absurd regulations preventing proper brush clearing near homes.
While California’s liberal leadership fails its citizens, Musk’s private sector initiative shines as a beacon of hope.
Starlink’s satellite system is less affected by terrestrial damage, providing a lifeline for emergency responders and residents alike.
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection stated:
“Extreme fire behavior, including short and long-range spotting, continues to challenge firefighting efforts for the Palisades Fire. Winds gusts up to 60 mph are expected to continue through Thursday, potentially aiding in further fire activity and suppression efforts.”
As the liberal elite in Hollywood watches their mansions burn, perhaps they will finally wake up to the consequences of their misguided environmental policies.
The fact that the 97th Academy Awards nominations announcement has been postponed due to the wildfires is a reminder that even the rich and famous are affected by poor governance.
