Not if this is shared on every billboard and social media across America— reserves and letting Los Angeles burn, Newsom stands at the front of the complaint line about Trump’s ballroom — which cost taxpayers nothing — while spending $1.5 billion of California taxpayers’ money to remodel his own state capitol building. He’s also slowing home rebuilding efforts, allowing the state to seize property for government housing — housing that ends up funded by Americans to shelter non-citizens. That’s what Los Angeles has largely become today. Due to redistricting practices, many California voters — roughly 45% — feel they are not fairly represented, as most political power remains concentrated with Democratic districts. Some residents believe that increased migration and shifting populations have altered voting balances in key cities, leaving long-time citizens feeling their voices carry less weight in local and state decisions.

Corporation (LAEDC) puts property damage from the fires at ~US $28.0 billion to US $53.8 billion.  •A study from UCLA Anderson Forecast estimates total property capital losses could range between ~US $95 billion to US $164 billion.  •Some media / marketplace sources (e.g., AccuWeather) project damage economic loss up to US $250 billion-US $275 billion.  •Other refined figures: One article citing ~11,000 homes destroyed valued at ~US $30 billion just for residential losses.  •As for insured losses, one modelling firm estimates ~US $28 billion of insured losses so far.  ⸻ 🔍 My Summary & Interpretation •The most conservative estimate (LAEDC) for property damage alone is ~$28B-$54B. •When including broader capital losses (infrastructure, rebuilding, business disruption) the range climbs to ~$95B-$164B (UCLA). •The largest estimates (~$250B-$275B) factor in indirect and long-term economic costs (lost productivity, business interruption, evacuee displacement, inflation in reconstruction). •Therefore: the full cost of the 2025 L.A. wildfires could well exceed US $100 billion, possibly even US $250 billion , depending on how inclusively you define “cost”. ⸻ Important Caveats •Many of these numbers are preliminary and subject to revision as claims, rebuilds, and long-term effects become clearer. •There is variation in what “cost” covers: some only count destroyed structures; others include business losses, lost wages, property value declines, uninsured losses, cleanup, etc. •Insured vs uninsured losses differ (insured losses are typically lower than total economic losses). •Geographic scope and time horizon vary across studies (some focus just on the fires’ immediate area, some include downstream effects over years). •Given the massive values (hundreds of billions), small changes in assumptions can swing the estimate significantly.

After failing to manage California’s water reserves and letting Los Angeles burn, Newsom stands at the front of the complaint line about Trump’s ballroom — which cost taxpayers nothing — while spending $1.5 billion of California taxpayers’ money to remodel his own state capitol building. He’s also slowing home rebuilding efforts, allowing the state to seize property for government housing — housing that ends up funded by Americans to shelter non-citizens. That’s what Los Angeles has largely become today. Due to redistricting practices, many California voters — roughly 45% — feel they are not fairly represented, as most political power remains concentrated with Democratic districts. Some residents believe that increased migration and shifting populations have altered voting balances in key cities, leaving long-time citizens feeling their voices carry less weight in local and state decisions.

Corporation (LAEDC) puts property damage from the fires at ~US $28.0 billion to US $53.8 billion.  •A study from UCLA Anderson Forecast estimates total property capital losses could range between ~US $95 billion to US $164 billion.  •Some media / marketplace sources (e.g., AccuWeather) project damage economic loss up to US $250 billion-US $275 billion.  •Other refined figures: One article citing ~11,000 homes destroyed valued at ~US $30 billion just for residential losses.  •As for insured losses, one modelling firm estimates ~US $28 billion of insured losses so far.  ⸻ 🔍 My Summary & Interpretation •The most conservative estimate (LAEDC) for property damage alone is ~$28B-$54B. •When including broader capital losses (infrastructure, rebuilding, business disruption) the range climbs to ~$95B-$164B (UCLA). •The largest estimates (~$250B-$275B) factor in indirect and long-term economic costs (lost productivity, business interruption, evacuee displacement, inflation in reconstruction). •Therefore: the full cost of the 2025 L.A. wildfires could well exceed US $100 billion, possibly even US $250 billion , depending on how inclusively you define “cost”. ⸻ Important Caveats •Many of these numbers are preliminary and subject to revision as claims, rebuilds, and long-term effects become clearer. •There is variation in what “cost” covers: some only count destroyed structures; others include business losses, lost wages, property value declines, uninsured losses, cleanup, etc. •Insured vs uninsured losses differ (insured losses are typically lower than total

Corporation (LAEDC) puts property damage from the fires at ~US $28.0 billion to US $53.8 billion.  •A study from UCLA Anderson Forecast estimates total property capital losses could range between ~US $95 billion to US $164 billion.  •Some media / marketplace sources (e.g., AccuWeather) project damage economic loss up to US $250 billion-US $275 billion.  •Other refined figures: One article citing ~11,000 homes destroyed valued at ~US $30 billion just for residential losses.  •As for insured losses, one modelling firm estimates ~US $28 billion of insured losses so far.  ⸻ 🔍 My Summary & Interpretation •The most conservative estimate (LAEDC) for property damage alone is ~$28B-$54B. •When including broader capital losses (infrastructure, rebuilding, business disruption) the range climbs to ~$95B-$164B (UCLA). •The largest estimates (~$250B-$275B) factor in indirect and long-term economic costs (lost productivity, business interruption, evacuee displacement, inflation in reconstruction). •Therefore: the full cost of the 2025 L.A. wildfires could well exceed US $100 billion, possibly even US $250 billion , depending on how inclusively you define “cost”. ⸻ Important Caveats •Many of these numbers are preliminary and subject to revision as claims, rebuilds, and long-term effects become clearer. •There is variation in what “cost” covers: some only count destroyed structures; others include business losses, lost wages, property value declines, uninsured losses, cleanup, etc. •Insured vs uninsured losses differ (insured losses are typically lower than total economic losses). •Geographic scope and time horizon vary across studies (some focus just on the fires’ immediate area, some include downstream effects over years). •Given the massive values (hundreds of billions), small changes in assumptions can swing the estimate significantly.

After failing to manage California’s water reserves and letting Los Angeles burn, Newsom stands at the front of the complaint line about Trump’s ballroom — which cost taxpayers nothing — while spending $1.5 billion of California taxpayers’ money to remodel his own state capitol building. He’s also slowing home rebuilding efforts, allowing the state to seize property for government housing — housing that ends up funded by Americans to shelter non-citizens. That’s what Los Angeles has largely become today. Due to redistricting practices, many California voters — roughly 45% — feel they are not fairly represented, as most political power remains concentrated with Democratic districts. Some residents believe that increased migration and shifting populations have altered voting balances in key cities, leaving long-time citizens feeling their voices carry less weight in local and state decisions.

Take note — many among the homeless population include individuals who entered the country illegally.
