Fox's Maria Bartiromo Asks If Migrants Can Be Blamed For LA Wildfires
BARTIROMO: Have we ruled out all outside agitators?
TEPPER: No. In fact, I think there were videos of some arsonists creating new fires. So no, I don’t think that’s been ruled out at all and given the terror attacks that we saw on January 1, I mean, it’s certainly not outside the realm of possibility that that’s happening. But you know, what’s happening right now — at least for me — a lack of mitigation standpoint prior to this has to do with the fact that California is effectively a one-party system. And when you’re operating under a one-party system, there’s no accountability from the other party to help you make sure that you’re doing what you should be doing.
BARTIROMO: That’s a great point.
TEPPER: Gross incompetence. Having priorities backwards. All that stuff contributed to what’s happening, not saying it caused it, but it certainly contributed.
BARTIROMO: But I’d like to know what kind of investigation is underway in terms of outside agitators. I mean, all of these people who have come into America and wanting to disrupt our lives. I would like to see an investigation to ensure that we know that there were no outside agitators starting these fires.
