  1. When the global warming/climate change proponents get serious about reducing car driving, I'll take them seriously. Not until. This smacks of a reason to impose a carbon tax. And I'd like to know all about geo-engineering and weaponizing the weather. Like the offficial 911 story, it does seem strange.

  2. From November 9: "PARADISE — Downed PG&E power lines, amid high winds, may have sparked the deadly Camp Fire that has destroyed the town of Paradise… according to firefighter radio transmissions reviewed by Bay Area News Group.

    At about 6:33 a.m. Thursday, firefighters were dispatched to a vegetation fire “under the high tension power lines” across the Feather River from Poe Dam, where Cal Fire officials have pinpointed the fire’s origin on the agency’s incident page, according to hours of radio transmissions reviewed by this news organization. The first fighters arrived there at 6:43 a.m and noted the fire was being buttressed by 35 mph winds.

    “We’ve got eyes on the vegetation fire. It’s going to be very difficult to access, Camp Creek Road is nearly inaccessible,” one firefighter told dispatch. “It is on the west side of the river underneath the transmission lines.”

    The utility, which has already been criticized and sued in a number of other large and deadly fires across California, had announced beginning Tuesday that it might shut down power to the impacted parts of Butte County amid forecasts of high wind and low humidity. But it never did." NO AUTHORITIES PROVIDED WARNINGS BY CELL PHONE AS THEY ARE ABLE TO DO. EVACUATIONS BEGAN WHEN FRIENDS AND RELATIVES NOTIFIED RESIDENTS THEY NEEDED TO FLEE.

  3. "Investigations point to energy corporation’s negligence in California wildfire…An investigation is now underway that will assess the culpability of Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) in starting the Camp Fire, now the deadliest wildfire in the history of California.
    The company acknowledged Tuesday that it had submitted an “electric incident report” to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on November 8, moments before the wildfire broke out. The report detailed a power failure on a transmission line in Butte County at 6:15 a.m., 15 minutes before the fire was reported as starting in the same area.
    More than 100 people are still listed as missing by the Butte County Sheriff’s Office after the fire destroyed the town of Paradise, California Thursday morning. The official death toll stands at 56, while Butte County officials have said they expect more bodies will be found. One quarter of the population of Paradise, a town of 27,000, are senior citizens, and 73 of the missing persons are 65 years or older.
    In a document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, PG&E stated that if its equipment was found responsible for starting the fire, the cost of the damage would exceed its insurance coverage and hurt its financial standing. The company’s shares fell 21 percent on the following day. Its stock has fallen by 53 percent in total since the fire broke out.
    Affected residents have filed a lawsuit against PG&E at the San Francisco Superior Court, accusing the company of negligence. “Rather than spend the money it obtains from customers for infrastructure maintenance and safety,” states the official complaint, “PG&E funnels this funding to boost its own corporate profits and compensation.”
    Oakland attorney Michael Danko, representing the plaintiffs, claims to have “overwhelming” evidence that PG&E is to blame. In addition to the incident report the company filed to the CPUC, Danko cites “witnesses who saw the fire start on a transmission line” as well as a resident who received an email from the utility a day before the fire broke out notifying her of sparking lines.
    The total number of those killed in the Camp Fire may never be known. There are currently over 100 missing person reports from the fire, but those without close friends or family may never be reported. The destruction is so extensive that emergency responders will have a hard time finding all the victims. The Butte County Sheriff told reporters that in some cases “the fire burned so intensely” that the temperatures would “be high enough to completely consume the body.”
    No wireless emergency alert was issued, and thousands of panicked residents clogged the roads trying to escape. The fire has burned a total of 138,000 acres. Officials say they expect that it will not be contained until the end of the month."

  4. The fire that consumed Paradise, CA, and nearby communities should be called the PG&E Fire rather than the Camp Fire as it's been named. Calling it Camp Fire suggests an effort at misdirection, suggesting that careless campers didn't bother to douse embers that started the flames, when in fact, PG&E reported an electric outage 15 minutes before the flames were reported. PG&E didn't invest in putting electric power lines underground, so high winds can down the line and spark fires. It isn't the first time.

  5. What a load of propaganda. Geoengeering has sprayed tons of aluminium in the stratosphere which is the way they control the weather. Then look at how the fires are started. DEW are used by military planes to start the fires.

  6. Hear the trumpets hear the Piper's…there burning the state on purpose to take the land they destroyed and to kill people slowly through smoke. All planned all scheduled all for reason. Climate change is fake our Lord Jesus Christ is coming prepare your households bless up stay positive get ready for what's coming it's about to get WAY worse…

  7. This is premeditated murder and destruction of property hiding behind the guise of "Climate Change". "Wildfires" consume the "wild" as in trees and bushes. Homes are being consumed to the foundation and nearby trees and bushes are standing. The media are using phrases like "leap-frogging" to explain how one home can be incinerated while the house next door and the surrounding foliage remain untouched. Cars surrounded by cement and asphalt are being burned from the inside out, again, right near trees and bushes that remain untouched. "Climate change" and polution are being exacerbated by the geo-engineerings chemical manipulation of the air, sea and earth. The Real News is being used to push the "people" part of climate change and not the military's weather warfare testing and the holes they blow in the protective layer above of the earth. Easier to blame it on us so "we the people" can pay the cost of. Easier to shame people who "deny" "climate science" as ignorant. The science does not include the impact of geo-engineering, weather warefare experiments, and military testing. Add that to the equation and see who is really responsible for runaway weather catastrophes.

  8. If y'all are claiming to be "real news", try doing your research. Y'all are doing nothing but pushing the bullshit MSM narrative. Try looking into agenda 21 & 2030, then directed energy weapons & Geo engineering. Y'all are a disgrace to Independent media & the truth community!!!

  9. Don’t like his tone. Abolish all government. If people were allowed to manage their own resources and environment this would not happen.

  10. I would like an opinion from the real news about if it makes sense that there were 16 NorCal fires last yeah and now a massive one this year and it all caused by power lines. That was the verdict in 2017. We’ve had power lines for hundreds of years and they aren’t sparking up fires every year. There is also no way the winds have changed that much. Tell me any of this makes sense. Climate Change did not cause these fires, that needs to stop as being thrown out as a reason for the fires. It may be why they spread but it is not why they start

  11. It's not climate change. It's global Geoengeneering that is causing the droughts, floods, etc. The real criminals hide behind their brainwashing title "climate change". I do not consent! Stop Geoengeneering!
