On Tuesday, in a video, actor Michael Rapaport confronted California Gov. Gavin Newsom, saying, "You've made enough mistakes, your time is up!"

The actor from "Only Murders in the Building" stated that "Gavin with the good hair Newsom" should have been concentrating on "fire-proofing" California instead of "Trump-proofing" it.

The 54-year-old said in a video he posted to Instagram, "You’re talking about Trump this, Trump that. He’s not even president," as the Southern California fires, which have burned thousands of homes, entered their second week.

Rapaport has previously criticized Trump, but stated that Vice President Harris lost his vote in the 2024 election due to Israel.

He mocked Newsom's statement, saying, 'We’ll do better next time. We need to learn from our mistakes,' and added, 'Get the f--- out of here!'

"You're not running for sixth grade class president, he joked, referring to Nancy Pelosi's nephew, saying 'Them days are over.'"

"You turned out to be quite the talented artist, despite your rough exterior," he remarked.

Newsom has been criticized by celebrities, including Rapaport, amid the devastating fires in Los Angeles.

Last week, Rhea Durham criticized Mark Wahlberg's relaxed attitude.

On Friday, the model posted a photo of Newsom on Instagram, but later deleted it. The photo showed Newsom standing with his hands in his pockets and laughing with a group of people at the Palisades Fire base camp in Malibu.

What is the reason behind the Governor of C.A's behavior while standing around and laughing as if it's a tailgate party?

Izzy Gardon, the director of communications for Newsom, stated to Planet Chronicle Digital that anyone who has experienced a tragedy knows that there are both lighthearted and sorrowful moments. Gardon observed this firsthand during the governor's visit to Los Angeles over the past three days, where he met with firefighters, first responders, and victims of the tragedy.

The backlash from celebrities over the lack of preparation and response to the crisis faced by Newsom and Los Angeles officials since the fires broke out last Tuesday has been intense.
