President Trump's reversal of Biden-era climate emissions standards is criticized by Newsom using the ongoing LA fires.

Gov. Gavin Newsom accused President Donald Trump of ignoring the reality of climate change by suggesting that the Los Angeles fires were caused by it, urging skeptics to "believe their own damn eyes."

In a press release issued on Tuesday, he wrote those words alongside horrifying images of the fires raging in California, which have so far killed 27 people and destroyed tens of thousands of homes and structures.

On Monday, Trump, the newly sworn-in 47th president of the United States, signed several executive orders to undo parts of Biden's climate plan, including withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, a legally binding treaty between nearly 195 countries aimed at global cooperation on climate change.

The governor of California argued that Trump's decision to distance himself from the climate pact, which aimed to reduce emissions by 61-66% by 2035, would exacerbate environmental disasters like the West Coast fires.

Despite residents' anger at local officials after some fire hydrants failed to produce water during the fires, several other Democratic lawmakers nationwide have attempted to link the disastrous fires to climate change.

In a January social media post, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., stated that the scale of damage and loss caused by climate change is unimaginable and that it is not a hoax. He urged Donald Trump to treat this existential crisis with the seriousness it deserves.

Despite criticism from California officials for funding diversity, equity, and inclusion in the city, the fire department's budget was cut by $17.6 million this year.

Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher stated to Planet Chronicle Digital that the governor's investigation into the lack of water coming out of fire hydrants is a sideshow during a time when strong leadership is needed.

Michael Rapaport criticized Newsom for discussing "Trump-proofing" California before the inauguration rather than concentrating on "fire-proofing" the state.

Justine Bateman, a filmmaker and former "Family Ties" star, advised that if one is running a city or state, they must prioritize funding for their fire and police departments, as these are the basics.

Trump was invited by Newsom to tour the California regions affected by wildfires.

Trump announced that he will visit southern California for the first time since his inauguration this week.
