Former Los Angeles County Sheriff and DA Slam City’s Leadership Over Fire Response, "Woke" Ideology

“The degree of mismanagement is epic. It’s incompetence married with poisonous ideology,” said Alex Villanueva, who was Los Angeles County sheriff between 2018 and 2022.

Former high-profile Los Angeles city officials say the disorganized response to wildfires engulfing the city proves how “stupid this whole woke religion” is.

Former Los Angeles County District Attorney Steve Cooley and ex-county Sheriff Alex Villanueva told The New York Post they are dismayed by the looting that is taking place and the mismanagement of city services that allowed the fire department to be defunded, reservoirs to go unfilled and fire hydrants to run dry.

“The degree of mismanagement is epic. It’s incompetence married with poisonous ideology,” said Villanueva, who was sheriff between 2018 and 2022.

“Both the LA Sheriff’s Department and the LAPD are missing more than 3,000 cops because of what happened during what I call the ‘Summer of Love’ after George Floyd’s death,” he said.

“You wonder why there’s looting? Why wouldn’t there be? The criminals know at least up until now that probably [no penalty or jail time] was going to happen to them,” Villanueva said.

“People seem to be finally waking up and seeing how stupid this whole woke religion is and how it hurts. There is a recall movement for Gov. [Gavin] Newsom, but it’s a nonstarter. Recalling anyone in the state is near impossible,” Cooley said.
