When wildfires, homelessness, and immigration collide, Los Angeles becomes a focal point for America’s biggest debates. In this candid, hourlong sitdown, Shane Smith presses L.A. Mayor  Karen  Bass on everything from her controversial trip to Ghana during the Palisades inferno to the missing billions earmarked for homelessness relief. Bass pulls back the curtain on firedepartment missteps, why she fired the city’s fire chief, and how a thousand unused veteran housing vouchers were finally unlocked. Along the way, volunteer firefighter and Community  Brigade cofounder Keegan Gibbs joins Shane to recount the night Malibu burned and explains why even the bestequipped departments can be powerless against hurricaneforce winds. Bass lays out her plan to rebuild faster—thanks in part to an unexpected assist from the Trump administration’s Army  Corps of  Engineers—and reveals a new public/private partnership with developer Rick  Caruso and NBA vet JJ Redick to restore a devastated rec center. #vicenews #news #shanesmithhasquestions #shanesmith #sshq #lafires Don't miss a video!
