Rows of cars at a dealership, blasted by flames, looked like they had been bombed. A man wearing a mask walked by debris of a neighborhood destroyed. A couple, arms around each other, looked at what was left of their smoldering home. A statue of a human, without a head, lay on a street.

Actor Mel Gibson denounced California Governor Gavin Newsom over the ongoing Los Angeles area wildfires while appearing on a Thursday episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Newsom, a Democrat, has been facing heavy criticism from Republicans including President-elect Donald Trump since several major fires erupted and quickly spread out of control in Southern California earlier this week.

Trump has said he would turn on “a very large faucet” that could send millions of gallons of water from the Columbia River to Los Angeles.
