Furious Los Angeles residents tore into their absent Mayor Karen Bass, who was 7,400 miles away in Arica on a political trip as raging fires turned the City of Angels into an apocalyptic hellscape Tuesday.
“RESIGN! WHY ARE YOU IN GHANA?!,” one person commented on an X post by Bass’ office giving an update on the wildfires
Bass traveled with three other people to Ghana for the inaguration of President John Dramani Mahama, who was elected last year.
“Hey Karen! How’s Ghana?” another person asked. “LA you ask? Yeah it’s burning to the f–king ground but it’s better you’re not here anyways because you’re useless.”Others demanded that Bass, who took office in 2022, resign from her post.
“You’re a disgrace & embarrassment to our country,” one comment read.
“You need to resign you incompetent fool,” said another.
According to Fox LA, Bass was heading back to Los Angeles.
Former US Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell also noted Bass’ absence in a post on X, writing, “The national media hasn’t even mentioned that Karen Bass is in Africa while our city is literally burning to the ground.”

“You can’t fight a fire without water!”
The Mayor did ZERO prep despite the advanced warning of winds and fire risk.
