Newsom Administration on Track to Secure Seven C-130s to Fight Wildfires
Sacramento, CA...An effort led by the Newsom Administration and congressional leaders resulted in Congress authorizing and accelerating the transfer of seven C-130 aircraft from the United States Coast Guard to CAL FIRE, expanding California’s world-leading firefighting fleet to protect Californians. Governor Gavin Newsom – in partnership with U.S. Senator Alex Padilla and the late U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein – spearheaded this initiative for California take on sole ownership of these aircraft, speed up the time to have them flying firefighting operations in California, and expand CAL FIRE’s firefighting capabilities.
Even before this, California had built up the largest firefighting fleet in the world. These new C-130s will be strategically located throughout the state at CAL FIRE bases to mobilize when needed, adding to the helicopters, other aircraft, and firefighters ready to protect Californians. This follows California’s leadership in utilizing innovation and technology to fight fires smarter, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), satellites, and more.
“These are aircraft that can mobilize quickly and attack wildfires to better protect our communities. This was a collaborative effort with our partners Sen. Padilla, the late Sen. Feinstein, and others to deliver for Californians.” Governor Gavin Newsom
When President Biden signs the bill into law, these planes will be transferred to the state. The first of the seven planes will likely be ready in time for height of the 2024 fire year, adding immediate value to California’s firefighting capabilities.

This is fabulous news! Cal Fire has been waiting so many years to get these beautiful retrofitted planes. Such a great addition to Cal Fire's excellent fleet of fire fighting planes and helos.

Battery can’t operate that? Hypothetically a democratic run of hypocrisy. I’d bet Ole Joey was a captain of one. Hell him and Corn Pop designed it on a napkin…off his ice cream cone…with a canyon. Yet a democrat would believe him. Absolutely embarrassing donkey party.

Amplifying the stupidity of the MAGA movement. In the meantime Donald J Trump is responsible for stealing highly classified Russian intelligence documents. And the MAGA idiot are talking about January sixth ghost busses.

The real problem with today’s Republican Party. For the most part. Completely unqualified to be lawmakers. Credibility that basically disappeared under the Trump presidency. Not serious about the rule of law. Only trying to promote themselves.

I could read a teleprompter better than Donald trump. He mumbles, stumbles. Basically talking like a complete idiot. Nothing based in reality whatsoever. He couldn’t make a presidential decision if his life depended on it…

Your boy said he got indicted for you…. Wait a minute, he got indicted because he committed ninety one felonies. Because he believes he can pardon himself. Even he were able to accomplish this. In the state of Georgia. The minimum is five years in prison. A presidential pardon does not work in this state. Sorry Donald. But he knows this already…

Committed or accused? You lame brain liberals do know the difference don't you? There hasn't been a day gone by where President Trump wasn't accused of breaking some law. Are you so stupid as to bring up Russia again?
