Hollywood stars "rebel": Demanding to "punish" officials, suspecting the government is behind it?

Outrage is spreading among Hollywood celebrities following the devastating wildfires that have swept through Southern California, with many publicly condemning the way local authorities have handled the crisis and even calling for the resignation of senior officials.

The devastating fire broke out on January 8, spreading rapidly due to strong winds, low humidity and prolonged drought. Tens of thousands of residents, including many Hollywood stars, were evacuated. Many million-dollar villas, symbols of wealth and success for artists, were burned down and reduced to ashes. The apocalyptic scene of devastation has urged celebrities to not be silent.

Leading the charge was actress Sarah Michelle Gellar, star of the series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." On her Instagram Story, she openly criticized the Los Angeles City Council and Mayor Karen Bass for their lack of preparation and slow response. Gellar expressed her frustration at encountering severe traffic congestion during the evacuation without the assistance of traffic police.

Not only Gellar, veteran actor James Woods was also one of the people affected by the fire. His mansion was completely burned down. On social network X, Woods did not hesitate to blame "liberal idiots" such as California Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Bass for the poor management of the wildfires and the depletion of water reservoirs. His post attracted more than 5 million views, showing the great public interest in this issue.

Actress Sara Foster also joined the X wave of outrage, expressing her frustration with Los Angeles residents' high taxes and the government's poor preparation for wildfires. Foster called for Bass and Newsom to resign, saying their policies have hurt the state and the Democratic Party.

Former “Dancing with the Stars” dancer Valentin Chmerkovskiy expressed similar frustration with the government’s lack of preparedness, questioning how a major economy like California could not provide water pressure for firefighters and arguing that taxpayers’ money was not commensurate with the infrastructure they received.

Actor Zachary Levi also criticized Newsom and Bass on the TV show "Jesse Watters Primetime", calling their handling of the crisis "unbelievable mismanagement" and even "criminal negligence". Levi noted that Newsom has held leadership positions for years, but the worst wildfires in California occurred during that time. He also condemned the budget cuts for firefighters, calling them "deliberately criminal".

These wildfires have caused severe damage to the Pacific Palisades area and surrounding areas, where many villas of stars such as Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal, Anthony Hopkins, Anna Faris, Miles Teller... It is estimated that thousands of structures have been destroyed, tens of thousands of people have been evacuated and at least 5 people have died.

The outrage of Hollywood artists is not limited to condemnation on social media or television. They are calling for changes in the management and response to natural disasters, demanding that the government take more specific and effective actions to protect the people.

This wave shows that the influence of celebrities is not limited to the entertainment industry but also extends to social and political issues. They are using their voices to demand justice and accountability from their leaders.

The reason behind this outrage is not only the material damage but also the deep frustration with the lack of preparation and poor response of the government, making them feel that their own safety and that of their community is being affected.
