Trump Vows to Withhold Federal Aid For California Wildfires Until Gov. Newsom Gets His Act Together

President Donald Trump on Sunday tweeted that the federal government would no longer provide federal money to help with wildfires in California. According to the president, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) has "done a terrible job of forest management" because of environmentalists.

Trump also slammed Newsom for the state's decision to divert water from the San Joaquin River to the Pacific Ocean as a means of protecting the Delta Smelt, an endangered species of fish.

Newsom clapped back at the president, clearly blaming climate change on the state's massive wildfires.
