Gavin Newsom Reveals Firefighters from Mexico Coming to Assist with Eaton Fire

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) revealed that firefighters from Mexico were coming to assist with the ongoing Eaton Fire.

In a post on X, Newsom expressed gratefulness for Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s “support” as California officials “work to suppress the Los Angeles wildfires.” Newsom has received criticism from California residents who have demanded to know what he is going to do in response to the wildfires.

Newsom added that the firefighters coming from Mexico would be “joining more than 10,000 personnel already on the ground.”

As Breitbart News previously reported, Newsweek found that Newsom cut $100 million from California’s fire prevention budget in 2024, prior to the Los Angeles area being affected by the wildfires.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) also cut almost $20 million “from the city’s budget for fire services for the current fiscal year.” [Breitbart]
