In the midst of the raging Palisades Fire, Hollywood celebrities have taken to social media to express their frustration with Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’s handling of the emergency. The fire, fueled by relentless Santa Ana winds, erupted in the Santa Monica Mountains and rapidly spread, consuming nearly 3,000 acres by nightfall.
Sarah Michelle Gellar was among the first to voice her discontent, highlighting the irony of evacuation orders amidst gridlocked traffic without any traffic control. “City of LA you want everyone to evacuate yet you have complete gridlock and not one traffic cop on the roads helping,” Gellar posted on her Instagram story, directly tagging the city’s and mayor’s official accounts.
This sentiment was echoed by other celebrities like Jillian Michaels and former “Dancing with the Stars” dancer Valentin Chmerkovskiy, who criticized the city’s preparedness and response. Chmerkovskiy pointed out the dire situation, stating, “5th largest economy on the planet. Firefighters didn’t have enough water pressure to do their jobs?!”
The fire’s impact was severe, with mandatory evacuations leading to scenes of abandoned cars on roads, further complicating the escape for residents. Actor Steve Guttenberg took matters into his own hands, helping move stranded vehicles to clear paths for emergency services, describing the scene as “a ghost town.”
James Woods, who lost his home in the fire, went beyond criticism to blame the disaster on what he described as political mismanagement by state and local leaders. He posted on X, “This isn’t climate change, this is due to liberal idiots like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. One doesn’t understand the first thing about fire management and the other can’t fill the water reservoirs.”
The community’s response has been one of shock and frustration, with celebrities like Chris Pratt calling for prayers for the firefighters and those unable to evacuate. The situation has spotlighted not only the immediate crisis but also broader issues about emergency preparedness and leadership in one of America’s largest cities.
The Palisades Fire underscores a critical moment for Los Angeles, where public and celebrity voices alike are demanding better from their elected officials in times of crisis.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
