As the California wildfires continue to rage, there is a lot of finger-pointing going on.

Republicans have blamed decades of disastrous Democrat rule, which includes poor, misguided, and ideologically motivated planning driven in part by an obsession with DEI and climate alarmism. 

Democrats, on the other hand, have blamed Republicans for among other things allegedly not taking the threat of so-called climate change more seriously.

But though one would expect these types of debates to be happening amid the devastation, one would think that victim blaming would be out of bounds.

That was not the case, however, for compassionate, loving, and inclusive Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), who took to the Twitter/X machine Thursday afternoon to deliver a cheap shot to one of the victims of the wildfires:

When I saw that my first thought was that it was one of the most classless things I'd ever seen a member of Congress do, and I wasn't the only one:

Blaming McDonalds for Los Angeles burning down is absolutely psychotic

And it’s even more psychotic to celebrate the destruction https://t.co/sneeCElKTT

Yes, because corporations provided all those homeowners with jobs. And some of those houses were built by corporations and corporations furnished lots of the building materials. What an idiotic post. https://t.co/Il7EcWDiug

She's right. McDonald's should shutter every restaurant and move every job out of California. https://t.co/ncw22m7rUn

No, you and all of the Democrat run state officials who refuse to clear forests, capture mountain runoff, and imprison homeless arsonists got us into this mess. Distraction and redirection of culpability won’t work this time, cuz this time you burned down the homes of your…

Not to mention the fact that she knows nothing about that particular McDonald's and the specifics of their situation:

I'm sure the employees of this particular McDonald's (who have probably lost everything too) appreciate this tweet from a member of Congress. https://t.co/ciGXNiWOva

Relatedly, I'm pretty sure individual McDonald's locations and the corporation itself do not have the power Jayapal thinks they have:

I was unaware McDonalds failed to fill the reservoirs
And cut the LAFD budget by $17M
How dare they https://t.co/BSB0cinIJB

To that point, the woke LAFD, Mayor Karen Bass, and Gov. Gavin Newsom don't run McDonald's, either, last I checked.

Some final thoughts:

Your party destroyed our ability to manage forest and water resources. You drained water reserves "for the environment". You let forests accumulate deadfall "for the environment". Maybe start prioritizing citizens for once, instead of your delusionshttps://t.co/jCkqGo2vWe
