Khloe Kardashian is facing backlash after criticizing Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass on social media. Kardashian posted a video on Instagram from a Fox 11 LA segment featuring LAFD Fire Chief Kristin Crowley, who said the mayor's budget cuts impacted the fire fight in Southern California.
Kardashian captioned the post, 'I stand with YOU Chief Crowley!!!! You spoke the truth and you had tears in your eyes because I can tell you didn't want to say that but it was THE TRUTH!!!! Mayor Bass you are a joke!!!!' However, social media users quickly pointed out reports documenting Kardashian's sisters, Kim and Kourtney, ignoring local water-conserving mandates during a drought in the area. Some users criticized Kardashian for focusing on Bass while her sisters used excessive water, calling her out for hypocrisy. Others expressed unease with Kardashian's attacks on Bass, particularly given that she is Black. The Atlantic contributor Jemele Hill responded to the post, providing a detailed explanation of the alleged budget cuts, stating that the city of LA increased the fire department's budget by $50 million. Hill labeled Kardashian's comments as 'ill-informed.
