The following report is from The New York Post:
A raging wildfire near Yosemite National Park ripped through nearly 20 square miles of land in just over a day — forcing thousands of people to flee their homes, officials said Sunday.
The fast-moving Oak Fire, just southwest of the national wilderness treasure in Midpines, had torn through 2.5 square miles of land by Friday night — and spread to 22.3 square miles by Sunday morning, according to Mariposa County fire officials.
The fire is moving quickly. This fire was throwing embers out in front of itself for up to two miles yesterday. These are exceptional fire conditions.
Sierra National Forest spokesperson Daniel Patterson said, according to SF Gate.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency for Mariposa County on Saturday due to the effects of the Oak Fire.
As of noon on Sunday, the explosive blaze was 0% contained, and was moving west towards the cities of Jerseydale, Darrah and Bootjack, SF Gate reported.
More than 400 firefighters were battling the inferno, and bulldozers, helicopters and other aircraft were being used in the efforts, Patterson said.
Stunning photos show firefighters scrambling to quell a sky-high blaze as it engulfs a tall tree near a powerline, filling the sky with plumes of smoke and an ominous orange hue.
As of Sunday, more than 6,000 people were ordered evacuated from area, 10 structures had been destroyed and five damaged, according to Cal Fire officials.
California has been hit with increasingly bigger and deadlier wildfires in recent years as climate change dries out much of the state, creating quick-moving, destructive and unpredictable blazes.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[19] Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces? [20] Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.Jeremiah 7:19-20
No, it’s not “climate change,” you goofs at the Post: the Lord is scorching California, and has increasingly done so these past years especially. More of this burning will increase for years to come, and around the country.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

California is getting exactly what she deserves. California is a hellhole like you wouldn’t believe,
it shocks me that there’s California tourism ads, who would want to vacation or bring their children to that sewer pit – talk about child abuse!
The sex perversion, the horrible things that happen to children in California, the socialism, rejecting the King James Bible, the false converts and false religions, the universities in California, and let’s not forget: Hollywood or HELLYWOOD! Where millions of children have been molested, read about what happened to Judy Garland on the set of the Wizard of Oz.
America is finished and California is even more finished!
17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
Psalm 9:17
I watched a video with Cliff High, who crossed the border from Mexico to the US on foot. Was not checked, no bags searched, did not even stamp his passport. Great security! He went to LA and San Diageo, said they both looked like (insert bad word), and smelled like urine. The real sad part was he stated he could not wait to cross back over to Tijuana, because it was at step up. How sad is that?
He also commented that most Americans looked like the walking dead, I tend to agree.
Mitch – “This was once a land where every sane person knew how to build a shelter, grow food, and entertain one another. Now we have been rendered permanent children. It’s the architects of forced schooling who are responsible for that.” John Taylor Gatto
Makes you wonder how many took the jab, & how many are on psych-meds to ‘manage’. I have Gatto in my library. A lot of truth, but carefully stopping short of America’s real problem abandoning God & his word, godly living….and exchanging biblical pilgrim Christianity for kingdom-building Augustinianism & evolutionary Manifest Destiny even when claiming to be Christian. Compromised fundamentalism swallowing up so many in corrupting unions after German critical theory had shipwrecked many others & the profit motive adding to the RSV/ASV debacle. In the end, Gatto was just another man of Craft. Of MYSTERY, the stoick, Platonic arm.

It was so frustrating back in the day with all those managed voices permitted & promoted, allowed to publish, as ‘conservatives’. ‘Conservative’ in the definition of it given in the Jesuit oath, and ‘evangelicals’, fundamental & non-, promoting them as though they had the answers.
Just as the Lord used a lying spirit to lead Ahab to judgment, and as he foretold the deceiving & being deceived: these people set up conditions for these fires by forestry mismanagement, sabotaging water supplies, selectively targeting productive & able people….some of whom are Christians, though California has been hemorrhaging their most productive citizens for decades, ramped up exponentially after 2020.
So it goes today, and the Lord’s will shall be done. Including the narrow escapes of whatever unwise Jehoshaphat’s get in the middle of it, or those righteous perishing & taken home as Isaiah 57, & so many of the martyrs dying at the hands of Rome & the self-righteous Laodicea celebrating their ‘victory’ & ‘escape’ of judgment while only heaping up their sin, bloodying their hands directly or indirectly, deceiving their own selves that this was evidence of their own righteousness through the centuries.
–
The righteous lay their hands upon their mouths, & ponder their own sin & unworthiness, the amazing undeserved mercy & salvation available to whosoever will receive it through the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ according to the scriptures. …and horrified by the folly of those refusing it. A wonderful & horrible thing is unfolding.
It’s not climate change, it’s not global warming, it’s not Mother Nature, or anything like that…it’s JESUS that’s burning California.
All of America has spit in God’s face and every state from Alabama for Wyoming is going to get God’s judgement like never before; but California’s evils and rebellion in particular, is in a league of its own.
The biggest producer of pornography.
The unbridled, wanton leftist, Christ-rejecting, and King James Bible – rejecting, heathendom.
Feminism is out of control in California and in fact, the divorce rate in California is over 75 percent! That’s a scary statistic.
Socialism, borderline communism and the ultra-unGodly school system in California, from pre-school to the university level, it’s as Godless and wicked as it can be.
Let’s not forget, the filth and mind control, social engineering and propaganda and no strings attached evil plus Illuminati controlled agendas and moral decay projected out of Hollywood.
Hollywood is also the child molesting capital of America.
The church of Satan founded by Anton LaVey in 1966 is in California – and it’s a 501(c)(3) building too.
The false Christianity – Rick Warren and John MacArthur are in California. Among many others!
The Lord has had enough!
Burn, Baby, Burn!
