Two men and a dog trapped in a home surrounded by the Palisades fire.

[Jon Michael Raasch @JMRaasch]

A friend who lives in Pacific Palisades sent me these horrific videos of the fire.

He just evacuated and said traffic was so bad people abandoned their cars.

Updated info on the wrongfully euthanized squirrel Peanut, & raccoon Fred…

Some ridiculous judge DID sign a warrant. For a squirrel? On a called -in “complaint” by this photog Monica Keasler to the DEC, for unknown reasons. The woman proceeded to brag on her now deleted FB account - she’s also ditched IG & Linked In because people found out who she is.

Reviewing facts, it’s a pathetic case of government waste, overreach, & misuse of resources.

These people rescued & raised Peanut as an orphaned kit. They had him for 7 years. The man created an animal rescue sanctuary as a result, and had allll the app. process done, & it was SIGNED. The only thing waiting on approval was an enclosure. This animal was not capable of wild survival. They tried that initially, but Peanut came back with injuries. Some rescued wildlife is not releasable - this is exactly why rehab sanctuaries will keep select animals after rehab capability is maxed.

A few potential reasons:
Missing limbs
Birds with lack of flight
Loss of vision or hearing
Predators unable to hunt sufficiently
Prey unable to evade predators
Failure to thrive due to health deficits
Captivity-raised lack of survival instincts
Conditions requiring ongoing medication

This RAID involved making the victims sit outside their home for 5 hours while these maniacs tore up everything. They were denied the right to call legal counsel. Feds went thru closets, leaving a complete mess. They broke soap bottles in the bathroom. They took apart the man’s TOILET upon escorting him before he could use it because apparently there could be some important squirrel propaganda hidden in there (I’m assuming in the tank). 😒 Please make it make sense.

They further questioned his wife’s immigration status (Germany), in spite of her having all necessary docs & ID.

Because these psychos descended unannounced & hunted down these ordinarily docile rescues in their normally peaceful home, somebody supposedly got bitten. They used that as justification for killing them to examine brain tissue for signs of rabies.

(Let’s be clear… they were observed putting on gloves. Was anyone ACTUALLY bitten?)

What’s really going on here?

We all want to know.

If you are thinking, “It’s just a squirrel “, look at your pets. Do it right now. Why do you think you are exempt from over-reach like this, & what’s different from your dog or cat?

WHAT???

I am a feline rescuer. I’ve also rescued other animals to either be rehab-released, or homed as appropriate. I have been doing this most of my life, in fact. Birds, including a baby hummingbird once. Rabbits. Lizards. Snakes. Dogs. What’s the difference, I ask you. This is NOT about permits. He had the paperwork. Signed. It was in final process.

Why do Feds have the time & resources for one MF squirrel that’s not bothering anybody? If they need something to do, I have a few suggestions. Some legit tasks first… and a couple of impolite instructions after that.

I usually try to avoid posting things that end up in the political arena, but here we are. This is as far as I’m concerned a bipartisan concern anyway, so today I am speaking up. NONE of us should be ok with this type of abusive home invasion. Do you want to be treated like a criminal, like a drug dealer, on your own property.. when you have done nothing harmful to anyone? I’m absolutely certain that I don’t.

AS a rescuer MYSELF, this hits hard. I’ve had tragic abuses committed by other organizations that I had to then correct & be the responsible party - costing me hundreds in the aftermath, plus deciding under duress of the situation to adopt as a result. Over the lifetime of a pet, that’s thousands. I continue to do this, in spite of not having a donation for it in 4 years. So to me, it’s an important issue. We talk all the time about being responsible citizens, but when it comes to actually demonstrating it, who steps up? In my neighborhood, it’s just me. Out of pocket.

So YEAH… #JusticeForPeanut

Pretty insane rate of spread - driven by spotting - on the new fire which started in past 30 minutes at or near the sawmill in Weed, California. #MillFire.

@wildland_zko @DeerCrResources Congratulations! You were made to do that job!

[Daniel Swain @Weather_West]

It is remarkable that these kind of fire conditions are being observed in early March in far Northern California (Shasta County)--typically the wettest time of year in one of the wettest parts of the state. #CAwx #CAfire

[Cascadia Fire Has No Season @barkflight]

Shasta sheriff is issuing a new EVAC warning for all roads east of Interstate 5 that are south of the Pit River Bridge to Admiral and east to the end of Radcliff.
