Nicole Shanahan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s former running mate, has jumped into the debate after a number of liberals have been claiming that the deadly wildfires in the Los Angeles area are all because of “climate change.”
Shanahan, 39, is an attorney working in Silicon Valley. A former Democrat, she switched to Independent this year and filled out her ballot to vote for President-elect Donald Trump while on stage at a Trump rally in Arizona in October.
After a large number of liberals have blamed the fires on everything from climate change to corporations to Republicans and even tried to blame President-elect Donald Trump, Shanahan has had enough.
On Saturday, she blasted out the following statement on social media:
“For all you climate change doomsayers: California has been OUT of a drought since 2022. We’ve seen record rainfall, yet the CA Dept of Water Resources, big city mayors, and the governor have failed to use that water to increase ground hydration and strengthen emergency fire services.
“They looked the other way despite warnings from universities, fire departments, farmers, and consultants offering actionable plans. It’s mind-boggling negligence.
“The government in California has been taking orders from the wrong people for too long. It’s time they wake up, grow a pair, and get to work for the people.”

Kaizen D. Asiedu, a life coach and inspirational speaker, responded, “And even if climate change caused this, the preparation and response were inept. Climate change is the political equivalent of “my dog ate my homework”.”
Shanahan replied, “🎯 climate is heavily impacted by ground moisture. The current CA water management polices masked as “climate change” polices are ludicrous. They are making the land dry, dead and unable to sequester carbon. Starving people and the economy.”
