Several wildfires are burning in Los Angeles County, with the skies buzzing with aircraft dropping retardant and water on the flaming hills. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who was on an official trip to Ghana when the fires broke out, has come under sharp criticism for her initial absence and response to a series of raging wildfires. Bass sought to deflect criticism of her leadership on Thursday.
