Michael Monks kicks off the hour by discussing new LA Times/UC Berkeley polls on Mayor Bass’s performance and what they reveal about her handling of the fires. He then delves into Ezra Klein’s analysis of how Democrats have sustained a dysfunctional government in California, highlights a poll showing that 10% of LA County residents are planning to leave in the wake of the fires, and wraps up with his take on the potential designation of the dingy Hollywood Premiere Motel as a historic landmark—and what it means for preserving LA's heritage.
