Two and a half weeks ago, over 100 mile an hour winds transformed the Palisades Fire and other areas into absolute infernos of death and destruction. First Lady and I are in California to express a great love for the people of California. The people are so amazing and your fire department was so beautiful. I just want to thank you for your focus on bringing sanity to California, water and fire policy, there's no place that needs a revolution in common sense quite like California. I'm signing an executive order to open up the pumps and valves in the north. We want to get that water pouring down here as quickly as possible, let hundreds of millions of gallons of water flow down into Southern California. We should not have to rely on buckets to put out a fire. You were talking about the need to better manage our forests and our wild lands to prevent this from happening again and you were so right about that. I wanted to thank you for your loyal support to our military, our police officers and especially our firefighters. Mr. President, I just wanted to say Paradise is coming back because of the help that you gave us and we really want to thank you for that. I'm going to give you everything you want, I'm going to give you more than any president would have ever given you. Most presidents wouldn't be here number one, they certainly wouldn't be here after three days. You can come back and come back as much as you need, I'm going to be the president that's going to help you fix it.
