Donald Trump Blames Joe Biden and the Democratic Party for the Los Angeles Fires
The latest Los Angeles wildfires have resulted in the destruction of monumental proportions and loss of life, property damage, and degradation of the environment. Former President Donald Trump had also claimed that the fires were plotted by President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party in an attempt to defame him and requested that an investigation should be done for the same to come true. No evidence was found to support this claim. Experts linked the wildfires to natural causes, such as severe drought conditions, strong Santa Ana winds, and impacts of climate change. The Biden administration did much that focused on providing federal aid to people and combating climate change that has led to such disasters. Unsubstantiated claims strengthen political polarization, which makes it hard to have an effective disaster response. Such claims need to be proved to maintain the public’s trust in the positive political discourse.

Ram Charan’s Game Changer Struggling to Get Audiences Due to Weak Plot and Direction
Game Changer is a complete dud and deserves 3 out of 10. Shankar-directed, it lacks cohesion and originality in its predictable storyline and does not keep the viewer glued to the seat.
