Rick Caruso, billionaire developer and owner of Palisades Village Mall in Pacific Palisades, California, hired private firefighters and deployed water tankers to shield the property from wildfire damage, while other Angelenos watched their homes and livelihoods engulfed by hellish flames under the mismanagement of Mayor Karen Bass, who they chose to lead the city over Caruso in the 2022 election.
