More than a dozen people are believed to be dead and many more injured as several fires broke out across Southern California amid historically dry and windy conditions.

The dangerous California wildfires are still burning and threatening the very center of Los Angeles. Firefighters are racing to contain the blazes as strong, gusty Santa Ana winds return to the forecast and continue to fuel the fires.

President-elect Donald Trump launched a new round of criticism Sunday targeting Democrats over their efforts to tame the Southern California wildfires, ripping rival liberal leaders as “incompetent” witnesses to “one of the worst catastrophes in the history of our Country.”

President-elect Donald Trump has accused California Gov. Gavin Newsom of prioritizing environmental policies over public safety, and claimed that FEMA lacked the funds to respond to the crisis.

Many are wondering what went wrong that the wildfires in Los Angeles, California, can't be stopped and continue to consume everything in their path.
