Mayor Bass denies firing 'DEI' fire chief

Kaitlan Collins reported on X: "LA Fire Chief Crowley met with LA Mayor Bass a short time ago, but was not fired, according to Bass’s office, which is disputing an online report. Chief Crowley has bluntly said that city officials failed her department by slashing its budget by $17 million." So, at this time, the 'DEI hire' fire chief is still working.
