Shortly after the wildfires that ravaged southern California more than a year ago, Adam Carolla put out a video that quickly went viral.

Carolla’s message was pretty simple. He predicted that the rebuild process after the fires would be slow and painful for everyone involved.

In case you missed it, here’s the video:

Today, the New York Post released a story about the rebuild and how awfully it’s going. Caroola retweeted the story with a funny comment.

Humiliating report reveals LA wildfire victims trapped in a rebuild ‘nightmare’

The rebuild of fire-ravaged Los Angeles was supposed to be a record-breaker, according to state and city leaders who promised one of the fastest recoveries in California history.

Instead, it’s looking more like another embarrassment for public officials according to a new damning report released Monday.

The new analysis shows just 34 homes have gone up in Pacific Palisades and Altadena in the 15 months since the devastating wildfires tore through — a shockingly sluggish pace that lags behind recoveries from other previous major California infernos.

Even more troubling: fewer than half of the nearly 10,000 destroyed properties have even applied for rebuilding permits.

Gov. Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass hyped a comeback following the fires, “faster than ever before.” Not anymore.

“There’s certainly no chance of them being this outlier of fast recovery,” disaster expert Andrew Rumbach told Politico. “It’s not physically possible at this point.”

Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass should resign.
