Far-left activists from Code Pink are being accused of exploiting tragedy after linking California’s devastating wildfires to the conflict in Gaza, claiming both are fueled by policies targeting indigenous lands and broader environmental neglect.

Code Pink organizer Olivia DiNucci led a protest outside Sen. Alex Padilla’s California office on Wednesday, using the state’s raging wildfires as a platform to promote the group’s radical agenda. 

Slamming Congress’s support for Israel “to continue to bomb and obliterate people in Gaza,” DiNucci alleged that California’s fire crisis is part of a global pattern of destruction, tying the environmental devastation to the conflict in Gaza, where Hamas rules.
