Khloe Kardashian Calls L.A. Mayor a “Joke,” Internet Responds With “Pot, Meet Kettle”

Buy Me A Coffee

Oh, Khloe Kardashian. When it comes to the art of foot-in-mouth, she might as well have a PhD. This time, our dear Khloe decided to sprinkle some drama seasoning on the Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, calling her a โ€œjokeโ€ over how sheโ€™s handling the cityโ€™s fire crisis. But waitโ€”did the internet let her have her moment of righteous indignation? Absolutely not.

Chief Crowley Brings the Receipts, Khloe Brings the Commentary
Hereโ€™s the tea: over the weekend, Khloe shared an Instagram story supporting Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin Crowley, who emotionally confessed to Fox 11 that budget cuts were putting the fire department in a precarious position.

Khloe, ever the keyboard warrior, took to her Instagram Stories like it was her personal soapbox. โ€œI stand by YOU Chief Crowley!!!! You spoke the truth and you had tears in your eyes because I can tell you didnโ€™t even want to say that but it was THE TRUTH. Thank you for being honest. Mayor Bass, you are a joke!!!!โ€

Thatโ€™s right. Khloe went full caps lock. You know itโ€™s serious when the caps lock comes out.

Internet Detectives Assemble
Now, if thereโ€™s one thing the internet does better than baking sourdough bread, itโ€™s unearthing receipts. And oh, did they unearth them. Within minutes, Twitter (and probably Reddit) lit up like, well, Los Angeles in fire season. The reason? Khloeโ€™s past sins of water gluttony during the city’s ongoing drought.

A Thirsty Throwback
Flashback to 2022: Los Angeles was as parched as a college student during finals week. The city begged residents to conserve water, restricting garden watering to twice a week for eight minutes. Enter Khloe Kardashian, who reportedly used 101,000 gallons over her limit in a single month.

For perspective, thatโ€™s enough water to drown a small villageโ€”or at least fill a Kardashian-sized infinity pool. Not to be outdone, big sister Kim went for the gold with a whopping 232,000 gallons over the limit. Combined, the Kardashian sisters used enough water to fill half an Olympic-sized swimming pool. (Because who needs Olympic athletes when youโ€™ve got thirsty shrubbery?)

The Hypocrisy Olympics
Naturally, this didnโ€™t sit well with those who still remember how they showered using a trickle so light it barely qualified as mist. Actress Yvette Nicole Brown chimed in with her own mic drop moment:
โ€œThis is from 2022 when Los Angeles was in the midst of a drought. Every citizen was asked to conserve for the good of everyone else. Yโ€™know because of fires? This is how some citizens responded to the ask. Is THIS a joke @khloekardashian?โ€

Ouch. That burn was hotter than the fires Chief Crowleyโ€™s team is battling.

The Takeaway
Khloe might want to sit this one out, considering her track record of treating water restrictions like mere suggestions. While sheโ€™s busy calling people jokes, the internet is busy reminding her that excessive water usage during a drought is, ironically, no laughing matter.

Moral of the story? Maybe think twice before calling someone a joke when your lawn has already punchlined its way through 333,000 extra gallons of water.
