Kim Kardashian made higher wages for incarcerated firefighters her latest “cause” amid California’s destructive wildfires, but one formerly incarcerated firefighter—Machete actor Danny Trejo—says the Kardashian is barking up the wrong tree.

Kim Kardashian is again leaping to defend the incarcerated and those she sees as unjustly treated by the U.S. government, this time advocating for incarcerated firemen in an Instagram Story posted over the weekend explaining how they are risking their lives to save the Los Angeles community for just $1 an hour.

Kardashian called incarcerated firefighters "heroes" as she asked Gov. Gavin Newsom to lift wages for those "risking their life to save our lives and homes."

Bows, clips, cuffs, bands (I could go on): hair accessories are having a moment. A resurgence of interest in tortoiseshell headbands by Charles J Wahba – a favourite of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy – has even seen New York customers making pilgrimages to the Upper East Side pharmacy she purchased shampoo and scrunchies from.

Aside from previously announced donations to those affected by the wildfires, Kardashian is calling on California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise incarcerated firefighters' wages "to a rate [that] honors a human being risking their life to save our lives and homes."

Danny Trejo rebukes Kim Kardashian’s comments on incarcerated firefighters’ pay, urging her to focus on fire victims.

Trejo said he supports advocating for prisoner rights but that the focus right now should remain on immediate relief for the California wildfire victims.

Danny Trejo has no time for those using the California wildfires to promote their own agendas, no matter how noble they may be. In a new interview with TMZ, the Machete star called out his fellow celebs—with a nod to Kim Kardashian in particular—voicing frustration with the lack of focus on the Los Angeles residents who have lost everything.
