<p>As thousands of homes started to burn across Los Angeles on January 7th, 20% of hydrants in the Pacific Palisades ran dry. The rapid spread of flames in 100 mph winds meant firefighters used water too quickly for pumps to maintain water pressure. Big questions and misinformation have now surfaced, from a 117-million-gallon reservoir emptied a year ago, to the protection of a small endangered fish that did not impact water supply. CNBC digs in to what really happened with the water in LA and some creative solutions that could help other cities better prepare.</p>

<p>Bluesky got an influx of new users following the U.S. election, largely from individuals looking to flee X. The social medial platform now has over 28 million users.</p>
<p>Bluesky is the brainchild of Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, who conceived it as a side project inside Twitter in 2019. Bluesky, which is no longer affiliated with Dorsey, is now its own company, but whether it can continue its rapid growth and compete with the likes of Elon Musk’s X and Mark Zuckerberg’s Threads remains to be seen.</p>

<p>CNBC Marathon examines multiple factors that cause economic struggle within various U.S. cities.<br />
Spending cuts are abound in many U.S. cities as inflation lingers and pandemic-era stimulus dries up. At least 53 major cities have debt obligations that outstrip their assets, according to an estimate from Truth in Accounting. The group estimates higher debt burdens than many public officials report, due to allegedly underreported retiree benefits. The rising public debt may potentially leave future generations on the hook for financial decisions made by today&#8217;s leaders.</p>
<p>The ongoing migrant crisis is unprecedented, both in scale and the impact it’s had beyond the border states to cities located deep within the country. Major cities like New York, Denver, and Chicago are finding themselves under extreme financial pressure, exacerbated by the lack of federal funding or assistance.</p>
<p>Over 100,000 people moved to Denver, Colorado between 2010-2020, becoming a hotbed of venture capital dollar&#8230;</p>
