I agree with Trump except about the water flowing to the ocean.
the politicians want to dam all of the water to sell it, its big money.
but the water flowing to the ocean is for the Salmon and Steelhead, the migritory fish. without this water we would lose any important food source. Most of So. Cal water comes from the North, they want it all.
(from my comment above but 4 layers deep)

It was the second such order in the past three weeks. The SSJID complied with the first. According to the Manteca Bulletin, a local paper that has been covering the standoff, this flushed out 15,000 acre feet of water and 23 steelhead trout. But this latest order, which would reportedly use another 12,000 acre feet to save only six fish, was too much for Shields. (Fisheries agencies haven't yet confirmed that count.)
One acre-foot of water (the amount of water covering 1 acre to a depth of 1 foot) equals 326,000 gallons or 43,560 cubic feet of water, and weighs 2.7 million. pounds.
California Population 2019. 39,747,267.
(15000 + 12000) x 326000 = 8802000000
8802000000 / 39747267 = 221.45 gallons
Or 221.45 gallons of water for each man, woman and child resident of CA.
And they wanted even more water releases!
I love fishing and I love trout but I'm afraid this data indicates this resource is too expensive to sustain in this manner.

so they say.......
remember they want the water because it is big money $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
What about the farmers? they are using this water too.
Water wars. while the water comes from the North, the south is paying big dollars for water.
Jerry Browns friends got alot of water for free..... or was it a gift for the campaign donations.
the money is in the water rights/

"On Friday, Newsom threatened the state would take over utility if it does't present a plan focused on safety once it emerges from bankruptcy." And how would that help?? Hey Newsom present your plan focused on safety.

With that saved money, he should void walls around the democratic counties of California.

The reality is: If you send it, they will steal it.
They have fucked themselves.
Wake up CA.

They never thought she would lose.
Had Cankles won in 2016, Newsome would get all the money he requested and since there is no budget surplus, the bill would get tagged onto the national debt for our children and grandchildren (ad infinitum) to pay off. And the issues created by Liberal logic would continue unabated, requiring bigger and bigger injections of Federal assistance each year. The high speed rail juggernaut would be Fed funded too.
President Trump was the PERFECT choice to put an end to the ongoing Liberal madness around the country. Thank God for our POTUS! We need more Patriots like him in local offices to really put an end to the waste, fraud and misappropriation of resources.

The fact is that California stopped brush clearing under high tension power lines. That isn't "outdated equipment"; it's maintenance. Liberalism is more of a disaster than global warming ever will be.
[–] Lurker17 [S] ago (edited ago)
How much would it cost to hire people to do that work? A couple Billion each year? Instead Newsome allows blackouts, thousands of acres burned endangering the lives of his constituents and firefighters, destroying private property and infrastructure in order to receive Federal funding earmarked to remedy the problem and to rebuild; which he promptly redirects to backfill the deficits he has created with his Liberal agenda.
This is as insane as withholding $5B requested by POTUS to build the wall when we are spending $100B/year (rough estimate) on supporting people we didn't invite here, don't want here (unless they come through the front door) and they keep coming. Dems seldom fix anything, they prefer to "manage" it using your money and their benefactors.
edit - Just came across this -

I can't tell you how much it costs, but I know that utility companies in other states do clear under the towers, at least enough to keep the inspection roads open and trees off the lines.

And so he should. They're burning down their state and turning it into a socialist outpost as fast as they can while expecting Trump to compensate them.
Let Nancy buy a round for once!

They are trying to prove Climate Change and push Agenda 2030.
Before Moonbeam left office he said; In a couple of years everyone will believe in Climate Change.
This is about taking over CA. PGE is owned by the Rothschilds. While some of the fires are organic, the rest are planned.
Prepare for food shortages. Between Global Cooling and destroying CA we will face shortages soon.
