California State Water Board is Manufacturing a Drought by
Draining Reservoirs into the Ocean

Original Article

Posted By: Folsomguy, 6/4/2021 5:14:59 PM

In the last 14 days, 90% of Delta inflow went to sea. It’s equal to a year’s supply of water for 1 million people. #ManMadeDrought,” Central Valley farmer Kristi Diener said. Diener, a California water expert and farmer, has been warning steadily that water is unnecessarily being let out to sea as the state faces a normal dry year. “Are we having a dry year? Yes,” Diener says. “That is normal for us. Should we be having water shortages in the start of our second dry year? No. Our reservoirs were designed to provide a steady five year supply for all users, and were filled to the top in June 2019.”

Comments:

This has been going on since jerry brown in the 70's. California used to supply 20 % of the worlds food and captured with dams; plenty of water for it's entire population and for the farmers. Now there are millions of acres fallow, water flowing out to the sea and water rationing. If we build more dams there will be no drought.

We can always count on Leftists to do the exact opposite of what's needed.

The CDC can make a plague from scratch, so why can't a water conservation authority intentionally make a drought? After a while you kinda get the idea that these 'disaster prevention' folks are actually 'disaster creation' folks. Like the 'firemen' who set fires in Farenheit 451.

Central Valley is an agricultural area. No water, less food and prices go up.

Desalination plants would end all worries over droughts. The Pacific Ocean is inexhaustible.

Gavin Newsome (he with the great head of hair, gov of CA and related by a long ago marriage to Nancy Pelosi) is just too incompetent to be governor of CA any longer. Let's get on with this recall ASAP. PS...I love salmon but a measley 1100 salmon is just not worth it.

#8, Gavin Newsom is not nor has ever been related by blood or marriage to Nancy Pelosi. His father’s sister was married to Nancy’s husband’s brother. Newsom’s cousins, if any, from that marriage would be cousins to Nancy’s offspring. Newsom is not related to Nancy in any way.

To #9: Thanks for the ancestry .com lesson. William is Gavin's dad. His sister Belinda Barbara, married Ron Pelosi In 1956. They divorced in 1977. Nancy Pelosi is the wife of Ron Pelosi's brother. Apology accepted.

The constant push to virtue signal to the idol of social justice is causing some of our historically trusted institutions of academia, health care, and journalism to lose the public’s trust and is further splintering our nation. Minnesota seems to be in the epicenter of it all. The Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota recently endowed a new scholarship to honor George Perry Floyd Jr. It’s the wrong decision and undermines the work of the civil rights movement and what we communicate to black American children across the country.

It is no secret that Harris wants to be Joe Biden's vice president. The junior senator from California clearly sees an opening to her real objective: the presidency of the United States. With Biden surprisingly outlasting the other anti-American socialist candidates, Harris recognizes that Biden's age and declining cognitive abilities pose a glorious opportunity to resurrect her presidential ambitions.

During a live radio show Saturday, Roger Stone, the political operative who was spared a prison sentence this month by his friend President Donald Trump, used a racial slur while speaking with the host, who is Black. Stone was speaking on “The Mo’Kelly Show,” a program based at a Los Angeles radio station and hosted by Morris W. O’Kelly, known as Mo’Kelly. On the show, O’Kelly questioned the role that Stone’s relationship and proximity to the president played in the commutation of his sentence. The host asked: “There are thousands of people treated unfairly daily,

With several septuagenarians competing for the presidency, the ghost of the 1990s looms over the 2020 race. Joe Biden has faced criticism for his sponsorship of the 1994 crime bill. President Donald Trump tweeted, "Anyone associated with the 1994 Crime Bill will not have a chance of being elected." Here's some context. Violent crime rates in the United States began a steep climb in the mid-1960s and reached their peak in the early 1990s. Americans were extremely worried. Donald Trump, for example, recommended bringing back New York's death penalty in response to a much-publicized Central Park attack.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in an unprecedented action, announced on Monday that he is invoking the never-before-used Emergencies Act to try and put a stop to the Freedom Convoys that have shut down traffic—and much of the commerce—in Canada. The truckers, protesting vaccine mandates, have clogged roads, leading to chaos on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border. Among other actions, the Canadian government will freeze the assets of truck owners participating in the protests and suspend their insurance policies. In addition, the prime minister said that, under the Emergencies Act, the government will have the power to “compel” tow-truck drivers to remove rigs blocking roads,

If we’ve learned anything from the inhabitants of Planet Looney Tunes over the last couple of years, it is this: Anything and everything the left doesn’t like is racist, misogynistic, or worse. And by “racist,” we’re talking systemic racism — which is tied to white supremacy and the ridiculous notion that all white people — at birth, solely because of the color of their skin — are inherently racist, and for which, they must atone by living proactively anti-racist lives. And, as if we haven’t laughed at these people enough, they now tell us that eating meat is “all of the above.”

Out of the blue, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez launched a Twitter attack on Senator Ted Cruz. As you will see, the gist of the attack is that she thinks Senator Cruz can’t dance the way the cool kids do. The cool kids naturally include her, dancing in a Twitter video, with the person in the foreground of African American descent, and behind her AOC in one of her expensive designer outfits, moving rhythmically to music. [tweet captioned "Ted Cruz could never"] Perhaps this is supposed to be a dig at Cruz as an intellectual nerd

Joe Biden: Stupid Or Liar? 29 replies

Most “either/or” questions are designed to make you choose, but sometimes the correct answer is “both.” When dealing with someone like President Joe Biden, it’s not always possible to know the answer to a simple question: is this man stupid, or is he just a liar? There is ample evidence of both, almost always, but the exact tilt of a scale and in which direction it points for the majority is not always clear. As such, you are sometimes left wondering which it is, but there is little doubt it is at least one and usually some combination of both. So what has me asking this?

Scores of congregations quit United Methodist
Church over gay clergy, same-sex marriage

At least 130 congregations have quietly walked away from the United Methodist Church in a schism over the denomination’s planned acceptance of same-sex marriage and homosexual clergy. The breakaway congregations are keeping their church property thanks to a “conscience clause” enacted by the group’s legislative assembly in 2019. The United Methodist Church General Conference, the church’s governing body, is expected this year to approve a separation plan that would create two denominations: one affirming bans on gay clergy and same-sex marriage, and one permitting homosexual clergy and same-sex marriage. That move has been postponed because of the pandemic and might be delayed again.
