'Very dangerous': Trump dumps billions of gallons of water farmers were counting on for summer

[ThePunish-EER]

Sorry not sorry but my post is true. It's a loyalty test fool and you can't defend what he's doing to the entire federal workforce. They literally want every federal worker to quit. I'd like to see every federal worker just walk off the job for a week or so. Air traffic controllers, everyone, just shut the nation down and see how that goes. I hope it comes to it. Trump likes drama.

You’re slowly learning. Except it’s a loyalty to the constitution

• President Bill Clinton fired all 93 U.S. attorneys on the same day in March 1993.
• Obama fired 197 senior military officers after taking office
• The Obama administration terminated inspector generals
• Biden fired all military academy board members appointed Trump regardless of their qualifications
• Biden fired Social Security Commissioner Andrew Saul after he refused a request to resign
• Biden Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin dismissed hundreds of members across 42 advisory boards
• Biden removed all Senate-confirmed U.S. attorneys appointed during the Trump administration
• Barack Obama fired 600 Bush appointees from the Defense Department.

This 100%.

The Dems tried to embed their operatives all over the Fed with last minute reclassifications of employment in an attempt to preserve deep state bureaucracy so that their bullshit couldn’t be undone.

The reality is the executive branch reports to and works for the Chief executive, and the chief executive is the POTUS. Congress can appropriate funds at certain levels for the departments, but Congress doesn’t get to set the agenda of the departments. There is no obligation or requirement to use the appropriated funds, you can run more efficiently and all branches should always be looking to do that. Not doing so and operating in a construct where you have to spend your budget, is exactly why the Fed has grown and we have runaway spending issues. I’ve watched so much waste at the end of FYs just so they can justify an increased budget the following year. It’s disgusting.

Trump has a mandate from the American people to get this shit under control. Of course the deep state is going to fight like hell stop it. The court delays are just that, Trump will be able to implement his policy.

yeah, a lawless dictator is real refreshing. Right now it's only temporary hope for democracy from lower courts who have stayed his unconstitutional funding freezes, birth right citizenship and other EOs because MAGA SCOTUS is waiting to rewrite the constitution to consolidate power in the executive and neuter congress. "mission-aligned" not law aligned. Asking every employee if they'll follow Trump over established law and following the constitution lets us know the final battle is enjoined. With the attack on federal employees Trump is creating the deep state that never existed except in MAGA folk tales but which may finally come to reality, thankfully otherwise who will stop this authoritarian government take over? Trump was elected to lower grocery prices (not transform the gov't) which is not going so well and his tariffs will just make them go higher. Blame it all on DEI.

"People are being moved reassigned, fired or otherwise [put] under pressure, if they are not able to say that they are mission-aligned, which is the phrase being used by the transition team to mean you will carry out the orders of the president regardless of whether they’re lawful or not."

@moe ...how does a "Dictator" win office in an electoral landslide?

@moe

I'm not answering that because then I'd have to explain why my worthless candidate (s) couldn't beat him?

Well just damn then @moe , guess you have to just live with what "we the people" decided by our own votes huh?

@moe

That's too depressing to even think about, even worse being forced to accept.

Poor guy.

This simpleton (moe) believes a dictator is someone who believes in and utilizes the constitution and enforces the laws.

 

[atlkvb]

We had an election. Trump won and was given a huge mandate by the American people. Cope better.

I'd like for that bot to explain what "Laws" Trump is asking folks in the Federal bureaucracy to break?

Quote from his article:
"People are being moved reassigned, fired or otherwise [put] under pressure, if they are not able to say that they are mission-aligned, which is the phrase being used by the transition team to mean you will carry out the orders of the president regardless of whether they’re lawful or not."

OK, so what "Laws" have been ordered to be violated? Oh I do hear Blue city Mayors promising to defy immigration LAWS and I do see deep State apparatchiks refusing to enforce Federal Laws, but I do not see Trump telling anyone to break the Law following his EOs,

@moe can 'ya link us to one or two Federal Laws Trump has ordered Federal employees to violate?

@moe

Get real atl. You're just trolling me now because you know I could never factually answer that and probably never will answer any of your "gotcha" questions with true or provable facts! So why do you even bother?

Well @moe maybe it's because I love to see you struggle when you get caught in your obvious Trump lies fed by Leftist media spin?

@moe...struggling to answer when asked to show us what "Laws" Trump is demanding Federal employees violate?

I'm still waiting for an explanation on how a "Dictator" wins over 300 electoral College votes? 🤔

There are no limits to Trump stupidity. He just keeps topping himself.

'Very dangerous': Trump dumps billions of gallons of water farmers were counting on for summer

However, water managers in Tulare County told Bakersfield, California-based news site SJV Water — which covers water issues in the San Joaquin Valley – that there are multiple physical and legal barriers that prevent the valley's water from getting to Southern California. SJV Water reported that the water would have to be "pumped at great expense" across the valley to the California Aqueduct, where it would still need to travel hundreds of miles to make it to the Los Angeles area.

“Every drop belongs to someone,” Kaweah River Watermaster Victor Hernandez told SJV Water. “The reservoir may belong to the federal government, but the water is ours. If someone’s playing political games with this water, it’s wrong.”

The two dams are considered important reservoirs of water for farmers in the San Joaquin Valley, which is known for its "Citrus Belt" that produced more than four million tons of citrus fruits — particularly Mandarin, Navel and Valencia oranges, along with grapefruits and lemons — in the 2020-2021 season alone. Tulare County water manager Dan Vink said the release of water from the dams could make irrigation difficult.

"A decision to take summer water from local farmers and dump it out of these reservoirs shows a complete lack of understanding of how the system works and sets a very dangerous precedent," Vink said. "This decision was clearly made by someone with no understanding of the system or the impacts that come from knee-jerk political actions."

Climate scientist Peter Gleick — who specializes in water issues — lamented on Bluesky that water resources farmers had been "relying on" were effectively "thrown away" by the Trump administration all for the sale of "a photo op & a bragging media post."

"This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting," Gleick wrote. "It is now lost."

MSNBC called the election for Trump.

suck it bitch!

I actually celebrate his "ignorance" as a badge of accomplishment, so I take every chance I get to point it out to the rest of the board while he "ignores" me.

Farmers Plead ‘Stop Our Fields Flooding’ as Trump Opens Dams

“Something really bad could happen because of their nonsensical approach,” said a former official at Bureau of Reclamation, the primary agency responsible for delivering water in the western U.S. “Floods are real. This isn’t playing around with a software company.”

At this rate Vance might win California in 2028.
