“California already moves water from north to south. It is called the State Water Project. It is the largest aqueduct in the Western Hemisphere. It is visible from space. It has the tallest and the largest dam in America (Oroville). California also pops out a new dam or reservoir every 4-5 years so no nonsense we don’t build.
The delta smelt is a federally protected species by George HW Bush. So if someone were to be in charge of the federal government, as they were before, they could probably change that if they wanted to.
Regardless, Los Angeles is a city that gets its water primarily from the LA Aqueduct and Colorado River Aqueduct, the other largest aqueducts in America. Neither of them the smelt lives in.”
Really this just seems like Trump already going to the well to beat up on the conservative’s favorite punching bag – California.

Jesus Christ so we’re calling the last gasps of a functional river system in this state wasteful, but doing absolutely nothing to reform use it or lose it water rights flooding deserts to sell alfalfa to the Saudis.
Over/under on number of years before Newsom makes the NCR real?
