Governor Jerry Brown must allow the Free Flow of the vast amounts of water coming from the North and foolishly being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Can be used for fires, farming and everything else. Think of California with plenty of Water - Nice! Fast Federal govt. approvals.


Can someone try and explain what he's going for here?

What is he saying in this tweet? That the Californian government is choosing to route water into the ocean instead of into reservoirs?

guys they dont keep it in the reservoirs for safety. if a big winter storm hit, as they do, it could over fill and flood. so we keep it less than full to avoid that

but oh yeah fuck public safety right?

Is there some sort of dam or something else he's referencing? Surely he can't be complaining about rivers feeding into the ocean is he?

Governor Jerry Brown must allow the Free Flow of the vast amounts of water coming from the North and foolishly being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Can be used for fires, farming and everything else. Think of California with plenty of Water - Nice! Fast Federal govt. approvals.


Can someone try and explain what he's going for here?


It might be this:
https://www.seattletimes.com/business/california-governor-scales-back-plan-for-giant-water-project/
https://www.sacbee.com/news/state/california/water-and-drought/article198973869.html
https://www.eenews.net/stories/1060057083

tl;dr: Jerry Brown is trying (and failing) to raise money for tunnels to pull from the Sacramento River and redistribute it to nearby towns, whereas currently it dumps into streams that let out into the Pacific.

He also posted this yesterday
California wildfires are being magnified & made so much worse by the bad environmental laws which arent allowing massive amount of readily available water to be properly utilized. It is being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Must also tree clear to stop fire spreading!


Seems like he's genuinely ignorant of how rivers work.

If Trump says rivers work a certain way, then that's how they work. Anyone saying otherwise is spreading Fake News.

I mean, Jerry Brown is also having trouble getting those tunnels made because of environmental regulations:
https://www.sacbee.com/news/state/california/water-and-drought/delta/article208576299.html
Lawsuits are another barrier. At least 58 tunnels opponents, including Sacramento-area governments, fishing groups and a Native American tribe, are suing under California's environmental protection law. Many of those same opponents filed lawsuits challenging the plan's financial arrangements. And in late February, many of these groups filed a fresh lawsuit saying the water board broke state law by secretly meeting with state and federal officials about the project.


Trump says a lot of stupid things, but this feels like one of those instances where people are taking something reasonable and trying to find the dumbest possible interpretation of what was said for the sole purpose of laughing at him.
