🚨 California is about to get PUMMELED by Flooding... Rain as a powerful Atmospheric River targets the state. ⚠️The highest rainfall totals will be in Southern California, where the National Weather Services has issued a RARE HIGH RISK of flooding for Los Angeles and surrounding areas. 🌧️Rain Totals could reach 10 inches or more, which would normally be beneficial, but falling in such a short time could lead to dangerous and potentially catastrophic flooding. Our California brethren, especially across Southern California, should begin preparing now for days of flooding rain. Pay close attention to local weather warnings, and if evacuation orders are issued, do not wait. The West Coast is once again bracing for another major storm. 🌧️❄️show more

❗️🌊🇺🇸 - TSUNAMI WARNING IN EFFECT: A tsunami is... projected to impact the ocean and bay coastlines around 12:00 PM today. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has pinpointed the earthquake's epicenter approximately 45 miles offshore from Petrolia, California. The tsunami warning remains active, urging those in affected zones to seek higher or inland areas promptly. If you are near beaches or the coast, immediate evacuation to higher ground is critical. If unable to reach high ground, move to at least the second floor of a sturdy building. Regional Impact: Oregon and California: Evacuations are underway in response to the tsunami threat. Bay Area: Evacuation warnings are being issued for specific regions. Expect significant coastal flooding and powerful currents that could pose serious risks. Stay vigilant and prioritize your safety by following emergency protocols. Stay Informed: For the latest developments, please visitshow more

🚨New Start, California: Besides the Palisades, Eaton, and Hurst... Fires… The Lidia Fire has started in Acton, California. I’ve been told crews including Dalton Hotshots got the call along with aircraft, but winds have caused the helicopters to be grounded for the time being. The fire is 50+ acres and growing, with 1/2 mile spotting. Multiple tankers ordered. Evacuations have begun near Soledad Canyon Road and south to Arrastre Canyon Road. The main goal right now is to keep the fire from jumping SR40. This thing could rip into the Hurst fire in no time. Got a message this afternoon that feelers were being put out in Canada for crews and engines. There may finally be a VLAT available this late afternoon. 📷: Craig Tollisshow more

Well, let’s see, you piece of garbage: A: Over... $100 million in fire aid just vanished. B: Over $24 billion for the homeless disappeared. C: Over $100 billion for a train to nowhere. U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, Bill Essayli: “Gov. Gavin Newsom is the KING of FRAUD.” “They told the people of California they would spend a few billion dollars to build this rail.” “We’re talking about over $100 BILLION now. There is NO RAIL. There is no rail in California! Who took the money? He is the KING OF FRAUD. There has never been this much fraud in the history of America!” 📝 And now, according to the California High-Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA), the estimated cost is $135 billion.show more

Again, Speaker Mike Johnson just lied to the American... people about Democrats and the shutdown. He claims the “Big Beautiful Bill” eliminated the California loophole that supposedly gave Medicaid to “illegal immigrants.” That’s 100% false. 🧵 The so-called California loophole isn’t federal at all. It’s California using its own state tax dollars to expand Medi-Cal to undocumented residents. Federal Medicaid dollars have never funded that. And the BBB didn’t (and couldn’t) eliminate it. Federal law is crystal clear: undocumented immigrants are not eligible for full Medicaid. The only exception is Emergency Medicaid (life-threatening emergencies + childbirth), which hospitals must provide by law. That’s been the rule for decades. So when Speaker Johnson says Democrats want to “bring back” Medicaid for undocumented immigrants? He’s lying. There was never a federal loophole to begin with. And the BBB targeted legal humanitarian immigrants, not the undocumented.show more

So much for the environmentalists in California - California... already has roughly 321 days centers - At least 280 of those were built of expanded post-2022 - There are at least 54 more data centers currently planned in California - Combined all the current data centers use the equivalent of roughly 1,000,000 average US homes - The newly planned data centers will use the equivalent of 1 million more homes - They currently use about 50+ billion gallons of water per year, potentially rising to 120+ billion gallons by 2028 But yeah… drilling some oil and driving a gas car is the problem…. California Democrats are frauds. They don’t care about the environment or climate changeshow more
