“Trump's threat to cut off funding is profoundly dangerous,” said Chad Hanson, a research ecologist and spokesman for the John Muir Project.
The Prez is correct. We have a house of fools in Sacramento.
PDJT is correct, California State agencies and employees are malfeasant and incompetent.
“The real problem, he said, would be in the national forests, which are not under Cal Fire’s jurisdiction.”
The long term drought stresses the forest, bark beetles attack weak trees, the trees die. No one is allowed to thin out the forest so that the remaining trees are strong enough to resist bark beetles.
I thought that this was a federally created problem, but maybe not. It’s not as if this state isn’t run by lunatic environmentalists in addition to the usual latino communists.
I suppose, if you're a leftist moron.
Solutions are simple. Burn more forest, particularly brush. And/or clear more forest, particularly brush.
How do we know this? Because the average acreage burned each year before 1800 was about 4 million.
The tinfoil hat theory is that the fires are being intentionally set to benefit Jerry’s kids(illegals)with federal dollars.
It’s a wild theory but if most of the fires are on federal land there’s another piece of the puzzle that fits.
It sucks here in Jerry’s HOA Paradise.
The man is tireless.
Incessant cattle prod.
A truly impressive leader.
Trump speaks common sense. Wait for the left-wing screamers...
“The state funds several programs that allow Cal Fire to remove dead trees and brush, as well as perform controlled burns, McLean said.”
But this is only a recent development. Trump is right, we had a cabin in the Sierras and all around in the Sequoia National Forest there was downed trees and brush untouched for decades.
All I did was use Google earth to see a billion dead dried up trees across California. Nobody is allowed on the fancy shmancy Wilderness Areas except by foot anymore. Nobody is going to clear out what they aren’t allowed to drive to. Pretty simple stuff.
She finished her tirade, paused, and said ‘there aren't any fire roads.’
She's by no means a convert; I bet she'll still hate his twitter feed and a number of other things. The only thing that really changed is her belief that every single thing the president does is wrong; from immigration to trade to water rights to forest management, she found herself siding with the president time and time again.
I'll be interested to see how much others can reprogram her to spout the authorized memes of liberals who have already predetermined her opinions by Sunday.
Trump is exactly correct.
