The Official Trump is Doing Awesome Thread

Maybe that's what should have already happened. Los Angeles has been warned for decades such a fire was inevitable if they didn't make some changes or beef up infrastructure. DEI hires were more important than putting out fires.

And, pretending that ending 17 years of water mismanagement is a bad thing, is just idiotic. Maybe they'll refill Tulare Lake next.

Pretending Trump ended 17 years of water mismanagement with a magic office memo claiming such is re ed. But here you are.

When was it going to happen, Blake? When were the residents of Western North Carolina going to be moved from tents (in the dead of Winter) to fully furnished apartments? When was the City of Los Angeles going to allow residents to start cleaning up and securing permits to begin rebuilding?

Biden's had 4 months to help hurricane Helene victims.

Were the funds actually in place? I remember a vote was delayed.

"the agency said, the federal government "restarted federal water pumps after they were offline for maintenance for three days," adding: "State water supplies in Southern California remain plentiful."

Who's telling the truth here?

President Donald Trump's administration is set to offer every single federal worker the chance to take a "deferred resignation" with a severance package of roughly eight months of pay and benefits.

A senior administration official said they expect 5-10% of the federal workforce to quit, which, they estimate, could lead to roughly $100 billion in savings.

I don't think so, Snake. They'll get their backs up and refuse to quit.

We'll be extremely fortunate to get 2-5% to leave.

who's going to pay the severance?

Donald Trump?

no money for this has been appropriated by Congress, how can DJT promise to spend it?

[Winehole23]

you'd have to be pretty dumb to take this deal

Probably need to raise it to 2 years as Elon suggested. Start with 8 months combined with daily beatdowns to get the weakest willed ones first. Then increase severance and beatdowns as you go.

You're thinking small, Blake.

I believe this is what he meant by turning on the water:

EMERGENCY MEASURES TO PROVIDE WATER RESOURCES IN CALIFORNIA AND IMPROVE DISASTER RESPONSE IN CERTAIN AREAS

And, this is the principal problem (leading to drought and inadequate water supply) he is trying to rectify:

California is About to Dump 114 Billion Gallons of Water into the Ocean

“Witness AOC, the face of the problem for Democrats on this issue. Just now, you saw this this weekend, right? Trump threatens Colombia. Colombia says, ‘We’re not taking the return flights.’ Trump threatens Colombia with tariffs, alright? AOC jumps on it to score a political gotcha, linking the tariffs Trump threatened against Colombia with higher coffee prices and inflation,” Cuomo said. “Now she cares about inflation. You’re trying too hard, lady. Colombia’s president even retweeted AOC’s post and her squad pals were going off about how Trumpers can’t spell Colombia —which is true, but so what? It’s penny ante BS. The threat worked. Colombia caved.”
