All we heard was the price of groceries....especially eggs, and of course it was Biden's fault. THe Orange Genius ran on reducing prices on "groceries" on day one.
Most people do not believe his lies.........but you seem to.
Another one of his showboating ways that looks good to the MAGA minions, but does nothing to help.

Acting on an order from Washington, the corps allowed irrigation water to flow down river channels for three days, into the network of engineered waterways that fan out among farm fields in the San Joaquin Valley. Coursing from rivers to canals to irrigation ditches, much of the water eventually made its way to retention basins, where it soaked into the ground, replenishing groundwater.
“It’s been recharged to the ground,” said Tom Barcellos, president of the Lower Tule River Irrigation District and a dairyman and farmer. That sounds good, except farmers in parts of the San Joaquin Valley typically depend on water from the two dams to irrigate crops in the summer. In other words, the release of water this time of year, when agriculture usually doesn’t require it, means that growers are likely to have less water stored in the reservoirs this summer, during a year that so far is among the area’s driest on record.
“These kinds of shenanigans, they hurt smaller farmers,” said Dezaraye Bagalayos, a local water activist. Small growers have already been struggling, and the release of water from the dams means they will have less when they need it, Bagalayos said.
“The last thing in the world California water management needs is somebody like Trump calling shots when he doesn't know how anything works,” Bagalayos said. “It's making an already hard situation very, very difficult. We don't have a lot of wiggle room in the state of California to be messing around with our water supply like this.”
All for show........as usual! |
