After millions of views spreading lies about the Palisades firefighters lacking water because of regulations, the boring truth comes late like usual and wont be shared. Here it is:
1 - Reservoirs and water tanks were at normal levels and completely full before the fire.
2 - All 114 city water supply tanks were fully stocked pre-fire.
3 - A 15-hour surge at four times normal demand reduced water pressure.
4 - High demand at lower elevations slowed refilling tanks at higher elevations.
5 - This unprecedented fire was fueled by 8 months of no rain and 85 MPH winds. Water is being brought in continuously.
6 - Even if, like Trump claimed, the protection of the Delta Smelt caused over regulation by California, it's the FEDERAL Endangered Species Act that requires the protection of endangered species like the Delta Smelt and their habitats, not Gavin Newsom or California.
I expect the comments to me filled with people personally attacking me for putting this information out. All it does is show that you are unintelligent. Thanks.
Plane Jane at the VMAs dressed up as Chappell Roan acting like she's scared of the cameras 😭 this bitch is playing with FIRE tonight— i'm fucking SCREAMING.

LGBTQI+ Americans are defiantly and unapologetically proud – and my Administration will always stand with them in the enduring struggle for freedom, justice, and equality.
When one group’s dignity and equality are threatened, we all suffer.
Taylor Swift urges fans to hold lawmakers accountable in the voting booth amid ongoing anti-queer legislation in the US:
“We can’t talk about Pride without talking about pain. Right now and recently there have been so many harmful pieces of legislation that have put people in the LGBTQ+ and queer community at risk. It’s painful for everyone. Every ally. Every loved one. Every person in these communities. And that’s why I’m always posting, ‘This is when the midterms are. This is when these important key primaries are.’ We can support as much as we want during Pride Month, but if we’re not doing our research on these elected officials, are they actually advocates? Are they allies? Are they protectors of equality? Do I want to vote for them?”
Taylor Swift delivers Pride Month message to queer fans at her #ErasTour show in Chicago:
“I’m looking out tonight, I’m seeing so many incredible individuals who are living authentically and beautifully, and this is a safe space for you,”
I simply CANNOT be friends with anyone who supports Trump — or DeSantis for that matter. If you do, at the very least that means you’re okay with racism, homophobia, misogyny and fascism. And that’s not okay with me.
HB 900, aka the "Book Burning Act," seeks to outright censor books with any LGBTQ+ themes, characters, or content and require parental permission to access certain other books. And it's being debated by the full House now.

When I’m out in public I’m not worried about trans people or drag queens. My eyes are scanning for that radicalized white boy coming at me with his AR-15.
On this Transgender Day of Visibility, Michelle and I want every trans person in America—and around the world—to know that we see you and we stand with you. Every LGBTQIA+ person deserves to feel safe and protected.
It’s not the drag queens.
It’s not the pot, not the porn, not the trans kids, not the video games, it’s not the locks on the doors, and it sure as shit ain’t the books about Rosa Parks.
You wanna PROTECT OUR KIDS?
Then do something about the motherfucking guns.
🏳️⚧️WE NEED YOUR HELP ➡️
House Bill 1686 has a hearing date on Monday March 27, and if we don’t stop it this bill could ban gender affirming healthcare for transgender youth. Read more for all the ways you can take action. #txraction
Republicans say they’re attacking trans people and drag queens to protect children. But when children are slaughtered via assault weapons — they do nothing.
BREAKING: Yesterday Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert, Andy Biggs, Paul Gosar and other Republicans sent a letter to Pete Buttigieg and the Department of Transportation asking for NTSB documents related to the East Palestine derailment.
Here's the Problem... The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is an independent establishment of the US Government and NOT part of the Department of Transportation.
Since the entirety of the GOP House oversight Committee clearly needs a civics lesson, here you go:
- The (NTSB) investigates every significant accident in the US
- The NTSB is an independent establishment of the United States Government, not part of the Department of Transportation
- The NTSB's job is to make transportation safer by conducting independent accident investigations and by advocating safety improvements
