The Valley's dueling constituencies for water - Big Ag and Big Housing Tracts - need to learn to do more with less. Global Climate Change has a big impact on snowfall in the Sierra Nevada, and water districts will get less.

Fact of life.

Stop coming after wildlife habitat.

The Valley needs more water - period. Really proud to be bringing this funding home.

Doug Burgum is stealing over $90 million from National Parks to fund Trump's D.C. vanity projects and political MAGA rallies. Meanwhile, parks face a maintenance backlog of over 24 billion.

Trying to understand how it’s legal for a POTUS to tell voters he’ll ensure their state receives funding if they vote like he tells them to while promising they won’t receive the said funding if they disobey his orders on who to vote for

Thought we fought a revolution over this?

@KFILE Just noting that I've never seen Rep. Kean and @RepJackKimble in the same room at the same time. Coincidence?

[Berkeleyan @ 🦋 @bswp]

@Milajoy What a stupid question. A mortgage is owed to a bank, property taxes support the safety and literacy of your community, even long after the bank has been repaid.

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

Donald Trump commuted the sentence of a health care executive who was convicted in a $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme.

[Berkeleyan @ 🦋 @bswp]

@RepJackKimble If Trump would just commute their sentences, Jake and Elwood could get the band back together!

Not getting enough attention: the one-page order from Todd Blanche to wipe out every audit of Donald Trump.

Many experts believe it’s illegal, and here’s why.

Federal law prohibits the President or his aides from directing or halting an IRS audit. Agents who carry out a politically motivated audit, or stop one at the direction of the White House, can face prison time. That is the statute on the books.

Now look at what just happened.

Todd Blanche, the Acting Attorney General and Donald Trump’s former personal criminal defense lawyer, signed a one-page order demanding the IRS drop every existing audit of Trump, his family, and their “affiliates.” One of those audits reportedly could have cost Trump more than $100 million.

The Treasury Department’s top lawyer resigned over it.

The acting top IRS lawyer had to recuse himself because he previously represented Trump in his tax cases.

There is no precedent for an Attorney General ordering an end to audits of a group of taxpayers. Many experts say the Attorney General has no authority to do this.

So we have a likely illegal order, signed by the President’s former lawyer, on behalf of the President, protecting the President. And the only people with jurisdiction to investigate it work for the President.

I will fight this with every tool I have.

Highway 1 through Half Moon Bay is an exemplar for the kind of traffic congestion Roundabouts can relieve.
