| Let's get to the Delta smelt. | |
| And also, Rick Lowkey shares with me, apparently, in California, environmentalists won't allow sea lions to be removed, even though the beach gives them a fatal disease. | |
| The people in California are just loony. | |
| And this has to be busted up because so goes California, so goes the nation. | |
| If you want to care about the people in North Carolina, you have to make sure if you want to see the government, all right, people within government, I should say, all right, but people within government care about the people in North Carolina, whether it's a Democrat or Republican, you want to make sure that left-wing crazy policies like California go bye-bye and that you impose some common sense or implement, I'm sorry, some common sense there where you... | |
| You actually care about people, policies that are concerned about the livelihoods, the safety of people. | |
| Because if Democrats understand or are concerned about people, then all of a sudden that filters out throughout the entire country. | |
| California has a major influence. | |
| New York and all these, I think there's 12 other states that were following California's emission standards. | |
| California was literally destroying the car industry in the United States of America, allowing China to grow their car industry by mandating these EVs. | |
| Just hooking up our adversary. | |
| And 12 moronic states followed suit. | |
| You cannot leave leftism alone in California. | |
| Let's get to the Delta smelt for those of you that have heard about this. | |
| So, runoff from the mountains in Northern California, the Wall Street Journal columnist writes, feeds into the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, which is connected to the San Francisco Bay. | |
| Pumps at the south push water to forms in California's Central Valley and Southern California cities. | |
| But because the smelt sometimes gets trapped in the pumps, federal and state officials... | |
| Have restricted how hard those pumps can run. | |
| Billions of gallons of water flow into the Pacific as a result, instead of Californians catching them in the reservoirs, which was the problem with these L.A. wildfires. | |
| Yet the smelt population, listen to this, has declined, owing to non-native predator fish and other Delta denizens that out-competed for food. | |
| The smelt actually appeared to have gone extinct in 2020, but scientists at UC Davis raised a refugee population in a lab. | |
| In 2021, they released more than 12,000 smelt, delta smelt, perpetuating the excuse to limit water flows to farmers. | |
| So they used this fish that was a common fish. |
