Unfortunately, I cannot watch the video now. Nothing can be found on the internet about Shell leaving California now or in the future.

I will call BS on video.

I have not watched the video either. Valero refiners is the latest oil/gas company to announce that they are shutting down, leaving the once Golden State.

Some Kalifornians have decided to extend the life of the last nuclear power plant. Diablo Canyon Nuke plant was slated for decommissioning. It has been extended to keep producing electricity.

I suspect that a few of the Pelousy/Newsom Klan live near there, get their electricity there, so that could be the reason.

I know Valero and Phillips are closing.
