For some strange reason, this is getting scant coverage in the media. Drudge has a blurb but that’s about it.

I said yesterday, that residents downstream of the Oroville dam, should ignore all the assurances of the state officials, and get the hell out.

I agree that they will blame Trump — but this entire project seems to be 100% State of California.

Prayers for all. Hope the spillway doesn’t fail
To: Mariner
Was it yesterday when the water breached the spillway? Not like they did not have warning but wait until you have a 1 hour margin?? California.

This is a mirage. There is still a severe drought. So Says Holy Moonbeam, blessed be his name.
