    I'm looking forward to Dumpy's ramblings about this, ha ha...

    • The botskis are saying that this isn't for Trump, it's so she can remove Biden after the inauguration and install Harris. ;-)

        I believe the fish in question is the delta smelt. It needs the rivers/stream tributaries for spawning. After spawning once it dies. The young fish then go back downstream to the estuaries to mature before going back up to spawn. It needs some level of minimum flow to get up to ideal spawning habitat. They have a low fecundity (low number of eggs) and spawning success has been declining. Like many small non-game fish they are an important part of the ecosystem and food chain. I am not certain but I would imagine they are a an indicator species as well. Their decline means bad things for that river system. They are currently listed as critically endangered but may very well be functionally extinct. Many of the specimens in the system are being hatched in labs and released in a desperate attempt to save them.

        Lots of people blame the smelt for the loss of water for irrigation and then subsequent job loss. However, it has been countered by others that the loss of water for irrigation is more to do with the massive and long lasting drought that California has been going through for years. Based on what reading I have done and my limited knowledge of water use rights and what not (and because I am not an derp idiot), I am inclined to agree with the drought reason. I don't know the specifics of the court orders, but I would venture that it was set so that some minimal flow would be maintained in the river. Now, with already record low flows due to droughts, it greatly reduces the water than be taken for irrigation. If there was good flow, it is likely that they would be able to get good water with minimal impact on flows of the river.

        Long story short: Trump is a moron and has no clue what he is talking about. But we all knew that.

        • This Pelosi Commission thing is stupid. It is bad optics and even if they feel Trump isn't fit for office there is no way this legislation will A) pass in time or B) have the teeth to actually do anything. I mean it is a solid troll move, but it does nothing to help.

            Yeah it just let's them play victim while not having the power to really do anything. Unless she knows a lot more about what is happening and can definitively prove it.

            • I don’t recall her doing a lot of stupid moves so I’m hoping there’s more to it

              Comment


              • She has been particularly cautious about that kind of move in the past. Have to think they are trying to force a hand or see some other predictable political value.

                • There isnt. The legislation wont even pass in time for the election let alone fast enough to do anything about Trump. Congress is not in legislative session. This is a worthless move that does more to help Trump legitimize his "The Democrats are trying to steal it" crap than it will make him look unfit.

                  There is no need for this move...Trump makes himself unfit every time he goes off. Now you are giving the other side a counter attack for no reason.

                  If she wants more info on his COVID issues that is one thing...but mentioning invoking the 25th is ridiculous. That is for anonymous clowns like us to do not for the SOTH one month before the election. Once more, she basically acknowledges this at her PC. This is about the future...so wait til after the election to do it.

                  • My wife and I were just talking about this. She got to watch the presser, I didn't see it. My take is that literally no one knows what she's doing here but her and a couple trusted cohorts. We don't know if this is a move at a needed structural change, trolling Trump, actually making a move because he's incompetent, using it as a delay tactic for the ACB proceedings. We have absolutely no idea. Like DGF said, she doesn't make many stupid moves. I honestly can't think of one off the top of my head.

                    Hearing the press trying to explain what she's doing is hilarious. They have no ****ing clue.

                    • There is no move to make over his incompetence. Congress can't force the issue as of now. (it has to be referred to them) The legislation she is touting wont even be voted on most likely and will never pass with the current make up of Congress. There is no there there.

                      The idea itself has a ton of merit because the Legislative Branch should have the ability to look into it (even though it will be abused to high heaven at some point) but for this specific case she is out to lunch. Her quote about how Trump will face the voters proves she knows this wont go anywhere before this election. This is a structural change for the future and she is using it as a way to take a jab at the President that is unneeded.

                        1. Optics isn't real.
                        2. It's trolling to make his orange head pop off.

                        • He is doing that on his own. This is unneeded. This is like the coach faking a fg up 20 in the 3rd quarter to try and run up score. You gain nothing but risk an unforced error screwing things up.

                          Just stay out of the way...the guy is hanging himself by the hour.

                          And ask Hillary if optics matter. Ask Al Franken. Ask any number of Dems who get in trouble over optics if they don't think they are real.

                              I agree. Like her or not, Pelosi is one of the best in Washington at playing the political game. I have no idea what’s she’s up to, but I wouldn’t underestimate what it is.
