  1. @ No SMELT in Los Angeles, they are 500 miles away

  2.  @chip6954  In 1974 there were bumper stickers in Boulder, CO said "Don't Californicate Colorado". Too late.

  4. @edithdlp8045 The weather is the anchor for me, too. I've got friends who left for Florida and Texas and regret it.

  5. That's only the smallest of lie in this video. Los Angeles does not get water from 600 miles north where these rivers and small dams are. Dave is lying.

  6. For what?

  7. @ I'm in LA County. have lived in the Palisades, there was water, why lie? The Stone Canyon Reservoir feeds the Palisades, it was full and fully functional. Why lie? LAFD budget was increased 2024/25. Easy to fact check. Be more curious.

  8.  @ANewPlace  Also, Klamath never used for potable water, only irrigation.
    3
  9. @ The SMELT became Federally endangered in 1993 under Pete Wilson. It became endangered by California by Arnold Schwarzenegger. Easy to fact check. I hate Newsom but support the rewilding of the Klamath. The *rewilding of the Klamath River* is a monumental project focused on the *removal of four hydroelectric dams* along the river. This project, completed in October 2024, is the largest dam removal project in history. The goal is to restore nearly *400 miles of salmon spawning grounds* and revitalize the river ecosystem. The project is expected to have significant positive impacts on the local environment, particularly for the **salmon and steelhead populations**. The removal of the dams has already begun to transform the river, allowing it to return to a more natural state not seen since the 19th century.

  10. Los Angeles had plenty of water to fight the fires. California voted Prop 1 and the SITES RESERVOIR will go online in about 10 years. San Diego has the largest desalination plant in the Western Hemisphere. What are you talking about.
    2
  11. FALSE: Water Supply was not an issue in LA fires, water pressure was. The Stone Canyon Reservoir was full and functional.
    2
  12.  @DrewHall-un8sn  FALSE: The LAFD budget was increased for fiscal year 2024/2025. There was water. The Stone Canyon reservoir holds 3.8 billion gallons and was full and functional. The small tank offline only held 3.3% of that amount. You've been lied to. The *Stone Canyon Reservoir* is quite substantial. It has a surface area of *117 acres (47 hectares)* and a storage capacity of **8,000 acre-feet (9,900,000 cubic meters)**. The reservoir is part of the water supply system for the Westside of Los Angeles, serving around 400,000 people.

  13.  @ANewPlace  Yes, Dave is less interested in Truth/Fact and more in Tequila.

  14. He terms out in 2026. Why are you different from people who watch THE VIEW and believe those lies.

  15. Newsom and Pelosi are NOT related While there was a distant family connection through marriage in the past, **Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsom are not related**. Newsom's aunt, Barbara Newsom, was once married to Ron Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi's brother-in-law, but they divorced in 1977. So, any familial connection ended long before Newsom became governor. It ended when he was 10.

  16. Yes. and that water supply has nothing to do with Los Angeles. Dave is becoming THE VIEW. It's disgusting. Few will uptick your comment. Truth/Fact has few friends and no home.

  17. LA Fires nothing to do with fish 700 miles away

  18.  @robedmund9948  Salmon and Smelt no where near Los Angeles and had nothing to do with LA water supply. Rubin has turned into THE VIEW

  19.  @arashkamangir9824  Not "view" or "opinion" LAFD Budget Increased Stone Canyon Reservoir fully functional LA County Fire Chief, White Male LA does not get water from the Klamath Look at a map of where the dams are and where LA is and gets its water. They are lying, and you want to believe the lie, just as the Woke Left believed the lies about Trump. How are you different?
    1
  20.  @arashkamangir9824  I voted to recall Newsom, voted Trump 2020/24. I "love" truth/fact, why don't you? Newsom had nothing to do with arson fire in the Palisades and the LAFD budget was increased, not decreased. What specific "incompetency" are you speaking of. Newsom signed executive order which allowed LA to capture 96 billion gallons of storm runoff 2022/23. Is that "incompetence". Newsom got Federal funds for the SITES RESOVOIR to be completed in the next ten years. Would have been sooner except for legal battles by both extremes. Instead of Newsom, Californians needs to start looking in the mirror.

  21.  @bite-sizedshorts9635  I live in California, born mid-Century. I lived in Pacific Palisades, my family in the evacuation zone. During the Palisades Fire, the Stone Canyon Reservoir, specifically the Lower Stone Canyon Reservoir, was full. However, even with its 3.3 billion gallon capacity, the availability of this water did not make a significant difference in combating the fire. This is largely because the extreme conditions, including winds gusting over 100 miles per hour, prevented effective water delivery using hoses and aircraft.
    1
  22.  @bite-sizedshorts9635  The water supply to Los Angeles comes from many sources, not just the Sacramento Delta. Even then, there are statewide agreements for water allocation to through the SWP. LA had all the water needed to fight the fires. Water availability was never an issue, water pressure was.
    1
  23. @ Stone Canyon was FULL and serves the Palisades. Water was not an issue, pressure was.

  24. No connection to Los Angeles, that's a lie
    1
  25. That's false. Gavin is part of creating the largest water supply in California. The SITES RESERVOIR. Dave is lying to you.
    1
  26. FALES FALSE FALSE: Los Angeles Reservoirs have NOTHING TO DO with Salmon or Dams 600 miles away in Northern California. The Smelt was made endangered under GOP Governor Pete Wilson in 1993.

  27. CALIFORNIA WATER (DAVE STOP THE LIE) *Sites Reservoir* project is a collaborative effort led by the **Sites Project Authority**, a local agency established in 2010. - **State of California**: Through Proposition 1, which provided $2.7 billion for water storage projects. - **Federal Government**: Over $100 million in federal funding under President Biden's Investing in America agenda. - **USDA**: A $449 million construction loan. - **Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation (WIIN) Act**: An additional $205.6 million in federal funding. The Sites Project Authority is composed of member agencies from the Sacramento Valley, including counties, water districts, and irrigation districts. The project aims to enhance water reliability for California by capturing excess stormwater and storing it for use during dry periods. When completed, it will have a surface area of *14,000 acres (56.66 square kilometers)* and a maximum storage capacity of *1.8 million acre-feet (2.2 cubic kilometers)**. The reservoir will be about **13 miles (21 kilometers) long* and have a maximum depth of **310 feet (94 meters)**. It's designed to capture and store stormwater from the Sacramento River, providing a reliable water supply for California's communities, farms, and environment during dry periods.

  28. DAVE, ask yourself what would JBP think about your lies? Jordan Peterson has spoken extensively about the consequences of lying. He believes that lying creates complexity and problems that can spiral out of control. According to Peterson, lies can backfire in unexpected ways, leading to more significant issues than telling the truth would have. He often uses the story of Pinocchio to illustrate the dangers of lying and emphasizes that honesty is a better strategy, even in difficult situations.

  29. Dave is now less interested in Truth/Fact and more in Tequila profits.

  30. Delta Smelt has nothing to do with water supply in Los Angeles. The new SITES RESERVOIR is the answer to the Delta water issue and should be online in about 10 years, too long, but to say nothing is being done is FALSE.
    1
  31. For what? There was no water shortage in Los Angeles. The salmon runs are 600 miles north of Los Angeles. We don't get water from there.
    1
  32.  @timothykey7429  Explain? The Stone Canyon Reservoir was full and functional. I first lived in Pacific Palisades in 1961. Dave is lying. Be curious. The Smelt and Salmon have nothing to do with the water supply to my home in Los Angeles County. Adam also said only rich people live on the Coast. I live two blocks from the beach, not rich. Why believe their lies when you can easily fact check. Also, the Los Angeles Fire Department budget for fiscal year 2024/2025 was increased, not decreased. All because the Union wanted more benefits. That's why some cuts were made, but the budget was increased, not decreased. More you can fact check. Newsom also cut red tape to allow record runoff to be stored in Los Angeles 2022/23, also easy to fact check. You can either enjoy the gasliighting or be true to yourself.

  34. Nor does the SMELT have anything to do with LA Water supply. LADWP is in part supplied by water from the Eastern Sierra and its snow pack.
    1
  35.  @daveg.6820  FALSE, why are you lying? I said the Eastern Sierra where LADWP owns water rights. The majority of Los Angeles' water comes from *purchased imported water* from the *Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD)**, which accounts for about **73%* of the city's water supply. This imported water is delivered through two major aqueducts: the *Colorado River Aqueduct* and the **State Water Project's California Aqueduct**. (EASTERN SIERRA / OWENS VALLEY) Additionally, *15%* of the water comes from the *Los Angeles Aqueduct**, **10%* from local groundwater, and *2%* from recycled water.
    1
  36.  @daveg.6820  The Palisades water comes from The Stone Canyon Reservoir. 3.8 billion gallons, it was full and functional. The Encino Reservoir also used to fight the fire, and the Pacific Ocean. The *Stone Canyon Reservoir* is located in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles and has a surface area of *117 acres* (47 hectares). It was indeed used to help fight the Palisades Fire, providing a crucial water source for firefighting helicopters to refill and continue their efforts to combat the blaze. The *Encino Reservoir* was used to help fight the Palisades Fire. Firefighting helicopters were cycling between the fire zone and the Encino Reservoir to refill with water and continue their efforts to combat the blaze. The reservoir played a crucial role in providing a nearby water source for the firefighting operations.

  38. Not rigged, and he terms out end of 2026. I'm happy he's not now going to be president, but Dave is lying about the water and the fire dept.
    1
  39.  @bite-sizedshorts9635  What "valves"? State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) has not reduced flow of water. Los Angeles does not get all of its water from them. LADWP owns water rights in the Owens Valley and contracts for water from Colorado River Project.

  40.  @bite-sizedshorts9635  troll, step off

  41. FALSE: Dave STOP Los Angeles captured 96 billion gallons of storm runoff in the newly expanded San Fernando Valley Catch Basin, enough for 2.4 million homes for a year. Other counties are doing the same, and San Diego has the largest desalination plant in the Western Hemisphere.

  42. Stone Canyon Reservoir that feeds Pacific Palisades was full and functional. Easy to fact check
    1
  43.  @joannsmith3589  Because it is a lie. Newsom is not doing what Dave claims and there was NO water shortage in Los Angeles. The Pacific Ocean was even used to fight the fire in the Palisades. Stop the LIE
    1
  44.  @DrewHall-un8sn  Newsom signed executive order to allow storm runoff to be captured by Los Angeles. We captured 96 billion gallons in 2022/23, enough for 2.4 million homes for a year. You are being lied to. Governor Gavin Newsom signed an executive order to help Los Angeles capture stormwater runoff more effectively. This order aims to expedite debris removal and protect communities from landslides and flooding by temporarily suspending certain environmental rules and approval procedures. The goal is to streamline emergency response efforts and ensure that the city can quickly implement measures to capture and store stormwater, especially in areas affected by recent wildfires.

  45. Westside LA reservoir full and functional, Stone Canyon. LAFD budget for 2024/25 was increased, almost to 1 billion dollars. The Eaton Fire in Altadena not part of LAFD and had similar destruction. Altadena gets its water supply from the San Gabriels. Be more curious. MSM lies to you for affect, so does the WOKE RIGHT.

  46. Newsom signed an executive order to allow Los Angeles to capture record storm runoff in 2022/2023. Be curious, fact check. Dave, stop the lie.

  47.  @carolegronitz5025  Pelosi is not Newsom's aunt. That's a lie While there was a distant family connection through marriage in the past, **Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsom are not related**. Newsom's aunt, Barbara Newsom, was once married to Ron Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi's brother-in-law, but they divorced in 1977. Gavin was 11 at the time of that divorce and he didn't know her then.

  50. FALSE, it was two GOP governors who made the Smelt endangered, Pete Wilson and Arnold. We are building new water infrastructure under Prop 1 like the SITES RESERVOIR and Los Angeles has expanded catch basins which capture 96 billion gallons of runoff in 2022/23. Dave is lying to you and you to yourself.

  51. Animals adapted to fire/wind events since before humans arrived 20,000 years ago. It's the humans who failed to adapt.

  52. Smelt made endangered by two GOP Governors, Pete Wilson and Arnold. Easy to fact check

  53. Yes, 600 miles away from the fires in Los Angeles. No connection. Even the Smelt has not connection to LA water supply. Dave is lying.
    1
  54. LADWP here in Los Angeles, yes, no connection, we are partly fed by the Eastern Sierra where LA owns land and water rights. Dave is lying, and has since the fires started.

  55. LA had billions of gallons of water to fight the fire, helped by Newsom executive order. The LAFD budget went up, not down, for 2024/25. No one here responds to facts, only support lies that align with your bigotry. Shame.

  56. Most of these fires started by illegal alien laborers in the building trades here in SoCal where I live. They are angry about mass deportation and laugh about how LA won't be able to rebuild without them. You may think this is a snide remark or joke, but I live and work in the trade. It's the real story about most of these fires. Think blow torch Woodland Hills.

  57. The *Klamath River* itself is not used as a direct potable water source for drinking water. The Klamath River Basin is used for irrigation and supporting wildlife habitats.

  58. FALSE: The Pacific Palisades is fed by The Stone Canyon Reservoir, 3.8 billion gallons of water, it was fully functional and used for the fire. The Santa Ynez was only 3.3% of that capacity. Dave, STOP THE LIE
    1
  59. FALSE - David is lying to you as MSM lied to you about Biden and Trump California Governor Gavin Newsom recently signed an executive order to cut through bureaucratic red tape and expedite efforts to capture storm runoff. This move is aimed at expanding the state's capacity to capture and store stormwater, especially during wet years, by accelerating groundwater recharge projects. The order also includes measures to streamline permitting processes and extend protections against price gouging on essential goods and services for rebuilding efforts. This is part of a broader initiative to enhance California's resilience to extreme weather and climate change.

  60. The SMELT became ENDANGERED under TWO GOP GOVERNORS. STOP THE LIE. The *Delta smelt* was listed as a *threatened species* under the Federal Endangered Species Act on *March 5, 1993**. Its status was later changed to **endangered* under the California Endangered Species Act in **2009**. 1993, the he Governor of California was **Pete Wilson**. 2009, the Governor of California was **Arnold Schwarzenegger**.

  61. Dave Rubin, proof that Truth/Fact has few friends and is homeless. The Rubin Report has become the Woke Right version of THE VIEW.

  62. FALSE The Delta Smelt is no where near the fires. The Stone Canyon reservoir was full and functional. Dave is lying to you. Why do you submit to the lie.
