State water officials say military ‘did not enter California’ and ‘federal government restarted federal water pumps’
California water officials said this week there’s no truth to Donald Trump’s assertion that the US military has entered California and “turned on the water”.
Trump’s comments, made on Monday on his social media platform Truth Social, are the latest in a series of remarks he’s made and actions he’s taken related to the state’s water policy following devastating wildfires that ripped through the Los Angeles area this month. He’s often offering an incomplete or incorrect assessment of the state’s water policies or tying together unrelated issues.
