And who needs flood protection from Dams? What a waste of money, but does show an excellent example of man’s capability and plans not living up to the hype. You should have healthy skepticism of all these supposed experts they put in front of you, as the real talent is ostracized when they try to shine a light on what they’re actually up to, e.g. the climate hoax.

Mission accomplished.
By Daniel Greenfield
California, which is in a state of perpetually self-inflicted drought, restricts all sorts of practical water solutions based they would hurt some living creature somewhere. (People, especially farmers, don’t count.) And along the way the state decided to demolish a dam to help some salmon.
The destruction was celebrated by environmentalists and rubber-stamped by the media.
Native American tribes, environmentalists and state officials have been big advocates for this dam removal. Governor Gavin Newsom announced “California’s Salmon Strategy for a Hotter, Drier Future” in hopes of restoring salmon populations in the state. The governor lists his six priorities: removing barriers and modernizing infrastructure for salmon migration, restoring habitat, protecting water flows, modernizing hatcheries, transforming technology and strengthening partnerships.
Tribal leaders, environmentalists, and state officials are the only people who count in California.
$500 million was spent to make California a worse place. For human beings. And for salmon too.
Hundreds of thousands of young salmon are believed to have died this week at the site of a historic dam removal project on the Klamath River, after an effort to restore salmon runs on the newly unconstrained river went awry, the Chronicle has learned.
The dead chinook salmon were among the first hatchery fish released on the Klamath since four hydroelectric dams were breached near the California-Oregon border, to allow the river to flow freely again and ultimately help fish flourish.
Kill the fish, help the fish, who can tell the difference.
The $500 million dam removal project, which has been in the works for decades, has had no more fundamental aim than to revive salmon on the Klamath River, once the third-largest population on the West Coast.
Did it really?
Maybe I’m a bit of a skeptical fellow, but I don’t believe that anyone actually cared about the salmon. No more than I think that the border wall lawsuits were really about the welfare of a bug. The purpose of these projects is not about fish or bugs. The fish or bugs are a pretext for the actual goal which is wrecking America.
Measured by this standard, wrecking dams and killing hundreds of thousands of salmon is doubly a success.
If the whole thing manages to kill some people too (as long as they’re non-indigenous people who know which gender they are and might have voted for the wrong party), it’ll be a triumphant trifecta.
The worse, the better.
