FUCK YOU Senator Inhofe
Fuck you and your rightwing red-state climate denial, anti-science, anti-human agenda! When we go down we are taking YOU ALL with us!

This animation today shows TONS of heavy moisture-laden air, our normal winter water harvest EXPLODING JUST OFF COAST, being stopped/blocked/diverted and leading to our current catastrophic state of total collapse. We can't live and grow food without water people!
Our water tables have collapsed in the central valley as farmers try to hold on and keep their lives (and livestock) going.

DON'T FUCK WITH CALIFORNIA!
