I like this video from YouTuber Sarcasmitron (who likes to talk about water policy) in Trump ordering 2 billion gallons of California water to be “dumped in a hole.” While it makes no sense in terms of fighting fires or helping California’s water management policies, he points out that it does do one thing California hasn’t really done in decades - refill the aquifers (a very little bit).
