President Trump falsely claimed on Truth Social that the U.S. military had entered California to restore water supplies, which the California Department of Water Resources quickly debunked. They clarified that federal water pumps were restarted after maintenance, and sufficient water supplies are available in Southern California. This statement followed Trump’s recent visit to the area affected by wildfires and his signing of an executive order aimed at redirecting water to farmers in California’s Central Valley. Trump has a history of inaccurately linking state water management to firefighting inefficiencies.
On Monday night, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, the social media platform he owns, to falsely claim that the U.S. military entered California and 'turned on the water.'
