Mexico Has Stolen 400 Billion Gallons of Texas Water
Under the leadership of Sleepy Joe Brandon, Mexico took it upon itself to steal 400 billion gallons of water from Texans. Now, many people are saying Trump is about to seek vengeance on our behalf.
MEXICO CITY, April 9 (Reuters) - Mexican officials are scrambling to come up with a plan to increase the amount of water the country sends to the United States because of growing concern that President Donald Trump could drag a dispute over an 81-year-old water treaty into trade negotiations, according to three sources familiar with the matter.
Under a 1944 treaty that outlines water sharing between the two countries through a network of interconnected dams and reservoirs, Mexico must send 1.75 million acre-feet of water to the U.S. from the Rio Grande every five years. An acre-foot of water is enough to fill about half an Olympic swimming pool.
The current five-year cycle is up in October, but Mexico has sent less than 30% of the required water, according to data from the International Boundary and Water Commission.
Nobody knows what an acre foot is. Why wouldn’t they just use gallons? It’s like they don’t want people to know the truth.
We did the math—Mexico has stolen about 400 billion gallons of water, and towards the end of the Rio Grande, the flow is likely half what it should be. Mexicans are habitual lawbreakers it would seem.
The Mexican water stealing crisis curiously correlates with our own water shortage crisis. You may have heard we are having some issues with water supplies in Texas.
The Mexican water theft crisis and subsequent water supply crisis is leading to an infrastructure spending crisis.
The water lost from the Mexican theft rivals water lost from our leaking pipe crisis.
Now, we have to pay to fix the leaky pipes, and create new water supplies!
A boil notice is when your public water system falls out of compliance with drinking water standards, and is no longer safe to drink. This is usually caused by a failure in the infrastructure. Analysis of the search term “boil notice” on Google Trends shows that Texas is leading the pack.
Why did Mexico say they are stealing from us?
They say “climate change” has made it dry in the desert.
Shocking, right?
Mexico contends that a historic drought fueled by climate change makes it impossible to fulfill its water commitments, a scenario for which the treaty offers leniency, allowing the water debt to be rolled over to the next five year cycle.
But that excuse has fallen on deaf ears among Texas Republicans who have publicly accused Mexico of being chronically delinquent in its water deliveries and flagrantly ignoring the treaty.
We did some more MATH on the great Mexican water heist.
Texas households use 2.3 billion gallons of water per day. That means Mexico has stolen 174 days worth of water from Texas households over the last 5 years. That’s more than a month’s supply of water stolen every year!
This theft has also led to a reduction in our groundwater reserves.
It’s really a Texas-sized scam by these Mexicans.
Frisco High School Stabbing Police Report
It’s been out for a few days but here’s a copy of the police report from the stabbing involving two high school students in Frisco.
On page two of the report, Anthony Karmelo claims that he was protecting himself and that Austin Metcalf had “put hands” on him.
