California got a thing called senior water rights, which means whoever got there first gets the water. Like, basically, it's my land. I licked it. Right. But they only got them rights when it started from the gold rush. So they was like, well, who was there first? Was this white man, not the people that already lived there, but these white men.

Now, why that is specifically important for California, especially the Central Valley, is because Cali provides everybody's produce. I mean, for the rest of the country, the vast majority of the fruits, vegetables, nuts and lagoons that you eat come from California. We got to have water. It would behoove the rest of America to make sure that Cali got water. So those are water rights.

Now, the water that gets pumped down into our fire hydrants. Here's the situation like that had to do a water pressure. Now, you could refer to the block is literally hot episode where I go into detail as to what happened with that. But there was this whole thing about the water being owned by some billionaires. Now, I would love to run with that one, but the fact is that's just not true.

It's not that simple. Let me go ahead and fact check that. So the Wonderful Co., which is who they were talking about, it's Stewart and Linda Resnick. They do have a majority stake in... a water bank that can store up to 1.5 million acres, right? Which is close to 500 billion gallons of water. But the realness is that's like a tiny fraction of the water capacity of California.

California's groundwater basins combined can hold more than 566 times as much water with a storage capacity of 850 million to 1.3 billion acres of feet across the California Department of Water Sources. The state's surface resources... hold more than 40 million acres on top of that. So there's two types of water here. There's surface water and there's groundwater.

Groundwater, obviously, that's stuff that you would dig in for a well. That's a whole other thing, right? Now, it is true, this family owns brands like Wonderful Pistachios, Fiji Water, Wonderful Land Halos, Wonderful Halos, and Palm Wonderful. And that's a, you know, I don't know if you're into pomegranate juice, but if that's your thing. But anyway, let me quote from PolitiFact.
