And, the tragedy had nothing to do with DOGE cuts.If you are someone who has exploited this catastrophe because you just don’t like Trump, you need to take a serious look in the mirror.

You tried to use this against Trump. Since you DUmmies had to go there, compare the response-time and cooperation by the Trump administration vs. how the previous administration handled hurricane Helene. The only thing Biden's "teams" could provide quickly was excuses.

Let's Talk FACTS: While Dems Act Like Ghouls, Meteorologist Chris Martz Sets the Record STRAIGHT on NWS, Texas Flooding

The usual suspects are exploiting this tragedy to score political brownie points. Some left-wing activists are blaming this flood on “climate change,” others are blaming the deaths and missing persons on inadequate warning caused by low staffing at the National Weather Service (NWS) caused by Trump administration federal RIFs.

First of all, staffing cuts played no part in this tragedy.

The NWS issued a flood watch for Kerr County more than 12 hours ahead of the flood. They also issued a flash flood warning for Hunt and Ingraham THREE HOURS before the Guadalupe River began to climb. There was plenty of lead time with respect to the forecast and issuance of warnings.

The flood was caused by the remnants of Tropical Storm Barry becoming embedded into a broad mid-level trough over central Texas. These remnant lows are typically slow-moving and drop heavy rain over a large geographical area where the troposphere destabilizes.

This particular one stayed quasi- (fairly) stationary, and caused massive flooding along the Guadalupe River, something that has happened many times before. In 1987, a flash flood on the same river killed 10 teenage campers from the Pot O Gold Christian Camp, with another 33 swept away who survived.

Camp Mystic is built on a floodplain. It is on sediment that has been deposited by hundreds, if not thousands of floods over the last millennium.

The event has nothing to do with climate change.

If you read/hear the things leftists say about this country and its history, it's hard not to get the impression that the 4th never meant anything to them in the first place.

As to the hurricane forecasts, I will make the same one NOAA has for 30 years since global warming has been the big scam.

NOAA prediction: This will be the worst hurricane season ever. More storms than ever and more deaths than ever!

REALITY: This hurricane season had at or below number of storms with fewer cat 4 & 5 storms than average.

And the bill still passed.
