I like your post and agree with it.

I'm sorry for all the pain you and the amazing people of your state are going through, but there is a reason this didn't happen more often and that's because national funding of weather watchers and scientist helped monitor it.

Someone robbed government funding to give tax breaks to the rich... but you are absolutely right, it was not one person... but it was one group and their was a clear leader of that group.

Cutting life saving resources for the people is going to lead to some of life, especially as they adjust to the new norm. It's fact of life.

Also, people might say we shouldn't be playing the blame game... but Trump quote literally blamed Biden for this, which Biden had absolutely nothing to do with the cuts. So if Trump can lie and blame people, then people should be able to be honest and say it was their cuts that lead to a lack of resources for them to be aware.

Which just to be clear, people could of died anyways, but most likely would of been less people as the response would of been faster.

@sstronaut People that voted trump were somehow convinced that his policies would not hurt them.

I wonder how many trump supporters cheered when Elon waved around that chainsaw.

@HiFiRaver

Of course I do. You had to counter your side's grotesque behavior anyway possible.

Says everything about you that that's more important to you than dead children

That’s horrible.

I’m no fan of Trump or Ted Cruz, but I couldn’t believe the hatred on social media for Cruz being away on vacation when he couldn’t have done anything to prevent the disaster or change any outcomes.

Those poor young girls and their families. 😢😢

It’s really sick what the left is doing. Stoking divide while our communities are coming together to support and help each other. If we would’ve gone after Biden when Hurricane Beryl hit Texas or Helene hit North Carolina we would’ve been placed on watch lists and labeled as domestic terrorists. Bless you Kate for what you are doing for your friend in this time if tragedy ❤

@JesseInTX I hope your friend’s daughter is found soon. It’s so heartbreaking. 💔
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
Oh goodness, I'm so sorry for your friends, their families and what is presumably your own grief.

While the losses are horrific I do think some facts are still important ....
She added: “I just do think those comments are depraved and despicable, especially when so many Americans are mourning the loss of their children.”

Less than 24 hours before Leavitt’s comments, though, it was her boss, Trump, who was levying blame – not on the incumbent government, but the previous one.

“If you look at that water situation, that was really the Biden setup,” Trump said.
@Convivial But now it is all Rump, all the time. He cannot blame anything from the past on anyone else.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@JamesBugman but he did...I don't either the Dems or Trump should be blaming anyone... Yet he did

Agree with you completely.

I totally agree; no matter what side you are on, you should never play politics with the children and tragedy, especially when it is both

People are messed up, sorry to hear this. Prayers for you all

The flood is no man's fault. Man does not control the weather.
What may have happened is God was punishing Texas for voting republican.

I’ve watched her and her husband cry. I’ve watched them completely zone out.

If this had happened in a blue state and someone posted that, you MAGAts would be making jokes about "lib tears".

I am guessing though the couple leans democrat, because trump supporters are incapable of emotions.

@Punches God punishing Texas? Get over yourself.
Prayers for your friends, all of the victims and the families suffering loss of loved ones through this tragedy. 🙏

I hate the media. There is a cliche' for them that says....."If it bleeds it leads."

They don't give a damn about you or me. Only their ratings and their professional growth.

There are still 150 or so people missing and their families are still traumatized. And the best they can do is cast dispersions.

BTW, I live in the Dallas area.

I think it's very truthful, and I'm so sorry about what happen🙏🙏🙏
I understand this camp had a no tech policy so nobody could tell them the flood was coming. That to me is the real issue here, some kooks running a camp for girls and some of them die.
Horrible no matter how you look at it.
Nothing to do with that horrible child running your government though.

The left blaming Trump for an "act of god" is reprehensible, they should all have their fingers and jaws broken, then we'll have true silence from them.
