"On December 14, 2012, a mass shooting occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, United States. The perpetrator, 20-year-old Adam Lanza, shot and killed 26 people. The victims were 20 children between six and seven years old, and 6 adult staff members. "

Now, no FEMA. Oh wait. It’s a red state with obeisant Abbott in charge. NWS did their job with what resources they had. Passing the blame on to them by our state officials, when they bear responsibility is reprehensible. Remember Uvalde?

Remember the ice storm when Cruz ran to Cancun? Abbott, Rs here deregulate because FREEDOM! We get these weather events. Why no state regulations, emergency training, effective warning systems? Cell phones were out. Why no county people warning people beforehand? Climate deniers, yes. Drought yes.

It’s a good thing trump gutted FEMA and NOAA. Just wait until the wildfires get out of hand. I don’t think other countries are going to be too keen on helping this time.

My heart is with the families who have lost or missing a loved one! 💔 Pleas take the time to support these broken-hearted families. That should be our top priority. Now is not the time to lay blame. We all know where to point the finger when the time is appropriate! May the Felon rot in living hell!

* Jesus will provide. No need for science, no need for costly national weather service. Dead-Letter-literal-interpretation of the Bible, Christian evangelical fundamentalist know best. Put your faith in Jesus, “everyone will die”. Lord and savior Trump knows best. Texas is God’s country.

From Dear Leader: “Many people are telling me, SIR, hardly any of the girls were hot blondes. So in that sense, we’re very fortunate. It could’ve been much worse. But I do blame the Chinamen for their climate change hoax. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!”

Here's what's going to happen... NOAA will get more resources, like the FDA did when they realized they fucked up that agency regarding Bird Flu. It will happen with each agency we counted on to keep us safe, but only AFTER Americans are killed. Counter-Terrorism is going to be a doozy.

And the national weather service under the Trump regime withheld valuable weather radar information from Texas officials. They were told to Guadalupe would rise 7 feet, 20 minutes after it hit 7 feet. It was a 29 feet. This is dictatorial abuse of power and negligent homicide.

I can't imagine sending my kid off to camp not knowing this was going on, or having to learn that they're washing-away in a no-warnings-given flood. This is horrific, made even worse when you know no one's going to "save them".

Project 2025 at work In only one day... Today Floods in Texas sweep away 23 children at a girls camp. 24 people dead, millions in damages Donald Trump runs away to play golf These people, the Trump administration is silent 'we all die'

But that science is under attack, seeing deep cuts from the Trump administration, which fired hundreds of employees at NOAA, FEMA and the National Institute of Standards and Technology — key government agencies that advance climate science. www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/07/...

Camp Mystic co-owner and director Richard “Dick” Eastland has been confirmed dead. He died trying to heroically rescue some of his campers before they were swept away in the deadly Texas floodwaters. #FuckTrump #TexasFlooding #FuckMAGA #ImpeachTheMotherFucker @washingtonpost.com

All I know is that you can't blame any of this on Donald Trump. He has an alibi, he was golfing when all of this was happening. Not enough of an emergency to send the National Guard. But they were deployed to protect ice agents that are deporting and separating migrant families. (A real emergency).

Oh yeah, dunking on budget cuts is super helpful in a time when there was a 24ft water rise in a river. Go give blood or do something useful; like volunteering at a kitchen. Grow up

Well, I mean we can do things about gun control. It involves humans acting with agency. We’re talking about a freak storm. Yeah it’s the result of climate change. But acting like a tough guy behind a keyboard isn’t helping. Be helpful, not a heel. Give blood. Be nice.

Yes, it is DEFINITELY too early to talk about the policy decisions that led to this. Just like it’s always too early to talk about policy when a bunch of kids in Uvalde Texas get shot. Lol, we found the Greg Abbott simp.

I’m waiting with bated breath for when it’s “politically OK” to quite literally point out that this administration is aiding in DEATH with its budget cuts. And it’s going to get substantially worse. But yeah, God forbid it’s reported….

Politics doesn’t enter into this. Solidarity and mutual aide exist. Stop acting like this is political to point out that you’re not being helpful. Pretending to have empathy, when it’s just a reflexive performance via a qwerty key isn’t helpful Give blood. Be nice.

You’re a vile person. Truly not nice at all. Please go out and talk to a therapist if you think this is even remotely appropriate. There’s dozens of dead people that were trying to enjoy a holiday weekend. And you want to laugh at them.

You can do both. The destruction of NOAA/ National Weather Service played right into this and it could happen again, tomorrow. Texas needs to let the Red Government know they screwed up. Red votes against the basic needs of their constituents. Keep the pressure on these GOP politicians.

We will see more of this since we got rid of the department that tracks these disasters and gave all the money that would've been used to help rebuild to Florida for a concentration camp

Just a reminder, part of Project 2025 is getting rid of the National Weather Sevice and pushing folks to for-profit Accuweather. Right on cue, they’re bragging that THEIR customers had ample notice of the flooding.
