If Biden were still President during this flood, the Republican Party (and most of the media and a lot of other people for that matter) would be nonstop screaming about how it’s a Democrat’s fault and saying where is FEMA or blaming a Cabinet member and they would never stop so fuck off, Ted Cruz.

It is also a local government issue to warn people about weather disasters so additionally fuck off, Kristi Noem and a last fuck off to anyone going on about “act of god.”

I don’t believe in one anyway, but if I did, an act of god should be funding government services and having services that warn people about evacuation in deadly weather. You’re an asshole if you think an act of god includes kid drowning.

And Texas won’t spend the money on a siren warning system, because it is the work of the nanny state.

Better to die free, needlessly.

I swear to Dog that the Lone Star is their Yelp review.

Texas lawmakers failed to pass a bill to improve local disaster warning systems this year

A GOP state lawmaker who represents Kerr County says he likely would vote differently now on House Bill 13, which would have established a grant program for counties to build new emergency communication infrastructure.
