After the Kerr Flood, Chief Kidd gave one of the most unprofessional disaster responses I’ve seen.

Thanks to MAGA/DOGE cuts, the Austin/San Antonio NWS is now 22% understaffed—and vital upper-air data that improves rainfall forecasts by ~30% has been slashed.

So Chief Kidd, you’re living the consequences of what you voted for. Sadly, your residents are too.

Conflicting officials, social posts leave evacuation delay questions in Kerr County flooding

In a late morning press conference, after confirming multiple flood-related fatalities, Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly claimed officials “didn’t know this flood was coming.”

“This is the most dangerous river valley in the United States, and we deal with floods on a regular basis – when it rains, we get water,” Kelly said. “We had no reason to believe this was going to be anything like what has happened here, none whatsoever.”



In a separate press event later Friday, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Texas Division of Emergency Management Region 6 Assistant Chief Jay Hall “personally contacted the judges and mayors in that area and notified them all of potential flooding.”

Yesterday morning, the message was sent,” Patrick said. “It is up to the local counties and mayors under the law to evacuate if they feel a need. That information was passed along.”

Ok so if the floods in Texas are because of weather manipulation, who are they blaming? Trump is in office and Republicans hold every leadership position in government. Texas is about as Republican as it gets. So how exactly are you going to blame this on anyone else?

Also fwiw shes running for congress in Georgia's first congressional district. She's fringe enough that even they probably won't touch her, but the district voted straight democrat until the early 90's and has been straight republican since then so I got an idea of what voters are like there.

Kids are dead. I know one of them. You did t post the Red Cross link. You didn’t post what you can yoo do to help you made it political. You post shit faster than you can confirm it all the time and a whole lot you post turns out to be bullshit. You are part of the problem.

You are all that is wrong with country and there is a whole lot on both sides. Just know you are as wrong on your side as the worst of the other is on theirs.

I hope the best for you in a world that you literally look for only the worst.
