Critics link Texas flood devastation to Trump-era cuts and climate policies

President Donald Trump’s critics have not lost time to blame the national weather service (NWS) for death and widespread destruction caused by the floods in Texas, a reaction called the White House “shameful and disgusting.”

At least 59 people, including 21 children, were confirmed from sudden floods along the Guadalpe River, which started on Friday. Eleven children and consultants are still missing from a summer camp for girls near the river, which was flooded with water due to the remains of the tropical storm Barry. That storm achieved a landing on Mexico, but it sparked huge unexpected thunderstorms on parts of Texas.

“It took only 9 days for Trump discounts to [National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] To kill dozens of children in Texas when the tropical storm Barry landed this week, “Grant Stern, CEO of Occupy Democrats, wrote on X.

“The people’s voice in Texas in favor of government services controlled by Donald Trump and Greg Abbott,” added Ron Philipkovsky, a former federal prosecutor and editor -in -chief of Mediastountnews. “This is exactly what they get (such).”

“What happened to girls in Mestic camp is exactly what is one of the best meteorology experts in the country, and warned against happening,” added Rachel Peticofer, Assistant Director at the Wid Center at the University of Christopher Nioport, General Policy. “Trump’s discounts on NOAA and NWS have critically affected storms at the country level.”

On Saturday, the Minister of Internal Security Christie Nayyim held a press conference, and confessed to some criticisms related to the flood notification systems in the country, which included fears that the weather forecast was reduced by the amount of rain that eventually fell.

Naim noticed that the Trump administration “is currently upgrading” the flood notification technique in the country, which she described as “old”.

[what] We suffered through [Hurricane] HarveyWith the same type of system that could not be predicted in the way that its reaction was the way it stopped here and was delivered unprecedented amounts of rain that caused the event of such a flood. “

Tom Fahi, Legislative Director of the National Weather Service Organization, told NBC News that weather prediction offices were equipped with an adequate employee, and “issued predictions and warnings at the appropriate time that led to the storm,” but added that the non -full leadership positions were “clearly concerned.”

“The reason is that Trump calmed the national weather service that led to the death of all these girls in Texas flooding, because the 2025 project believes that weather was linked to evidence of climate change,” musician Mikel Juliet wrote on X.

Isaia Martin, the Democratic candidate for the eighteenth congress region in Texas, called for an immediate investigation into the Congress in “The Republic, Dog, Discounts to NOAA and national weather service.”

Martin wrote on X. “We have seen the effects (such) this week.

Washington’s democratic governor Jay Engeli did not directly blame the Trump approach to climate change for deaths, but he suggested that the president’s efforts to decrease green energy financing is a factor in increasing catastrophic natural disasters, such as the end of this week in Texas.

“It is difficult to make the Texas -Texas flood tragedy worse, except for the knowledge that on the same day, Trump fell on solar energy and wind energy that is vital in the battle against climate change, which makes these heavy rains frequent.”

During an interview with CNN, Representative Joaquin Castro, D-TEXAS added that it is not believed to have open leadership positions, if full, can help prevent these strategies.

“I do not think it is useful that there are major employees of missing national weather service who are not in their place to help prevent these tragedies,” said Castro.

White House spokesman Abeel Jackson described it as “shameful and disgusting” to see that in the wake of this tragedy people politicize what happened.

Jackson said: “It is a shameful and disgusting order that in the wake of the tragedy, the first instinct is lying and politicizing a catastrophe to target their political opponents. False claims about NWS have been exposed repeatedly by meteorologists, experts and other public reports.” “NWS did, until a flood monitoring was released more than 12 hours ago. The Trump administration is grateful to the first respondents who spread at work to save the lives of hundreds during this disaster, and will continue to help the great state of Texas in their efforts to recover.”
