There is no evidence that government cuts caused the flooding disaster in Texas.

“I don't think there's any evidence that the Doge cuts had had any connection to what happened here.”

The administration's delayed response to the Texas floods highlights a failure in governance and neglect of federal emergency protocols.

“the fact that there was, you know, 72 hours before there was search and rescue is also um a part of this extraordinary tragedy.”

The personnel and budget cuts implemented by the Trump administration at the National Weather Service likely compromised the effectiveness of the flood response and contributed to the loss of life.

“you can't help but ask did the cuts to the National Weather Service these local offices these vacancies these individuals who had longtime expertise in this community longtime relationships in this community could those people have made a difference here”

The questions regarding whether budget cuts at the National Weather Service impacted the response to the Texas floods are valid and reasonable.

“The quote MSM isn't lying. They're doing their job by asking completely valid and crucial questions since the admin has proposed zeroing out essentially all NOAA research in the 2026 budget and aspired to take in buyouts of hundreds of NWS employees in recent months.”
