After voting to pass President Donald Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' last week, Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has turned her focus to something more pressing: Chemtrails.
Greene will introduce a bill soon on the House floor that will prohibit "the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity," she said Saturday on X, formerly Twitter.
Chemtrails are a widely debunked conspiracy theory that claims the water condensation left behind from planes is the government trying to alter weather or release chemicals that are poisoning the population.

Why did the area where Texas flooding took place not have any warning systems in place? Get a load of these Kerr County Commissioners meeting minutes from 2016:
Kerr County Commissioner's Meeting Minutes. June 27, 2016.
Selected quotes:
COMMISSIONER BALDWIN: "You know we had a baby flood a couple weeks ago, a month or so, whatever it was." "The thought of our beautiful Kerr County having these damn sirens going off in the middle of night, I'm going to have to start drinking again to put up with y'all."
COMMISSIONER MOSER: "And I think the first thing to do is say why change anything. It worked this long and maybe we don't need to do a thing. And then it gets into the thing we talk about earlier today, and that's risk mitigation. And you know there's still people drowned and you know --"
COMMISSIONER BALDWIN: "And I hope you ask the question like who are we notifying, or who are we trying to get the message to? Are they these crazy people from Houston that build homes right down on the water?"

The Texas Legislature voted down a bill to fund improvements to Emergency Management just last month.

Trump only took over from Radical Left Joe Biden less than six months ago. New technology and systems take a while, especially in government. This is why we need to give the people the right to reelect Donald J Trump in 2028!

"The White House and Republican Sen. Ted Cruz defended the National Weather Service and accused some Democrats of playing politics in the wake of devastating floods in Texas.
"I think this is not a time for partisan finger-pointing and attacks," Cruz said at a news conference with local officials in Kerr County on Monday morning.
Unfortunately, in the wake of this once in a generation natural disaster, we have seen many falsehoods pushed by Democrats such as Senator Chuck Schumer and some members of the media," Leavitt said. "Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie, and it serves no purpose during this time of national mourning."

Trump politicizing disasters in Blue states:
Trump I
"During his first term, Donald Trump did blame blue state officials when they faced natural disasters.
Examples:
California Wildfires: He blamed the fires on "gross mismanagement" by California officials, threatening to withhold federal payments. California officials disputed this claim, noting that many fires occurred in suburban areas and a large portion of forest land is federally controlled.
Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria: He got into a public argument with San Juan Mayor Carmen Yuln Cruz.
Threats of Aid Withdrawal: He threatened to withhold disaster aid funding from California due to perceived mismanagement of wildfires and even linked funding to voter identification laws."
Trump II
"Donald Trump, then the president-elect, publicly blamed California's governor, Gavin Newsom, for the Los Angeles fires earlier in 2025:
He accused Newsom of prioritizing environmental policies over public safety, including efforts to protect the Delta smelt fish, causing water shortages that hampered firefighting efforts.
Trump claimed Newsom "refused to sign a water restoration declaration" that would have allowed water to flow to affected areas. However, California officials stated no such document existed.
He called for Newsom's resignation and suggested attaching conditions to federal aid related to water and forest management.
Trump also claimed FEMA lacked the funds to respond, which was disputed by FEMA and public officials.
Newsom and other officials pushed back against these claims, stating that water availability for firefighting was not affected by environmental policies related to the smelt fish.
They pointed out that the municipal water system was overwhelmed by the scale of the fires and extreme winds, not a lack of water resources."

*MAGA sure like to dish it out but they are whiny little b@itches when it comes to taking it.

Not surprising. Texas is a red state. Might be a different story if the flooding happened in California or Vermont.
Why isnt Trump withholding federal emergency funds until Texas shows that it can do a better job preventing floods?
We need some sort of stupidity to be said, akin to raking the forests.
Like, Texans need to better store their rain in reservoirs, or channel it in rivers. Tidy up their riverbanks and stop letting it just go wherever. Terrible water management.
Incompetence in red Texas for a hundred years.

MAGA!
If you want to conflate, let's get the facts straight.
California has more than 7x the amount of wildfires than the entire USA has flash floods.
7500 vs 1000.
Sadly, you're just not very educated or informed.
Let me help educate you.
TEXAS LEADS THE NATION IN FLOOD RELATED DEATHS BY A SIGNIFICANT MARGIN.
Between 1959 and 2019, at least 1,069 people died in floods across the state.
A large share of those fatalities occurred in the Texas Hill Country, a region grimly nicknamed "Flash Flood Alley" for good reason.
Is it because they believe in freedom, don't believe in liberal regulations that would have long ago prevented camps from being placed in known flash flood plains?
Hmmmm.

Dems finally got my dad, a lifelong partisan republican, to see Trump as a bad actor with the Jan 6 hearings. Those were successful.
But he's looked to other way since the impact of that story-telling faded, and he's accepted Trump II because his tax the rich policies are favorable.
When I point out to him the real stats on global warming, he no longer denies it but shrugs and says mankind will engineer our way out of this. The leading theory of how to do so? MTG is onto something here!!!

Like Trump, he's purely "transactional" and everything comes down to MONEY.
He only cares about the financial cost of Wildfires vs Floods.
He clearly couldn't care less about the LOSS OF LIFE.
He clearly makes that point clear.

Absolutely.
As a 4th generation Californian, I think that the Federal Govt should withhold emergency funds to Texas until they prove that they can do a better job preventing flooding.
MAGA!
If you want to conflate, let's get the facts straight.
California has more than 7x the amount of wildfires than the entire USA has flash floods.
7500 vs 1000.
For the kids sitting waaaaaaaaaay in the back.
For the kids sitting waaaaaaaaaay in the back,
California experienced major fires, many of which caused catastrophic damage much worse than these floods, in the following years:
2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025.
Umm are we not discussing Texas ?
You are correct, sir, but baby in the waaaaaay back wags conflated the California wildfire situation with the Texas floods. He tragically fails to realize that the economic damage of the fires, which is what the federal government often pays, is significantly higher than the economic damage of the flash floods, even if they are technically deadlier.
baby wags was just up to his usual conflation.
Typical of an old demented man.
Typical defer and deflect that follows the infantile logic of a Trumper.
Like Trump, he's purely "transactional" and everything comes down to MONEY.
He only cares about the financial cost of Wildfires vs Floods.
He clearly couldn't care less about the LOSS OF LIFE.
He clearly makes that point clear.
Don't make demented assumptions. My argument sticks to Federal funding, which is the scope of our discussion.
Rumor has it Trump is adding up and earmarking all the tax receipts coming from California and New York and stuffing those in the Texas FEMA fund, to be doled out by his son Eric and some bimbo he met last weekend in a hotel elevator, which was conveniently, not mysteriously, put into inoperability for 15 minutes between the 3rd and 4th floors. By Donald, that is, not Eric.
…There will be no official accounting of the distributions.
