REPORT: America is drowning in catastrophic floods, and evidence suggests these “natural disasters” may not be so natural after all.

This thread represents my first thought:

When it rains hard, anywhere, blame whoever is president.

---

Truth. Much like what I've said about the economy...the sitting President owns it

---

Unfortunately, whoever is President has no control over the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

---

Of course. Just like they have no control over the rain. But a political reality is that if it happens on your watch you own it (as the President)

---

But the Texas State Legislature had control over House Bill 13 which would have funded Air Sirens being installed in rural areas of the state. They voted it down.

TEXAS and KERR COUNTY HAS BLOOD ON ITS HANDS.

Yeah - to me this is a state/local failure. I don't want to drive too far down the rabbit hole of libertarian vs. big government also I am also not a big fan of monday morning QB'ing from afar but it seems....

1) Camps should have an emergency evac plan filed with the locals and have a clear understanding of what they are going to do. In the Hilll Country that would seem to entail flash floods (and maybe tornados?) But in California it absolutely should be for wildfires.....\

FOR EXAMPLE (see, lets be proactive) does the City of Berkeley's summer camp and does the Lair of the Bear have plans in place to get people out? The main issue from my time at both is that buses are not on standby. So what is the plan because you are going to need to use mass transit in an evac instead of clogging roads.

2) Texas should never allow homes/cabins in a flash flood flood plain. Some finger pointing that FEMA maps are not well suited for flash flooding. I am OK with that since it isn't a universal national problem. But the state absolutely has the resources to add to the FEMA mapping and then apply land use standards through their state building code.

FOR CALIFORNIA the analogy would be whether we are good right now with campers in mudslide areas. Since the state's dep of geology does a good job mapping I assume that we have standards in place but if not, we should.

"Highly trained swift water rescue teams" were requested by the state in last week before the floods. But Chief Joel G. Baker denied both requests, the union said, calling it "a dereliction of duty," the Austin Firefighters Association said.

"...Firefighters union president Bob Nicks said Austin "had the best boat crews in the state, if not the nation." "

""We explicitly trained with San Antonio for response to the Hill Country because it's in our backyard," Nicks said. "So we have the resources, we have the training, we have the personnel. We are absolutely geared to doing in that area of work." "

OK. I am going go appeal to santity since there is more to this story.

1) Austin is fighting with the state for an 800K reimbursement which the state hasn't paid for prior mutual aid.
2) So far the main reporting on this supposed request (7/2) is from the union that is in a bitter dispute with him. Trust but verify. Snark moment here - perhaps you have never worked around municipal government. Unions doing this in contract season is VERY much par for the course if they are not getting their way. I have no doubt if they got their demanded raise this would not be news
3) Austin DID send mutual aid (almost 100 miles away) on the 4th. I think there is a solid argument to be made given the uncertainty about the storm and the risk of flash flooding in Travis County to keep the guys home
4) This happens (denial of mutual aid) _ALL THE TIME_ in California during wildfire season as agencies don't want to be caught short. A classic example of how this became a problem was during the San Diego Cedar fire when crews had been deployed to Riverside COunty. Santa Ana wind events have a very predictable pattern of moving in intensity from North to South. So when the winds kicked up 48 hours after deployment several SD crews were not in place. Not clear it would have made difference but it has resulted in less mutual aid ever since by many departments around the state. They send what they can but are conservative.

There is mutual, coordinated aid, especially during historic, life-threatening events. Municipal departments are supposed to train for this It's all hands on deck.

There appears to be a pattern here.

- DEI, connected pilot doesn't listen to male superior
- DEI fire chiefs don't pre-deploy units per SOP in LA, don't keep earlier crew on the clock, etc. Rookie mistakes
- DEI, overpaid, unqualified DWP head doesn't fill primary reservoir
- DEI Fire Captain doesn't deploy A Team during torrential rains, over 159 dead

I'm curious to know how DEI prevented a FLOOD WARNING SYSTEM from being approved by the Texas state legislature.
A state with a budget surplus.

Incompetent managers, DEI, ???

Influence via fashion.

First Lady sporting Texas Flood chic apparel. Apparently the wearing of a MAGA or Gulf of America hat isn't in the contract. Are those green low top Chuck Taylor's?

Looks like this is her wardrobe for going "off-road".
I'm sure she will be debuting a new fashion line soon.

There was a Roundtable "discussion" held after Trump's tour and everyone was praising and blowing him for such a great "response" to the tragedy, including Dr. Phil.

The national media was largely absent.

Then, he defended Kristi Noem and her "response" with the following statement when someone asked about how FEMA's response was delayed because Noem has to sign-off and authorize any federal grant more than $100,000






"I don't know anything about it. We were right on time. We were there," Trump said.

"In fact, she was the first one I saw on television. She was there right from the beginning, and she would not have needed anything. She had the right to do it, but she was literally the first person I saw on television."

THAT FOLKS IS YOUR REALITY TV PRESIDENT

Heard that Trump Jr hooked Dr. Phil up with a pair of official gold-plated Trump knee pads at a discount, signed by Trump himself.

The best sword swallowing ever!

In fact, people said that it was never seen before BLOWING in the history of our country.

You know the photo has to be staged. Who would put a real M249 into that tw@t's hands? She would kill someone faster than that 9 year old with the Uzi at the rifle range in 'Zona.
