Republican deluge

 

When you tell the truth, Republicans become enraged, and vicious. Adam Zyglis drew a cartoon depicting reality, and the consequences of Republican propaganda, and rule.  He, and his family have been threatened, and office holding Republicans are in an uproar. That bubble quote, is from Ronnie Reagan. He is the point when and where America started to go downhill. Reaganistas begat the busheviks, the busheviks begat the trumpsters. Ronnie had dementia, and far sooner than people would like to admit. gwbjr & Don-the-Con were rich, stupid, and spoiled children, who got away with everything. They were failures, who were constantly protected from consequences. After each idiot regime America was a worse place. All three regimes tried to control the message given to Americans, the rest of the world never believed the lies.

 

Guadalupe has flooded Kerr County in the past: 1869, 1900, 1932, 1936, 1959, 1978, 1987, 2002. The floods would happen, but preparation could have reduced casualties, and damage; but that was not good for business and the party. Do not build in flood plains, the government has accurate maps. 

 

Climate change has altered the weather, and the consequences are increased intensity of phenomena. But climate change is not a subject that the oil industry,  moneyed interests, and the Republican Party allow to be discussed. Scientific study and evidence is either ignored, or attacked. Those who engage in such activities, and honest reporting of such are vilified, threatened, and have their jobs disappear. Trump wants FEMA* to disappear, gwbjr. & #rump put idiots in charge.

 

There are government agencies that do work to help. They are attacked, especially by the current federal regime. Texas government does so likewise. Texas government has been an affront to humanity for three decades. There is no delay in having money to put razor wire in the Rio Grande, but money for warning sirens (when available) is not used. We know the bad actors in this, but they have power, so they are not allowed to be shown up, and they are eager to attack.

 

Then their crocodile tears hypocrisy immediately appear. "It is not the time to politicise the tragedy", after they have long, and continuously politicised the grounds and environments that cause tragedies. "Thoughts & prayers" they call for.  Adequate preventative action was needed, and future action is needed. How many thoughts and prayers fit in the back of a hearse?   — Ω ☨
