It’s been five days since floods in Texas killed at least 111 people and FEMA’s Acting Administrator David Richardson still hasn’t made a single public or internal statement.

The framing of Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill by Republicans is a scam. Look closer!
The no-tax-on-tips and overtime is temporary, but the tax cuts for billionaires are permanent. Also, you’ll have to itemize your taxes instead of taking the standard deduction.
They’re hoping you don’t realize that.

Q: There are reports where a fire dept commander asked a Kerr County sheriff dispatcher for a code red to be issued but they said they couldn't without a supervisor approving it. Almost 6 hours passes. How do you account for that lapse of time?

Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.

Jasmine Crockett lays it out plain and simple:
When you can’t afford food or Christmas or keep your small business open, just know it’s not just Trump. It’s the Republicans in Congress letting it happen.
They’re not innocent. They’re all complicit.
