A Texas official said “there wasn’t a lot of time” to alert camps of the flood risk. But AccuWeather’s chief meteorologist said warnings gave “plenty of time to evacuate people to higher ground.” “The question is, Why did that not happen?” he said. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social

Maybe this is why they've been hiding the head of FEMA for a week.
A zoom in from Kabas' photo showing what Richardson looks like: a be-ringed middle aged dude with heavy features and greased-back hair in a polka dot shirt open to the middle of his portly chest, with some kind of low-cut leotard beneath and a chain around his neck that might be holding a badge but looks like jewelry.

I am really glad—truly—that more outlets are covering FEMA’s unacceptable response in Texas. But for my original reporting to receive ZERO acknowledgement (especially when I know many of these outlets originally declined to cover this story) is simply maddening. I would literally never do that.

Man, y'all gotta read this whole piece about a rally in San Antonio yesterday. Texas Democrats — led by big names — are organizing and moving away from DC and the DNC. And they're getting wild, cheering crowds.
Because, for once, we didn’t see Democrats scrambling for DNC approval. We didn’t hear the usual consultant-tested nonsense about reaching across the aisle or “finding common ground” with fascists. What we saw was a group of Texas Democrats standing together in array, not in chaos. We saw alignment. Intention. Clarity of purpose.

They weren’t kissing rings in Washington. They were telling Washington, “We’re not you.”
