President Trump, who I've tabbed Pablum, eviscerated a reporter for asking about warning delays/omissions contributing to the monstrous death toll from the July 4th Guadalupe River flood.
The two local Kerr County officials responsible for issuing warnings have been out of sight and are yet to detail the actions they took that early morning. One is the County Judge and the other the County Emergency Management Coordinator. These officials are accountable to the public.
Pablum responded in a similar dismissive/critical manner to a reporter who asked about the Jeffrey Epstein case being wrapped up in a bow.
The "Just Us" Department issued the Epstein memo on July 6th, so it clearly isn't old news as Pablum asserted.
No child sex predator had been charged in conjunction with over 1,000 child victims of Jeffrey Epstein, despite gobs of video evidence.
It's not clear the protection of little girls is a priority for the President.
Update 7-13-25: Congressman Reuben Gallego said Trump II was interested in accountability. Sorry, that does not fly, especially after he called that reporter "evil" for asking about lack of or too late warnings from local officials.. People reported:
Kerr County officials did not use the Integrated Public Alert & Warning System (IPAWS) — a notification tool that uses vibrations and emits a loud alert noise — even after a National Weather Service (NWS) meteorologist warned them about the severity of the floods.Kerr County officials did use the CodeRED system to issue warnings but many residents did not receive those or they came too late. Local Kerr County officials are yet to release any information about their actions as the deadly flooding developed.
Update 7-14-25: Kerr County Commissioners Court met yesterday and said not a word about warnings to residents and visitors prior to arrival of massive flash flooding. The emergency manager did not speak during public comment or during the business portion of the meeting. My guess is he was the focus of the Executive Session for his actions/inaction and the potential liability facing Kerr County for their failure to follow their emergency plan and issue warnings in a timely manner.
