  1. I don't think it can be parsed that fine. This is thread for the July 4 floods, period. There was a press conference. It was a circle jerk. People are angry that they aren't getting information. It's not "CR" to be angry about a lack of information due to grandstanding politicians. There is no way to split hairs between threads to that degree. No way.
  2. First kiss my ass. Most of the piss flows another way.
  3. Before she even spoke you could tell she was PISSED.
  4. Let me say something about the CR accusations: I don't think any clear-minded individual would watch these dicksticks on parade and think "yep, those are some real leaders right there, yessir", regardless of party/persuasion. These people are not only grandstanding they are getting in the way of information flow which is beyond vital at this point. Maybe Ann Richards pulled similar stunts, I don't remember. Shame on her if she did. This shit should transcend politics, but somehow commenting on it is "political" when it's just factual.
  5. After last night's @InkaUtexas posting shitshow the last thing he/she/they should be doing is telling people how to post.
  6. Well, they did say they were trying to identify those 5 deceased, so i would think if they were part of the group they were searching for that could have been done pretty quickly. I suspect they're just some of the additional fatalities (tourists, etc.).
  7. So was NWS fully robust on Jan 21 2021 and it fell apart by Jan 21 2025? Is that what I'm hearing?
  8. Kristi is blaming the National Weather Service.
  9. Still 27 (allegedly)
  10. They may actually not address the real situation. I think they're about to shut this down.
  11. Earlier I mentioned I thought this was going to be brutal, and I think it's about to be.
  12. Judge is basically saying we're moved from rescue to recovery.
  13. Chip Roy wants us to pray. Drink!
  14. Chip Roy invoking Robert Earl Keen. That has a lot to do with shit.
  15. Cornyn leading off with the Trump blowjob. Well done, John, you simp.
  16. They're going to send in more fixed-wing aircraft along with helicopters to help find victims. Might have done that yesterday you feckless hacks.
  17. Jesus Christ stop talking about Trump you fucking sycophants. This is an utterly worthless, information-free presser so far.
  18. He seriously is. Gotta kiss that ass.
  19. Abbott is starting out with the tiresome trope about how locals are somehow more driven to help each other than people anywhere else on the planet. Parts of New Mexico are fairly immune to natural disaster. Well, except aliens.
  20. Just announced on CBS Austin.
  21. Bettie Cross thinks people just need to get insurance adjusters out there. Uh, a whole lot of rural folks self insure. Beyond that, I would be surprised if typical homeowners insurance would cover an event like this. @C-Man can weigh in there. Federal flood insurance is insanely expensive now. I don't think insurance is gonna make much of a dent.
  22. Oh good. Kristi Noem is about to speak. She surely has new, detailed information to offer. Just put the locals on and stop with this performative grandstanding by state and federal officials.
  23. . . . and her daughter's (nick?)name is "Tiny". Fuck me running.
  24. I think the 2 PM press conference is going to be brutal. I sure hope I'm wrong.
