One of the woodlands at the back of my house has a path that brings you out into a nature reserve with a glorious pond. Full of dragon fly, butterflies and plentiful bees. The reeds and the Lilly pads sitting gentle in the water. 😊

In a disaster like the one in Texas, FEMA typically deploys hundreds of people; by Monday evening, the embattled agency had reportedly sent only 86, in part owing to cost-cutting processes put in place by Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security.

If the Supreme Court agrees with the 8th Circuit’s ruling, it could end voters and private groups’ ability to file Section 2 lawsuits, leaving only the U.S. Department of Justice with power to enforce one of the most important protections in federal civil rights law.

CNN is reporting the FEMA response was delayed 3 days because of Noem’s cost controls, and FEMA officials were “taken aback” by how limited the agency’s response was.

I keep thinking about how Gov Abbott had plenty of funds to fly and bus migrants all across the country but couldn't come up with a million for a flood warning system.

Ted Cruz cut $200M in funding for NOAA weather forecasting before deadly Texas floods.
“More than 600 employees have exited the NWS amid a Trump administration push to shrink the government workforce, leaving many offices short-staffed of meteorologists and other support workers.”

Sen. Ted Cruz stripped weather forecasting funds from Trump's megabill. Then the floods came.
Among other things, he removed $150 million slated to improve modeling, predictions, and public communications.
