Thanks John. I love your comedy chops but this needed to be said with brutal honesty and seriousness.

It’s ironic that they have tried to fund a warning system. They asked for a million from the state to fund it. The state said no. And we have a huge ‘rainy day’ fund they won’t use.

Read today that the area REFUSED the Flood Warning Funds twice recently.

$$$$ in Texas from D.C. under Obama and then Joe Biden, ready to spend.

Once again, thanks for cogency when my own impulse is just to scream, cry. I'd like to say I'm praying for little #$ Mikey Johnson and he won't like the Goddess who shows up. May she have a moment for skulking Miller too.

Unbelievable (and yet entirely believable) and so perfectly well written.

Maga is a destroyer and the democratic side couldn’t protect us. I’m hopeful for Mamdani and the folks that may emerge in a similar call to serve. I’m hopeful for a younger generation to take over. Thanks for writing about this with such clarity. It’s so incredibly painful, just to read. The reality is sickening.

To add insult to injury the county refused an Obama administration grant to install early warning systems in the county because he was a Democrat. Everyone in the south should be terrified of what is coming in hurricane season.

Personally, I don’t think the size of a government matters—it’s about whether it truly protects people’s rights and puts voters’ interests first.

Excellent article! I feel like the party of evil has taken over our country. Thoughts and prayers just won't do what needs to be done.
