As Texas grapples with the aftermath of deadly floods, a heated debate has erupted regarding the adequacy of weather forecasts and government staffing during the crisis. Critics are questioning the impact of budget cuts to federal agencies, including the National Weather Service, on flood preparedness. While some accuse former President Trump of undermining essential services that could have mitigated the disaster, others argue that the attribution of blame is politically motivated. In the midst of rising death tolls and urgent calls for investigations, voices on both sides are seeking to clarify accountability and enhance future disaster response efforts. Experts warn that extreme weather events, like the recent flooding, may become more frequent as climate change continues to challenge existing infrastructure and response strategies.
