Democrats continue to show they will let no tragedy go to waste in an effort to attack Republicans and President Donald Trump.

The latest to disrespect victims of the deadly Texas flooding in order to jab at the president was former Barack Obama senior advisor, David Axelrod, who got taken to the woodshed for spreading false information about budget cuts.

Axelrod, who also served as Obama’s 2008 and 2012 presidential campaign strategist, shared a link to a New York Times story in a post on X about the “horrific tragedy in Texas.”

This horrific tragedy in Texas is a canary in coal mine.
Yes, there’s waste in government. But it also performs vital functions, like adequately forecasting storms and coordinating with local authorities in a timely way to deal with them.https://t.co/iTxAewyVT3 via @NYTimes

“This horrific tragedy in Texas is a canary in coal mine. Yes, there’s waste in government. But it also performs vital functions, like adequately forecasting storms and coordinating with local authorities in a timely way to deal with them,” Axelrod wrote.

The Times report declared in its headline, “As Floods Hit, Key Roles Were Vacant at Weather Service Offices in Texas.”

The paper and Axelrod were summarily schooled by users who delivered the actual facts.

To be clear Kerr county was under a flood watch and then flood warning as the tragedy unfolded.

Despite what leftist accounts will tell you. The funding to NOAA hasn’t been cut yet. NOAA budget cuts effective FY 2026, starting October 1, 2025, pending Congressional approval. pic.twitter.com/LWjEvMXVeK

The National Weather Service (NWS) office in San Antionio was extra staffed during the storms. A flood watch was issued 15 hours ahead of time, and a flash flood warning three hours before.

You are a hack.

“The National Weather Service sent out a series of flash flood warnings in the early hours Friday before issuing flash flood emergencies — a rare alert notifying of imminent danger,” the Associated Press reported.

“The National Weather Service office in New Braunfels, which delivers forecasts for Austin, San Antonio, and the surrounding areas, had extra staff on duty during the storms, Runyen said,” the outlet added, citing Jason Runyen, a meteorologist in the NWS office. “Where the office would typically have two forecasters on duty during clear weather, they had up to five on staff.”

Oh calm your tits. I’m shocked you got your nose out of Obama’s rear end to breathe this lie.

Axelrod came under heavy fire for his post in the wake of at least 80 deaths and dozens of people still missing, including many children from a summer camp that flood waters roared through.

please continue to dance on the bodies of dead children. i beg of you.

Live with that.

Another CNN ghoul exploiting a horrible tragedy by ignoring the fact warnings were provided hours in advance and the NWS in the area had more than double the staff on duty. Sickening. https://t.co/qn6x1IdE4i

Shut the fuck up, you demonic ghoul.

Now is not the time to politicize this tragedy.

The local National Weather Service (NWS) had 5 persons on duty the night and morning of the deluge (normally it would be only 2 persons) and the NWS gave accurate flood warnings in advance.
