A pediatrician in Texas ignited outrage with a social media rant over deadly flooding and ended up being suspended from her practice.
In a now-deleted social media post, Dr. Christina B. Propst set herself up for intense criticism after suggesting that supporters of President Donald Trump should “get what they voted for.”
The pediatrician was eviscerated for the remarks that went viral in the wake of the devastating floods that ripped through Texas, leaving at least 80 people dead and dozens missing, including young girls from a summer camp.

“May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry,” the doctor’s post read, as seen in screenshots shared on X that showed her Facebook username, Chris Tina.
“Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts,” the post read.
The popular Libs of TikTok account on X asked, “Hi @BlueFishMD, any comment???”
Blue Fish Pediatrics soon issued a message that was featured at the top of its website, noting the “individual is no longer employed” by the pediatric group, while a full statement noted she was placed on “administrative leave.”
The head of the Texas Medical Board, Dr. Sherif Zaafran, also responded to a post on X, saying, “There is no place for politicization.”
“The entire focus needs to be on looking for survivors. Any complaints we may receive will be thoroughly investigated,” he added, sharing a screenshot of the statement from Blue Fish Pediatrics.
Thank you for alerting us to this. I was made aware of this earlier. This is the response of her employer attached on here. There is no place for politicization.

“We are aware that a personal social media comment by one of our physicians has caused significant hurt and outrage,” Propst’s former employer’s message read.
“The content and timing of that post do not reflect the values, standards, or mission of Blue Fish Pediatrics. We want to be clear: we do not support or condone any statement that politicizes tragedy, diminishes human dignity, or fails to clearly uphold compassion for every child and family, regardless of background or beliefs,” the statement continued.
“In moments of crisis, we believe in unity over division, healing over judgment, and humility over rhetoric. We are taking this matter seriously, reviewing it internally, and have placed the physician on administrative leave,” the pediatric group noted. “In the meantime, we extend our full support to the families and the surrounding communities who are grieving, recovering, and searching for hope.”
