Noem delays FEMA flood response (including search & rescue) in Texas by three days:
cnn.com/2025/07/09/politics/fe…
Noem is using that slow response as an excuse to cut FEMA:
thehill.com/homenews/administr…
This is what the administration does — defunds orgs, blames them for it, justifies to end or privatize them.
Looks like a lot of incompetence from Texas officials may have resulted in many / most deaths:
nytimes.com/2025/07/10/us/texa…
Because they don’t learn lessons:

And Noem purged FEMA call centers the day after the flood while otherwise dodging accountability:

Trump’s DOGE Cuts Are a Texas-Sized Disaster
Reckless agency layoffs and the dismantling of federal relief programs could leave the Lone Star State in peril.Henry D. Jacoby (The Texas Observer)
If the sun shines upon the sky, what can soak the darkness that cloaks the world in despair, for all the hope each day holds, nothing but misery and turmoil reign, for if the rains fall, why do they not cleanse the world of its pain, for as the stars all glow through out the heavens, not a single one offers hope to a desolate and indifferent world, for existence its self is a game of time in where the clock runs out before it even begins, for the desperation of life is nothing short of a hellish journey in this void;

L'immagine mostra una vista panoramica di un paesaggio naturale. In primo piano, si vedono alberi verdi che si estendono verso il basso, con rami spogli che si protendono verso il centro dell'immagine. Al centro, un lago di acque blu intenso si snoda attraverso un paesaggio collinare ricoperto di vegetazione. Le colline sono coperte da una fitta foresta, con alcuni edifici e campi visibili lungo la riva del lago. Un sentiero serpeggia attraverso i campi, collegando le case sparse. Il cielo è di un azzurro intenso, con poche nuvole sparse e il sole che splende, creando un'atmosfera serena e luminosa.

L'immagine mostra una vista panoramica di un lago circondato da colline verdi e rigogliose. Il lago, con le sue acque cristalline di un blu intenso, è situato in una valle naturale, creando un contrasto vivido con il cielo azzurro e le nuvole bianche sparse. Sul lato destro dell'immagine, si erge un piccolo villaggio con edifici tradizionali, probabilmente di pietra, che si arrampicano sulla collina. La vegetazione è fitta e varia, con alberi e arbusti che coprono le pendici delle colline, conferendo un senso di tranquillità e bellezza naturale. La luce del sole illumina la scena, accentuando i colori e creando un'atmosfera serena e idilliaca.

The image is a cartoon depicting a scene with three characters. In the foreground, a man with blonde hair is reclining in a lawn chair, wearing a light blue shirt and blue shorts, with a bottle of beer beside him. He appears relaxed and is looking towards the camera. Behind him, two women are sitting on a green mat on the grass, each with a glass of wine. One woman is wearing a white top and red shorts, while the other is in a black and white patterned dress. They are both looking at the man. The background features a yellow caravan with a striped awning, suggesting a camping or leisure setting. Above the scene, there is text in Dutch: "MONDGEUR SPEELT KLEINEREROL IN LANGDURIGE RELATIES," which translates to "Mouth plays a smaller role in long-term relationships." Below the scene, there is a speech bubble with the text "Inmiddels eigenlijk meer DAT ie nog ademt 😂😮," which translates to "In the meantime, actually more THAT he is still alive 😂😮." The timestamp "16:13" and a checkmark are also present, indicating the time the message was sent.

Noem Pushes to Eliminate FEMA as Agency Struggles to Respond to Deadly Texas Floods

"“Most” of the names of student protesters Immigration and Customs Enforcement was asked to investigate earlier this year were plucked from a pro-Israel website that aims to blacklist pro-Palestinian students and academics, an agency official told a federal court Wednesday.
The testimony from Peter Hatch, a senior official in ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations, came during the third day in a trial in Boston over the Trump administration’s so-called ideological deportation policy, which a group of university professors say has chilled their protected political speech.
Hatch said during questioning from a lawyer for the professors that in early March he was given a list of names of students for his agency to investigate and that “most” of those names came from the website Canary Mission, but also from other places.
The list was produced by a Department of Homeland Security team created in March to gather reports on people involved in student protests to submit to the State Department."

"In selling law enforcement agencies bulk access to such sensitive information, these airlines—through their data broker—are putting their own profits over travelers' privacy. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently detailed its own purchase of personal data from ARC. In the current climate, this can have a detrimental impact on people’s lives.
Movement unrestricted by governments is a hallmark of a free society. In our current moment, when the federal government is threatening legal consequences based on people’s national, religious, and political affiliations, having air travel in and out of the United States tracked by any ARC customer is a recipe for state retribution.
Sadly, data brokers are doing even broader harm to our privacy. Sensitive location data is harvested from smartphones and sold to cops, internet backbone data is sold to federal counterintelligence agencies, and utility databases containing phone, water, and electricity records are shared with ICE officers."
