Prayers don’t help saving lives! Change your Gouverneur!
The look on the mayor’s face when he’s asked why there weren’t modern flood alert systems in place says it all really.
Texas Governor ought to resign immediately over his lack of accountability
This is a crime of humanity. Are we going to let hundreds of people swept away every week when there is heavy rain???
Thoughts and prayers without remedial action are worthless and totally hypocritical.
