Foreign as the absolute tragedy of what's going on in Texas, the death of children and others because they were not properly warned due to Trump's cuts to funding. Elon Musk and Trump have a stake and responsibility in this. We see the incompetence and the cruelty of the Trump administration. And first and foremost when it comes to cruelty and incompetence and absolute just ugliness is Ted Cruz who was able to vote against funding that would have helped Texan. He was able to vote against that before his Grecian holiday, but he did race back. And let's see this the Guardian reports before his Grecian holiday, Cruz ensured a reduction in funding to the N O A efforts to improve future weather forecasting of events that caused the sort of extreme floods that are being worse worsened by the human caused climate crisis. And Ted Cruz, he went right in there and he voted against that because Trump wanted him to and because Project 2025 demanded it. It's part of the problem. And these deaths in Texas, we don't know that they would have still occurred in such mass numbers. But we do know that history shows us that accurate forecasts and prevention and alerting people and warning them that helps save lives. But they don't want to do that because it costs money. And of course during the Biden administration, North Carolina floods, Florida flights, they had nonstop saying FEMA is not going to help you. Biden's doing this, Biden's doing that. And he was going door to door to try to find ways to help people and provide for the needs of people. But that's not happening anymore because Kristi Noem, who shot her dog is in charge of FEMA now. And so they're no longer going door too. And this is what we're getting from Texas regarding Kristy gnomes heading up the rescue efforts in Texas cabas. According to sources within fema, barely any staff have been deployed. Acting FEMA administrator David Richardson is nowhere to be found. If this is how they are going to do a major hurricane response, people are. And then there's an article from the Hand Basket that says FEMA response to deadly Texas floods delayed and deficient. With no in charge we would have hundreds of people on scene in FEMA jackets. Regis registering people for assistance. Regional coordination center fully activated. National at least partially activated. A current FEMA employee whose identity is to be protected for fear of reprisal told the Hand Basket setting up disaster recovery centers with federal partners. We've had our search and rescue there already. We would have mission assigned other agencies, like the U.S. army Corps to clear debris and establish power. But none of that is happening. None of that aid is being rendered. None of those people are being helped because the Trump administration is incompetent. Kristi Noem is incompetent. And what Kristi Noem is doing while this is going on is running around on Fox News tooting your own horn and posting pictures, asking for crowdsource input on which should be her gubernatorial portrait for South Dakota governor. And here they are. Here are the choices. Official governor's portrait. Number one. It's got her on a horse looking off into the distance. Now, mind you, people have died. Go to number two. Iceman is number three. It shows her with a darker hair, also looking off and posing on a horse with other horses in the background. And then Ms. Blondie, where she's on a blonde horse riding a horse, looking straight ahead because she's such a fierce cowgirl. And I'm just like, is she that tone deaf? Is she that tone deaf that she doesn't realize that what she needs to be doing is activating the proper responses to help people in Texas. And then I remember she shot her family dog, Cricket, because he wasn't doing what she wanted. So naturally, tone deaf is the least of her bad character defects. And just the narcissism, crowdsourcing input on which portrait you should have, that just tells me you think all of the portraits are so good, you want everybody to see him. I mean, it's gross. And then we move on to what's going on in California with ice. As we've reported many times, ICE has been deployed where they have created a situation, and now they're going in to try to fix it for a show of strength. And we pontificate that at some point they want to declare martial law so that they can stop the midterm elections. But you have plain clothes ICE agents, and it's important to remember they are in plain clothes with masks, not identifying themselves. This is what was going on yesterday in California. She has studied authoritarianism her entire career. She says, this is the autocratic playbook unfolding in my hometown. Trump is sending thousands of federal agents to storm empty LA parks. Pure political theater to stoke fear in cities that oppose him. A waste of taxpayer money, and a deeply disturbing scene in any functioning democracy. And if you are listening, you will see that ICE agents are coming in full tactical gear on horseback and on foot. And I presume they want to round up migrants now, not criminals, because they're not going after criminals. They're going after anybody with brown skin who may have an accent because they are doing this because they're cruel and racist. And then they're sending them to, you know, alligator, Alcatraz or El Salvador. They're not providing any due process to these people. And up to 80 to 85% of these people have no violent criminal history. It is so disturbing to watch what is going on. Listener, please support our show by supporting our sponsors.

Grace, what's happening in MacArthur Park? What theater on the six month anniversary after all of these fires? That's the message from the polluted heart of the President United States. The polluted heart of Stephen Miller. Those National Guard men and women that were out there protecting people are now being used as political pawns out there on horsebacks, running through soccer fields in the middle of the day, timed around announcements and events like this says everything you and I need to know about the state of mind of the President United States in this administration. So to those that feel torn asunder by everything that's happened over the course of the last six months, notably highlighted and reinforced last six weeks and over the course of the last 60 minutes and day like today, I want folks to know we have your back. And we'll continue to come back and do what we can to protect our diverse communities, to protect the spirit that defines the best of this city and our state, and to push back against this cruelty, to push back against this cruelty that is being perpetuated by the President of the United States.

It's the abject cruelty that these MAGA triple trumpers, that's what they like. They thought it was fine that Kristi Noem shot her dog. That was not disqualifying in their minds because they hate what Kristi Noem hates, which is black and brown people. These people have been so programmed and propagandized that they have made immigrants lower than humans. In their mind, they're willing to send human beings without due process who are not criminals, tear them away from their families and send them to possibly get eaten by alligators or go to a concentration camp in El Salvador and they're selling merch. They're giddy about it because they like the cruelty, because they made these people less than human. In their mind, they are dehumanizing people. And speaking of political theater, there is nothing that goes together like political theater. Kristi Noem and evangelical far right Christianity. So the Department of Homeland Security posted this video on directly on their social media. I'm going to play it for you here and I just want look for the star of the video, which of course would be none other than Christina. Now, verse I think about sometimes, many times we're seeing helicopter. It goes, oh, here's Christy, she's in the helicopter all dolled up with her full tactical, sooner lay consumer. I said, here am, I, send me. So they're glamorizing, going after humans as the, as if they are less than human. And the Trump administration has spent and is spending more on ICE agents and detention centers than they are on providing affordable housing for American citizens. This is not about policy. This is about hate. It's about cruelty. And Kristi Noem is the perfect person to oversee this because if she gets to dress in costume, it's all she's all in. And killing a puppy, that's child's play for her. So when you see what is going on in the United States of America and you are not outraged and you are not morally hurt by it, that tells me that you like the cruelty. You like the hypocrisy of being, oh, I'm such a big Christian, I want to feed the sick and help the poor but really what you want to do is dehumanize people because you think you're better than them. And it is gross. And people's lives may have been spared if these pathetic MAGA Republicans had voted to fund protections for American citizens, but they don't because Project 2025 doesn't want them to. And then that way they can completely make the oligarchs more money and spend money on ICE agents and detention centers instead of helping the American people. That's all we have for now.
