WWW.FOXNEWS.COMTrump spending cuts, his approach to climate change attacked as catalyst of catastrophic Texas floodingCritics of President Donald Trump wasted no time blaming staffing cuts at the National Weather Service (NWS) for the widespread death and destruction caused by the floods in Texas, a reaction the White House called "shameful and disgusting."At least 59 people, including 21 children, have been confirmed dead from the flash floods along the Guadalupe River that began Friday. Eleven children and one counselor remain missing from a girls' summer camp near the river, which flooded due to the remnants of Tropical Storm Barry. That storm made landfall over Mexico, but triggered massive unexpected thunderstorms over parts of Texas."It only took 9 days for Trump's cuts to the [National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] to kill dozens of children in Texas when Tropical Storm Barry landed this week," Grant Stern, the executive editor of Occupy Democrats, wrote on X.TEXAS FLOOD SURVIVORS SHARE HARROWING STORIES, SEARCH CONTINUES FOR THOSE STILL MISSING"The people in Texas voted for government services controlled by Donald Trump and Greg Abbott," added Ron Filipkowski, former federal prosecutor and the editor-in-chief of MediasTouchNews. "That is exactly what they (sic) getting.""What has happened to the girls at Camp Mystic is EXACTLY what one of the country's best meteorologists, John Morales, warned would happen," added Rachel Bitecofer, assistant director at Christopher Newport University's Wason Center for Public Policy. "Trump's cuts to the NOAA & NWS have critically impacted storm prediction nationwide."Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem held a press conference Saturday, and acknowledged some of the criticisms regarding the nation's flood notification systems, which included concerns that weather forecasts underestimated the amount of rain that ultimately fell.Noem noted that the Trump administration is "currently upgrading" the nation's flood notification technology, which she described as "ancient."DEADLY TEXAS FLOOD EXPOSES NEGLECTED WEATHER ALERT SYSTEM TRUMP AIMS TO MODERNIZE"When the [weather] system came over the area, it stalled," Noem said during the press conference. "It was much more water, much like [what] we experienced during [Hurricane] Harvey, with the same type of system that was unpredictable in the way that it reacted in the way that it stopped right here and dumped unprecedented amounts of rain that caused a flooding event like this."Tom Fahy, legislative director for the National Weather Service Employees Organization, told NBC News that weather forecasting offices were adequately staffed, and "they issued timely forecasts and warnings leading up to the storm," but he added that unfilled leadership positions were "clearly a concern.""The reason Trump defunded the National Weather Service leading to the deaths of all those girls in the Texas flood is because PROJECT 2025 THOUGHT WEATHER PREDICTION SCIENCE WAS TIED TO EVIDENCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE," musician Mikel Jollett wrote on X.WHITE HOUSE INSISTS FEMA IS TAKING HURRICANE SEASON 'SERIOUSLY,' BLASTS 'SLOPPY' REPORTINGIsaiah Martin, a Democratic candidate for Texas's 18th Congressional District, called for an immediate congressional investigation into "the Republican DOGE cuts to NOAA and the National Weather Service.""We saw the affects (sic) this weekend," Martin wrote on X. "Trump defunded these agencies and we DEMAND answers. There MUST be *swift* accountability!"Washington Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee did not directly blame Trump's approach to climate change for the deaths, but he suggested the president's efforts to peel back green energy funding are a contributing factor to increased catastrophic natural disasters, like this weekend's flood in Texas."It is hard to make the Texas flood tragedy worse, except to know that on the same day Trump signed a bill cratering solar and wind energy that is vital in the battle against the climate change making these torrential rains more frequent," Inslee wrote on X this weekend.During an interview with CNN, Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, added that he didn't think it was helpful to have open leadership positions that, if filled, could "help prevent these strategies.""I dont think its helpful to have missing key personnel from the National Weather Service not in place to help prevent these tragedies," Castro said, adding "we have to figure out in the future how we make sure that it doesnt happen again."White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson called it "shameful and disgusting" to see that in the wake of this tragedy people are politicizing what took place."Its shameful and disgusting that in the wake of tragedy, the lefts first instinct is to lie and politicize a disaster to target their political opponents. False claims about the NWS have been repeatedly debunked by meteorologists, experts, and other public reporting," Jackson said. "The NWS did their job, even issuing a flood watch more than 12 hours in advance. The Trump Administration is grateful to the first responders who sprung into action to save hundreds lives during this catastrophe, and will continue to help the great state of Texas in their recovery efforts."0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 9 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMRace against time: How Congress barely made July 4 deadline on 'big, beautiful bill'Football and basketball coaches are experts in clock management.So are lawmakers.Coaches are adept at either burning or saving just enough time on the clock to execute a play or prevent the other team from doing so.Congressional clock management is very different.TRUMP $3.3T MEGABILL SETS HOUSE RECORD FOR LONGEST VOTE IN HISTORYWhatever lawmakers say they will do it will always take them a profoundly longer period of time in which to do it.Thats why the temporal politics of passing President Donald Trumps "big, beautiful bill" overwhelmed everyone who works on Capitol Hill over the past few weeks.That ranges from the lawmakers themselves to the aides, journalists, Capitol custodians and U.S. Capitol Police officers.To wit:Congressional Republicans have churned through variations of frameworks and iterations of the big, beautiful bill since February. But things finally got serious when the House adopted its formal version of the package on May 22, beating the Memorial Day goal by four days.There was chatter that the Senate would tackle the Houses package the week of June 9. Then that fell to the week of June 15. The idea was that the Senate would process its version of the bill that week and then allow the House to sync up during the week of June 22.Then those hopes were dashed.Thats to say nothing of the Senate at least voting to proceed to even start debate at the very end of the week of June 15.Heres what really happened. And it underscores just how protracted the process can be on Capitol Hill, especially with a very complicated and controversial piece of legislation.On Monday, June 23, Republican senators talked about taking a procedural vote to launch debate on the big, beautiful bill as early as Wednesday or Thursday, June 25 or 26. Such a vote would require just 51 yeas. But the bill wasnt ready. Republicans were still crafting and drafting the bill to comport with Senate budget rules. The GOP also aimed to write the legislation in a fashion to court 51 yeas to crack the procedural hurdle and formally start debate.Midweek came and the Senate never took a procedural vote. Sens. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., opposed starting debate on a bill that was not complete.So midweek morphed into the weekend, and when the Senate convened on Saturday, June 28, Fox News was told the chamber would take a procedural vote to begin debatearound 4 p.m.ET.SENATE REPUBLICANS RAM TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' THROUGH KEY TEST VOTEWell, you guessed it.The Senate did not trigger that voteuntil 7:31 p.m. Saturday. And the 15-minute vote turned into a three-hour and 38-minute affair. The Senate closed the voteat 11:09 p.m.Saturday with Vice President JD Vance nearby in case his services were necessary to break a tie.They were not.At least not on the dais.But Vance played a pivotal role in negotiating with Johnson, Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., and others to greenlight the Senate starting on the bill.However, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., then compelled Senate clerks to read the entire 940-page bill out loud from the dais. That enterprise consumed just under 16 hours of floor time. The clerks their voices cracking and hoarse concluded a few minutes after3 p.m. on Sunday. This marked the first time a senator required the clerks to verbally read a bill before the Senate since 2021.So, once the clerks concluded their oratory, it was believed that the Senate might go all night with its marathon voting session known as a "vote-a-rama" and try to finish the bill sometime by dawn Monday.But this is Congress time.Senators didnt even begin the vote-a-ramauntil 9:40 am Monday. Twelve hours later, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., suggested it was time to "start figuring out" a final group of amendments that were necessary to conclude the bill.Some groaned at that notion. One senator told Fox News that 12 hours later was a little late in the game to "start figuring out" something of that magnitude.The Senate then toiled throughout thenight Mondayand into Tuesday. Thune and the GOP leadership finally cut a deal with Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, on rural hospitals to marshal her vote. The Senate approved the bill lateTuesday morningafter an all-night session. Vance was back to break the tie in what is called a "Van Halen" vote. The tally was 50-50 since three GOP senators defected. But Vances vote in favor made the roll call "51-50."For those who are uninitiated in the Van Halen discography, "5150" was Van Halens first album with new lead singer Sammy Hagar, supplanting David Lee Roth. It went to No. 1 on the Billboard charts.Then, it was on to the House.HOUSE ADVANCES TRUMP'S MASSIVE AGENDA BILL AFTER FREEDOM CAUCUS CAVESThe House Rules Committee serves as a gateway for legislation to head to the floor. It convened a meeting earlyTuesday afternoon. The Senate would soon send its revamped version of the big, beautiful bill across the Capitol Dome for the House to align. The Rules Committee then proceeded to meetuntil around 1 a.m. Wednesday, prepping the bill for the floor.That meant the House could vote by lateWednesday afternoon.But there was a problem.House GOP leaders discovered what they termed a "technical error" in the rule. The entire House must first approve the rule before debating legislation on the floor. So the House needed to vote on the fix first. That vote started earlyWednesday afternoon and continued for another seven hours and 31 minutes. That established a record for the longest roll call vote in House history, topping a vote of seven hours and 21 minutes in 2021.Some Republicans werent at the Capitol. But they held the vote open to buy time to work on skeptical GOP members who may be holdouts.Andaround 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., decided to double-dog dare anyone who was against the bill to put their voting card where their mouth was. Republican leaders closed the "technical correction" vote and proceeded to a vote on the "rule." If the House adopted the rule, it could formally debate the bill. The House was stuck if its members failed to approve the rule.The tally board behind the dais in the House chamber populated relatively quickly. All 216 Democrats said no There were also four GOP no votes and several who refused to vote yes. Republicans could only lose three votes and still pass the rule. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., was a yes on the rule even though he opposed the bill. He then switched to no as the vote dragged on. However, Massie ultimately supported the rule in the end.HAKEEM JEFFRIES BREAKS KEVIN MCCARTHY RECORD WHILE STALLING TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL'Reps. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., Keith Self, R-Texas, Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., and Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., were no votes throughout the vote. Butaround 1 a.m., there was movement. The holdouts and some of those who voted no met with Johnson and other GOP leaders. That seemed to pry loose the votes of the holdouts and opponents except Fitzpatrick.But there was a problem.Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa. who had not voted drove home to Pennsylvania. So everyone at the Capitol patiently waited for Perry to return. He didaround 3:30 a.m. Thursday. Everyone but Fitzpatrick voted as a bloc in favor of the rule. The House had the votes to begin debate on the rule.It looked as though the House might vote around daybreak on the actual bill itself.But the office of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., had told Fox News on Wednesday that Jeffries intended to speak for an hour or so at the end of debate. Theres a custom in the House where top leaders of both parties are yielded "a minute" to speak on the floor. But this is a "magic minute." As a courtesy to those leaders, they speak as long as they want.Jeffries began speaking just before5 a.m. Thursday and finally concluded eight hours and 45 minutes later just after1:30 p.m.ET Thursday. Jeffries shattered the mark of eight hours and 32 minutes established by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., in 2021. McCarthy set the record as minority leader.So those House members hoping to hop an early morning flight and get home for July 4 would have to wait.Mike Johnson didnt speak nearly as long as Jeffries. But he did observe that the late President Ronald Reagan once said that no speech should run longer than 20 minutes.Johnson spoke for 23 minutes.And then the House voted, finally passing the bill 218-214at 2:31 p.m. Thursday. Fitzpatrick and Massie were the only GOP noes.It is said that we never have enough time in life. And if you work on Capitol Hill, youll probably have even less thanks to congressional clock management.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 3 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMIran at 'decision point' after Trump strikes on nuclear program, says US NATO ambassadorU.S. Ambassador to NATO Matt Whitaker argued Iran is at a "decision point" following its war with Israel and U.S. airstrikes on its nuclear program all while U.S. officials remain on high alert for sleeper cell concerns.Whitaker urged Iran to seek peace during "Sunday Morning Futures," while noting that the U.S. is still dealing with the implications of an open border and the national security implications of it from the Biden administration."It's obviously a very dangerous world, Jason," Whitaker told Fox News' Jason Chaffetz on Sunday. "I think President Trump, as a peacemaker, has made it safer, but at the same time, we're still dealing with a lot of the consequences of four years of Joe Biden, including a porous border, where not only did we have, as Tom Homan points out, over 1,200 Iranian nationals that came into our country that we know of, but you had over a million known gotaways that we have no idea who they are, where they went, and that's a real challenge."BORDER PATROL ANNOUNCES 'PHENOMENAL' TURNAROUND AS NUMBER OF MONTHLY MIGRANT RELEASES DROPS TO ZERO"But, at the same time, you know, President Trump has been very clear about his policy towards Iran, that they cannot have a nuclear weapon," he added. "And they're at a decision point. They should move forward and seek peace."Over 1,500 Iranian nationals who illegally entered the U.S. at the southern border were arrested during the Biden administration, and nearly 50% of them were released back into the country, according to a senior U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) source last month.More specifically, Border Patrol agents arrested 1,504 Iranian nationals from fiscal year 2021 through fiscal year 2024. Of the 1,504 individuals who were arrested, 729 were released into the United States.Meanwhile, just hours after Trump addressed the nation about U.S. military strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, DHS released a new memo sounding the alarm on a "heightened threat environment in the United States."The bulletin from the National Terrorism Advisory System did not cite any specific threats but comes as Iranian officials have threatened retaliation.BORDER CZAR TOM HOMAN REVEALS UNPRECEDENTED SUCCESS IN TRUMP'S BORDER STRATEGY"It is our duty to keep the nation safe and informed, especially during times of conflict," the Department of Homeland Security said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "The ongoing Israel-Iran conflict brings the possibility of increased threat to the homeland in the form of possible cyberattacks, acts of violence, and antisemitic hate crimes."Whitaker argued the growing threat of possible Iranian sleeper cell activity in the United States puts tremendous pressure on law enforcement to be right "100 percent of the time.""Iran should come to the table and should sue for peace, and should make a peace deal with the United States, with Israel, and just say, No more. We want to be in the world where people seek prosperity and a bright future for their citizens,'" he said."So, Jason right now, this puts a lot of pressure on our law enforcement, puts a lot of pressure on DOJ and the FBI to be right 100 percent of the time and seek out these sleeper cells and to make sure that they can't activate," he added.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 4 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMJewish group slams Democratic NYC mayoral hopeful over 'sick' mockery of 'sacred' traditionsA Jewish advocacy group is blasting Democratic New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani for sharing a video mocking Hanukkah Jewish traditions on social media.The organization, Stop Antisemitism, says Mamdani posted the "sick" video to his X account last year. The video is originally from the Geeta Brothers Duet Group, a satirical and comedic duo who dressed themselves in stereotypical Jewish garb for the performance."Zohran Mamdani posts Indian men cosplaying Jews, spinning dreidels and lighting the menorah," Stop Antisemitism wrote in a statement on X."Our holidays and traditions are sacred and not for your comedic pleasure, Zohran Mamdani this is sick," the group added, tagging the mayoral candidate.TOP DEMOCRATS, MEDIA DEMAND ZOHRAN MAMDANI CONDEMN 'GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA' PHRASEMamdani had posted the video in December 2024, adding the caption, "Happy 3rd night of Hanukkah from Astoria and Long Island City."The video originates from the 2015 parody album "Punjabi Christmas Album Hits" from the Geeta Brothers.Mamdani posted another video from the same album on Christmas Eve, this one based on "Jingle Bells.""Wishing you all a very merry Christmas from Astoria and Long Island City," he wrote at the time.Mamdani's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.Accusations of antisemitism have harried Mamdani's campaign from its outset. The self-proclaimed democratic socialist has refused multiple times to recognize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state, and he has supported the BDS movement against Israel."I believe Israel has a right to exist," he said during a mayoral primary debate in June."As a Jewish state?" the moderator pressed."As a state with equal rights," Mamdani said.He later elaborated on his opposition to Israel being a Jewish state in an interview with Fox 5."Im not comfortable supporting any state that has a hierarchy of citizenship on the basis of religion or anything else," he said.DAVE RUBIN WARNS JEWS TO 'GET THE HELL OUT' OF NYC IF MAMDANI BECOMES MAYORMamdani, a Muslim, has also faced criticism for refusing to condemn the phrase "globalize the intifada."StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez argued last week that electing Mamdani mayor would not only be "catastrophic" for Jewish residents, but all who reside in the city."If Zohran Mamdani was elected as mayor, it would be hands down catastrophic for Jewish residents of New York City," Rez told Fox News Digital. "And we would even take it a step further where citizens of New York City in general, due to his very troubling stances on socialism, would greatly suffer as well."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"I think individuals who are concerned that Zohran Mamdani is antisemitic have every single right to be concerned considering his past behavior," Rez added. "We can list dozens of examples of his past antisemitic adjacent and direct antisemitic actions."Fox News' Sophia Compton contributed to this report0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 5 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMNYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's professor father claimed Hitler inspired by Abraham LincolnNew York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's father, a longtime academic and Ivy League professor, said during a 2022 panel discussion about one of his many books that Adolf Hitler drew his inspiration for the Holocaust from Abraham Lincoln.The younger Mamdani, a self-proclaimed socialist, has credited his parents with providing him a "privileged upbringing," one that included frequent discussions on politics and global affairs, according to a New York Times profile on the mayoral candidate and his parents. Mamdani's mother is an Oscar-nominated filmmaker.During a 2022 panel discussion hosted by the Asia Society, Mamdani's father, Mahmood, asserted that America was the "genesis of what we call settler-colonialism" around the world.JONATHAN TURLEY: WHY NYC'S ZOHRAN MAMDANI LOOKS MORE AND MORE LIKE A HARDCORE MARXIST"With the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln generalized the solution of reservations, they herded American Indians into separate territories," Mamdani, Columbia's Herbert Lehman professor of government, said. "For the Nazis, this was the inspiration Hitler realized two things: one, that genocide is doable. It is possible to do genocide, that's what Hitler realized. Second thing Hitler realized, is that you don't have to have a common citizenship."The elder Mamdani also argued during the talk that the racist and antisemitic Nuremberg Laws of Nazi Germany "were patterned after American laws."Other comments included claims that there is no difference between "nationalism and colonialism" and that the Allied forces during World War II shared the same goals as the Nazis."The Nazi political project was shared by the Allies, and that political project was to turn Germany into a pure nation. A pure nation rid of its minorities," Mamdani said at the Asia Society event. "When the Allies defeated the Nazis and went into Eastern Europe, they began to create pure nations. To ethnically cleanse Eastern Europe of Germans move them back into Germany. One crime doesn't wipe out another."CITY-RUN GROCERY STORES, DEFUNDING POLICE, SAFE INJECTION SITES: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT NYC'S NEXT POTENTIAL MAYORFollowing the political upset in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary, critics began unearthing videos of the younger Mamdani espousing similarly radical views.One of those moments came from remarks the NYC mayoral candidate made at a Young Democratic Socialists of America conference in 2021, during which he told attendees not to compromise on goals like "seizing the means of production."A second included a video from The Gravel Institute, during which Mamdani discusses the need to turn housing from a private commodity to a public one. In the video, he called for luxury condos to be replaced with communal-style living that would include things like shared laundry facilities and food co-ops."If we want to end the housing crisis, the solution has to be moving toward the full de-commodification of housing," Mamdani urged in the video for The Gravel Institute.DEM MAYORAL CANDIDATE IN MAJOR AMERICAN CITY LINKED TO RABID ANTI-ISRAEL ACTIVISM: REPORTMeanwhile, other remarks by Mamdani's father have raised concerns about how the Democratic mayoral candidate's upbringing could impact his governing style.In an interview about his book, "Good Muslim, Bad Muslim: America, the Cold War, and the Roots of Terror," the older Mamdani asserts that the term "suicide bomber" is a misnomer because they are no different from "soldier[s] whose objective is to kill."Professor Mamdani has also reportedly argued that Israel is "the logical conclusion of Nazism," according to an excerpt of a study chronicling his academic arguments shared by the Washington Free Beacon.Fox News Digital reached out to both Professor Mamdani and his son for comment.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 5 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMNY Dem says he disagrees with Mamdani, makes comparison to TrumpRep. Tom Suozzi, D-N.Y., says he disagrees with Zohran Mamdani when it comes to his positions, but said his fellow Democrats could learn something from the democratic socialist something that reminds him of President Donald Trump."You have to recognize that he tapped into something," Suozzi said on CBS' "Face the Nation" on Sunday. "He tapped into the same thing that Donald Trump tapped into, which is that people are concerned that the economy is not working for them."The "democratic capitalist," as he describes himself, said in a Wall Street Journal op-ed last week that Mamdani's win in the democratic mayoral primary should be a "loud wake-up call for Democrats.""Too often, Democrats are not perceived as being focused on affordability and the economy and the middle class and people aspiring to the middle class and their economic concerns," Suozzi told Weijia Jiang, who was filling in for Margaret Brennan.MAMDANI'S PRIMARY WIN EXPOSES DEMOCRAT DIVIDE AS TOP LEADERS WITHHOLD ENDORSEMENTS"They see Democrats as being primarily focused on reproductive rights and on LGBT protections, which are important issues, but they're not the issues that people think about every night when they're lying in bed thinking about paying their bills or when they are talking about how they're going to send their kids to school," he continued.MAMDANI'S POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE ROCKS DEMOCRATS, DIVIDING PARTY ON PATH FORWARDWhile Suozzi does not believe Trump or Mamdani has the correct path forward when it comes to those issues, he said Democrats can learn to lean into root issues."Everybody in America, whether you're a right-wing conservative or a left-wing progressive, should believe that in return for working hard, you make enough money so you can live a good life," he said. "You can buy a home. You can educate your children. You could pay for your health insurance. You can retire one day without being scared. People don't feel that currently, and we have to do a better job of communicating that."0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 5 Views 0 Anteprima

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMCamp Mystic director dies while trying to save kids during Texas floodingThe camp director and co-owner of Camp Mystic in Hunt, Texas, died in the catastrophic flooding as he reportedly raced to save the lives of his young campers.Dick Eastland, who purchased the camp in 1974, died after the wall of water crashed through the Christian summer camp, which is located along the banks of the Guadalupe River, Texas Public Radio reported.The report cited a Facebook post from Eastlands nephew, though the post has since been taken down.Counselors, former campers and politicians who knew Eastland praised him for his heroic actions and ultimate sacrifice to save his campers.LIVE UPDATES: TEXAS FLOODS LEAVE DOZENS DEAD, MISSING AS CREWS SEARCH FOR SURVIVORS"Camp Mystics Dick Eastland no doubt gave his life attempting to save his campers," Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, wrote on X. "For decades he and his wife Tweety poured his life into loving and developing girls and women of character. Thank you Mr. Eastland. We love you and miss you."Pfluger said two of his daughters were at the camp when it was evacuated during the flooding, and they have since been reunited.Paige Sumner, a former camper and friend of Eastland, wrote in Kerrville Daily Times that Eastland "was the father figure to all of us" during summers at the camp."It doesnt surprise me at all that his last act of kindness and sacrifice was working to save the lives of campers," Sumner wrote. "He had already saved so many lives with the gift of Camp Mystic."TEXAS FAMILY HELPS RESCUE WOMAN CLINGING TO TREE AFTER BEING SWEPT 20 MILES DOWNRIVERKathatine Somerville, a camp counselor at Camp Mystics Cypress Lake location, told "Fox News Live" on Sunday that the camp director was among the "most selfless men in the whole world.""He was an inspiration to so, so many," she said. "He was a father figure, a comforting force in the uncertainty of everything. He guided us in our faith and our activities. He always told us to make new friends and to share our love with everyone."There were 750 attendees at the camp whenthe catastrophic flood happened.Over a dozen campers were confirmed dead as of Sunday afternoon, Kerr County officials said. One counselor and 11 campers remained unaccounted for.The death toll across Central Texas climbed to nearly 70 on Sunday.Kerr County Sheriff Larry Leitha told reporters during a news conference Sunday morning that of the 59 confirmed dead, there were 38 adults and 21 children.Authorities have reported four deaths in Travis County, three in Burnet and one in Kendall.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni 5 Views 0 Anteprima
