      From reporter Kelby Vera:

      Some of the country’s most powerful Republicans are getting blasted for their limp response to the deadly floods which ravaged Texas on Friday.

      Asked what Congress is doing to help disaster victims during “Fox News Sunday,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said, “In a moment like this, we feel just as helpless as everyone else does … all we know to do at this moment is pray.”

      „Thoughts and prayers.“

      The incredible irony is, there’s literally answers to all those prayers right within reach. Buuuut, they involve doing things that will make the NRA and oil executives unhappy. So, we can’t have those.

      Like every mass shooting… it works every time with no consequences for them, so why change?

      I’m surprised that kids died and Republicans gave thoughts and prayers. Wait, no I’m not. They should be forced to watch the videos of the cabins floating away.

      This jesus guy has a good gig.

      Jesus doesn’t answer your prayers.. he has other plans.

      Jesus does answer your prayers.. he is a savior

      The guy can’t lose.

      30 kids and counting on their hands. MAGA politics killed dozens of little girls

    13. TrashBeerPod on

      This doesn’t even make sense. Theyre praying that God does what? Undo the natural disaster that struck? Are they questioning God’s infalliblity???

      Man, I really feel that this might be and should be the tipping point for people and thoughts and prayers.

      At one point in time, I did at least genuinely believe that a lot of the people with those responses did indeed put some thought into the matter. I no longer think that that is the case and that it is just an automated response.

      Even if that’s your whole thing like hey, there’s nothing I can do. But I offer you my genuine emotions and sympathy and condolences. Then at least say that cuz thoughts and prayers are this point are worse then just shutting the fuck up

      That image reads like a list of men who support the Hand Maidens Tale society the hardest.

      And you just KNOW they all need hairplugs.

      So…status quo. Has Cruz fled Texas and blamed it on his children yet?

    17. Negative_Gravitas on

      „We got nothin‘. Or rather, *you* got nothin‘. Yeah you used to have some stuff, and now it’s gone, and maybe your kids are, too. So alright, how about this:, we’re going to go ahead and pray for you.

      „And you better show some Goddamn appreciation by voting for us or next time you don’t even get the prayers!“

    18. blackmobius on

      Thoughts, prayers, tax cut, blame dems, maga loves you, rinse and repeat

    20. PapasauruaRex on

      If sandy hook didnt move them, this wont.

      They do not care about you or your kids. They mock Christianity and profit off it.

    21. Apprehensive-Ad9523 on

      They have lots of new plans to fuck over more Texans. Think of all the ways to do it and profit from it.

      The only thing dumber than „thoughts and prayers“ is legislation to prevent weather control but you’d have to be an idiot to propose such a…

      *** tap on the shoulder and whispers in the ear ***

      Oh crap…

    24. williamgman on

      They offered only prayers on this… Because thoughts make their heads hurt.

      >The flooding that overwhelmed Texas’ Guadalupe River on Friday and stranded members of an all-girls Christian camp is proving to be worse than a 1987 disaster triggered by a near-identical deluge that drowned 10 teenagers attending a church camp.

      After 38 years and the introduction of the information age, they’ve tried nothing and are all out of ideas.

    29. mankowonameru on

      Who needs FEMA when we have an endless supply of thoughts and prayers?

    30. Uberslaughter on

      Shame these people likely voted for Trump to gut the NWS and NOAA at the federal level and for Republicans at the state level to strip any sort of emergency notification system.

      And before the “act of God” comments, Texas can send a statewide alert out immediately after a cop gets injured.

    31. jelloshooter1027 on

      They have the fucking Texas National Guard down there supporting ICE. The utter stupidity of this administration blows my mind.

    32. AceMcLoud27 on

      What if god answered those prayers decades ago by sending engineers and climate scientists?

    33. pfroo40 on

      They are too busy blaming Democrats for somehow controlling the weather with voodoo and „chemtrails“ instead of accepting human-caused climate change as scientific fact.
