Trump Calls Reporter “Evil” Over Texas Flood Warning Question, Defends FEMA Funding And Abbott

President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter during a Texas flood roundtable, calling the question about lack of early warnings “very evil.” Visiting Central Texas following massive flash floods that left over 100 dead, Trump praised FEMA and Governor Greg Abbott’s response team, pledging swift federal aid. The Texas “Flash Flood Alley” region suffered rapid water surges, catching communities unprepared. Trump claimed “fully funded within minutes” and commended responders. He reiterated that such rapid flooding was unprecedented, dismissing criticisms. Republican Rep. Chip Roy defended him, calling the question “ridiculous.” Trump also avoided answer on future FEMA role. With casualties including at least 27 campers in Kerr County, the event highlighted his administration's partnership with Texas officials. His remarks stirred controversy over leadership tone and disaster preparedness in face of growing climate disasters. #Trump #TexasFloods #FlashFloodAlley #TrumpVsReporter #FEMA #GregAbbott #CrisisResponse #TrumpSlamsReporter #TexasDisaster #FloodWarnings #Evacuation #TexasHillCountry #DisasterFunding #ClimateCrisis #TrumpRoundtable #FloodVictims #KerrCounty #MediaScrutiny #RepublicanDefense #FloodPreparedness ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

Trump Drops ‘Most Anticipated’ Files, Bondi Says ‘People Deserve Truth’ | Will MAGA Be Satisfied?

After weeks of mounting pressure, the National Archives has released thousands of previously hidden files on Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1968 assassination, following an executive order signed by Donald Trump. The release includes FBI memos, leads on James Earl Ray, and details of a possible wider plot. King’s family urges context, warning against weaponizing his legacy. Attorney Pam Bondi says Americans “deserve to know the truth,” while MAGA supporters debate whether this transparency goes far enough—especially amid calls to declassify Epstein-related documents. #EpsteinFiles #Trump #MAGA #MLKFiles #Declassified #PoliticalScandal #HiddenTruths #DeepState #GovernmentSecrets #MediaStorm #USPolitics #TrumpNews #RightWing #ConspiracyFiles #BreakingNews #TruthRevealed #CorruptionExposed #SecretFiles #PowerAndPolitics #AmericanHistory #MAGA2025 #TrumpMovement #CivilRightsHistory #MLKLegacy #EpsteinIsland #PoliticalDrama #TruthLeaks #JusticeForAll #USHistory #PoliticalControversy Also Read Donald Trump Reiterates India-Pakistan Conflict: Says 5 Jets Were Shot Down During Operation Sindoor :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-reiterates-india-pakistan-conflicts-says-5-jets-were-shot-down-7805649.html?ref=DMDesc US President Donald Trump Sues Wall Street Journal For $10 Billion In 2003 Epstein Report :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-sues-wall-street-journal-for-10-billion-in-2003-epstein-report-7805627.html?ref=DMDesc Is Donald Trump Visiting Pakistan In September?

Iran's Nuclear Warning To U.S And Israel: Iran Refuses To QUIT Nuke Plans|Trump Says 'Will Strike..'

Iran has vowed to continue uranium enrichment despite devastating U.S. and Israeli airstrikes that severely damaged its nuclear sites. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called the program a “national pride,” rejecting any abandonment of nuclear ambitions. The strikes, which followed failed U.S.-Iran talks, sparked a 12-day air war before a ceasefire. Trump hailed the attack’s success, warning more strikes “if necessary.” Despite pressure, Tehran says it will rebuild its facilities, viewing nuclear power as a vital deterrent against Western and regional rivals. #Iran #USIranTensions #Israel #NuclearProgram #MiddleEastConflict #UraniumEnrichment #AbbasAraghchi #Trump #Airstrikes #Ceasefire #IranNuclearDeal #RegionalPower #Khamenei #USForeignPolicy #IsraelIranWar #Tehran #OmanTalks #MiddleEastNews #Geopolitics #MilitaryConflict #GlobalSecurity #IranVows #AirWar #NuclearSites #IranVsUS #DefenseStrategy #IranIsrael #WarThreats #NuclearCrisis #BreakingNews Also Read ChatGPT Surges: 2.5 Billion Daily Prompts Signal Massive User Growth :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/chatgpt-surges-2-5-billion-daily-prompts-signal-massive-user-growth-011-7807321.html?ref=DMDesc Kristin Cabot Affair Drama: How a Coldplay Concert Threw a Boston Brahmin Family into the Limelight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kristin-cabot-affair-drama-how-a-coldplay-concert-threw-a-boston-brahmin-descendant-into-the-limeli-011-7807127.html?ref=DMDesc Andy Byron Divorce: Is Astronomer CEO’s Net Worth at Risk Over His Affair With HR Kristin Cabot? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/andy-byron-divorce-is-astronomer-ceo-s-net-worth-at-risk-over-affair-with-hr-kristin-cabot-011-7806289.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~
