Over 100 people have died after heavy rain pounded Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leading to "catastrophic" flooding, the sheriff said.

Buffalo News editorial cartoonist Adam Zyglis depicted a supporter of President Donald Trump drowning under the severe flash floods that took place in Texas.

After the catastrophic flash flooding in central Texas on July 4, 2025, users online claimed that U.S. President Donald Trump's administration was ultimately to blame for the flood's 100 deaths due to staffing cuts at the National Weather Service.

At least 120 people have been killed and 173 are still missing as Texas officials deflect questions over the state’s response to the catastrophic flash floods. Kerr County remains at the center of the disaster after the Guadalupe River burst its banks on Friday,

Cynthia Thomas describes the damage left behind by the catastrophic floods that struck Texas. Thomas explains to NBC News' Joe Fryer and Savannah Sellers why many people are likely to not rebuild due to the high costs of flood insurance.

Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo condemned the politicization of the Texas floods by Sen. Chris Murphy on Tuesday, arguing that such partisan rhetoric during tragedies is "killing us."

Historic rainfall fell last week in Central Texas, with the Guadalupe River rising 25 feet in 45 minutes around 4:30 a.m. on Friday, July 4. At least 84 of the confirmed fatalities are in Kerr County, Texas, including at least 27 at Camp Mystic, a summer camp along the river. Last week, Mr. Trump signed a disaster declaration for the region.

According to the MSNBC host, the president’s comments about the decor reveal exactly where his “head is at” as rescue efforts continue.

Plus, Medicaid and Affordable Care Act cuts in Donald Trump's domestic policy bill have rural hospitals considering what services they might have to cut.

Mr. Trump said his administration was working with state and local officials and that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem would be arriving in Texas shortly. DHS oversees the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
