Fox News’ Jessica Tarlov Blasts Jesse Watters Over Texas Flood Comments

TEXAS, JUL 08 – Jessica Tarlov criticized Jesse Watters for applying a double standard on flood accountability and highlighted GOP rejection of over $54 billion in disaster resistance funding in Texas.

  • A severe flash flood occurred in Texas during the Fourth of July weekend, resulting in over 100 fatalities and ongoing efforts by authorities to locate additional survivors.
  • The disaster unfolded against a political climate in which Republican lawmakers declined to approve more than $54 billion in funding requests aimed at enhancing flood disaster resilience.
  • Jessica Tarlov criticized co-host Jesse Watters on July 7 for his inconsistent reactions to the Texas floods compared to 2024's Hurricane Helene under Biden's administration.
  • Watters described climate change as a 'religion' and claimed some believe appeasing rain gods requires 'using solar panels, stupid cars, and windmills,' while Tarlov emphasized the need for preparedness conversations.
  • The critiques highlight ongoing debates over federal disaster aid, media responses, and political accountability in managing natural disasters in 2024 and 2025.
