US EditionGeorgia MAGA Candidate Stands by 'Fake Weather' Claims After Texas Flash Flood
CENTRAL TEXAS, JUL 6 – At least 30 people died and 850 were rescued after over 12 inches of rain caused flash floods in Texas, with political backlash over misinformation intensifying.
- A Georgia Republican congressional candidate posted on July 5, 2025, calling the deadly Texas Guadalupe River flash floods "fake weather."
- Her posts stemmed from the flash floods caused by over 12 inches of rain falling in a few hours on July 4th, which led to rapid river rises and dozens of deaths.
- The floodwaters rose as much as 26 feet overnight in a rugged topography, catching residents unaware and causing at least 30 confirmed deaths and 27 missing at a girls' camp.
- Brett Anderson, a senior meteorologist, explained the sudden heavy rains ran off due to climate change causing more atmospheric moisture, while critics condemned the candidate's conspiracy claims amid ongoing rescue efforts.
- The candidate's denial drew broad backlash as Texas continued searching for victims, highlighting tensions between political discourse and the reality of increasingly severe weather events in the U.S.
