    Is it a requirement that the Spurs announce they are providing help to this disaster?

    It's possible HEB is sending those packages because they got money from organizations like the Spurs to do so. At the same time, it would be a departure from the previous strategy to not announce something if they were doing it. Even if they were only motivated by trying to help people, it's bad PR to seem like you're doing nothing, and that is bad for community engagement. There's a difference between making a statement that you're sending money and making a scene in the disaster zone trying to score PR points.

    Where is FEMA?

    Oh, that's right, Kristi Noem appropriated all their funds to build concentration camps in Florida.

    Where is the Texas government?

    Oh, that's right, on crusades against marijuana, making women's health illegal, and making it illegal for construction workers to get water during 100 degree weather.

    Man, it would be stupid to donate money to this situation unless you know it's another 'donation' to our Holy Fuhrer.

    There's absolutely no reason to suspect any aid is getting to people and not to Mar-a-Lago.

    You total piece of dog s**t. The bodies aren't even accounted for, you know NOTHING about what was or was not done. There's a man and his wife who use to work for a SA investment firm who are still missing. And you want to score political points? F you and the wh**res you rode in on.

There's going to be much, much more blood on your hands, mother er, and it's all Donald Trump, all GOP, and all MAGA, mother er, and now is exactly the time to talk about it, mother er.

    I probably need to study up more on Public Relations Theory then. Too many days watching Mr. Deeds and Anger Management (love those movies), and not opening up a shmook (book), I suppose.

    I just figure maybe if the Spurs are helping out, it's help first, then worry about PR later. I have a feeling that Pop is a "We don't announce our good deeds out loud" kind of guy. That's pretty much the kind of person I am, so I can relate.

    And on top of that a Coast Gouard rescue diver saved over 160 people and Texas has had people working non-stop with several hundred rescues by helicopter. Some people like being ignorant and some are just insane...

    I'm not a Trump fan (never have been...certainly not Maga), but outrageous BS claims like this from one side are exactly why Trump won. They continue to push people in his arms with this insane BS.

    People get pushed into Trump's arms because they get butthurt when he's called out for doing blatantly illegal like stealing congressionally appropriated money that should have gone to FEMA to build Alligator Auschwitz?

    I'm not saying that there's not more than one reason, im saying the insanity like I was responding too is one reason. , that crap made me feel a little remorse for him for a second until I took a breath, stepped back, and looked at the bigger picture. Most people don't take the step back to breathe and just get pushed by this BS.

    I'm not gonna bash the spurs for not mentioning aid because they almost certainly are doing something, and I think talking about good deeds makes them less valuable.

    Nah, bro, Trump won because this country is full on legitimately insane.

    And yes, now is the time to talk about how MAGA and Republicans everything up.

    Another mass shooting in a school? Now's not the time to talk about mass shootings!

    A hundred cops stand around outside Uvalde and prevent parents from trying to rescue their children from getting massacred?

    Now's not the time to talk about policing!

    Seventy people drown because the ing Texas legislature won't put in ing alarms, that aren't even expensive, for over a decade. Now's not the time to talk about it!

    Yeah. Now's the time to talk about how the GOP s up absolutely everything. In fact, this is exactly what they want. Their ideology is that government cannot do anything to help people, and so they prevent government from helping people.

    NOW is the time to talk about it, to prevent this from happening again.

    And, any of you who say "let's not be political." Yes, let's be political. Now is the time to be political.

    Man outta here with this fake outrage bull . Everything he said was correct and has nothing to do with scoring political points, it's facts. Channel your fake rage at the people who actually deserve it, the ones who cut funding for these types of disasters and the funding for ing monitoring them so we know before they happen. ing victim playing maga chode
