05.07.2025 โข The Flood's Unfolding Toll
โจThe US media's editorial focus shifted decisively on July 5th to the escalating Texas flash floods. Throughout the morning and early afternoon, reports detailed a rapidly rising death toll, initially in the teens, quickly increasing to 24, with a critical focus on dozens of missing children, primarily from summer camps. Search and rescue operations intensified throughout the day. By late afternoon and into the evening, the reported fatalities climbed further to at least 27, and then to 32, with the dire search for over two dozen missing campers continuing. Local officials began criticizing the National Weather Service, attributing faulty forecasts to budget cuts. Concurrently, President Trump's "big, beautiful bill," signed on July 4th, remained a point of political discussion, with attention on its potential impact on Social Security and the administration's subsequent actions, including announcing talks with China on TikTok.
