07.07.2025 โข The Flood's Grim Count
โจThe US media intensely focused on the Texas flash floods throughout July 7th, with the confirmed death toll escalating dramatically. Early reports detailed scores of fatalities, rising to over 80 by morning, with continued search efforts for missing individuals, particularly from Camp Mystic. By early afternoon, the specific tragic loss of 27 campers and counselors from Camp Mystic became a central point of coverage. As the day progressed, the death toll surpassed 90, then 100, fueling discussions on weather forecast accuracy, the role of federal budget cuts to agencies like NOAA, and climate change links. Political scrutiny emerged, with the White House defending President Trump's response and Senator Ted Cruz facing criticism for vacationing abroad. Simultaneously, President Trump announced new 25% tariffs on goods from Japan, South Korea, and other nations, establishing a significant secondary economic narrative.
