Texas flood lies: From FEMA cuts to climate blame



The devastating Texas flood tragedy has been met with heroism, kindness, and, of course, a shocking surge of political spin and falsehoods from the left.

“You get the run-of-the-mill, standard nonsense, of course, from House Democrats saying climate change is obviously a part of the Texas flooding,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere says on “Stu Does America.”

“You can understand the corollary of why you might say something as dumb as that. The issue, of course, is, why would you go to that place right now? I mean, even if you think climate change is the issue, you’re not solving it tomorrow,” he continues. “You don’t need to dance on the graves of all the dead children today to make your political point.”

“But of course, they can’t do that,” he adds, before comparing how CNN’s Dana Bash handled the flooding in North Carolina under Biden versus the way she’s handling the flooding in Texas under Trump.


“The former president is falsely accusing federal relief agencies of maliciously withholding and misusing aid,” Bash said on CNN, playing a clip of Trump blasting Biden for giving North Carolina residents $750 while shelling out billions to foreign countries.

“What you just heard is not true. They’re rumors and they’re lies, and they are hurting the very people that thousands of FEMA emergency responders are trying to help,” she continued.

Now, after the Texas floods, Bash appears to be blaming National Weather Service cuts the Trump administration made, asking Rep. Joaquin Castro, “Do you have any indication whether those or other cuts helped play a role in the fact that the people in the flood zone were not prepared and certainly not evacuated?”

“The National Weather Service did warn about this,” Burguiere comments. “As we pointed out, when you make a warning and it’s the middle of the night and the whole thing develops between midnight and 4 a.m., it’s really, really hard to get enough people awake to avoid tragedy.”

According to NWS meteorologist Jason Runyen, most offices usually have two on staff when the weather is benign, and there were five on staff the night of the storm.

The NWS office also issued a flood watch for the area at 1:18 p.m. on Thursday, which was 15 hours in advance. While a flash flood warning was issued at 1:14 a.m., most residents were likely asleep.

Even a reporter on ABC News explained that “they were actually staffed extra because they knew it would be a big night.”

“Do I think that something happened from the weather service side that was related to that? No. I think that they were staffed fully. I think they did the best they could and put out the warnings in a pretty timely fashion,” the reporter said.

“There you go. I mean, it’s not just the conservatives saying that. If you actually find people who are honest in the media — and you had an example there — they will tell you that this had nothing to do with Trump's funding issues,” Burguiere adds.

Is there a sinister GOP plan to destroy Yellowstone and our national parks?



The "one big, beautiful bill” received a draft proposal last week from the Republican Utah Senator Mike Lee-led Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, which would mandate the sale of between 2.2 million and 3.3 million acres of public land owned by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service in the American West.

While Lee has framed the proposal as a means to increase affordable housing, critics claim it would do little to aid in the housing crisis and instead would just bar the public from beautiful land they now still can enjoy.

Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck doesn’t share their critique.

“What we mean by ‘affordable housing’ is if you take a look at the percentage of land that is owned in some of these states, you can’t live in a house in some of these states, close to anything, for less than a million dollars. Because there’s no land,” Glenn explains on “The Glenn Beck Program.”


“Can we just look at the perspective here? The federal government owns 640 million acres. That is nearly 28% of all land in America. How much land do we have? Well, that’s about the size of France, Germany, Poland, and the United Kingdom combined,” he continues.

“They own and hold pristine land that is more than the size of those countries combined, and most of that is west of the Mississippi, where the federal control smothers the states, shuts down opportunity, and turns local citizens into tenants of the federal estate,” he adds.

With less land available for citizens, there are higher prices and less state taxes paid on land.

“We’re not talking about selling Yellowstone or paving over Yosemite or anything like that. We’re talking about less than one-half of one percent of federal land that is remote, hard to access, or mismanaged,” Glenn says.

“This is really important,” he continues. “The federal government is, what, $35 trillion in debt, or are we $45 trillion now? I’m not sure. Our entitlement programs are all strained, infrastructure crumbling, and yet we’re still clinging to millions of acres of land that the federal government can’t maintain.”

The HIDDEN motive behind the anti-Trump 'No Kings' protests



Prominent figures on the left, like AFT President Randi Weingarten and Walmart heiress Christy Walton, are promoting a “nationwide day of defiance” protest event called “No Kings Day.”

Seeing as Los Angeles was just in flames this past weekend as protesters burned their own city, Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck believes this may just be a way to sow more chaos in America.

“This is headed by Randi Weingarten, who is, you know, strange, the head of the teachers' union. Why is she so passionate about all of this? I wonder why,” Glenn says.


According to the left, this gathering is to protest our “defiled courts,” “deported Americans,” “disappeared people off the streets,” “attacked our civil rights,” and “slashed our services.”

“What do you suppose that this is going to look like in the midst of everything else that is going on?” Glenn asks. “If you weren’t for revolution, you would say, ‘You know, guys, we’ve been working on the "no kings" thing; let’s just hold off a little bit because we have California, L.A., going on.'”

“They’re not responsible people. That is not their goal — to do reasonable things. Their goal is to create as much chaos as possible,” he says. “Anything that brings more chaos on the street is not a good thing. Stay away from people who are preaching chaos. Law, order, constitutional principles, and principles that we find in the gospel of Jesus Christ.”

And while the news coverage would make it seem like everyone who lives in Los Angeles is currently on the streets protesting, BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere points out that’s not the case at all.

“Most people in Los Angeles are going about their business, absolutely normally. Their lives are normal; they’re unaffected,” Stu tells Glenn.

“News just cuts out the perspective that entire cities aren’t on fire,” he adds.

LA riots 'mostly peaceful'? Here's the TRUTH



The first summer under the Trump administration since 2020 wouldn’t be complete without leftists rioting and burning cities to the ground — and the mainstream media explaining it away as if those rioters are “peaceful protesters.”

“And even those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest, did not create any violence. Nobody was shot, nobody was killed, get it in your heads,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), one of many Democrats blind to the violence occurring all around them, said after the protests.

Dana Bash also publicly joined Waters in her delusion.

“The L.A. County police say that they have it under control, carrying the flag is not illegal, as you know. What did happen in 1992 was so different from what we’re seeing now,” Bash said in a recent segment on CNN.


Other liberal commentators have continued to push the idea that these riots were “peaceful” and that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were the ones provoking the protesters.

“Most of those demonstrators were very peaceful except for all of them,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales mocks, adding, “You don’t hate the mainstream media enough. You don’t hate them enough.”

“All of these mainstream Democrats who are going out there, and they are continuing the absurd rhetoric of Donald Trump being mean, orange man bad, I guess we want to, I don’t know, welcome gangbangers and murderers and rapists and really bad people back into the country because this is all mean Donald Trump’s fault,” she continues.

“I cannot believe they are continuing this same unhinged rhetoric that got President Trump elected again. I can’t believe that they are trying this again, while everyone is watching these illegals and these wild crazy leftists burn down L.A.,” she says, adding, “I cannot believe they are so stupid to think this is going to work again.”

Is the Mexican president ENCOURAGING riots in America?



Los Angeles was burning, via angry protesters speaking out against Trump’s deportations over the weekend, and the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, appeared to encourage it — despite claiming she did nothing of the sort.

“If necessary, we will mobilize, because we do not want taxes on the remittances from our fellow countrymen, from the United States to Mexico,” Sheinbaum said in a statement that’s landed her in hot water.

“He’s got these tariffs on the foreign remittances, and she’s very upset about what’s going on this country, that we’re actually cracking down on all of her people who are coming here and all of the lack of doing due diligence that her country did, and the people who didn’t come from Mexico, who went right on through,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”


“They were like ‘Could I see your papers please,’ and they’re like, ‘Don’t worry, I’m just passing through, going to the United States,’” she continues. “So she’s very upset that this gravy train for the cartels and the coyotes has run out.”

Not only does it appear that the Mexican government did not do due diligence in protecting Mexico's own borders, but BlazeTV contributor Matthew Marsden can’t understand why those who are protesting in favor of Mexico, and against America, live here.

“This is the weird thing, right, number one, they’re flying flags of the country that they left. Why aren’t you back there? Just go,” Marsden says.

“This is something that I have literally asked them,” Gonzales says. “I have literally asked them here in Dallas at the anti-ICE protest in Dallas, they’re all waving Mexican flags, and they were all yelling in my face, ‘Viva Mexico.’”

“Why don’t you just go back if you’re so proud of that country that you want to wave that flag here? Why are you staying? Makes no sense,” she adds.

Auto industry makes a ‘big U-turn’ and cuts the cord on electric vehicles



Electric vehicles were the transportation of the future, until they weren’t.

General Motors has given up on its plan to put $300 million toward electric vehicle motor production and instead is nearly tripling that by putting $888 million into the latest V-8 engines — which not too long ago BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere believed were a thing of the past.

“The story is that GM is now investing in V-8 engines as it backpedals on EVs,” Burguiere tells journalist and automotive expert Lauren Fix. “Now, I bought a car that was supposed to be the last V-8 in this line from GM, thinking to myself, ‘Oh, well I’m going to have the last one, and it would be great to have that.’”

“She did what I call the big U-turn,” Fix says of GM’s CEO, Mary Barra. “She was in some Wall Street Journal conference the other day saying, ‘Oh, electric cars are the future. I still believe in them 100%.’”


“But on the other side, she put $888 million into a plant here in Buffalo, New York — the Tonawanda Engine facility, which is one of the original engine plants — and a total of $1.4 million into the Flint Engine plant to build V-8s, which they’re having issues with,” Fix explains.

“So, I think they need to figure out their V-8s and maybe reduce their electric vehicle footprint because while they’re continuing four more products coming out — as I’ve been saying ... this is a disaster,” she continues.

“I’ve been seeing — and tell me if this is just what I’m seeing on the internet, if this is real — I’m seeing cars with MSRPs of $60,000 being offered at lots, brand new, for $35,000 and $40,000 because they cannot get rid of them,” Stu says.

“That is 100% correct,” Fix says.

LA erupts in violence — what the rioters are really rioting about will stun you



Los Angeles, California, is on fire yet again. Yet this time, nature isn’t to blame for the rapid spread, but rather riots over the lawful deportation of violent illegal aliens.

“Obviously the Trump administration is going in and doing what he said he was going to do, which includes deporting illegal criminals, and they were arresting a bunch of, I would say, the worst of the worst foreign criminals in an ICE raid over there in Los Angeles,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales explains.

And while those on the left are enraged by what they see as an authoritarian move by the Trump administration, Gonzales can’t help but point out that the criminals ICE was going after are not the best.


“One of them is an illegal from Vietnam with a criminal history that includes a conviction for second-degree murder. One of them, a 55-year-old illegal alien from the Philippines who was convicted of burglary, sexual penetration with a foreign object, and assault with intent to commit rape,” she explains.

“One of them, a 55-year-old Mexican national with a criminal history that includes discharging a firearm at an inhabited dwelling, vehicle battery on spouse or cohabitant, cruelty to a child, driving under the influence, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and personal use of a firearm,” she continues.

“44 years old from Mexico, here’s another one. Sexual battery, receiving known or stolen property, and petty theft,” she says, adding, “Grand theft larceny, possession of a prohibited weapon. Ecuadorian national convicted of conspiracy to possess 5 kg or more of cocaine with intent to distribute.”

Despite their lengthy rap sheets, liberals are still burning the streets of their own city to protest their deportation.

“The Democrats are basically just the party of criminals at this point,” Gonzales says. “You’ve got Mexican flags being waved, you've got cars burning; they’re setting the cars on fire while they’re waving Mexican flags.”

“I keep wondering,” she continues, “if you love Mexico so much, why don’t you just go back, like why is it a chore to get you into law enforcement's possession and just get you to go back where you came from if you love your Mexican flag so much and you love your home country so much?”

“You could just self-deport. It would save us a lot of time and a lot of trouble and a lot of money, if you love that country so much,” she adds.

Biden FINALLY addresses autopen controversy — or does he?



Former President Joe Biden has finally addressed the autopen controversy, but it hasn’t quite set the American people at ease.

“Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency,” Biden said in a statement to ABC News. “I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false.”

“Nothing to see here,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales comments on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.” “I don’t know what medium this was given to ABC News.”

“That was written by the autopen,” jokes Jaco Booyens, host of "The Bottom Line."


“Hold on, guys,” Gonzales continues. “You guys were just accused of covering for the mental decline of a president and hiding him, and instead of letting him speak for himself, you’re just releasing statements to news organizations. That seems suspicious.”

“If I knew there was no scandal to be had, I probably wouldn’t even address it. So, it seems weird to me that they are trying to cover, just as President Trump is issuing a memo for the DOJ to formally investigate Joe Biden’s use of autopens and who was that shadow cabal behind the autopen,” she adds.

And after reviewing some video footage of President Biden’s public appearances from the last four and a half years, Gonzales and her panel don’t find his most recent statement very believable.

“Sharpest, most brilliant president ever, right there,” BlazeTV contributor Matthew Marsden says, adding, “This is unbelievable.”

“There’s no scandal here,” Gonzales laughs.

Weaponized lies? 2-year-old’s deportation used as anti-Trump propaganda



When it comes to immigration, the mainstream narrative portrays the Trump administration as callously prioritizing enforcement over empathy — and it’s no different when it comes to the case of a 2-year-old U.S. citizen born in Florida.

The 2-year-old, Emanuelly “Manu” Borges Santos, was deported to Brazil in February 2025 alongside her undocumented parents, who were facing a deportation order since December 2022.

“It was her illegal alien mother and father who were deported; they just happened to take their daughter with them,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray says on “Pat Gray Unleashed.” “I guess you don’t deport anybody who has children.”


“I mean, you make a decision to enter the country illegally, then there are going to be consequences that maybe you don’t foresee, and here we are,” Keith Malinak chimes in.

But that hasn’t stopped the liberal media from blasting the Trump administration in support of these illegal immigrants.

“You’ve got the backing of publications like the Washington Post to provide you cover and try to make the American government look like they’re really super mean and just unfeeling and uncaring and evil and oppressive,” Gray says.

The Washington Post has also claimed that the young girl no longer has a country — but the Brazilian government has made “Manu” a temporary citizen until she turns 18.

“It’s a complete lie,” Malinak says.

“It’s just a bash-Trump story; that’s all this is,” Gray adds.

EPA reverses Biden-era rules on greenhouse gas emissions



The Environmental Protection Agency under President Trump is looking a lot different than the one that existed under Biden after Trump’s rollback of greenhouse gas limits.

The agency is now proposing to repeal all greenhouse gas emissions standards for fossil fuel-fired power plants, which would include requirements set under Biden.

“This is a big deal, because when you think about your electricity bill, when you think about the cost of powering the country, these power plants are a huge part of it,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere explains on “Stu Does America.”

“When you limit how they can produce the fuel that you need, you wind up driving up the cost of that energy. That’s why your power bills have probably gone up over the past couple of years,” he continues, noting that the reasoning behind Biden’s requirements were silly in the first place.


“You have to remember that 88% of emissions don’t come from the United States. Everyone’s obsessed with the United States and what we’re driving and what kind of power we’re using, but 88% of global emissions come from other places, not us,” Stu says. “So really, the focus on us just kind of seems to be a little bit more about anti-capitalism than anything else.”

And while 12% of global emissions do come from the United States, 75% of those emissions are coming from sources that are not power plants.

“What we’re talking about here is only 3% of global emissions. A little, tiny slice of a little, tiny slice that comes from coal and natural gas plants,” Stu explains. “And that’s not even the entire picture, because things have been changing, honestly, in a direction that nobody on television wants to tell you about, because everyone wants to scare you.”

“Everyone wants to tell you that the emissions are going crazy, and we’re all going to die, and global warming is coming to town, and it’s going to, you know, going to backhand you across the face, and we’re going to have these terrible storms,” he continues.

In a chart revealing the total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 to 2022, the amount continues to drop.

“They’ve been going down since the mid-2000s, not dramatically. Down from 5.5% in 2005,” Stu says. “With the exception, really, of the COVID year, where we had one dramatic drop. And even the dramatic drop, it wasn’t all that dramatic, which kind of tells you something about greenhouse emissions overall.”

“When we basically shut down our economy for a year,” he adds, “we just had a slight drop in greenhouse gas emissions.”
