Note that firefighters and a water rescue team from Mexico did go to Texas to help after the flooding, and Mexico's president praised them for doing so. They just weren't ordered to help by Mexico's president.

Of course the president is not personally organizing these groups. It is the support of their efforts that counts and differs so greatly from the lack of effort and caring from the Texas leadership.

13 from Mexico, 5 people and 2 dogs from Minnesota "During the July 2025 Central Texas floods, over 2,000 rescuers, including volunteers and personnel from various agencies, assisted with search and rescue operations."

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/10/u... Was it Mexico or Minnesota that rejected repeated requests for a warning system? You don't get to start the fire then get credit for putting it out after killing people. Republican politics at its best. Fail to plan. Put in your dress up clothes and play hero.

It doesn't negate the fact that there were plenty of warnings issued before the flood, but people were either asleep or ignored the warnings and the water rose 30 feet in 45 minutes.

"A 13-person water rescue team from Mexico, consisting of nine members from the Civil Protection Water Rescue Team and four from the non-profit Foundation 911, traveled to Texas to assist with flood recovery efforts."

It just shows the world how civilized people behave. They help their neighbors, not lock them in stockades and rape them. Goddam I hate being "american". I feel like I need to send cookies and a thank you note, AT LEAST...
