<p>A Texas pediatrician apologized after being fired for a Facebook comment saying Texas flood victims who supported President Donald Trump got &#8220;what they voted for.&#8221;</p>
<p>Christina B. Propst, who had been employed by Blue Fish Pediatrics, <a href="https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2025/07/07/houston-pediatrician-fired-after-controversial-post-about-kerr-county-flood-victims/">said</a> in a statement to KPRC that her &#8220;regrettable comment was in no way a response to the tragic loss of human life.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Unfortunately, my online comment is now being shared with the false impression that I made it after the devastating loss of life was known,&#8221; Propst said. &#8220;I did not.&#8221;</p>
<p>Propst said she deleted the comment after she learned of the fatalities, which include dozens of children.</p>
<p>Although it&#8217;s unclear when Propst posted her comment, the earliest news on July 4 reported fatalities, including children attending a girls&#8217; Christian camp.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/flooding-in-texas-causes-multiple-fatalities-as-guadalupe-river-surges-to-record-levels">reported</a> early that morning that &#8220;multiple people [were] reportedly dead.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Associated Press <a href="https://apnews.com/article/thunderstorms-texas-deaths-camp-mystic-trees-hail-e8a4c85c77f714c9a974e50f3cd1fca1">published</a> a July 4 story detailing the known fatalities, reporting that multiple children were dead or missing.</p>
<p>In the now-deleted comment, Propst said she hoped non-MAGA voters remained safe during the flooding.</p>
<p>“May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters, and pets be safe and dry,” she said under the Facebook user name, Chris Tina. “Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is the sort of pediatric clinician employed at <a href="https://twitter.com/BlueFishMD?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BlueFishMD</a> in Houston. The ethics, humanity and empathy illustrated here is unfathomable. <a href="https://t.co/yW0TbEMGN7">pic.twitter.com/yW0TbEMGN7</a></p>

<p>Blue Fish Pediatrics issued a statement Sunday saying Propst was &#8220;no longer employed,&#8221; The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/texas-pediatrician-fired-after-saying-maga-flood-victims-got-what-they-voted-for">reported</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;We do not support or condone any statement that politicizes tragedy, diminishes human dignity, or fails to clearly uphold compassion for every child and family, regardless of background or beliefs,&#8221; the statement said.</p>
<p>Multiple Democrats have repeated the claim that funding cuts and staff shortages at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Weather Service (NWS) contributed to the death toll.</p>
<p>Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) took shots at the Trump administration on X.</p>
<p>&#8220;Accurate weather forecasting helps avoid fatal disasters,&#8221; Murphy said in a <a href="https://x.com/ChrisMurphyCT/status/1941571878105297216">post</a>. &#8220;There are consequences to Trump’s brainless attacks on public workers, like meteorologists.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) echoed Murphy&#8217;s claims in a letter, <a href="https://x.com/RossOKeefe2/status/1942180517396336816/photo/1">calling</a> for an investigation into whether staff shortages hindered response times.</p>
<p>But experts say the reductions did not directly affect response times.</p>
<p>“There is little evidence that any of the recent cuts to NOAA/NWS negatively impacted services for this event, regardless of what may be being said on social media,” <a href="https://balancedweather.substack.com/p/balancedwx-special-tragic-flash-flooding" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> Alan Gerard, a former director of the Analysis and Understanding Branch in the National Severe Storms Laboratory at NOAA.</p>
<p>Jason Runyen, a meteorologist <span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">at the National Weather Service office, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/texas-floods-hill-country-weather-warnings-238d4325bb58f0b410015f74684738b6" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the local weather service had additional staff on hand </span>to prepare for potential flooding.</p>
<p>“There were extra people in here that night, and that’s typical in every weather service office — you staff up for an event and bring people in on overtime and hold people over,” Runyen said.</p>
<p>President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-confirms-plans-to-visit-flood-stricken-texas-as-170-people-still-missing">said</a> he plans to travel to Texas on Friday to meet with flood victims. The flash floods have killed at least 110 people, and more than 170 people are still missing.</p>
