Texas Flood Tragedy
The heartbreaking flooding in central Texas, including the devastating loss of young lives at a girls’ camp near Austin, is a tragedy that demands reflection, accountability, and action, not political grandstanding.
This catastrophe, while deeply painful, must be examined through a lens of historical and scientific clarity, not hijacked to push climate change or budgetary blame games.
The Flooding Crisis: What Happened?
The severe flooding that struck central Texas, including areas near Austin, has brought renewed attention to the vulnerabilities of flood-prone valleys. Heavy rains rapidly overwhelmed local waterways, causing flash flooding that destroyed homes, infrastructure, and tragically claimed lives.
Reports indicate that despite receiving advanced warning from weather services, the response at local and regional levels was tragically insufficient, highlighting critical gaps in emergency preparedness and land-use planning. I’ve previously detailed similar failures in emergency preparedness and the consequences in my article, “Shifting the Blame”.
Historical Context of Texas Flooding
Historically, central Texas is recognized as one of the most flood-prone areas in the United States. Flood events have occurred with devastating frequency and intensity for decades. The construction of dams and reservoirs throughout the 20th century was largely driven by the necessity of managing these frequent flooding episodes.
Ironically, these infrastructure developments dramatically reduced flood magnitudes across many rivers, making the recent catastrophe even more indicative of infrastructure and regulatory failure than any long-term climatic shift. I expanded on the importance of historical context and its frequent omission from climate narratives in my earlier article, “Unnatural Disasters,” dealing with the Palisades Fire, which was also blamed on climate change.
According to extensive research, including the recent Texas A&M 2024 Climate Report, river flooding in central Texas has not demonstrated a significant long-term increasing trend. The report explicitly states,
“No long-term river flooding trend has been identified in the observations, nor is such a trend projected at this point…”
Evaluating the Official Government Reports
Detailed examination of reports from the EPA and NOAA provides a critical counterpoint to simplistic climate narratives often pushed by the media and politicians. EPA documentation confirms that while the frequency of intense rainfall events has slightly risen, overall water availability and river flow in Texas have actually declined due to increased evaporation rates, changing vegetation, and altered land-use practices.
Additionally, NOAA and Texas A&M climate data explicitly contradict claims that extreme rainfall frequency and flooding are unprecedented or primarily climate-driven.
Central Texas has experienced variable rainfall trends, with recent decades showing primarily decreasing precipitation, dependent largely upon specific locations within the state. EPA data plots show variability rather than clear upward trends in flooding events, undermining the narrative that climate change alone drives increased flooding… unless climate change is only working in certain parts of the country.
Dissecting the Climate Narrative and Political Exploitation
Despite clear data from authoritative sources, politicians and certain climate scientists quickly leveraged the tragedy to blame recent federal budget cuts to agencies like NOAA and the National Weather Service. They suggested these budgetary adjustments significantly impaired weather forecasting, amplifying fatalities from severe weather events.
One particularly egregious example is a recent statement by Jay Inslee, who attempted to link President Trump’s policy actions on renewable energy directly to the Texas floods, claiming cuts to solar and wind energy have exacerbated extreme weather.
This claim is not only scientifically baseless but profoundly insensitive, using tragedy to push a political agenda.
However, historical records of flood-related fatalities…
clearly shows no definitive upward trend correlating with agency budgets, GHG concentration, or global average temperature. Death tolls from flooding fluctuate year-to-year without demonstrable dependence on changes in agency staffing or funding. These data-driven insights expose the politically motivated nature of claims linking recent budgetary decisions to tragic fatalities.
The Reality of Warnings and Response
Importantly, media reports confirm that local authorities and residents had ample warning of the impending severe weather event, over 12 hours of advanced notice.
“According to the National Weather Service website, the flash flood watch, which included Kerr County, was issued at 1:18 p.m. Thursday. Nearly 12 hours later, a “life threatening” flash flood warning was issued at 1:14 a.m., according to the website.”
Despite this clear and timely warning, the emergency response and community preparedness failed catastrophically. The failure was one of planning, zoning, and infrastructure, not the availability or accuracy of weather data, nor GHG concentration.
Real Solutions, Not Climate Alarmism
The misdirection towards climate alarmism distracts from pragmatic, essential responses needed to safeguard lives and property. The tragedy at the girls’ camp highlights dire deficiencies in land-use regulations and flood infrastructure. Building camps or residential areas within flood-prone valleys without adequate mitigation measures inevitably invites disaster.
Practical solutions exist: strengthening flood infrastructure, improving land-use zoning, investing in better emergency management systems, and implementing stricter regulations to restrict development in flood-prone areas. These solutions are immediate, actionable, and demonstrably effective, unlike vague climate-oriented rhetoric.
A Commitment to Continuous Data-Driven Updates
Moving forward, I commit to yearly updates analyzing new data on flooding events and fatalities, specifically to evaluate if the Trump administration’s budget cuts directly contribute to increased flooding fatalities. When these updates definitively demonstrate that budgetary adjustments have not led to an increase in fatalities, it raises a critical question: Will those who perpetuate this misleading narrative be held accountable?

International Public Notice: We Require Prompt Action
By Anna Von Reitz
Our people by any name are the “stumbling block” of the Bible, but although the words “stumbling block” often have a negative connotation, this function can be positive as well, when it prevents wrong action, wrong beliefs, and wrong thinking.
If you accept the fact that murder, theft, and violent destruction of people and property are wrong, you must also accept the value of those “stumbling blocks” that prevent the legalization of such things.
This “government” reporting form for “data” executed in the International Jurisdiction of the Sea and applying to Municipal Corporation Subcontractors is evidence that these corporations have acted in collusion and engaged in violation of the ENMOD Treaties that the Municipal Government is obligated to respect, and also in violation of the international treaties and service contracts known as The Constitution of the United States of America (British Territorial) and The Constitution of the United States (HRE).
Eighty-nine living people lost their lives and untold property damage resulted from the latest “experiment” conducted by noaa and its subcontractors. These are actual deaths and actual property damages created by fictional entities — a circumstance that causes irreparable harm and breach of the Law of Kinds.
Notice to Principals is Notice to Agents; Notice to Agents is Notice to Principals.
Tell Mr. Trump that this is not negotiable. Tell the “US Trustees” that they are not our trustees and never were.
And notice to principals is notice to agents; notice to agents is notice to principals….
There was no basis for Britain’s false claim latching onto the resources and assets of our Federal Republic dba “the United States” — our unincorporated Republic, on February 2nd 1871 nor any possible “Organic Act” available to their British Territorial U.S. Congress.
The last actual English monarch was Queen Anne (March 8th 1702 to August 1st 1714). After her reign, the crowns of England and Scotland were united under the “Kingdom” of Great Britain, which has existed in the International Jurisdiction of the Air ever since.
It’s a Company, not a country.
This is why “King Charles III” is an Emperor, not a King of any country.
No actual king or queen of England has existed as a singular sovereign entity since 1087 A.D. and no actual monarch of England has occupied the English throne since 1714; it follows inexorably that there is no sovereign international government in England. The only possible remaining authority would be in the jurisdiction of the air, which by definition includes no direct substantive rights.
No joint sovereignty was possible, and that is not the course that these parties took — see their Act of Union — and as a result, they have no standing to make any claim against our physical and substantive assets, including the American assets vested in the original Federal Republic which operated from 1787 to 1861.
The Federation of our States stood over the Confederation and the Confederation stood over the Federal Republic and the Federal Republic stood over the British Territorial Subcontractors.
Seeing that neither our States acting as a Federation nor the same States acting as a Confederation ever declared “war” during the so-called American Civil War and as the Federal Republic was an instrumentality and asset of ours that was secretly and in breach of trust and contract usurped and commandeered unlawfully, we are objecting to this fraud practiced upon us and upon our lawful government by our erstwhile British Territorial and Holy Roman Empire Subcontractors.
We are demanding recognition of the condition of the “British Government” including the Government of Westminster which was founded as a Royal Church establishment to oversee the duties of the so-called “King” as Overseer of the Church’s commonwealth properties in England.
We are demanding a complete, utter, and unequivocal cessation of presumptions and attacks against our substantive people and property by all and any fictional entities operating in any fictional domain whatsoever, including but not limited to such imaginary domains as “SOUTH TEXAS WMA” and corporations such as “EVERGREEN UGWCD”.
This complaint is forwarded to the International Criminal Court and numerous law enforcement and peacekeeping forces worldwide and assigned to the responsible Uniform Commercial Court Judge for prompt decision and enforcement.
We say that all actions presumed to be actions undertaken by a sovereign English or “British” government since August 1st 1714 onward cannot be sustained in the International Jurisdiction of the Sea and that all and any actions presumed to be undertaken by a sovereign English or “British” government on land since the death of William the Conqueror are similarly rendered invalid — except on those rare occasions when the progeny of the Norman Barons have spoken directly to an issue, as when they created The Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights.
And when we speak now, on behalf of Belle Chers who received their sovereignty in England at the hand of William the Conqueror and act as the Last Men Standing regarding these issues.
Even if the Scottish Government was still viable and was favorably aligned, they could not loan their singular sovereignty to England.
It is indicated in the historical record that all actions forwarded by this “British Government” including any Territorial Government attached to it, has perforce been taken in the Jurisdiction of the Air as employees of the Roman Municipal Government or Ecclesiastical authorities still operating under Roman Civil Law and the Spanish Law of the Inquisition, respectively —-and these actions and their jurisdiction have been fraudulently misrepresented throughout this entire time period.
As Pope Francis admitted in his Apostolic Letter of 2013, all these legal fictions have been made up out of thin air and have no substance at all. As a result, there is no excuse for any presumption that legal fiction entities of any kind are imbued with powers to attack their creators, and to the extent that legal fictions — including corporations of all kinds — cause harm to living people and their actual property, those legal fictions lose the right to exist.
Pursuant to our rights and claims and joint sovereignty upon the land and soil of The United States as already established via our accords with the native nations, we order the immediate abolishment of all fictional Municipal location designations such as “SOUTH TEXAS WMA” and all Municipal corporations such as “EVERGREEN UGWCD” that have been used to cause actual harm to the Earth, the living people, and those property assets naturally belonging to the living people.
It is Mr. Trump’s responsibility to defend this country and its people under his corporation’s service contract, “The Constitution of the United States of America”, and we require that his Administration must promptly attend to its contractual obligations to prevent all these attacks being carried out against the people of this country by legal fiction entities — from Pfizer to General Mills to the State of Oregon to the Internal Revenue Service, and including but not limited to Municipal Corporations such as FEMA, NOAA, IRS and the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, and so on.
All legal fictions are subject to the provisions of Ecclesiastical Law that allow their existence “for lawful purposes” and they may neither trespass nor transgress upon the living people and substantive physical assets in violation of lawful purposes. This means that merely legal purposes are not sufficient, and that all acts proposing “war” of any kind against the living by the dead (legal fictions are dead) are unlawful, null and void, and punishable by the death of the erring corporation(s) by direct liquidation, forfeiture, or dissolution.
No protection of the corporate veil is owed to corporations and managers acting in violation of this principle.
NOTICE TO AGENTS IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPALS; NOTICE TO PRINCIPALS IS NOTICE TO AGENTS.
