Joining us now is Serio Martinez Belrren, a reporter for NPR based in Texas. Serio, I hope you're doing okay. I know you've reported on this area for a while.Um, I want to ask you first about the warnings because that seems to be a question everyone is asking. Did residents in this area get any kind of alert or flash flood warning.

MSNBC· 2025-07-06 16:51
All right, welcome back to the weekend prime time. Now that Trump's mega bill is now mega law, Democrats are pivoting from fighting the bill's passage to using it against Republicans in the midterms. The bill is wildly unpopular.I probably don't need to tell you that. A Fox News poll found only 38% of registered voters support it while 59% oppose it. DNC Chair Ken Martin tells the AP, quote, "Republicans own this mess and it's an albatross around their necks heading into the midterms, this is the least popu ...

MSNBC· 2025-07-05 00:16
In the days since it became clear that Zora Mamani would be the Democratic nominee for mayor in New York City, the response from Republicans has been about as unhinged as you might expect. Donald Trump is practically frothing at the mouth, threatening to arrest Mom Donnie, who of course has not broken any laws. There's talk on the right that they're going to like denaturalize him and deport him.At least one Republican congressman has called for the 33-year-old state assemblyman, a naturalized US citizen, to ...
