  1. The texas Republic will hold

  2. I would not be surprised if it was illegals or some arsonist paid for by elites that want to blame it on climate change while destroying grazing lands and killing cattle. They seem to want us to have no food.

  3. A fire in Texas? this is the first i'm hearing about this.

  4. Sending thoughts and prayers. Looks like the wrath of god….Poor animals 😢

  5. All the families, towns, and businesses affected, perhaps ruined, by these wildfires deserve better. They deserve the truth about climate change now and going forward, it's not going to get better. Instead they are lied to over and over and over by politicians wanting their vote, corporations wanting to avoid regulation, and pundits selling comfortable lies rather than inconvenient truths. They deserve a federal, state, and local government working in tandem to prepare for the future and mitigate the losses occurring now. That isn't happening much in Texas, they deserve better.

  6. Don't go asking the Country for money, funds, a hand out because California and New York fund all your wa wa cry baby money prayers.

  7. You gotta clean your floors, you gotta clean your forests. There are many, many years of leaves and broken trees and they’re like, like, so flammable, you touch them and it goes up. Maybe we’re just going to have to make them pay for it, because they don’t listen to us. We say you got to get rid of the leaves, you got to get rid of the debris, you got to get rid of the fallen trees.

  8. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, and against the worldly governors, the princes of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness, which are in the high places.

  9. Geeee how stupid dew they think everyone is?

  10. Would have been nice if givernor ever did anything to ptotect the Texas environmet. Now he expects federal money but refuses to share in electric grid. God please help and protect all the people of Texas!! 🙏🏻🌎☮️☘️🌊🌊🌊

  11. "hmmm!" California, Arizona. Illegal immigrants. Wildfires! Hmmmmm!

  12. I wish you luck and stay safe. 🙂👍

  13. But climate change isn't real, keep drilling lol

  14. Gee, wonder who started them……

  15. 😐 Oh man. I'm just gonna get worse. Oh, well. This world is doomed. Anyways, moving on. .3.

  16. so pantex is where america makes nuclear weapons? def a targeted location

  17. The fire may be purposely set to divert attention from the border crisis.

  18. OK I'll ask, why do they have newswomen from the 1990's (the left) and the 1970's (the right)? No shade, both are attractive and competent newswomen, they just look from different eras in time.

  19. Now over 1 million acres burned combined.

  20. Was it deliberately set? 🤔

  21. white house did it…energy weapons again just like hawaii..punishment for the boarder hahaha wow they are SOOO OBVIOUS

  22. There is no fire – Fake News

  23. Whos going to be held accountable for all the murder. !! Poor cows!!

  24. I wonder who started this fire?

  25. I wish I hadn't seen the cattle running for their lives 😭😭😭😭😭
    I wish I could help y'all Texas! I don't know what else to say ☹️

  26. Was this done on purpose to cause the great state of Texas problems? Due to their stand on the border. God bless Texas. I’m from fort worth.

  27. Anyone thinking this was started intentionally?, I wonder who would want to do that,…..think about it. Be safe people.

  28. Is this Greg Abbotts attempt to control his border?

  29. It's a good thing I just painted my roof blue.
