  1. When I hear about people in some western states talking about water shortages, I think if there was a way for them to get some of our rain. The trouble with Kentucky rain is that it usually rains so much each time. It doesn't rain like it does in Washington state. The flood of 1977 was horrible but I believe people had more warning. We didn't lose anyone back then. My condolences to all those people 🙏

  2. This is happening in Ky because Mitch McConnel is to blame. After all, he does not care about the people of KY. So, McConnell just lies through his teeth, good providence but screws his base in the ass. McConnell is a climate change denier and a despotic and deadbeat politician, and these morons still vote for him.

  3. Where was Jesus?

  4. Why is flooding not illegal? Do we even have enough prison space for all this water?

  5. The 1921 storm in central Texas was 38inches of rain in one day. Brushy Creek was 10miles wide. I can't even imagine that happening today. Those storms in Kentucky sound similar, where you'd never expect a creek to suddenly be the size of a huge river.

  6. Mother Nature is really ticked off at McConnell's state, she is ticked off about him, too. Don't mess with Mother Nature.

  7. Yeah this really sucks I feel so sorry for all those people

  8. Keep voting Republican and things will keep getting worse

  9. Now imagin 53 feet of flood water. That's the highest flood water ever recorded in the U.S. in a town 5 mins away from me during hurricane Harvey. May the people who died in Lochridge rip.

  10. Hahahahahahahahahaha God will at play he did not care about these people Hahahahahahahahahaha. But keep praying to your fake God for help hahahahahahahahahaha.

  11. McConnell and Rand Paul , are they going to block relief for Kentucky? After all according to them federal relief funds is socialism when happens to other states and territories

  12. He who controls the weather controls the world. These are not my words.. how much longer we gonna alow the attacks ?

  13. Remember, God chose this because of their way of life. Conservatives are wolves in sheeps clothing.

  14. Mighty white of him!

  15. Love my Kentucky! Yaw hang in there. Our thoughts & Prayers are with you!!! Stay Strong and know that we are here to help! Love my Kentucky people!

  16. What the hell, it's almost like hurricane weather

  17. I wonder if they will believe in climate change now? People in the tropical areas have been warning about this for 35 years

  18. Keep quite about it, otherwise next we'll have those nutty progressive democrats screaming global flooding next.
    Lions and Tigers and CO2 oh my…

  19. How very unAmerican for gutter trash to get some sort of kick out of these deaths.

    They play off the false assumption that all the folks from Kentucky are White, Conservative, Christian, Racists.

    I'm not surprised that it's typical liberal garbage that are making these unAmerican remarks.

    What do you expect from uneducated knuckle-dragging vermin that are about to lose the next two elections?

  20. This will unfortunately keep happening and getting worst. RIP to the lives lost

  21. America is Cursed don’t you people get it. Until you pay the Descendants of American Slavery there Reparations this will only get worse. GOD is Angry what you’ve done to his children and continue to do on a daily basis. You’ve been warned!!!

  22. When is America going to start using the United Nations, for expedited relief?

  23. The plan is : drop some more trailers and get on with our lives

  24. This isn’t making national news or being highlighted on the liberal news networks because this is a white state. Louisiana…well that would be a racial thing.

  25. What the weather is going on in Kentucky?

  26. La solucion es esta: como puede inundarse de nuevo, creen un lago artificial sin agua. Preparen un canal si sube el agua se desvie a este lago artificial. Problem solved.

  27. So RIP to the families that lost loved ones. And to anyone who thinks this isn't going to happen every year for the rest of our lives, you are wrong. I mean we could cut methane emission and get a cooler atmosphere in 20 years, that would be great and is totally possible.

  28. GO FLOOD, SINK THAT TAX DRAIN OF A STATE LESS GOO!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  29. God Bless Kentuckians. Stay safe. I had to evacuate the California wildfires in 2018. I hate commiefornia. I'm leaving the state. RED WAVE 2024 .

  30. Diseases & plagues, Floods & famine…
