And Soft Refreshing Rain

A downpouring of the divine mercy upon a Christian indoctrination camp in Texas has led to questions about the wisdom of the Trumpster administration's recent entrustification of weather warnings to Providence rather than science. Nevertheless, it appears the Christian state of Texas has been steadfast in its faith: despite having prayed for a different outcome, one adult relative of a nine-year-old victim proclaimed himself thankful that she was killed with her friends while having the time of her life; and although the disaster area is known as Flash Flood Alley because the soil is so thin, the chief elected official stated that the county doesn't do warning systems. The Trumpster has not so far claimed credit for all lives spared, but the administration is "working with" state and local officials, so presumably it won't be long. In the meantime, prayers from the White House are ongoing; apparently not even the White House is claiming any longer that thoughts might be involved.
