Episode Synopsis

On today’s show, we confront the growing and deeply troubling trend of politicizing tragedy—specifically, the devastating floods that have ravaged parts of Texas. These floods have claimed innocent lives, including those of young girls, and left countless families shattered in their wake. Rather than uniting in grief, compassion, and support, some individuals on social media have chosen instead to weaponize the disaster for political gain.Shockingly, posts have surfaced directly blaming President Trump and his supporters for the natural disaster—some even suggesting that those affected "got what they deserved." This type of rhetoric isn't just distasteful; it’s morally bankrupt. To suggest that political affiliation somehow justifies death or suffering is a line that should never be crossed. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: [email protected]: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.
