Senator Ted Cruz is under fire after deadly storms battered the state of Texas and gave rise to a massive natural catastrophe in the form of flooding.
The death toll has risen above 100, and more than 161 people are still unaccounted for. Shocking reports revealed how Senator Ted Cruz was on an overseas vacation in Greece at the time of the incident, forcing his quick return.
He shared how he was in the midst of a planned family vacation in Greece, but was forced to abandon his plans as soon as he was informed about the flooding.
‘I came here as humanly fast as possible!’- he shared, but the anger amongst Texans continues to loom.
The flooding has so far taken countless lives, including dozens of girls at summer camp. Officials confirmed during the late afternoon hours of Monday that many are still missing, and each day, more heartbreaking news continues to arrive.
Hopes are dwindling about any more survivors as first responders continue to put their best foot forward and find more people alive.
Meanwhile, Cruz was forced to share his personal timeline to answer all the questions about how he was well aware of the efforts at play during his absence when the storm first struck. Despite his reassurance, citizens are not happy with the delay times and the kind of responses at stake at this moment in time.
