A pediatrician has been fired after politicizing the deadly floods in Texas.

Dr. Christina B. Propst came under fire over a now-deleted social media post about the tragic and deadly flooding in Texas, which has left at least 79 people dead — including at least 28 children.

In a now-deleted post that was shared by screenshots on X, Propst, under her old Facebook username Chris Tina, wrote about the flooding and expressed apparent ill-will toward MAGA voters in affected areas, suggesting they should ‘get what they voted for.’”

“May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry,” the original post read. “Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.”

A screenshot was shared on X and went viral very quickly, taking off especially on Sunday after a quote retweet from the Libs of TikTok account.

Many more messages followed, both in the originating thread and from other users. Late Saturday night, Blue Fish Pediatrics issued a statement that was shared on their social media accounts, and which at this time shows up as an alert message at the top of their website. The statement was also shared by head of the Texas Medical Board Dr. Sherif Zaafran.

The statement reads:

To Our Patients and Community

At Blue Fish Pediatrics, our hearts are broken for the families impacted by the devastating flooding in our Central Texas communities near Camp Mystic. Like so many across Texas and beyond, we are grieving with those who have lost loved ones and are praying fervently for all families still awaiting news.

We are aware that a personal social media comment by one of our physicians has caused significant hurt and outrage. The content and timing of that post do not reflect the values, standards, or mission of Blue Fish Pediatrics. We want to be clear: we do not support or condone any statement that politicizes tragedy, diminishes human dignity, or fails to clearly uphold compassion for every child and family, regardless of background or beliefs.

Our practice exists for one purpose only — to provide excellent, loving, and respectful care to all children and their families. Our patients come from every walk of life, every political belief, and every background, and we are honored to serve each of them with empathy and integrity.

In moments of crisis, we believe in unity over division, healing over judgment, and humility over rhetoric. We are taking this matter seriously, reviewing it internally, and have placed the physician on administrative leave.

In the meantime, we extend our full support to the families and the surrounding communities who are grieving, recovering, and searching for hope.

Sincerely,

Blue Fish Pediatrics Leadership Team

Propst’s profile page has been removed from both the Blue Fish Pediatrics website and the Memorial Hermann website. Memorial Hermann also posted a statement on X.

A former member of Houston’s Food Insecurity Board was also fired after she posted a racially tinged video about the victims of the flash flooding over the Fourth of July weekend, specifically calling out the young girls at Camp Mystic.

A former member of Houston’s Food Insecurity Board was fired after she posted a racially tinged video about the victims of the flash flooding over the Fourth of July weekend, specifically calling out the young girls at Camp Mystic.

“I know I’m probably gonna get cancelled for this, but Camp Mystic is a whites-only girls’ Christian camp. They don’t even have a token Asian, they don’t have a token black person. It is a all-white, white-only conservative Christian camp,” Perkins said in the video. “If you ain’t white, you ain’t right. You ain’t getting anywhere, you goin,’ period. And I think that context needs to be said in this matter.”

“It’s not to say that we don’t want the girls to be found, whatever girls that are missing or whatever right now, but you best believe, especially in today’s political climate, if this were a group of Hispanic girls — especially with them being in east Texas, it should be most likely Hispanic — if this were a group of Hispanic girls out there, this would not begin this type of coverage that they’re getting, no one would give a fuck, and all these white people, the parents of these little girls would be saying things like, ‘They need to be deported, they shouldn’t have been here in the first place,’ and yadda-yadda-yadda,” Perkins continued.

Perkins then claimed that the parents of the children would have been demanding that Hispanic children be deported before claiming that the camp was an “all-white, whites-only enclave.”

“Before y’all comment me, before y’all start leaving hate comments on my page about, oh, these are just kids and they don’t know no better, the parents of these children who are choosing — and it is a choice in 2025, it is definitely a freaking choice to go into east goddamn Texas and to make a all-white enclave, exclusionary, just for white people,” Perkins continued. “With all the black people in east Texas, with all the Hispanic people in east Texas, somehow, some way, you have carved out an all-white, whites-only enclave in east Texas for your white children. Yeah, I have a problem with that. I have a big problem with that.”

“Once again, this is no shade to the girls, I hope they all get found, but once again, y’all have to understand the climate that we’re living in. They want you to have sympathy for these people,” Perkins said. “They want you to get out of your bed and to come out of your home and to go find these people and to donate your money to go find these people. Meanwhile, they are deporting your family members. Meanwhile, they’re setting up concentration camps and prisons for your family members. And I need y’all to keep that in mind before y’all get out there and put on the rain boots and go find these little girls.”

“We ask for your continued prayers, respect and privacy for each of our families affected. May the Lord continue to wrap His presence around all of us,” said the camp, which describes itself on its website as a “private Christian summer camp for girls.”

As rescue teams continue to work around the clock to help rescue and recover flood victims, some Democrat officials have attempted to blame the Trump administration for the disaster.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday that “Unfortunately, in the wake of this once in a generation natural disaster, we have seen many falsehoods pushed by Democrats such as Senator Chuck Schumer and some members of the media.  

“Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie, and it serves no purpose during this time of national mourning,” she told reporters. 

“In the lead up to this tragic natural disaster, the National Weather Service did its job. Despite unprecedented rainfall, the National Weather Service executed timely and precise forecasts and warnings,” Leavitt added. 

“On July 3rd, the National Weather Service office in Austin [and] San Antonio, Texas, conducted forecast briefings for emergency management in the morning and issued a flood watch in the early afternoon,” Leavitt continued. “Flash flood warnings were also issued on the night of July 3rd and in the early morning of July 4th, giving preliminary lead times of more than three hours before flash flooding conditions occurred. The National Weather Service office in New Braunfels, which delivers forecasts for Austin, San Antonio and the surrounding areas, had extra staff on duty during the storms, despite claims of the contrary.”  

“So to any person who has deliberately lied about these facts surrounding this catastrophic event, you should be deeply ashamed,” Leavitt declared. “At this time, the administration’s focus will be giving on giving the victims and their communities the support they deserve during these recovery efforts in this tragic time.”
