Darby Named to Disaster Committee

The floods that ravaged Texas over the July 4th weekend of 2025 were not just a natural disaster—they were a man-made catastrophe, born of negligence and betrayal. Homes were swept away, businesses obliterated, and lives shattered, all because those entrusted with safeguarding our state faltered in their duty. At the center of this outrage stands Drew Darby, a politician who has cloaked himself as a champion of the people while pursuing only his own selfish ends.

For nearly two decades, Darby has entrenched himself in the Texas House, wielding power not to uplift his constituents, but to feather his own nest. While our state’s infrastructure decayed and our flood defenses rotted, Darby was preoccupied with political maneuvering and personal enrichment. Critical measures to shield our communities from nature’s fury were sidelined, cast aside as inconvenient to his private ambitions and the whims of his inner circle.

Let’s set the record straight: this isn’t about Republicans or the energy sector. True Republicans—those who stand for limited government and personal accountability—are as furious about this as anyone. And the dedicated men and women of Texas’ energy industry, the backbone of our state and nation, deserve far better than to be tainted by Darby’s misdeeds. This is about one man’s failure, one man’s betrayal of the sacred trust bestowed upon him by the people of Texas.

Darby’s war chest overflows with cash from shadowy special interests—not the hardworking folks of Texas. His voting record reeks of favoritism toward his donors, leaving his constituents in the lurch. And now, in an act of sheer audacity that mocks both logic and decency, he’s been handed a seat on the House Select Committee on Disaster Preparedness and Flooding—the very body charged with unraveling the disaster he helped unleash.

This isn’t accountability—it’s a sham. How can a man so steeped in failure be entrusted to mend the chaos he fostered? It’s like handing the keys to the henhouse to the fox. Darby’s role on this committee spits in the face of every Texan who lost their home, their livelihood, or their loved one to the floodwaters.

We, the people of Texas, must rise and demand justice. We must unmask Darby for what he truly is—a corrupt politician who has trampled his oath and abandoned his constituents. We must force his removal from this committee and insist on a probe conducted with unflinching transparency and integrity. Our elected officials must be held to a standard that puts Texans first—no exceptions.

This fight transcends one man—it’s about the soul of our state. We cannot let the failures of yesterday shackle our tomorrow. The floods of July 2025 must ignite a fire in us all—a clarion call for every Texan who cherishes accountability, honor, and the unyielding power of the people to forge their own fate. Rise up, speak out, and reclaimwhat’s ours.
