'Bless Their Hearts': Texas Pediatrician Fired After Vile Post Wishing Death on Trump Voters in Deadly Floods

A pediatrician and a former city official face severe consequences for their shocking social media posts about the deadly floods in Texas that claimed dozens of lives.

The comments, laced with political venom, have ignited outrage, cost the physician her job, and prompted Houston’s mayor to take a stand.

Raging floodwaters devastated the area of Kerrville, Texas.

Devastating floods along Texas’s Guadalupe River have left communities reeling, with 89 confirmed dead, including 27 campers and counselors from Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp.

As rescue crews battle treacherous terrain and rising waters, two Houston figures have drawn condemnation for callous social media remarks politicizing the catastrophe.

First, a Houston pediatrician, Dr. Christina Propst, sparked fury with a now-deleted Facebook post that appeared to wish harm on Trump supporters in flood-ravaged Kerr County.

"May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry. Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change," wrote Propst, who used the monker Chris Tina online. "May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts."

The post, shared widely after a screenshot by Libs of TikTok, led to Propst’s termination from Blue Fish Pediatrics.

The practice issued a statement condemning Propst's remarks, assuring the company stands against politicizing tragedy, emphasizing their commitment to compassion for all.

"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," Blue Pediatrics said. "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."

The practice later confirmed Propst’s termination.

Houston pediatrician Dr. Christina Propst came under fire for a now-deleted social media post on the devastating Texas floods.

Memorial Hermann Health System, affiliated with Blue Fish, also denounced her remarks, stating, "This provider is not employed by Memorial Hermann. We have zero tolerance for such rhetoric which does not reflect the mission, vision or values of our system."

The Texas Medical Board, led by Dr. Sherif Zaafran, signaled potential scrutiny, with Zaafran posting on X, "There is no place for politicization. The entire focus needs to be on looking for survivors. Any complaints we may receive will be thoroughly investigated."

No formal investigation has been announced.

Meanwhile, a former Houston official, Sade Perkins, added fuel to the controversy with TikTok videos targeting Camp Mystic, where 27 young lives were lost.

Perkins, previously appointed to the city’s Food Insecurity Board, made racially charged claims about the camp’s demographics and the media’s coverage.

“I know I’m going to get cancelled for this, but Camp Mystic is a white-only girls’ Christian camp. They don’t even have a token Asian," Perkins said. "They don’t have a token Black person. It’s an all-white, white-only conservative Christian camp. If you ain’t white you ain’t right, you ain’t gettin’ in, you ain’t goin’. Period. If this were a group of Hispanic girls out there, this would not be getting this type of coverage that they’re getting, no one would give a f–k, 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 yada yada yada."

The floods have killed at least 89 people, including children at summer camps. Officials said the death toll was sure to rise.

Houston Mayor John Whitmire, calling Perkins’ comments "deeply inappropriate," confirmed he would not reappoint her to any city role.

Perkins’ term on the Food Insecurity Board ended in January.

The backlash against both women has been fierce, with X users demanding Propst’s medical license be revoked and condemning Perkins’ remarks as divisive.

The floods have prompted urgent searches for 41 missing individuals, including 10 girls and a counselor from Camp Mystic.

Governor Greg Abbott warned of more heavy rains through Tuesday, exacerbating risks in saturated areas.

President Donald Trump signed a major disaster declaration for Kerr County and plans to visit Friday, stating, "It’s a horrible thing that took place, absolutely horrible."

Authorities face mounting questions about preparedness and warning systems in a region prone to flooding, as residents salvage belongings and recount narrow escapes.

The left’s obsession with ideology poisons everything, even a tragedy that’s taken 89 lives, including kids at a summer camp.

As search teams press on and families mourn, the words of two women have deepened the pain, reminding us that even in our darkest hours, division can cast a long shadow.

For now, the focus remains on the missing and the rebuilding ahead.
