A Buffalo News cartoonist has come under scrutiny for releasing an illustration that appears to insult the victims of the Texas flash flood disaster. The cartoon, drawn by Adam Zyglis, depicts a drowning man wearing a Make America Great Again (MAGA) hat with a thought bubble reading, "Govt is the problem, not the solution," implying that Trump supporters got what they deserved.

At least 109 people have been confirmed dead following the July 4 catastrophic flash flooding of the Guadalupe River in Kerr County. Many of the victims are children who were attending Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp, and authorities said dozens of people remain missing. Camp counselors wrote girls' names on their bodies in case they were swept away by the flood.




According to his personal website, Adam Zyglis is a Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist for the Buffalo News. He has been with the paper as a full-time staffer since 2004, and his illustrations have appeared in additional outlets such as The New York Times, Washington Post, and USA Today.

The majority of Zyglis' recent illustrations, which can be observed on his Instagram account, take aim at the Trump administration's policies, with several drawings portraying President Trump, his supporters, and US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in a volatile and negative manner. Zyglis appears to lean far left on the political spectrum based on his artwork.

Some examples are included below:








Zyglis is not the only individual facing scrutiny. A Houston pediatrician has been terminated from her position after saying that the Kerr County flood victims "got what they voted for."





Despite the hateful rhetoric coming from Democrats, several Americans are being hailed as heroes for working around the clock to rescue dozens of flash flood victims. This includes Scott Ruskan, a 26-year-old Coast Guard petty officer, who has reportedly saved more than 165 people from the area of Camp Mystic.

The Trump administration has provided national relief aid to Kerr County, and Texas Governor Gregg Abbott declared a national emergency as rescue 24/7 rescue missions continue.
