Nope.
NPR is NOT the only radio station that carries weather alerts, you hopeless fucking moron.

Some? LOL
ALL radio stations carry 1.) weather reports and 2.) the emergency broadcasting service, you hopeless fucking weirdo.

So fucking what? You can't turn the radio dial a 10th of a turn without picking up a radio station anymore. It's not like the 70s
and before, dumb ass. Radio is big now.

Fuck, you're a special kind of stupid. The POOREST of the poor ALWAYS have smartphones. It might be ALL they have, but they have
them.
If you need a cite... look it up. When I lived in Mississippi, the dirt poorest walking down the road, was always yapping away on a
smartphone.

How many vs. those who do?
How many in Texas didn't have one?

LOL...
God DAMN, you just can't take a loss, can you?
Get help!
Emergency notification are all automatic on smartphones, unless you change the settings, and if they know how to change the
settings, they know how to "get the most out of them".
Idiot.

> notice app" is?
They come on most, if not ALL smartphones.
You pedantic little pussy.
Q: Do all smartphones come with emergency weather and "other" apps?
A: Yes, nearly all modern smartphones come with built-in capabilities to receive emergency weather and other critical alerts, and
many also include a pre-installed weather app.
PLONK!
> BTW, what's the name of the emergency notice app on your smartphone, Phil?
Nunya. :-)
Q: what emergency or weather app comes on my smartphone?
A: Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA):
This is a core Android feature, not specific to your brand of phone. Your phone will AUTOMATICALLY RECEIVE WIRELESS EMERGENCY
ALERTS (WEA), including:
Presidential Alerts
Imminent Threat Alerts (for severe weather like tornadoes, hurricanes, FLASH FLOODS, blizzards, and other dangers)
AMBER Alerts (for missing children)
Public Safety Alerts
You don't need a specific app for these; your phone's operating system handles their reception and display, often with a unique,
loud sound and vibration even if your phone is on silent. You can typically customize which types of these alerts you receive in
your phone's Settings > Safety and emergency > Wireless emergency alerts (or similar path depending on your Android version).
You're getting worse at this.
FEMA crap snipped, because FEMA has NOTHING to do with NWS or DoGE's cuts of the NWS.
PLONK!
PLONK!

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
