91 dead from Texas floods, Trump expected to visit the area this week

The death toll from devastating floods in Texas has reached 91, the White House announced today, stressing that the situation remains critical in some regions of the southern American state.

During a press conference, Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt stated that President Donald Trump's administration is working closely with local and state authorities to deal with the crisis, while warning that heavy rains will continue in the coming days, increasing the risk to life and property.

Leavitt reacted sharply to accusations of delays in the federal response, calling these "distorted lies" and calling on critics to be "deeply ashamed" for spreading misinformation.

At the end of the statement, she announced that President Trump is expected to visit Texas later this week, most likely on Friday, to see the damage up close, meet survivors, and encourage emergency teams working on the ground.

Meanwhile, search and rescue operations are still ongoing and authorities continue to assist communities affected by the floods, while the meteorological situation remains unstable.
