The White House is defending the National Weather Service and accusing some Democrats of playing politics in the wake of devastating floods in Texas.

Sen. Chuck Schumer is pressing the NWS’s watchdog to probe whether Trump’s cuts worsened the recent catastrophe.

"It's not community to community. It's a national system," Sen. Maria Cantwell said on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan."
