Is the below trash to you?

You’re right, we should have kept the people in there that skipped over white people’s houses for relief

Ah yes, Reuters, a bastion of mainstream truth and balanced, fair narrative -I mean "reporting."

Give me a break. What retards believe this shite, as quoted in the thread title,

New head of FEMA, not aware the country had a hurricane season

UltimaParadox
Oh of course, this retard, who even took the bullshite article out of context to make up an ever better lie.

FEMA should be disbanded and its doors shuttered and the money given to the states, and anyone who thinks differently has never had to deal with the inept, insufferable, incapable and corrupt sons of bitches. Abolish that bloated corpse of federal bureaucracy yesterday.

Surrounds himself with too many morons that are all talk and get nothing done. Sounds like the career RINOs.

Found him after serving over 20 years as a Marine officer including 3 tours in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Africa including being awarded a Bronze Star for combat operations in the Anbar Province, Iraq.

When you follow TDS9 and Ultima for facts…
Honestly there is not much else negative to say when you do that.

Dems doing the same BS they have done for 8 years, and some still fall for it or knowingly push it here due to TDS.

The Department of Homeland Security issued a statement to multiple outlets Monday clarifying the director's comments as a joke.

"Despite meanspirited attempts to falsely frame a joke as policy, there is no uncertainty about what FEMA will be doing this Hurricane Season. FEMA is laser focused on disaster response, and protecting the American people," a DHS spokesperson said in a statement to NBC News.

We do not count on the federal government during hurricane season. We rely on state government. And it works quite well.

Not true. The rank and file workers can get things done. It's the politicians and political appointments that F things up, play games, and get in the way.

You sure about that? The Gulf states get the lion's share of FEMA aid.

Well if Reuters reported it, it’s absolutely 100% accurate and truthful.

This man's joke is mocking the environmental genocide we are watching unfold right now with the dismantling of FEMA.

You sure about that?
Yes I am. Native of Louisiana and have lived in Florida since 2017. Have a masters degree in Emergency Management. Initial response is from state and local resources. FEMA only arrives after the heavy lifting is done. That is how the Emergency Support Functions of the National Response Framework is designed to work.

Have you ever even been through a hurricane before?

Interesting. So, FEMA doesn't show up at all pre-storm or until after all the initial work is done?
