Au contraire, mon frere.

I voted against Trump, sure, but I didn't vote for this sort of reckless lack of leadership, and complete disregard of the well-being of real persons.

If you didn’t vote for trump, you effectively voted for this. That’s how it works. Ain’t it a bitch. Your rationalization notwithstanding.

Imagine sending $100B to a borderline 3rd world country 5,000 miles away, and then denying aid to your own people living and breathing in a literal toxic environment.

How much FEMA money did Flint or Jackson get


quote:

President Barack Obama soon declared a state of emergency in Michigan, authorizing the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide up to $5 million in federal assistance.
Flint got the emergency declaration but didn't get the disaster declaration, which would have given them significantly more federal funding.


quote:

The Biden administration late Tuesday authorized the Department of Homeland Security and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to “coordinate all disaster relief efforts” to alleviate the hardship and suffering caused by the failure of Jackson’s water supply system.

The federal government will pay 75 percent of all costs related to the emergency for the next 90 days, the announcement said.
Jackson got the disaster declaration; they got massive federal funding.
