This is a topic dear to me as someone who has witnessed, benefited from, and is appreciative of all the help we received from President Trump and generous people on the mainland US. As residents of the US Virgin Islands we know of corruption in PR and knew they had misused aid; either to paint POTUS as evil OR for black market profit OR both.

PR Governor Fires Head of Emergency Management Over Unused Aid

quote:

Folks, this is alarming. An explosive video from Puerto Rico shows a massive warehouse of emergency hurricane relief supplies discovered highlighting emergency supplies delivered in the aftermath of hurricane Maria that were never distributed.


quote:

What has been found here is a massive storage facility. I would estimate the size of the warehouse around 200,000 sq ft (minimum) based on video and exterior truck bays. The video shows thousands of pallets, double and triple stacked, of key and essential emergency supplies. Bottled water, shelf-stable food, diapers, baby formula, blankets, tarps, tents, propane grills, propane, emergency lights, batteries, flashlights, emergency radios, potable water cans and much, much more. To give you an idea of the scale, there’s at least 100 semi truck loads of supplies in this video, in this single warehouse. Logistically each trailer would haul 22/24 single stack pallets, or 66/72 triple stack. With more than a dozen staged pallet jacks, this warehouse is holding serious money. It is unfathomable these supplies were not distributed; and worse yet were likely being re-sold on the black market. These emergency supplies and materials were delivered in 2017. On December 28th, 2019, a magnitude 4.7 earthquake hit Puerto Rico and President Trump authorized an additional $8.2 billion in aid….


Too bad that few outside TD and CTH will ever be aware of this.

Again thanks to all of you and President Trump from me, my wife, and Molly the Wonder Dog.

Doesn't shock me in the least. I have a manager on my team from PR. His brother and parents still live there. He tells me stories of the corruption there. Pretty disheartening.

This just infuriates me. Withholding aid from people in need for political reasons, there is a special place in hell for them.

That's why. The problem is people can see right through that. A person may look intelligent (because of stereotypes) , but when they start speaking, the glasses don't help.

You can’t hide 100 truckloads of aid for years without a lot more than one person knowing about it, you are looking at a big conspiracy here.

Yeah! 100 semi trucks in a disaster doesn’t go unnoticed without some good effort to hide them.
Remember all that water left at the end of some runway too.
Heads need to roll.

It was only discovered after looking for post earthquake damage. They have had a swarm of quakes recently.

P.S. Now they are blaming oil drilling/exploration along the fault lines that exist down here.

El Nuevo Dia and CNN have stories on it.

At any rate, the corruption and incompetence that abounds is tragic.

They need to run ads in central Florida so the 1,000,000 plus PRs now living there understand that Trump did his part, you can bet the dems will be pumping those ads of the same stupid mayor and saying how Trump left them hanging.

Still pisses me off that Ryan and his hedge fund boys made a mint off that last bailout.
