FEMA Head Axed.....here comes hurricane season.

FEMA: Federal Emergency Management Agency acting Administrator Cameron Hamilton was fired Thursday. The nation’s disaster agency, which Trump has suggested abolishing, is now without a top official three weeks before the start of the Atlantic hurricane season and as Congress scrutinizes FEMA’s proposed budget. Hamilton was informed of his termination by Deputy Homeland Security Secretary Troy Edgar and Corey Lewandowski, a longtime Trump adviser and informal chief of staff to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Politico’s E&E News reported.

Hamilton was fired a day after he told a House Appropriations subcommittee, “I do not believe it is in the best interests of the American people to eliminate the Federal Emergency Management Agency.”

Reacting to the firing, Rep. Bennie Thompson (Miss.), the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, said in a statement that Hamilton bucked his bosses to advocate for the agency. “Clearly this brainless idea — that Trump and Kristi Noem keep touting — is not faring well even in MAGA world,” Thompson said.

Yes that's right up there with him denying FEMA Aid in California during the wildfires and saying he's going to cut it when hurricane season comes along and leave it up to the state the states that cannot afford the budget and that is why they apply for federal funding let's put him in the middle of a hurricane and then when he's destroyed tell him sorry Charlie no funds
You voted for this. Harris and Trump have the same politics, clearly you spent it on war because that's your bipartisan consensus. Us leftists don't have any party that's getting votes.

So...we should be hearing the cult scream about how those red states, always hit hardest by hurricanes and tornadoes, will suffer with out immediate relief. That $700 that they complained wasn't enough when biden was potus, will not be available at all.
Im going to hold my breath until i hear a cultist complain.

He did a really good job last hurricane season, he funded illegal immigrants before US citizens
@Patriot96 it's bipartisan and unanimous that Americans all hate immigrants and have no plans for new infrastructure.
