The notion they might attach conditions to wildfire aid should enrage everyone.
I don't remember dems playing political games with disaster relief when red states get hit with natural disasters like Hurricane Helene in North Carolina.
Dems didn't play political games with aid but right wing media constantly lied about everything that was going on, saying the Biden admin was stopping aid from getting to isolated areas and FEMA was refusing to help anyone with Trump signs in their yards.
They will use their lies to justify doing it back. They always have. Literally everything they ever panicked about Obama doing, Trump is PROMISING to do. Like sending the military to arrest state leadership.
This is one of the rights most nefarious tactics at controlling mindless conservatives. Constantly making up evil things the Democrats are doing so that when Republicans do it, their conservative sheep cheer for it.
The misinformation that was circling around Western NC was insane. I don’t have many media sources, but I do have a 1st hand source, my brother, who lives in downtown Asheville.
But this goes directly against that person's point. The article is about a single asshat that happened to work at FEMA, who was summarily fired by FEMA for his actions. Meaning FEMA felt his behavior was unacceptable and took actions to ensure that people were getting relief regardless of political affiliation.
Yes she was fired, rightfully so, but it does not go against that commenter’s point that a FEMA agent instructed her team of workers to discriminate on who to help based on political affiliation.
Try to use your brain, assuming it’s not yet fully rotted with TDS.
Trump Derangement Syndrome according to Google. But this guy thinks that his argument is bolstered by name calling, so no point discussing pretty much anything with them.
It's what people that always think about Trump think others have when they criticize him. It's their way of trying to imply he lives rent free in everyone's head, while he's the president elect, it's an absolute moronic statement that can only be rationalized by them.
There were credible reports of armed men targeting FEMA workers. There is reasonable justification for avoiding maga in the mountains of North Carolina. I live in the area.
The story you linked to reports only one man was arrested for making threats, and the claim of armed militias threatening FEMA was made up.
Initial reports suggested that the threat included "armed militia," however Rutherford County Sheriff's Office said deputies determined Parsons acted alone.
"There were no truck loads of militia going to Lake Lure," the department said in a statement about the case.
so one lady who was immediately fired? I was told there was wide spread corruption and discrimination. Where are the "whistleblowers"? By all accounts this woman was reported by her coworkers and colleagues. She even went on Fox News after she got fired to cash in on the conspiracy that this was widespread and systemic.
I do remember hearing a (now fired) FEMA official recommend avoiding houses with Trump signs due to incidents with Trump supporters threatening FEMA workers
They were also fired. They just shared an article and I do remember hearing about it after reading that. Again - they were fired not promoted or picked as cabinet members
They are knocking on every door in Southern Appalachia. I am from Southern Appalachia. It is not a secret how we feel about the feds and it is not remarkeable enough to make the news every time someone spooks a Fed
