Armed Militia "hunting FEMA" causes hurricane responders to evacuate—report
Federal emergency workers were told to evacuate Rutherford County, North Carolina, on October 12 over safety concern.
"FEMA also been accused by former president Donald Trump, the Republican nominee, and other Republicans of not being able to respond well enough to Helene because it had diverted disaster relief funds to help migrants.
That is not true, because while FEMA administers the Shelter and Services Program, funding for it comes from a separate pot of money funded by Congress for U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Other false claims that have circulated include that people taking federal relief money could see their land seized or that that $750 is the most they will ever get to rebuild. FEMA has pushed back against the false claims and conspiracy theories, setting up a page on its website to combat misinformation and rumors."

Honestly, states like Florida should be ineligible for federal aid across the board
Then we would need a border wall to keep Repubs out of good states. Repubs come swarming across borders in massive numbers and vote for the very same policies that made their own states fail.
The problem is Georgia and Louisiana are just as bad...
Georgia has been turning around in recent years.
Also, I saw fewer confederate battle flags in Atlanta than I did in Indianapolis. Fuck Indianapolis.
Build the wall and make them pay for it?
I'd like to see Dems plop down a bill that says if you vote against FEMA for states affected by a disaster, any aid your district/state receive comes with labels that say "Your name of your party affiliation declined to fund the program that is providing you this item/service"
