And all the Florida Republicans voted against disaster aid right before the state was hit by two catastrophic hurricanes |
+1. Keep trump far away from decision making of any consequence. Stick to the golf course. |
The lack of funding for FEMA and the vilification of feds is having a predictable effect. FEMA doesn’t have enough staff available to send to Florida. They are stretched too thin and scrabbling to find people. Since DeSantis doesn’t value federal disaster assistance, it will be an opportunity for him to show the rest of us the way. But of course this is what Florida voted for: no taxes or regulations. Everyone takes care of themselves. NYT: But FEMA is stretched not just by the brutal aftermath of Hurricane Helene, which killed more than 200 people and destroyed sections of western North Carolina. Its staff is also responding to flooding and landslides in Vermont, tornadoes in Kansas, the aftermath of Tropical Storm Debby in New York and Georgia and the Watch Fire in Arizona. |
I think you mean everything hurricane milton touches it destroys. Once you feel that touch, you'll wish you had all the friends you could get. |
It’s a good thing that Desantis banished the term Climate Change from all Florida government communications. I’m surprised he isn’t telling people they don’t need to evacuate because it is all a hoax. |
The GOP’s mantra has been to shrink the government so it’s small enough to drown in a bathtub. It’s too bad that the people who voted for the GOP can’t be the only ones to experience the world they voted for. |
Maybe Desantis’s plan is to let Milton kill as many people as possible so they have fewer people to take care of afterwards. |
Florida's government is certainly going to be drowning. Can't speak for anyone else tho. |
Is it small enough to drown in a flood? |
The good people of Tampa had enough sense to elect a democrat mayor. Hope they listen to her. |
He doesn't like coastal elites. |
What is our current debt? |
Florida's fearless leader DeSanctimonious refused to speak with President. Biden or VP Harris. He is such a huge derriere. |
