[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I can see the point of this. Just because something is an unfortunate natural event doesn’t mean it’s a federal disaster. They need to draw the line somewhere. If there’s a hurricane in Florida that affects only a few people then I’d expect the state to handle it themselves too.[/quote]

If this is a disaster that would, at any time in history prior to January 20th, 2025, merit federal assistance, then this is not a good development.  Whether Arkansas is red or blue, whether this is a small disaster or large.  [/quote]

That is not how the US operates anymore. [/quote]

No.  This is not the new normal. [b] It is a blip.

We are Americans, not a single tech bro and some fringe who wrote a wish list last year.  I will call lots of senators, mine and others, and remind them of this.[/quote]

I’m all with you on calling/writing GOP senators, which I’ve been doing, but we’ve got to tell the truth here. It’s not a blip. If it were, it wouldn’t be this big. This is who we are. It’s ugly, but a lot of POC understood this. It’s time we do too. [/quote]
