    Good point.

    Similarly, FEMA had no business being in North Carolina at all, after the flooding. Didn't save any lives in advance.


    (That was back when the Trump guy you voted for was publicly lying about them having given all their money to illegal immigrants, if you remember. It was fun to watch him lie.)

    FEMA is needed.

    What needs to be addressed is the waste.

    Saving lives in advance? What is it you’re wanting them to do in St. Louis to save lives in advance?

    NC happened under Bidens watch. Why didn’t he have FEMA prevent the destruction. The only thing he did is have his FEMA bypass people in need who had Trump signs on their property.

    He did? Link?

    It's fun how you Trumpers just say things that aren't true and walk away from them when called out. Not sure if the forum rules allow referring to lying as lying any more ....

    It's also fun to see what type of posting your defense of the Trump has reduced you to. Please be sure to actively post when the dilapidated FEMA can't help people. (I'm guessing you'll have something to say about Biden. :))

    What a revelation: something happened during Biden's four years. Note that your claim was either false, made up, or misconstrued and when called on it.....your link was not correct. Was that intended?

    Link was correct, just the wrong state. So it happened in Florida not NC. Are you doubting that?

    A single Fema worker in Fl that made a ridiculous statement and was immediately fired is all the justification you need to shut down Fema?

    I assume this is your post because you have nothing else substantive to add.

    In any organization, half the workers are subpar. Waste and fraud.

    Texas, Florida and NC usually get most $ from FEMA. As I no longer reside in any of these states, I say let their taxpayers pay for duplicated resources and pay for it themselves
