    He literally just wants to avoid paying for CA wildfire recovery.

    The hilarious thing is that the biggest FEMA beneficiaries are red states and these climate change related disasters are externalities of the way red states do business.

      how many states have fully-staffed and funded equivalents ready to deploy on a moment’s notice to a large-scale emergency? probably count 'em all on one hand, while simultaneously giving lord diaper the bird.

      ‘federal’ assistance will be there in time for hurricane season.

      This would just help him avoid having to help every state. He would still make special arrangements to help the people who helped him. He’s entirely corrupt.

      Yeah, and those states will continue to get that aid when they need it.

      Really dont see why this is hard to understand.
