Help the illegals before the flood victims

[NoBody]

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA’s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.

Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."

This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.

"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
… is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."

LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS

"And it’s not just hurricanes and wildfires – also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."

However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA’s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."

Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

Perhaps the money being spent on illegals should support the taxpayers
first.

Perhaps you should read the words of that well-known left-wing source,
Forbes:

'Trump FEMA Claim Debunked: Agency Not Running Out Of Money Because Of
Migrants'

<https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2024/10/04/trump-fema-claim-debunked-agency-not-running-out-of-money-because-of-migrants/>

'FEMA says on its website that any claims that disaster funds were
rerouted to border-related efforts are “false,” noting the Disaster
Relief Fund is a dedicated fund for managing disasters and money meant
for the fund “has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.”

Congress determines how much money goes to FEMA’s disaster fund, and the
fund faces issues after lawmakers declined to allocate additional
funding for FEMA’s efforts in the stopgap funding bill it passed last
month, only extending FEMA’s existing funding level and allowing it to
draw from $20 billion in funds more quickly.'

That line in there: "declined to allocate"?

That was a link to this:

'A pair of destructive hurricanes along the Gulf Coast, an explosion of
wildfires across the West and urgent pleas from Democrats and the White
House this month were not enough to persuade Congress to secure new
funding for disaster victims.'

<https://www.eenews.net/articles/lawmakers-stunned-as-disaster-funds-left-out-of-stopgap-bill-2/>

So, bottom line:

FEMA has a budget provided by congress and has not used any money meant
for disaster relief on immigrants of any kind.

Department of Homeland Security Announces $300 Million in Direct
Funding to Communities Receiving Migrants and $340 Million for a New
Competitive Awards Process

WASHINGTON -- Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),
through FEMA and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP),
announced $300 million in grants through the Shelter and Services
Program (SSP), which was authorized by Congress to support communities
that are providing services to migrants. Two hundred seventy-five
million dollars will be distributed in the first allocation, and the
remaining $25 million will be allocated later in the year to
accommodate evolving operational requirements. The initial funding
will be available to 55 grant recipients for temporary shelter and
other eligible costs associated with migrants awaiting the outcome of
their immigration proceedings. Additionally, DHS is announcing $340.9
million through the Shelter and Services Program-Competitive grant
program to be allocated before the end of this fiscal year.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

Republicans were slashing FEMA
funds as recently as last month.



Lawmakers stunned as disaster funds
left out of stopgap bill
09/26/2024

Congress approved a funding patch
Wednesday without supplemental
disaster money, even as Hurricane
Helene bears down on Florida.

"The right-wingers here, the MAGA
crowd, even after disasters happen,
they have opposed disaster aid for
communities in need," said a
frustrated Rep. Kathy Castor (D-Fla.).

"I’m fearful of it because we’ve
lived through it a number of times,"
she added. "Even members from Florida
after a disaster have opposed initial
aid going in, and it’s not the way to
have a government function, or FEMA
function. It’s not right."

A pair of destructive hurricanes
along the Gulf Coast, an explosion
of wildfires across the West and
urgent pleas from Democrats and
the White House this month were
not enough to persuade Congress
to secure new funding for disaster
victims.

FEMA doesn't need money. They just need Trump to break out his magic marker and
move the hurricane where it won't hurt anybody.
--
Although Trump is not among Project 2025'- 34 authors, more than half are appointees
and staff from his time as president; the words "Trump" and "Trump
Administration" appear 300 times in its pages. At least 140 former Trump
officials are involved in Project 2025, according to a CNN tally. It’s
reasonable to expect that a second Trump presidency would follow many of
the project’s recommendations.


Two more reasons to not vote for Trump in 29 days.


34) Trump ordered the Department of Justice to
falsely claim that the election was corrupt.

35) Trump and his allies used threats to pressure state leaders
in Arizona and Georgia to falsify the election results.

Trump couldn't reroute Helene, though he could pay a visit to interfere with

destroyed building. And have his campaign manager create a GoFundMe
unattached to any charity (where will the money go?) and a list of top
donors that DOES NOT include Trump himself. And social media Trump dupes are

You're the one who said the media is bought and paid for...

...and did you actually READ the article:


'Unlike many politicians who release their tax returns, the Trumps
didn’t list the recipients of their cash donations, and listing
recipients isn’t required. '

So we don't actually know whether he was actually giving to charity, do we?

'Some of the donations were very small, well under $100. In 2015, the
Trumps reported a $3 donation by the Mar-a-Lago Club, and in 2016 they
reported an $8 donation by TNGC Pine Hill.

In its summary review of the Trumps’ returns, the staff of Congress’
nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation suggested the Internal Revenue
Service check the Trumps’ donations to see if they had proper
substantiation. The rules are very strict, and many donors don’t fulfill
them.

The joint committee’s report, released earlier this week, said questions
about a $21.1 million tax deduction involving Mr. Trump’s Seven Springs
estate in Westchester County, N.Y., still weren’t resolved, and that the
IRS had debated whether to pursue a penalty against Mr. Trump for
overstating the value of that tax benefit, which was considered a
charitable donation.'

In its summary review of the Trumps? returns, the staff of Congress?
nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation suggested the Internal Revenue
Service check the Trumps? donations to see if they had proper
substantiation. The rules are very strict, and many donors don?t fulfill
them.
The joint committee?s report, released earlier this week, said questions
about a $21.1 million tax deduction involving Mr. Trump?s Seven Springs
estate in Westchester County, N.Y., still weren?t resolved, and that the
IRS had debated whether to pursue a penalty against Mr. Trump for
overstating the value of that tax benefit, which was considered a
charitable donation.'

Trump owns you.

LOL!

I laugh at how many of you he owns too.

FEMA doesn't need money. They just need Trump to break out his magic
marker and move the hurricane where it won't hurt anybody.

Trump couldn't reroute Helene, though he could pay a visit to interfere with
disaster responders and have his people build a "wall" out of bricks from a
destroyed building. And have his campaign manager create a GoFundMe
unattached to any charity (where will the money go?) and a list of top
donors that DOES NOT include Trump himself. And social media Trump dupes are
praising that likely grift to high heaven.
And now Milton is coming for Florida. Why can't it take out Mar-a-Lardo?

I wonder if anyone here can actually cite a case of Trump donating any
money to anyone.

Trump doesn't write a lot of checks.

He gladly accepts campaign contributions, payments for his dumbass products,
donations to his failing "Truth" "Social", women throwing themselves at his
porcine body, GoFundMes for this legal bills, dark money donations....

What's good for Trump is good for America :-D

Asshole.

Trump couldn't reroute Helene, though he could pay a visit to interfere with
disaster responders and have his people build a "wall" out of bricks from a
destroyed building. And have his campaign manager create a GoFundMe
unattached to any charity (where will the money go?) and a list of top
donors that DOES NOT include Trump himself. And social media Trump dupes are
praising that likely grift to high heaven.
And now Milton is coming for Florida. Why can't it take out Mar-a-Lardo?

At least Trump showed up. At least he is doing something. He's not at
the beach.

Both Harris and Biden showed up, doofus.

Late.

--
Although Trump is not among Project 2025'- 34 authors, more than half are appointees
and staff from his time as president; the words "Trump" and "Trump
Administration" appear 300 times in its pages. At least 140 former Trump
officials are involved in Project 2025, according to a CNN tally. It’s
reasonable to expect that a second Trump presidency would follow many of
the project’s recommendations.


Two more reasons to not vote for Trump in 29 days.


34) Trump ordered the Department of Justice to
falsely claim that the election was corrupt.

35) Trump and his allies used threats to pressure state leaders
in Arizona and Georgia to falsify the election results.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

'FEMA says on its website that any claims that disaster funds were
rerouted to border-related efforts are ?false,? noting the Disaster
Relief Fund is a dedicated fund for managing disasters and money meant
for the fund ?has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.?
Congress determines how much money goes to FEMA?s disaster fund, and the
fund faces issues after lawmakers declined to allocate additional
funding for FEMA?s efforts in the stopgap funding bill it passed last
month, only extending FEMA?s existing funding level and allowing it to
draw from $20 billion in funds more quickly.'
That line in there: "declined to allocate"?

FEMA has a budget provided by congress and has not used any money meant
for disaster relief on immigrants of any kind.

We've had worse hurricanes seasons in the past yet never ran out of
money. Either establish that the budget has been cut or tell us where
the money went.
Oh and don't believe a damn thing FEMA says.

The money was already there.
The democrats raided it to pay for illegal migrant freebies.

FFS. The Forbes article debunked that lie.

Immaterial.
FEMA is running out of money due to supporting illegal migrants.

Repeating the lie doesn't make it the truth. FEMA is running out of
money for disaster relief, but not because money was used for
unauthorized migrants.

Department of Homeland Security Announces $300 Million in Direct
Funding to Communities Receiving Migrants and $340 Million for a New

SFW. That money was not stolen from monies reserved for disaster relief.

Because FEMA took funds reserved for disaster relief and realocated it
for the illegals doesn't change the fact that there's less money for
disaster relief.

They simply did not do that.

They were given the task of administering the distribution of funds
allocated by congress for migrant support.

Congress specifies what money goes into the Disaster Relief Fund. DHS is
not authorized to divert money into the Relief Fund. Thus, the money is
not fungible from DHS's perspective (you can blame Congress if you wish).

money.  Either establish that the budget has been cut or tell

the money went.
Oh and don't believe a damn thing FEMA says.

The money was already there.

FFS. The Forbes article debunked that lie.

Immaterial.
FEMA is running out of money due to supporting illegal migrants.

Repeating the lie doesn't make it the truth. FEMA is running out of
money for disaster relief, but not because money was used for
unauthorized migrants.

Department of Homeland Security Announces $300 Million in Direct

SFW. That money was not stolen from monies reserved for disaster relief.

Look up the word fungible.

Congress specifies what money goes into the Disaster Relief Fund. DHS is
not authorized to divert money into the Relief Fund. Thus, the money is
not fungible from DHS's perspective (you can blame Congress if you wish).

So why is it that only the people on our side of this argument can
produce specific cites?

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

That would explain Trump's accusation that Biden raided FEMA to house immigrants
- it's what Trump did.

So, yes, every Republican accusation *IS* a confession.
--
Although Trump is not among Project 2025'- 34 authors, more than half are appointees
and staff from his time as president; the words "Trump" and "Trump
Administration" appear 300 times in its pages. At least 140 former Trump
officials are involved in Project 2025, according to a CNN tally. It’s
reasonable to expect that a second Trump presidency would follow many of
the project’s recommendations.


Two more reasons to not vote for Trump in 31 days.


30) Even while he was being investigated for trying
to get Ukraine to interfere in the U.S. election, Trump
publicly called for China to interfere in the election.
Trump: "China should start an investigation into the Bidens."

31) Long before election day Trump started making
false claims that the election would be rigged.

We've had worse hurricanes seasons in the past yet never ran out of

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA’s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
… is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it’s not just hurricanes and wildfires – also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA’s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."

Congress sets the budget for FEMA and congress gave them the budget they

Idiot.

Illegal migrants receive among other things:

1. Free cellphones.
2. Room/board in 4 star hotels.
3. Debit cards.
4. Medical care.
5. Education.

etc.

People are better off being an illegal migrant to the USA than a legal citizen
suffering due to a hurricane.

All of that aid should be cutoff and the money used to help the citizens of the
USA who are suffering right now.

Get off your throne and realize that Biden/Harris favors the illegal migrants
over the legal citizens and if you can't see this then you are an idiot.

Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of

of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."

Perhaps the money being spent on illegals should support the taxpayers
first.

I have been saying this for a long time. This is just another section of
Biden/Harris' "America Last Program".
It could not be any clearer.
The Democrats don't care about the American citizens but instead prefer to
coddle the illegal migrants.
And it is positively disgusting.

I know you have a problem understand nuance, but this isn't that.
Congress sets the budget for FEMA and congress gave them the budget they
currently have.
The Republicans have the majority in the House and it's basically a tie
in the Senate.
So if FEMA hasn't been given enough money to do their job, you know
where to look.

Idiot.
1. Free cellphones.
2. Room/board in 4 star hotels.
3. Debit cards.
4. Medical care.
5. Education.
etc.
People are better off being an illegal migrant to the USA than a legal citizen
suffering due to a hurricane.
All of that aid should be cutoff and the money used to help the citizens of the
USA who are suffering right now.
Get off your throne and realize that Biden/Harris favors the illegal migrants
over the legal citizens and if you can't see this then you are an idiot.

What they get depends on money allocated...

...BY CONGRESS.

""DHS Chief Alejandro Mayorkas Says FEMA Out of Money; It Spent Wildly on
Migrants"

Because FEMA can only spend funds as they have been allocated, doofus.

Congress allocated moneys for migrants.

And that bucket is separate from the money they allocated for disaster
relief:

'There is no evidence that disaster relief funds were used on immigrants
in the U.S. illegally. FEMA disaster money comes from dedicated funds
that cannot be used for other purposes.'

<https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/false-claims-fema-disaster-funds-migrants-pushed-trump-rcna173955>

'Trump and his allies appear to be conflating two different funds. FEMA
has dedicated disaster relief money that cannot be used for other
purposes. Separately, it was tasked by Congress in 2022 to disseminate
money from Customs and Border Protection to help communities that
received influxes of migrants.'

Get the point yet?

I have been saying this for a long time. This is just another section of
Biden/Harris' "America Last Program".
It could not be any clearer.
The Democrats don't care about the American citizens but instead prefer to
coddle the illegal migrants.
And it is positively disgusting.

I know you have a problem understand nuance, but this isn't that.
Congress sets the budget for FEMA and congress gave them the budget they
currently have.
The Republicans have the majority in the House and it's basically a tie
in the Senate.
So if FEMA hasn't been given enough money to do their job, you know
where to look.

Idiot.
1. Free cellphones.
2. Room/board in 4 star hotels.
3. Debit cards.
4. Medical care.
5. Education.
etc.
People are better off being an illegal migrant to the USA than a legal citizen
suffering due to a hurricane.
All of that aid should be cutoff and the money used to help the citizens of the
USA who are suffering right now.
Get off your throne and realize that Biden/Harris favors the illegal migrants
over the legal citizens and if you can't see this then you are an idiot.

What they get depends on money allocated...
...BY CONGRESS.

Ok. If you're going to rely on this as your claim of fact, please
The amount allocated to illegals via FEMA
The amount dedicated to natural disaster relief via FEMA. Ensure you
include previous years amounts.
Failure to provide this data is your admission you are lying.

It's all here, albeit carefully buried.

It's called SSP.

Implicit your claim that it's "carefully buried" there is a claim that
you, yourself found it.
So if you did, why do you want all of us to go looking for it?

So he did you the favor of doing YOUR homework and you berate him for
it.
Typical lib.

How is it MY homework to find support for his claim that:

"It's all here, albeit carefully buried."?

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

more than our own citizens who are suffering through a disaster?

Just in NYC alone it cost almost $400 per day to take care of an illegal
migrant.

And people in the disaster area's get a $750 check.
That's an insult.

You can split hairs all you like but people are dying and according to those

lackluster as well.
Proof that Biden/Harris don't give a shit about those people.

Additionally, FEMA funds get reallocated to different buckets all the time.
It's STOP.
Jim Jordan and a former head of FEMA made mention of this several times
yesterday.

Call your congressperson to verify.
I did, and it's true.
And once again, flipping the script isn't working.

The point as you, Skeeter, Alleycat and others have made clear is that WHY are
illegal immigrants given so many freebies and our own citizens suffering and
dying after a disaster are not?

And why does it take 10 days to begin mobilizing helicopters and so forth to
reach "inaccessible areas" while private organizations are able to begin on day
one?

Answer is the government is inept, poorly run and Biden/Kamala don't give a
hoot about these people.

Try watching the heartbreaking videos showing people begging for help claiming
they have not seen nor heard from FEMA.

This is why I call democrats DEMONS.
They are evil.



It's a disgrace and Biden/Harris own it.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

'Aides Say Trump Resisted Sending Federal Funds After California Wildfires

He changed his mind after being shown data that his supporters in the
state had been affected, the former officials said. One called his
approach “red states vs. blue states.”

...

Ms. Troye said the episode, which was previously reported by E&E News,
was not the only time Mr. Trump resisted providing disaster aid to
Democratic-leaning regions. She mentioned his response to sending aid to
Puerto Rico after it was hit by hurricanes.
“We saw numerous instances — this was just one — where it was
politicized,” Ms. Troye said in an interview regarding the California
episode, adding, “It was red states vs. blue states.”'

<https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/04/us/politics/trump-wildfire-aid-california.html>



'As president, Donald Trump wavered on decisions to grant federal
disaster aid to states where he believed fewer people supported him,
according to a new report from Politico that cites interviews with two
former Trump administration officials.

One of the officials was Mark Harvey, who served on the National
Security Council as senior director of resilience policy. He told the
outlet that Trump initially did not want to send the Federal Emergency
Management Agency to Southern California amid the devastating wildfires
there in 2018.

“We went as far as looking up how many votes he got in those impacted
areas ... to show him these are people who voted for you,” Harvey told
Politico.

“There’s no empathy for the survivors. It is all about getting your
photo-op, right? Disaster theater to make him look good,” he added.
He went on: “It was very much a business deal, like, ‘This a lot of
money. What are we getting in return for it?’”'

<https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-disaster-aid-blue-states_n_66fee03ee4b09a8f848836e1>



'Donald Trump keeps pushing the vile claim that federal officials are
withholding disaster aid from GOP areas devastated by Hurricane Helene.
This has now backfired, focusing media attention on Trump’s own
hyper-politicization of disaster relief as president. To wit: Two former
Trump officials told Politico that Trump initially refused to approve
disaster aid for California after wildfires in 2018 due to the state’s
Democratic lean. We talked to one of those officials—Olivia Troye, a
senior Homeland Security official in the Trump administration and now a
leading critic of the former president—about Trump’s disastrous tenure,
and what she told is is not pretty. Listen to this episode here. A
transcript is here.'

And provide a transcript:

'In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, former President Donald Trump has
blasted the Biden administration for its handling of the disaster —
going so far as to accuse Democratic leaders of ignoring the needs of
Republican storm victims.

But a review of Trump’s record by POLITICO’s E&E News and interviews
with two former Trump White House officials show that the former
president was flagrantly partisan at times in response to disasters and
on at least three occasions hesitated to give disaster aid to areas he
considered politically hostile or ordered special treatment for
pro-Trump states.

Mark Harvey, who was Trump’s senior director for resilience policy on
the National Security Council staff, told E&E News on Wednesday that
Trump initially refused to approve disaster aid for California after
deadly wildfires in 2018 because of the state’s Democratic leanings.

But Harvey said Trump changed his mind after Harvey pulled voting
results to show him that heavily damaged Orange County, California, had
more Trump supporters than the entire state of Iowa.

“We went as far as looking up how many votes he got in those impacted
areas … to show him these are people who voted for you,” said Harvey,
who recently endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris alongside more than
100 other Republican former national security officials.'

'“I missed him and called him right back and he just said ‘Hey, what do

through the federal process,” Kemp said of Biden. “He offered if there
are other things we need just to call him directly, which I appreciate
that.”'

'On Monday, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper (D), addressed the false
claims affecting his state — where more than 100 people were killed by
Helene — in a post on X.

“We need to work together to rebuild and recover from a catastrophic
disaster like this one — and spreading false information to sow chaos
hurts real people,” Cooper wrote. “Politicians, billionaires and
grifters who peddle lies during a time of crisis should be held
accountable.” '

No Internet.

No communication.

Thank God for people like Trump and Elon in particular who is dropping free

My area was hit badly by Superstorm Sandy and people from all over the country
came to help us. And while Sandy was bad, the destruction done by Helene is a
million times worse.

And communities around where I live are sending help for the people down south
because they helped up.
Power company, flatbeds full of supplies and workers who just want to help.
I've seen them driving in caravans on the interstate. Many have flags, both

And that's another lie.
They're getting $750 for IMMEDIATE needs.

and just where are they supposed to spend it? They need food and water.

'Before Helene made landfall, the Governors of Alabama, Florida,
Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina submitted emergency
declaration requests that President Biden swiftly approved. These
declarations authorized FEMA to provide assistance for emergency
measures to save lives, protect property, public health and safety, and
fund other emergency response measures. The Federal government
proactively pre-positioned personnel and resources across the region
before Hurricane Helene made landfall, including power restoration teams
for temporary emergency power, search and rescue equipment, meals,
water, generators, and equipment to assist communities and states with
impacts from the storm.
...
The Federal government pre-staged more than 2.7 million meals, 1.6
million liters of water, 50,000 tarps, 10,000 cots, and 20,000 blankets
in the region to support sheltering needs in impacted communities.'

Also they must apply for it which implies that they have to have
electricity to apply for something they may or may not get.

Regardless, $750 is an insult to those in need.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have
come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA?s) preparedness before
Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization.
Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as
hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The
organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but
would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas
made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming
weather crises.
"FEMA is tremendously prepared," Mayorkas assured reporters in a video
from July. "This is what we do, this is what they do, and the key here
? is to also make sure the communities who are potentially impacted
are prepared as well."
LAWMAKERS OUTRAGED OVER FEMA FUNDING CONCERNS
"And it?s not just hurricanes and wildfires ? also extreme heat, which
certainly some parts of the United States are experiencing," he added.
Mayorkas stressed that FEMA has "exercised these muscles, regrettably,
year after year" due to the "increasing frequency and gravity of
weather events."
However, Mayorkas did argue that FEMA?s disaster relief fund remained
in a precarious position and needed fresh funding from Congress ahead
of an expected heavy hurricane season. In July, he anticipated running
out by "mid-August."
Mayorkas stressed the need to be ready for the "consequences" of
increasingly severe weather events as climate change continues to
exacerbate disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires.

Perhaps the money being spent on illegals should support the taxpayers
first.

I have been saying this for a long time. This is just another section of
Biden/Harris' "America Last Program".
It could not be any clearer.
The Democrats don't care about the American citizens but instead prefer to
coddle the illegal migrants.
And it is positively disgusting.

I know you have a problem understand nuance, but this isn't that.
Congress sets the budget for FEMA and congress gave them the budget they
currently have.
The Republicans have the majority in the House and it's basically a tie
in the Senate.
So if FEMA hasn't been given enough money to do their job, you know
where to look.

Idiot.
1. Free cellphones.
2. Room/board in 4 star hotels.
3. Debit cards.
4. Medical care.
5. Education.
etc.
People are better off being an illegal migrant to the USA than a legal citizen
suffering due to a hurricane.
All of that aid should be cutoff and the money used to help the citizens of the
USA who are suffering right now.
Get off your throne and realize that Biden/Harris favors the illegal migrants
over the legal citizens and if you can't see this then you are an idiot.

What they get depends on money allocated...
...BY CONGRESS.

Ok. If you're going to rely on this as your claim of fact, please
The amount allocated to illegals via FEMA
The amount dedicated to natural disaster relief via FEMA. Ensure you
include previous years amounts.
Failure to provide this data is your admission you are lying.

And you will, of course, provide proof of your claim that FEMA has
diverted funds it COULD have spent on disaster relief to illegal aliens.

You don't get to demand that I back up a claim when you're diverting
from the fact you refuse to back up your own claim.

Sorry, but the diverting funds claim came first.

Or are you as senile as Trump that you can't remember what you wrote:

'Perhaps the money being spent on illegals should support the taxpayers
first.'

And that I provide a cite to back my claim that FEMA wasn't diverting
funds in my very first replY:

'Perhaps you should read the words of that well-known left-wing source,
Forbes:

'Trump FEMA Claim Debunked: Agency Not Running Out Of Money Because Of
Migrants'

<https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2024/10/04/trump-fema-claim-debunked-agency-not-running-out-of-money-because-of-migrants/>

'FEMA says on its website that any claims that disaster funds were
rerouted to border-related efforts are “false,” noting the Disaster
Relief Fund is a dedicated fund for managing disasters and money meant
for the fund “has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.”

Congress determines how much money goes to FEMA’s disaster fund, and the
fund faces issues after lawmakers declined to allocate additional
funding for FEMA’s efforts in the stopgap funding bill it passed last
month, only extending FEMA’s existing funding level and allowing it to
draw from $20 billion in funds more quickly.'

That line in there: "declined to allocate"?

That was a link to this:

'A pair of destructive hurricanes along the Gulf Coast, an explosion of
wildfires across the West and urgent pleas from Democrats and the White
House this month were not enough to persuade Congress to secure new
funding for disaster victims.'

<https://www.eenews.net/articles/lawmakers-stunned-as-disaster-funds-left-out-of-stopgap-bill-2/>

So, bottom line:

FEMA has a budget provided by congress and has not used any money meant
for disaster relief on immigrants of any kind. '
