Jack Hopkins-The Original @therealjackhopkins.bsky.social

Trump admin is slashing FEMA’s disaster aid ahead of peak hurricane season...rolling back federal support...cutting staff...and shifting responsibilities to states. Emergency officials warn this jeopardizes readiness...and risks a repeat of Katrina-level failures. Standard Trump level incompetence.

Mr. Blabalino 🇳🇴🇺🇸💙 @blabalino.com

Every time someone is killed or injured by a disaster, file a class action lawsuit against Trump's cuts to FEMA & NWS. Every time someone is killed or injured by an infectious disease file a class action lawsuit against RFK Jr's CDC & NIH changes. They only care about money so make it hurt badly.

After gifting billions to corporations and billionaires it seems like they’ll do anything to reduce further bloating of the deficit by crushing any manner of assistance to the majority of Americans. All while radically raising taxes using regressive tariffs to offset the bloat
