President Trump says he plans to start “phasing out” FEMA after the hurricane season, and that he also plans to distribute disaster relief funds directly from the president’s office.

In other words- states will need to bend the knee and kiss the ring in order to stand any chance of receiving disaster relief.

He'll decide what he'll give them. Which won't be anything close to being enough, if it's even remotely what they need. Like the LA fires. He ordered water dumped from a reservoir that couldn't have possible flowed anywhere close to LA.

I’m well aware of all this, but he’ll cut off anywhere he doesn’t like and at least Florida is lucky enough he lives there.

I can't think of a better idea than replacing a nonpartisan federal agency for providing disaster relief with a system that relies on the requesting community being in the good graces of whoever holds a particular elected office. What could go wrong?

So this is subverting Congress's power of the purse. I'm guessing the states now have to wait for Trump to break the law to sue him on it. Could they at least send out a press release to respond?

Besides evading Congress, is this an attempt to line his own pockets or his cronies? Who is going to audit the expenditures to make sure the money will go to *all* deserving citizens and not just Trump's contractors?

Meidastouch had a video on Gavin Newsom's press responses to the onslaught of MAGA flooding the zone. The press team is responding quickly to help reduce the spread of misinformation. (I liked that the video showed the range of attacks + governor's responses.) youtu.be/uJMtGfycOBw?...

Probably I've missed something, but I'm wondering if the DNC has a similar organized response effort in the works. There's supposed to be a team of experts, yes? If Trump is working to distract people, then it seems that rapid response would be helpful in freeing Democrats more from Trump's fires.

Kind of won't matter because red states along the Atlantic and Gulf Coast won't have any immigrants around to rebuild their houses. God knows white men won't dirty their dainty hands with manual labor. They just sit in their air conditioned trucks yelling at immigrants.
