So when she’s proven catastrophically wrong about all this, her reputation will be ruined and she’ll resign, right?

This is illegal, plain and simple. FEMA workers are doing their duty as public servants by blowing the whistle on the dismantling of their agency -- and whistleblowing is protected under federal law.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem may be content with more Americans dying from natural disasters, but we're not. The courageous FEMA staff who wrote the Katrina Declaration will not be silenced.

The same has happened to the brave EPA employees who signed a letter objecting to the destruction of the Agency’s environmental mission by this administration.

It's deliberate. It's intentional. It's intent is to reduce the United States to third-rate status so it can NEVER rival China or Russia again on the World Stage. America is under attack by domestic enemies aligned with hostile foreign powers.

It couldn’t be easier for us to fail when there are Russian assets in the WH, Congress and contractors like Elon Musk. This is Putin and Xi’s wet dream. And these idiot MAGATs are waiting for us to be great again? They shouldn’t hold their breath. Wait, on second thought, maybe they should.

Except of course that SCrOTUS has ruled that “the President” can do no wrong. Trump has universal immunity — which must surely mean whomever he deputizes to break what used to be laws enjoys that same umbrella of immunity. There is no such thing as illegal for Trump and Team Treason.

The conflict of interest standards still apply to employees on paid administrative leave.

Yet another case that will waste taxpayer $$ Even if every thing they did, and they didn’t, was gonna save $$, all the lawsuits will definitely contribute to the ever growing Nat debt

The efforts of FEMA were essential to the recovery after Harvey in the Coastal Bend of Texas. Anyone who has experience a disaster knows FEMA must be protected from Trump’s Destructive Regime!

Whether Kristi knows this is illegal or not really doesn't matter. They will do anything they want until they are stopped. That's always been the courts, but when you own the checks and balances over you, you have no fear of them.

I'll be happy when a new administration charges Kristi with felonies for every instance of her breaking the law in any capacity. She should be held to account for violations she approved. Including all Habeas Corpus violations.

Kristi Noem is 53, but many say she looks like she’s in her 30s. Fitness, styling, and a polished public image keep her looking far younger than her age.
