What we all learn from Katrina is it’s on Governors, state and local officials and our own. FEMA is a nice maybe we shouldn’t depend on. 🤔

FEMA can’t deal with any disaster, clearly because of F47. The Texas flooding victims (where young campers were swept to their deaths among 135 dead) are basically on their own 2 months later.

In NJ, Trump won PATERSON (a heavily minority city) because of the male Latino, Arab and Black vote. NJ went from deep blue to almost purple because of White women voting for class interests and minority men who just couldn't bring themselves to vote for Kamala. Sorry, but that's a fact.
