Much like abortion, republicans are only playing politics to be against something. They actually don’t have a vision to construct anything. I’ll believe it that republicans are serious about providing folks with disaster relief when they stop voting against FEMA funding. I’ll believe it when they actually vote with democrats for infrastructure spending. I’ll believe it when they admit that climate change is happening and agree to work with Democrats to mitigate the warming of the climate by greenhouse gasses. I’ll believe it when they support relief for disasters impacting primary blue states and cities, not just red ones.
In addition to migrant and disaster relief being different funds, we should all understand, it was the Far Right Republicans who removed additional funding for FEMA from the stopgap budget. The extra money was removed just as Congress adjourned days before Helene arrived. Blame conservative Republicans for “there isn’t enough money”….
Lawmakers stunned as disaster funds left out of stopgap bill
Congress approved a funding patch Wednesday without supplemental disaster money, even as Hurricane Helene bears down on Florida.www.eenews.net
I’ve removed the paywall on this Washington Post article. Yourself and others complaining about the FEMA fund that assists migrants should at least recognize and acknowledge that the fund was created by Donald Trump, in 2019. Therefore, shouldn’t you complain to Trump? Instead of spreading lies initiated by Trump?
Trump created the FEMA migrant fund.
Conservatives in the house removed extra funding for FEMA two days before Helene hit.
It’s dumb for MAGA to insist the situation in North Carolina and elsewhere be fixed overnight. But I knew they would, all while being the same people who called global warming a hoax.
Until then, they’re merely playing games. They’re exploiting a terrible crisis, lying about it, in order to score cheap political points. It’s vile and despicable and they should pay a heavy political price for it. They won’t, because the GOP is largely a cult of personality now and the MSM is mostly a right wing propaganda apparatus that values clicks and tax cuts above anything else.
