FEMA withheld pre-disaster money before Hurricane Helene and has been painfully slow in giving first responders deployment orders, multiple whistleblowers allege in a damning new letter.
The bombshell allegations of mismanagement at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) come just days after the agency took a beating for its boss Alejandro Mayorkas admitting it will not be able to foot the bill for this historic hurricane season.
Now a whistleblower from FEMA, including others on the state and local level are telling Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., that the department has wasted and misappropriated funds in the wake of Helene, which is 'exacerbating the emergency.'
Wasting money while sitting around doing little is Mama Gubmint's usual routine. Does anyone expect different anymore? RIF them deep, they can still not do any work with less staff.
ReplyDeleteSame comment I have made a GREAT MANY time before = "if you want something really screwed up just give the job the the US Federal Government".
ReplyDeleteThis is a bit of a repost:
ReplyDeleteI live in Tattnall county in Georgia. We were one of the original 11 counties listed as disaster area to FEMA. I was fairly lucky as I have minor wind damage and a yard full of limbs and pine cones. I did loose power for 6 days.
The FEMA hand out of $750 to those of us in the listed disaster areas is difficult to apply for. It is an on-line application. There is a lot of legalese double talk in filling it out. It will send you off in one direction only to find yourself back at an earlier menu. IMO the web site was designed to frustrate those applying. But what do I know? I only have 36 years in IT and communications.
I love Matt Gaetz and the hell he gives them in congress.
ReplyDeleteAs to the story, a wall at daybreak should be in their near future, especially moyorass

The federal government's fiscal year starts on October1st. Today is October 4th. Mayorkas is telling us he's out of money for FEMA.
ReplyDeleteI think most of the FEMA money went to this disaster of an administration.
