It was a very bad year for fema employees

@markwarner.bsky.social @kaine.senate.gov @beyer.house.gov haven’t done anything despite dozens of phone calls

Easily provable blatant lying from Noem

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

@repyassansari.bsky.social YES. More of this energy

This put me over the edge. I’m done.

About six months too late

No, people are working. The president and DHS have all the information they need to declare, they just aren’t

It's time to make our voices heard! Call your member of Congress at (202) 224-3121. They need to hear from us about the critical support FEMA requires. Together, we can ensure that FEMA gets the funding and resources it needs to serve our communities effectively.

When you call ask these four things: (1) Remove FEMA from under the Dept of Homeland Security and re-establish it as a standalone agency. (2) Hire more people at FEMA (3) Provide more funding for FEMA,and (4) Install a qualified, Senate-confirmed emergency manager as the FEMA Administrator.

Make the call today! A small action, multiplied by thousands, can make a real difference. Congress rarely hears from people about FEMA unless it’s to complain. Let’s change that. Use your voice to speak up for the agency and the mission we believe in.

CALL TO ACTION:

Let’s use our voices to advocate for FEMA. FEMA does have broad bipartisan support but our congress people need to hear from us!

Pope urges news agencies to stand as bulwark against lies, manipulation and post-truths Pope Leo XIV has encouraged international news agencies to stand firm as a bulwark against the “ancient art of lying” and manipulation.

“With your patient and rigorous work, you can act as a barrier against those who, through the ancient art of lying, seek to create divisions in order to rule by dividing,” he said. “You can be a bulwark of civility against the quicksand of approximation and post-truth...”

Literally the most anxiety inducing words in 2025

Do Democrats want health care for ‘illegal aliens’? Republicans said Democrats shut down the government because they want health care for immigrants in the U.S. illegally. That’s False. Democrats want to reverse parts of Trump’s spending law that made…

Republicans said Democrats shut down the government because they want health care for immigrants in the U.S. illegally. That’s False. Democrats want to reverse parts of Trump’s spending law that made some legal immigrants ineligible for health care.

Like you give a flying fuck about FEMA?! After all you’ve done? Absolutely vile

NEW: After one of Kristi Noem’s major financial supporters contacted her, the DHS chief quickly expedited more than $11 million of federal money to rebuild a historic pier in Naples, Florida, records obtained by ProPublica show.

As Texas flooded, key staff say FEMA’s leader could not be reached The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s acting administrator, David Richardson, is often inaccessible, several current and former officials say, raising concerns within the agency.

This investigation is devastating. If the gross misconduct & incompetence at FEMA in the Texas flood had happened under Biden in a blue state, Democrats would have been outraged. But it’s Trump and Texas, so expect Republicans to say nothing.

Do something about it

I'm really out of things to say about the Richardson situation. It has been made very clear that he is unqualified to lead FEMA and that his presence at the agency is directly putting lives at risk.

What are you doing about it @schumer.senate.gov

And doing neither well

Honestly, the thing that bums me out about Trump isn’t even how much he sucks, which is a lot. It’s how him winning in 2024 felt like an ironclad refusal by the American people to want to be better.

Can confirm we are far worse off than we were before Katrina. This administration has ignored or reversed every lesson so painfully learned

They even got Marty’s email about taking a crap with 30,000 of his closest friends. EM legend

Rumor is they have a business together
