It's not surprising that Donald Trump is calling for the elimination of FEMA since it is California that is in severe need of help after the aftermath of the Pacific Palisades wildfires that caused massive damage throughout Los Angeles, where thousands of homes and people's lives.s

Trump attacked FEMA for political reasons and spread more hate against the important agency whenever a natural disaster strikes a red state like Florida or North Carolina. He screamed lie after lie that FEMA was not helping them enough because they were in the deep state.

Trump hounded California and demanded we put in place Voter ID laws or no help would be forthcoming.

The media yawned at his demand, but if President Biden had said the same thing to Ron DeSantis, all hell would have broke loose.

Kristi Noem, the new Director of Homeland Security, expectedly jumped in and called for the elimination of FEMA.

“I would say, yes, get rid of FEMA the way it exists today,” Noem told CNN on Sunday, echoing Trump’s call for the agency, which is run by the Department of Homeland Security, to be dismantled and for disaster response to be left to individual states.

Here's the acting head of FEMA just unliterally deciding that Article I is fake earlier today. The Constitution is not in effect.
