    Nope. The supervisor said they even received hostile reaction from Harris supporters at times but they never had the same directive to skip those houses. You never admit when you are wrong. Not a good trait.


    Remember when all the Dems here said this was a stupid right wing conspiracy? Why are they always wrong. Even more, she wasn't the only one doing it

    Yes, she is saying very clearly that the orders came from the top, and that it was systemic. She also clearly still thinks that was the right thing to do.

    And the leftists here are doing the usual thing:

    1) They lie that it's not happening.
    2) Once they can no longer lie about it: It's happening, but it's a good thing.

    This person was rightfully fired as soon as it came out and I agree partisan decisions on who to give aid to shouldn’t be tolerated.

    I am going to note that I didn’t see the same amount of concern regarding LEO who said he wouldn’t help Democrats

    Those individuals aside though we see the incoming administration hiring people primarily based on partisan and ideological reasons. When FEMA, NOAA and the National Hurricane center singled by unqualified ideologues while also facing major cutbacks just be ready next hurricane season.

    Trump who lives in Florida will make sure relief money gets to Florida. But when there are forest fires in CA or the Northwest, the administration may not fork over the relief funds. Trump already threatened that. His plans seem to include not treating all Americans the same. Does anyone think that will help bring the nation together?

    In the interview, Washington noted in previous deployments, FEMA teams have issued similar directives for homes with Biden-Harris or Harris-Walz signs due to hostility the crews met.

    Honestly, I don't believe what she says. I think she wants cover for her own actions.

    Pretty deplorable of FEMA. Can't have that type if attitude and directive when you're an organization built to provide emergency assistance in times of needs paid for and by the people of America. You are trained to handle being in situations such as what happened in NC...no excuses.

    Only military and police are trained and expected to go into potentially hostile situations where things can escalate to violence. And they’re armed.

    FEMA workers are trained to know not to make blanket assumptions due to a small group of individuals to deny assistance to a majority group of Americans. There are the police and military personnels that can accompany them if they feel such situations are needed.

    We all know that these woke clowns are living in a bubble and they are making up facts in their own warped minds. Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder.

    You should probably take your signs down when hurricanes approach anyway. They can become projectiles. Problem solved.
