Could You Imagine?

Hurricane Helene hit the SE United States and has resulted in 100+ deaths so far. FEMA is on the ground in the effected areas (as always). The Administration is working with governors from red states and blue states to provide as much relief as possible.

This isn’t the time to discuss the larger issue of “cutting spending to the bone” in the states but one of the reasons you need robust spending from the government is so you can be better prepared when TSHTF events like this one. You spend when it’s sunny for times when it’s not.

But the thread is about politics. Can you imagine if the congressional GOP had taken Trump’s advice and shut down the government?


None of this happens.

  • FEMA distribution centers are fully stocked and ready to provide commodities and equipment to any impacted state, as required.
  • FEMA is sending additional generators, 150 ambulances, trailers full of meals and water and 215 additional Search and Rescue personnel to North Carolina.
  • Thus far, FEMA has shipped over 1.9 million meals, more than 1 million liters of water, 30 generators and over 95,000 tarps to impacted states.
  • FEMA Disaster Survivor Assistance teams are deploying to Florida and North Carolina to help survivors register for disaster assistance, answer questions and help people jumpstart their recovery.
  • The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services declared a Public Health Emergency for Florida, Georgia and North Carolina, giving health care providers and suppliers greater flexibility in meeting emergency health needs of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Medical responders are in affected states along with medical equipment and supplies, to help protect the delivery of health care services following the landfall of Hurricane Helene.
  • The U.S. Coast Guard crews have saved 19 lives and five pets in the response so far, with rescues continuing in North Carolina. They have thousands of personnel working on response efforts and are providing surface and air rescue assets to support search and rescue missions. Personnel continue addressing transportation concerns by ensuring ports and waterways are reopened safely.
  • The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers deployed teams for temporary emergency power, debris removal and infrastructure assessment of water/wastewater treatment facilities and road/bridges.
  • The Environmental Protection Agency has personnel on the ground who are working closely with federal, state, local, and Tribal partners to prepare for and safely remove hazardous materials and debris, and maintain critical public health and environmental protections in place as storm impacts are assessed.
  • The Department of the Interior’s U.S. Geological Survey activated its Landslide Team to help with assessments in the impacted areas.
  • The U.S. Small Business Administration deployed more than 50 personnel to support people and small businesses as they recover from the hurricane.
  • The U.S. Department of Energy has responders deployed to the Emergency Operations Centers in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina and is closely monitoring impacts and working to advance restoration efforts, including power, fuel and supply chain interruptions.
  • The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has offices in virtually every county with personnel who stand ready to provide technical assistance, disaster programs, and emergency credit to farmers and agriculture producers who lost crops and livestock. USDA has deployed 132 emergency support staff to assist FEMA at their Regional Response Coordination Center in Atlanta and their National Response Coordination Center in Washington. USDA has also approved Florida’s request for waivers for food assistance programs to Florida and is standing by to render additional flexibilities and assistance as requested by the states. In addition, USDA is working to locate those with housing impacts related to Hurricane Helene and connect them with housing assistance and is prepared to assist with infrastructure assistance.

Politics is a profession. Best left to the professionals. That is why the choice is clear this November.
Republicans CANNOT govern.

This is why they're losing.

Wow! A full throated statist support for a criminal out of control political class controlled by billionaires and big corporations and trying to instigate WWIII, with $36 trillion in debt and a crumbling middle class.

Can you IMAGINE that FEMA takes into consideration WHAT RACE needs help before another?
No need to IMAGINE that, it is their stated POLICY!!!!!!
Imagine if the OP had a brain.
:evil:
 
Can you share where W and Dick touched you and made you crazy.


You love those who murder Americans, hate hoax, and sell out our troops over lies and nothing in US national interest.

You are a traitor.

Was it below the waist?
 
Recipe for the losses you're experiencing and will experience some more.
The great thing about that, so will you. I already have been convinced to deconstruct highways that interfere with African American communities and build or enhance them around the cities. This would cause massive growth in those areas outside cities and help prices to lower.
 
As per the OP, FEMA is on the job
 
Horseshit. Vance bent Walz over the table last night and gave it to him without lube. The ones who will be crying are you Communists

Hmm

Vance won - but it wasn't a runaway.

Walz was hurt by his inability to simply say that he lied when he spoke of being in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests.

Weird -

Either one has to fully embrace the fantasy that someone (anyone) is going to open an investigation into 911

or this -

This is exactly how FEMA has long operated. Biden did not change a thing about FEMA.

In Katrina, FEMA had no way to get into floods areas. Now they still are not in Floods. They show up after the water leaves. FEMA is actually a small organization.

Maybe your senility is kicking in again as you enter your final days on earth.

I never said it changed.

But if the government had been shut down as your blob wanted, FEMA wouldn't be on the ground now.
