What a disaster that are. Who made the call to delay life saving responses?

FEMA didn’t answer almost half the calls it received for disaster aid

Hurricanes Helene and Milton have left the Federal Emergency Management Agency struggling to handle phone calls from survivors and maintain staffing.

It's the state emergency agency that they should be calling for assistance, not FEMA.

That ain’t how the system is set up now, but where Trump wants to go.

I remember how well FEMA did in New Orleans.......not......it was the military...FEMA has a history of failure and waste

FEMA faced significant criticism for its response to Hurricane Katrina, with allegations of incompetence, misallocation of resources, and delayed action. However, FEMA also played a crucial role in rescue, recovery, and providing assistance to those affected by the disaster. The experience led to major reforms in emergency management, including the Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act of 2006.

I think that if you were to take the time to look into it, you would find that EVERY state has an emergency management department.
