Teleportation to The Waffle House: This Guy Runs a Division of FEMA. WOW.

[candycorn]

I thought it was an April Fools joke at first. But we’re not that lucky as a nation.

From the piece;

In December, Mr. Phillips, 65, a former top health official in Texas, was appointed to head FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery. The office, with more than 1,000 employees and a budget of nearly $300 million, is central to FEMA’s job of responding to disasters like hurricanes, earthquakes and fires. Mr. Phillips was known, at the time, as a proponent of election fraud conspiracy theories, some of which were amplified by Mr. Trump.

Things got stickier for Mr. Phillips last month, when an investigative report by CNN detailed how, on podcasts and social media, he had propagated other conspiracy theories, used violent rhetoric in discussing former President Joseph R. Biden, and recounted how, on two occasions, he had somehow found himself being moved, by forces beyond his control, dozens of miles from two different starting points in Georgia.

It’s an actual story folks.



I would love to hear Karoline Leavitt comment on this. Does anyone know if she got asked about government officials being teleported to The Waffle House?

/----/ I once met a hot chick at a bar; she brought over drinks. Next thing I knew, I woke up in a cheap hotel, in the tub filled with ice, and minus one kidney.
