Tornadoes hit St. Louis, 8 Miles of a City Destroyed. Where is FEMA? Where is Trump?

[IM2]

Deadly tornadoes wiped out 8 miles of Saint Louis. It was the worst tornado in the history of the city. Thus far, there has been no response from FEMA. Trump has made no statement.

Tornadoes rip through St. Louis, killing 5 and causing major damage​

Tens of thousands were out power and many homes damaged in Clayton, the Central West End, and North City.

High winds ripped out trees and rooftops across a broad swath of the city of St. Louis and neighboring Clayton on Friday, leaving a wide path of devastation in their wake.

Two tornadoes have been confirmed in the area, with the worst of the storm just before 3 p.m. Less than an hour after the storm, the sun was again shining brightly—only adding to the surreal quality of utter destruction sitting flush against streets that seemed largely untouched.

The city said that at least five people were killed. That includes a beloved food truck owner, who was apparently killed when a tree fell on his truck in Carondelet Park in deep South City and a devoted volunteer who was killed when the roof collapsed at Centennial Christian Church.

Numerous businesses were also hit with heavy damage. HUSTL Hospitality Group posted that both Steve’s Hot Dogs Delmar and The Fountain on Delmar were “closed for the foreseeable future,” posting photos of heavy storm damage. Nearby, restaurateur Ben Poremba saw serious damage to numerous properties and wrote that Esca, Nixta, Florentin and the future home of Olio were closed “this weekend and for the foreseeable future.” A GoFundMe was set up to support staff of the restaurant group while the businesses are closed. Several cultural institutions closed to deal with damage, including the Saint Louis Zoo.

St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer posted on Facebook Friday night, “The loss of life and destruction St. Louis has experienced in today’s storm is horrendous, and my thoughts are with everyone whose lives were altered today.

“Our first responders and community are stepping up in tremendous ways to save lives, help those who are injured, provide shelter, and so much more. Thank you. In the coming days we will have a lot of opportunities to help and much work to do.”

I lived in St. Louis for a few years as a kid. They were always having tornado warnings going off, and running down to the basement. Scary.

The insurrectionists at the whit couple's home who had their guns on their porch as they felt their lives were at stake will repair and rebuild those areas. Of course, the white couple went through hell and owe no one a damn thing. The African American fatigue is so tiresome.

Trump hates those American citizens for some reason.

It was bad down there, at least on the outskirts, I'm going there for Memorial Day, I wonder how much of this I will see, probably not much as I'll be downtown. It's going to be a long clean-up for some and little help from the Feds.

You had no concern about FEMA not showing up during the last Administration. Where were you when the the Biden/Harris FEMA was instructed not to help victims that had Trump signs or where were you when FEMA was writing checks for illegals?

Some went through here last night. I lost power for three hours, but we were lucky. Texas doesn't have basements.

Trump must give a speech 5 minutes after a tornado, standards, requirements never made of democrats.
