Republicans are so smart I’d generally give a pass to an administration in the early stages of this type of event. There are many, many moving parts to disaster relief and I’d think the overwhelming sentiment to on-the-ground relief workers is to help as many people as possible as quickly as possible. It’s a tragic situation. However, I think the juxtaposition between aid to people in these areas as opposed to tax dollars directed to all things illegal immigration is as reasonable as any other discussion on priorities. I’m also taken aback by stories of officials shutting down rescue/aid efforts by locals in these areas when aid is slow to come from official sources. Of course, as with virtually every other situation, it’s a political talking point and just the way it goes. The admin in charge bears the weight of the charges of incompetence and slow response times. 1 1
SCBills Posted October 4 Author Posted October 4 Pretty evident at this point that the federal government response to this disaster is woefully lacking. Id think both sides of the aisle can agree on this. You can still vote for Harris and admit that between Hawaii, East Palestine and WNC, something needs to change. 1 1

It is the graft that surrounds all of these organizations. The amount that is funneled through non-profs and other groups, the kickbacks and the like, it's terrible. Anyone who's worked with non-prof knows it is a whole level of mess that is concerned about equity and putting money under cops and just shaking it around. It's a whole horse trade. 1 1

Would be a little embarrassing for you if the next words out of his mouth were "an immediately almost, they added an additional 30 counties" and then go on to explain that he expects the numbers to go up as FEMA gets more data... 1
