A Federal Emergency Management Agency worker has been fired after she directed workers helping hurricane survivors not to go to homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump, the agency’s leader said in a statement Saturday.

“This is a clear violation of FEMA’s core values and principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation,” FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell said. “This was reprehensible.”

The agency did not identify the employee, nor did it say where it happened.

But Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, calling it “targeted discrimination” of Florida residents who support Trump, said it happened in Florida.

    This is exactly the kind of shit we must not stoop to. Let the Trumpers feed themselves to the leopards. They don’t need our help destroying themselves, they’re perfectly good at doing that themselves.

      To stoop to their level id need a shovel.

      The general discussion was to avoid them after Trump supporters went around threatening FEMA.

      First rule of first response- look after yourself.
