    You’re correct that more information in an investigation will bring light to what happened, however I’m going by the info in the article and not just the title, and there is more info there. Your last part suggests you’re referring to the other storm’s area and FEMA threats there, not in Florida.

      When I said “more data than is publicly available now”, did you think I was referring to a title on Lemmy?

      The article includes someone they refer to as a “whistleblower”. The analogy with ACORN would be noted liar Jacob Wohl.

      The article also includes a statement from FEMA Agency head, Deanne Criswell. I was talking about her when I said “idiot Democrats who fired the accused without even the slightest inquiry”.

      On second thought, I’m not sure she’s a Democrat. I assume she was appointed by Biden. But the article does not indicate any sort of inquiry or have a statement from the manager involved.

      Are you under the impression that only NC Republicans hate FEMA? This conspiracy theory is decades old. I suspect you are referring to Helene because you are ignorant of the long standing antipathy between Republicans and FEMA.

      If you have any reason to believe Republicans aren’t threatening FEMA workers after Milton, feel free to share it. Otherwise, maybe wait for an investigation before jumping to conclusions.

        I can’t prove a negative. I wasn’t aware of FEMA workers being threatened in Florida like in NC and TN. I also can’t seem to find any news about it, only about the earlier. Doesn’t mean it’s not true, it’s just that the idea of people attacking those trying to help them didn’t seem to be in both places based on a search.
