ASHEVILLE, North Carolina, Jan 24 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he would sign an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally overhauling or eliminating the Federal Emergency Management Agency. “FEMA has turned out to be a disaster … I think we recommend that FEMA go away,” he said during a tour of North Carolina to see damage done by Hurricane Helene last year.

    At what point is this form of refusing to help after a disaster just a more indirect form of war?

      I think it’s so they can redirect all that juicy $$ to some private “disaster relief” company.

      Disaster Capitalism in full force.

        Yeah, the fact that they want the RNC chair to administer disaster relief is basically a neon sign saying “kickbacks go here”
