Related: About this forumTrump Admin. Plot to Kill FEMA Before Hurricane Chaos Hits - Rebel HQ
Just as forecasters warn of a brutal 2025 hurricane season, Donald Trumps inner circle including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is actively working to dismantle FEMA. Disaster response plans have been paused, hiring has been frozen, and critical programs are on the chopping block. With millions of lives potentially at risk, the GOPs war on government is colliding with climate reality. This isnt just cruelty, its sabotage.

and yes, JUST IN TIME FOR HURRICANE SEASON.
Trump and all his OBSCENELY WEALTHY buddies do NOT want money that should be going into their pockets, being wasted on peons and their sad little problems.
It's Trump's variation of: "LET THEM EAT CAKE."
