supplement funds for subsequent disasters after Hurricane Helene. MAGA MIKE not only didn't do that, he sent Congress home. And he refused to reconvene Congress when the next hurricane bore down on FL. Obvious that Trump was hoping to make Biden look like a failure before the election. In particular, the Maggots wanted to win NC and were willing to make disaster victims suffer and stew in their anger for that party's benefit. Too bad those mountain folk bought into the ruse at their own expense, but so it goes in a red neighborhood.

Tillis retiring seems like payback.

But in answer to your question, no, I don't believe Maga Mofo Mike ever added supplemental funds to FEMA, knowing that Trump's plan was to ax the program once in office. Without the extra funds in this magnitude of a disaster, MOFO and TACO could be setting up FEMA for failure.
