Trump caught lying about hurricane relief

[struth]

So?

It's still not the only funds people could be eligible for. It's just some initial cash for immediate relief. You'd comprehend that if you weren't out of your fucking mind.

What else are they gonna get?

 

[BlindBoo]

Then why are they out of money? Where did it go?

Why is Harris only capping them at 750?

Rumor: FEMA will only provide $750 to disaster survivors to support their recovery.

Fact:​

This is false.

One type of assistance that is often approved quickly after you apply is Serious Needs Assistance, which is $750 to help pay for essential items like food, water, baby formula, breastfeeding supplies, medication and other emergency supplies. There are other forms of assistance that you may qualify to receive once you apply for disaster assistance. As your application continues to be reviewed, you may still receive additional forms of assistance for other needs such as support for temporary housing and home repair costs. Learn more about the types of assistance available. If you have questions about your disaster assistance application and what you qualify for, contact us at 1-800-621-3362 to speak with a FEMA representative.

spending all the FEMA funds on her border surge?

Rumor: Funding for FEMA disaster response was diverted to support international efforts or border related issues.

Fact:​

This is false. No money is being diverted from disaster response needs. FEMA’s disaster response efforts and individual assistance is funded through the Disaster Relief Fund, which is a dedicated fund for disaster efforts. Disaster Relief Fund money has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.

Where did all the money go? Why are they saying they are running out of money?

 

[struth]

As an advisor, you mental case. Not as the president.

So she’s advising the president to do this things…and you think that makes it better??!?

 

[Faun]

What else are they gonna get?

Whatever they're eligible for. Some up to tens of thousands of dollars. But for quick, immediate relief just to buy groceries and medicine in the short term, they can get $750, if they're eligible.

Which is more than people got when Trump was president.

Published August 15, 2024

The United States has already faced 19 climate disasters this year with losses exceeding $1 billion each, according to FEMA.

Destructive wildfires, which began in late June, ravaged the town of Ruidoso, New Mexico, forcing thousands of residents to evacuate and leaving at least two people dead. The cost of damages due to the South Fork Fire was estimated at $1.2 billion, according to FEMA.

FEMA approved more than $2.4 million in funding for New Mexico homeowners whose homes were devastated by the fires and subsequent flooding.

The agency also provided assistance to Texas residents who suffered losses after Hurricane Beryl, the first hurricane of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, hit the coast of the state as a category 1 hurricane on July 8, causing an estimated $6 billion in damages.

FEMA has run out of money in the middle of hurricane season. Here's what that means

History seems to be repeating itself: FEMA exhausted its funds right before Hurricane Idalia made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend a year ago.

www.nbcdfw.com

Alejandro Mayorkas, the head of the United States Homeland Security Department, had warned back in June that FEMA’s disaster relief fund was expected to run out of money by mid-August.

The agency has faced funding challenges in previous years. Last August, FEMA exhausted their funds right before Hurricane Idalia made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend as a powerful category 3 hurricane on August 30th.

Since 2001, FEMA has run out of funding on nine occasions, according to the agency's site.

So what does FEMA do when they run out of funding and what does that mean for future natural disaster recovery efforts? Here’s what you need to know:

Will FEMA stop responding to emergencies if there’s no funding? ​

Now that FEMA has exhausted their disaster funding, the agency has begun to implement their Immediate Needs Funding guidance - meaning they will redirect funds to immediate, life-saving recovery efforts and deprioritize other obligations like reimbursements for disaster activity.

“This ensures that FEMA can continue essential operations, prioritizes funding for critical ongoing disaster needs, while ensuring that we are prepared to respond immediately to new disasters,” a FEMA spokesperson told Telemundo.

During this period, FEMA will pause:

• New Public Assistance
• Hazard Mitigation
• DRF-funded BRIC obligations that are not essential for lifesaving and life-sustaining activities.

“Funding for other programs, such as public assistance and long-term mitigation projects have been paused, but not cancelled or terminated, as part of FEMA's current Immediate Needs Funding guidelines position,” the FEMA spokesperson clarified.

Where did the money go??

 

[Faun]

Where did all the money go? Why are they saying they are running out of money?

FEMA just got $20 billion. They didn't say they're running out of money. This disaster is so huge they said they will not have enough funds if another hurricane hits.

And I note, you avoided answering this question...

How bad would it be right now had FEMA not gotten that $20 billion last week?

Some of it went to cover previous disasters. The bulk is going into this one.

Progs have given out and wasted trillions of dollars. For their special interests. Our Progressive Socialist Communist Politicians are now playing both sides between Israel and the Islamic world. This is dangerous. And the taxpayers are the suckers.

Which ones? Why did they need so much? Why are they already running out?

 

[Faun]

So she’s advising the president to do this things…and you think that makes it better??!?

She's not in charge of the government. You're beyond brain-dead. For a period, Steve Bannon was giving advice to Trump while he was president. Accordng to your lunacy, Steve Bannon was in charge of the government.

Are ya feeling stupid yet?

Feel free to look it up. I'm not your secretary.

And no, putz, I didn't say Trump is president now. You only think I did because you out of your fucking mind.

 

[Faun]

I know, and now they are saying the don’t have money.

Sadly, you just can't stop lying. They did not say they don't have money. You're out of your fucking mind.
