Wut? That is some weird idolatry going on, apparently literally signed by Trump.
 

I think this one will turn out to be fine. FEMA is authorized by Congress to administrator those funds to help house migrants. Not sure why its going through FEMA but my guess is someone wanted to pass a bill that might be a bit of a fight in an election year and a disaster relief bill was likely to pass so it got added on.


I don't know if it will be popular but my guess is that it was passed to help communities struggling with migrants. Most of those would be at the border in mostly Republican districts. Maybe the luxury hotel will be an issue if that turns out to be true.

Whats your take on why they're provided housing, but actual citizens affected by the hurricane in North Carolina were living in tents?

I suspect they are separate issues. Where the migrants were located there were hotels and other structures. Where the citizens were located there was flooded out rubble.

One issue FEMA had with housing people in WNC was that those folks were so thoroughly inundated with misinformation about FEMA that they had a hard time getting them to apply for aid. FEMA even extended the deadline to try and get people to respond.

Lol yeah ok

You’re so incredibly gullible. Do you think Musk makes the distinction between legal and illegal?

To him and the rest of his administration, every brown person who wasn’t born in this country is an illegal.

How about showing us some proof of his accusations? He hasn’t exactly earned the right to be accepted at his word.

Look up something called the SSP (Shelter and Services Program). Congress approved and the money doesn’t come out of the FEMA budget. This is the “smoking gun” Elon is speaking about. Only he’s too stupid to understand that it is 100% legal and delegated by Congress.

You don't have to believe it, but it's all public record that FEMA has extended the deadline more than once and there are articles out there outlining how people distrust FEMA so much they refuse to apply for aid. One particular odious piece of misinformation is that FEMA would take their land. I don't expect a MAGA loser to believe evidence, so just continue to wallow in your ignorance for all I care.
 


This former NSF / House Science committee fella discusses why any such cuts are illegal. Granted, it's unclear that legality matters anymore.

Presumably there are lawsuits coming? Whereas red states happily shuttered DEI offices, I don't understand how they'd allow hospitals and universities to shed tens of thousands of employees with catastrophic ripple effects. Not to mention, some red states have recently made enormous investments in research universities--why crater that?

If FEMA were ran correctly and wasn't politized the right people would be getting help. The Biden administration put illegals ahead of citizens. One of many reasons the voters put Trump back in office
