Republicans Voted Against FEMA Funding Before Helene Hit

Fakey

Quite fummy how easily our **** are tricked into believing a bogus report set to bash AND smear folks they disagree with politically.


Why did YOUZ fail to comprehend the hidden phrase "as part of" this stopgap spending?

The only reason the extra funding for FEMA was in the bill is because they had already misappropriated AND misspent billions of dollars from their budget showering illegal invaders with government largesse they are not entitled to receive.

This funding was but a small part of this bill AND the timing was purely coincidental.

YOUZ go, **** !

No level so low a Democrat will not stoop to tell a lie. Over and over the same ole lame stuff. People are getting fed us. Change your playbook.

They're good at creating an issue then passing the blame. But it makes sense since they know they have a crowd of gullibles willing to whine at every turn.

As Hurricane Helene careened toward Florida's Panhandle, numerous Republicans voted against extending funding for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Last week, Congress approved $20 billion for FEMA's disaster relief fund as part of a stopgap spending bill to fund the government through December 20. But the measure left out billions of dollars in requested supplemental disaster funding.

The article gives a list of all of the Senate and Congressmen that voted against FEMA funding... they're all Republican.

This is what I think is interesting... they knew that the hurricane was coming, but voted to deny funding anyway. Then when the hurricane hit, they want to spread fake news propaganda that the money isn't there, and it's somehow Biden's fault... even though the ones spreading the fake news are the ones that voted to deny the funding.

It's almost as if they chose to hurt, even kill people, just so that they can use it to get votes...
