The idea that FEMA is there to help during disasters is a FACADE. ������

FEMA is really the “shadow government” that exists SOLELY to grab as much land & DESTROY as many American lives as possible.

The purpose of FEMA is to set up a country-wide prison state control grid to IMPRISON & DETAIN dissidents as we get closer to the New World Order take over of the United States.

Look up REX 84, a classified exercise where the Govt. could detain large numbers of American citizens deemed to be a “national security threat.”

That is why FEMA falls under the banner of the Department of Homeland Security, which was birthed by George W. Bush after 9/11 alongside the Patriot Act, and the MASSIVE 4th Amendment violation that is the TSA.

All of the above are designed to ILLEGALLY surveil, censor, and subjugate American citizens.

If you notice, FEMA hasn’t done a damn thing to actually HELP Americans in time of great need like Maui, Texas & now Helene.

THEY AREN’T SUPPOSED TO.

FEMA IS PURE EVIL

Pretty much. They’re doing all they can to block citizens from helping while doing nothing. Let’s see what happens after the Florida hurricane hits. Things should get real interesting then. Mr Gristle, the truth always comes out. It may take some time, but it emerges.

Yeah, Matt Gaetz needs to get off his ass and help with funding

And the Devil's Favorite Demon isn't happy with some of what you've been pushing

You can be gullible and naive. But I’ve always had a healthy skepticism when it comes to our government. At all levels. It’s all corrupt. Both sides. You can’t prove me wrong.

Of course Mr Gristle. There are the puppet masters behind the scenes controlling everything. That’s why we’re always in wars and are the largest debtor nation in the history of the world. And the puppet masters don’t give a shit about the Hurricane victims. Hence, neither does FEMA.

Speaking of a puppet

Kamala says Americans ravaged by Hurricane Helene are "very appreciative" of her "work."

REMINDER: She was too busy fundraising with her rich San Francisco donors to notice, then took DAYS to act as helpless Americans died on rooftops waiting for help that never came.

hanks to the lies and misinformation pushed by Trump, MTG (she’s back to the lasers now) and the MAGA cult (#viewerslikeyou), FEMA has had to open a “Rumor Response Page.”

https://www.fema.gov/disaster/curren...rumor-response

Speaker Johnson (Gabby) refused to call lawmakers back from recess to appropriate more disaster relief funding. So that’s not going to happen. And another storm is headed to Florida.

Bullshit makes quite the mess of people’s lives, doesn’t it?

Desperate campaign tactics.

More on North Carolina's response to Trump's bullshit lies.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...afa636cf&ei=40

Now before all you Trumpists get your knickers in a twist because the link is to MSNBC, watch and listen to what Trump said. No context is missing. That's HIM saying that shit.

Hi Yssup,

I went to the FEMA link you provided. It didn't work. I got a "404 Page Not Found" error code.

I did a search on their website for "rumor response" and got this page:

https://www.fema.gov/disaster/curren...rumor-response

https://www.fema.gov/press-release/2...ated-hurricane

Give those a try.


Also, I checked the "2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan" found on this page:

https://www.fema.gov/about/strategic-plan

"The 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan outlines a bold vision and three ambitious goals designed to address key challenges the agency faces during a pivotal moment in the field of emergency management."

Here are their 3 Goals right from their website:

"Three Bold, Ambitious Goals"

"The goals and objectives laid out in the Plan will help ensure success for our agency, emergency management community, and those we serve."

"Goal 1 - Instill Equity as a Foundation of Emergency Management"

https://www.fema.gov/about/strategic-plan/goal-1

"Goal 2 - Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience"

https://www.fema.gov/about/strategic-plan/goal-2

"Goal 3 - Promote and Sustain a Ready FEMA and Prepared Nation"

https://www.fema.gov/about/strategic-plan/goal-3


Well, there it is folks . . . in their own words.

You be the judge.

FEMA HAS NO AUTHORITY DUE TO Chevron deference
https://www.scotusblog.com/2024/06/s...eral-agencies/
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c51ywwrq45qo
https://www.bakerdonelson.com/suprem...ext-for-fema?t

https://www.bakerdonelson.com/impend...ute-resolution
Historically, the courts have had little involvement in review of the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) decisions regarding the billions of dollars of federal disaster recovery funding that FEMA administers annually. Legal professionals typically discourage pursuing judicial review of a FEMA denial of funding due to the discretionary nature of most of FEMA's programs and also the high level of deference given to FEMA's interpretation and application of the laws that apply. However, the United States Supreme Court is expected to issue a ruling this month that may nullify years of precedent through the anticipated overturn of the namesake case for "Chevron deference." If this occurs, pursuing relief from an offensive FEMA denial through an action for judicial review in the courts could emerge as a new option.

For decades, federal agencies, like FEMA, have enjoyed significant deference from the courts regarding their interpretation of laws and regulations applicable to the program(s) they administer, a principle known as "Chevron deference" after the 1984 decision in Chevron v. National Resources Defense Council. In short, Chevron and its progeny establish that courts give deference to an agency's interpretation of the applicable law so long as the interpretation is: (i) issued by the agency charged with administering it; (ii) generally rational or reasonable; and (iii) given in a form that would have the force of law, like an adjudication or formal notice-and-comment rulemaking. Now this long-standing doctrine is under intense scrutiny as the Supreme Court of the United States considers two pivotal cases1 that could dismantle it.
