The one who’s been taking all the heat went public to explain it’s standard policy. She doesn’t think she did anything wrong. Democrats claim to be legitimately intimidated by conservatives. It’s hard to imagine why they would feel that way, deplorables snicker.
FEMA discriminates by policy
Marn’i Washington was stunned to get fired by FEMA. She’s the supervisor accused of discriminating against Trump supporters. Of course, Washington admits, she told her staff “staff to skip hurricane-ravaged homes that had Trump campaign signs.”
It was absolutely NOT an “isolated” incident, she adds. The way she sees it, “she’s been hung out to dry.”
Washington appeared Monday, November 11, on a YouTube video hosted by podcaster Roland Martin. She didn’t do a darn thing wrong, she insists. She “had just been following a widespread FEMA policy.”
Avoid, their guidelines say, “politically hostile” homes. That means anyone who expresses support for Republicans. To Democrats, the civil war is already in progress.
Alejandro Mayorkas will back her up, Washington believes. “FEMA preaches avoidance first, and then de-escalation. This is not isolated. This is a colossal event of avoidance.”
They didn’t want to start any trouble by helping conservatives who had been flooded from their homes by hurricanes. The 39-year-old supervisor also confirmed the practice is a lot more wide spread than initially reported.
Not only in Florida
Last week, the scandal broke that Trump supporters in the state of Florida were denied emergency disaster services from FEMA because of their signs and bumper stickers backing Donald Trump for president. The state of Florida filed a lawsuit before the day was over.
Now, we’re learning straight from the horse’s mouth that the discrimination was more widespread. “Not just in the state of Florida. You will find avoidance in the Carolinas,” Washington said.
Alejandro Mayorkas has been moved to a safe house since the election but one of his staffers verified Washington’s admission. The un-named FEMA official told the New York Post that besides “skipping Trump-supporting houses,” the agency has a firm practice of avoiding “white or conservative-dominated” disaster zones altogether.
That’s probably what happened in Bat Cave, North Carolina. The tried to blame it on a road closed sign. Nobody believed that lame excuse but it’s not as inflammatory as blatant political discrimination.
The official called it an “open secret at the agency that has been going on for years.” As you can imagine, “Congressional Republican lawmakers whose states were in the path of the back-to-back storms have vowed to take swift action.”
It sure looks like FEMA “abdicated its duties for political reasons.” Multiple investigations are pending.
