As revealed by an internal report, the Federal Emergency Management Agency “failed to answer nearly half of the calls for aid and assistance it recently received during Hurricanes Helene and Milton.” That’s not surprising. The only thing Alejandro Mayorkas cares about is making it easier for gangs and terrorists to invade America.
FEMA won’t answer
A scathing report just published by watchdogs sniffing around FEMA slams the agency for ignoring calls for help. Call centers at the Federal Emergency Management Agency “were so overwhelmed, almost half of all callers never connected with a federal worker.” That may come as a shock to citizens who were wiped out by the disaster.
Get over it and clean up the community yourselves, other victims advise. That’s what the town of Bat Cave, in North Carolina, had to do. Federal disaster workers weren’t allowed to drive around a road closed sign, even though the road was passable. They didn’t even consider the possibility of getting the road officially open, either.
The reported data shows that “it took federal agents on average more than an hour to actually pick up those calls that were answered.” FEMA wouldn’t be so understaffed if Alejandro Mayorkas hadn’t spent all the disaster relief money on helping migrants infiltrate America’s heartland.
He may not be able to help with your flooded house but each new asylee gets a cell phone and a Welcome to America Starter Pack, along with a free bus ticket to the destination of their choice.
Maybe next year FEMA might have money for hurricanes and wildfires. A lot depends on who gets declared the election winner. After all the dust and lawsuits settle. Setting up that whole CBP One App platform cost a fortune.
Getting it going is a one time expense. Funneling migrants in will either get much more efficient, or cut down to nothing. There should be money for help after that.
Slammed by conservatives
Because there isn’t any rational defense to the allegations of FEMA incompetence, the media sidesteps the issue. Conservatives, they whine, have been picking on Joe, Kamala, and Alejandro relentlessly. Like that absolves them of responsibility. “The damning report comes as the Harris-Biden administration has been slammed by conservatives for its response to disaster relief.”
Mayorkas couldn’t help it that Hurricanes Helene and Milton “slammed into Florida, North Carolina and other southern states.” Doing more damage than the disaster relief agency had cash to cope with.
One North Carolina man, for instance, desperately needed help when his home was flooded. After dialing the digits for FEMA, he got a cheerful recording announcing unusually high call volume and urging patience. “He was 675th in line.” On October 30, the agency “reported sending $1.2 billion in relief to hurricane survivors in the six most damaged states.”
They managed to divert some money from migrant processing since Joe closed the floodgates ahead of the election. Using Donald Trump’s tried and true policies to do it.
Fully a month after the hurricanes “pounded the lower portion of the United States,” and now that the lion’s share of ballots have been cast, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas recently acknowledged FEMA “does not have the funds” to see Americans through the rest of the Atlantic Hurricane season. He also “admitted the agency is understaffed.”
Republicans are demanding to know exactly what he did with the $640.9 million they gave him to spend on disaster relief. They already know he used the “FEMA-administered funds to aid state and local governments coping with the influx of asylum seekers.” American citizens will just have to handle their own disasters.
