        Not intended for disaster relief, WTH, sounds like FEMA and probably other programs are severely over funded. And banking it. Leave our #SocialSecurity alone.

        Actually the Trump administration diverted 200 million only a small part was from FEMA. They took lots from the Coast Guard, TSA, and Boarder Protection. Only reason people are upset over FEMA is the hurricane.

        It’s not a debate. It’s political theater. This is getting absurd.

        @fema ‘a logistics were a disaster in Puerto Rico. I’m shocked they’re defending the money being taken from their budget, especially with the major storms & fires we’ve had this year.

        Ask Puerto Rico what they think. Mr. Obama is no longer President. Stop using him for orange man and friends deflections. Get new excuses.

        That’s because no one, anywhere was paying attention. Tremendous success, I think not.

        Trump wanted to take money from Pentagon earlier to build the wall. Who knows what other kind of crazy shit he is doing... Ben Carson is basically Omarosa but still working under Trump so there’s a rock to look under...
