        #Manghkut are you covering this 2x the size of #HurricanFlorence yet no one seems to know about it, why? Probably more devastating and deadly, yet no coverage why?

        Many in America do not have the funds to go pay for a shelter at hotels or move to friend's houses. Evac shelters were not established for the poor or sick. We do have money for Children detention centers in Texas so Sessions and DeVos families can become rich.

        Still having reporters broadcast from outside in places they and their crew really shouldn’t be. Very irresponsible reporting.
