David Richardson, the new head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, told staff on Friday he will “run right over” anyone that resists changes and that all delegation of authority in the agency is immediately suspended.
Richardson spoke one day after he was appointed to replace acting FEMA chief Cameron Hamilton, who was ousted by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after telling a congressional hearing he did not support eliminating the agency.
“I, and I alone in FEMA, speak for FEMA. I’m here to carry out the president’s intent for FEMA,” Richardson, who was most recently assistant secretary for DHS’ office for countering weapons of mass destruction, told the staff.
Crazy mall security energy from these hilarious fucking clowns. Anybody who stands in the way of US citizens receiving needed aid deserves their very own lil drone strike ♥️
should be ‘Staff who resist the elimination of the agency’ since that’s why hes replacing Cameron Hamilton
Sweet mother nature I hereby beseech you:
Serve up hurricane upon hurricane upon hurricane upon the US south for apparently they wishith to pull upon bootstraps.
May you all have the day you voted for
Whoa whoa whoa. I might be in Texas, but I certainly didn’t vote for this administration. Yes, I have boots and yes I use the straps to pull up my boots, but I also recognize and vocalize that no one can pull themselves up by their bootstraps and furthermore that some people can’t even afford boots.
Wish for something more localized, like bigot-eating wolves or racist-seeking lightning.
Racist-seeking lightning . . . you may be on to something there.
Anyone know about smoting?
It would be a bad day to wear a tinfoil hat.
May the hurricanes completely spare you and your loved ones then.
Define “loved ones.” Some relatives who I used to respect did vote for this.
I just stopped talking to those relatives.
Yeah, there are absolutely people in the south working to change things. Especially in local elections.
Dorchester County council (SC) recently tipped Democratic in a special election. I hate to get all “correlated” up in here, but the last time that happened was shortly before Nixon resigned.
Happy Hurricane Season to the Red States!
Not a single fucking clue what they are doing. Any of them.
deliberate sabotage. People make a lot of money when large institutions fail
If I worked at FEMA I’d immediately ask for clarification on this statement or else sue for threats of violence.
Is it hurricane season yet? Because it’s gonna be wild.
Good luck to the poor folks stuck in red state shit holes.
Fire season in the west and east is gonna be fucking wild too, though. We are all gonna lose.
That seems mildly anti-FEMA.
Sounds like a guy that should be in charge of helping other people. Good job murica.
I look forward to the south being a wasteland. Not one penny of my money will be going to the people that have unleashed the Orange piece of shit on the world.
Dude, your tax dollars are gonna go exclusively to rebuilding strip malls and power centers in shithole states to reward them for the dictator vote. He’s already refused to fund a blue state over a storm cell that destroyed a ton of homes.
Your tax dollars are gonna go exclusively to rebuilding a Hooters that was built on a hastily paved over swamp in 2014.
