A Federal Emergency Management Agency worker has been fired after she directed workers helping hurricane survivors not to go to homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump, the agency’s leader said in a statement Saturday.
“This is a clear violation of FEMA’s core values and principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation,” FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell said. “This was reprehensible.”
The agency did not identify the employee, nor did it say where it happened.
But Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, calling it “targeted discrimination” of Florida residents who support Trump, said it happened in Florida.
Not that I agree with this but on some level it could be construed as self-preservation after the hunting parties in western NC
“Don’t go where they’re likely to shoot you” could so easily be construed as “Don’t go where there’s Trump signs.”
How much do you want to bet it was just a guy saying “Hey be careful with trumpers because they like to shoot at us.” political discrimination my ass. Wolves whining because a sheep won’t jump into their teeth.
These professional perpetual victims get a whiff of any actual perceived slight against them and they just cum in their little pants don’t they?
In reality, if anything, someone probably said “We know the trump supporters have been threatening FEMA workers, if you don’t feel safe about the houses with trump signs, you don’t need to put yourself in what you feel is a dangerous position. You can skip those homes and we’ll help those people when/if they file with the office”

No surprise the root of this comes from modern christianity. In their mind anything they can call persecution adds credit (increased self-righteous bs) to their own dogma. Of course when they do it to other people they are saving them from hell so just about anything goes.
AP has gone to shit. They actually fact checked Harris on Project 2025 by asking the orange turd about 2025 - “THE FACTS: Trump has said he doesn’t know about Project 2025, a controversial blueprint for another Republican presidential administration.”
If there were death threats against people working for me, I’d tell them to avoid those people, too. It’s not discrimination. It’s a safety issue. A lot of them were threatening to shoot FEMA workers if they violated their property.
no, you must prioritize rescuing people defunding the rescuers. this is important.
desantis can fuck right off though. wasn’t he one of the ones pushing for defunding fema?
Oh no, stop, please.
This is exactly the kind of shit we must not stoop to. Let the Trumpers feed themselves to the leopards. They don’t need our help destroying themselves, they’re perfectly good at doing that themselves.
To stoop to their level id need a shovel.
The general discussion was to avoid them after Trump supporters went around threatening FEMA.
First rule of first response- look after yourself.
Thia comment chain trying to justify this action is horrific. Jesus guys have a little compassion for ur fellow humans.
Great display of double standards here again. It’s fascism when they do it but perfectly understandable when we do.
Being fine with this mean you’re no better than the people you oppose.
I’m just going to leave this here. It obviously has no bearing on what you’re saying.
Implying that every Trump voter is a fascist is idiotic and highlights just how out of touch political activists on social media are - regardless of which party they support.
Voting for a fascist makes a person categorically a fascist. And by accepted measures of fascism, such as Umberto Eco’s Ur-Fascism, you’d have to do some major rhetorical gymnastics to conclude anything else.
Perhaps the people voting for Trump see him differently than you do?
This argument could just as well be flipped the other way around; voting for a communist makes a person categorically a communist.
You don’t think Kamala is a communist? Exactly.
No one with any intellectual honesty thinks that Harris is a communist.
Maybe she’s not but her father was a marxist economist. Maybe that doesn’t mean anything to you but would you think the same about Donald’s father if he was a literal fascist? I doubt it.
You just keep assuming everyone sees the world the way you see. “No one with any intellectual honesty thinks that Harris is a communist.” is no different that the right claiming “No one with any intellectual honesty thinks that Trump is a fascist.”
If you want to win elections you need to get some of the people who voted for Trump to vote for your candidate the next time. Calling them fascists is not helping. It already got you Trump twice.
Maybe she’s not but her father was a marxist economist.
So the sins of the father are revisited on his daughter?
Sounds like you’re one of those “red scare” peeps buddy. I mostly agreed with you until you popped off with this crap.
What are you talking about? I said it had no bearing on what you were saying. Why are you feeling so defensive about something that I went out of the way to make sure to say wasn’t connected to what you said at all?
Use the block function people. Don’t feed the troll.
