The FEMA debacle in Texas is only the beginning….

 Mr. Trump’s budget proposal for the next fiscal year will close 10 laboratories run by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that research the ways a warming planet is changing weather. That work is essential to more accurately predicting life-threatening hazards. Among the shuttered labs would be one in Miami that sends teams of “hurricane hunters” to fly into storms to collect critical data. The proposed budget would also make major cuts to a federal program that uses river gauges to predict floods.

The president is also envisioning a dramatically scaled-down Federal Emergency Management Agency that would shift the costs of disaster response and recovery from the federal government to the states. The administration has already revoked $3.6 billion in grants from FEMA to hundreds of communities around the country.


Just hope YOU don’t need assistance from a disaster, cuz there won’t be any, unless Trump can figure a way to make MORE MONEY, by controlling who gets the contracts.
