Rolling Stone · Trump’s FEMA Denies North Carolina’s Request for Hurricane Helene AidBy Nikki McCann Ramirez

"Hurricane Helene ripped through North Carolina, leaving millions of cubic yards of destruction. Now,🚨FEMA's sudden decision to pull direct aid threatens to force North Carolina taxpayers to shoulder a shocking hundreds of millions of dollars. It's a #betrayal.

"Maybe North Carolina should buy $1M of Trump’s meme coin & see if that gets him to approve their FEMA request."

FactArrow · FEMA's Shocking Decision Leaves North Carolina Taxpayers on the Hook for Millions After HeleneBy Munachi Carter

"In a short memo sent to FEMA employees on Wednesday and obtained by CBS News, Richardson wrote, 'The 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan is hereby rescinded. The Strategic Plan contains goals and objectives that bear no connection to FEMA accomplishing its mission. This summer, a new 2026-2030 strategy will be developed. The strategy will tie directly to FEMA executing its Mission Essential Tasks.'"

The White House said in a stmnt that it was "aware of the cyber security incident at #Smarsh" but didn't offer comment on its use of the platform. #State didn't respond. The #SecretService said #TeleMessage products had been used "by a small subset of Secret Service employees" & that it was reviewing the situation. #FEMA said in an email that it had "no evidence" that its info had been compromised. It didn't respond when sent copies of internal FEMA msgs.

One of the intercepted texts' recipients - an applicant for aid from #FEMA confirmed to Reuters that the #leaked message was authentic; a financial services firm whose messages were similarly intercepted also confirmed their authenticity.

Based on its limited review, Reuters uncovered nothing that seemed clearly sensitive & did not uncover chats by #MikeWaltz or other cabinet ofcls.

Forecasters warned Mon that more tornados & storms were possible in the central US as ppl from TX to KY cleaned up from severe weather.💔Killed ~26 ppl in 4 days.

@AkaSci

No surprise. There are so many downed trees and power lines, that in order to fix the power lines, the streets need to be cleared of the trees so the power lines can be repaired. The trucks need to be able to travel.

FEMA needs to get large wood chipper trucks deployed to clear tbe streets. Currently, there is not much room to place the wood, even if you are in position to cut it up. Which most are not.

"It looks bad, ugly, violent. I am taking time to go searching for forecasts and am having to rely on independent meteorologists, experts on social media who have little in the way of a platform. The process of gathering information, of approaching the whole thing in an enlightened way, is getting harder and harder, whereas we have enjoyed so much access in the recent past that it feels maddening to be here."

"The elimination of these [weather-monitoring and -reporting] programs also serves another purpose, which is pushing the public into a new era of intentional ignorance. Yes, our climate is worsening, but a lack of empirical data and the sidelining of expert voices will curtail knowledge of that fact.

Even as I type this, I am watching a storm roll in over the horizon."
