(Crankers) Did you hear the story about the FEMA supervisor who was advising workers to avoid homes that looked like Trump supporters lived there? And this was taking place during a crisis where human beings may have needed help, but she let politics get the best of her and literally put people in possible danger. Yeah, that story is real.
The fired FEMA worker, named Marn’i Washington, is now speaking out and honestly, she’s making the story so much worse. It’s worse because she reveals that this practice was somewhat widespread throughout FEMA, meaning people were being placed in danger or risked losing out on recovery funds if their home was skipped.
Washington was telling people to “avoid homes advertising Trump” but it seems like it wasn’t only her. There may have been other people giving similar directions and that means the problem is deep-rooted in FEMA and needs to be fixed. People should never put politics over the well-being of a fellow human being and that’s what seems to have happened. Trending Politics reported on the fired FEMA supervisor, providing more details on the depth this problem went:
Washington, however, is claiming that the guidance was issued to all FEMA employees and was not limited to her team alone. During an appearance on the Roland Martin Unfiltered podcast Monday, Washington stated that workers were told to avoid homes deemed to be hostile or dangerous to workers.
“They all allege that these actions were made in my own recognizance and that it was for my own political advances. However, if you look at the record, there is what we call a ‘community trend,’ and, unfortunately, it just so happened that the political hostility that was encountered by my team … they just so happened to have the Trump campaign signage,” she said.
There’s definitely more to this story, but what is it? Were they ignoring Trump homes because of politics, or was there really some other issue that needed to be deescalated? Why would people who support Trump need to be deescalated when they’re frightened of losing everything to a hurricane? I think they they were discriminating over politics, and this wasn’t a de-escalation in progress. The last thing I would be doing, if a hurricane was in progress, would be giving FEMA workers a hard time. It just doesn’t make sense. Watch the video below:

Fema, myorki is planning with fema to detain reps. When they do not authorize the election. Jamie Raskin is involved with this also.
I think it is a dirty rotten shame that these people hold the offices that they do, getting big salaries. The whole damn
department needs to be demolished and re-vamped with competent, non-biased people. What a rotten way to treat Americans.
