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.
If a bunch of people wearing the same uniform routinely threaten your life, you’re going to start avoiding people in that uniform. It’s not a double standard, it’s preservation of life.
Treating every Trump voter as a bigot is no different that treating every democrat as a communist. Can’t really blame people for not voting for communists, can you?
Were democrats the ones hunting down FEMA? You’re forgetting (or ignoring) the fact that Trump supporters, who identified themselves as such, were the ones who made active threats against the lives of FEMA members. Your democrat boogeyman doesn’t exist in this scenario.
What communists? I didn’t realize we had a communist on the ballot… Ever. Maybe Eugene Debs? So over 100 years ago.
If the Democrats were communists, instead of milquetoast centrist corporatists, you might have a point.
Except Democrats are capitalist pigs.
