Storms Won’t Wait. Government Failure Did.
Clock’s ticking to 2026. Your safety is on the ballot.
Hurricane season is here. Today, not later.
FEMA should be ready.
It isn’t.
CNN found that Trump’s Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem and her aide Corey Lewandowski choked FEMA for over a year.
More than $15 billion in disaster money sat stuck.
Roughly 1 in 5 workers gone.
Even basic bills went unpaid — including security teams guarding dangerous materials like anthrax.
That’s not politics. That’s public safety.
One California district begged for a $2.5 million wildfire grant that had already been awarded. It still didn’t move.
Months lost. Homes exposed.
Even Republicans sounded the alarm. A GOP senator told Noem, “You failed at FEMA,” as Politico reported. The New York Times said her disaster-aid handling angered some in her own party.
They broke the basics.
Evacuations, shelters, debris removal, power back on. This is the boring work that saves lives.
Instead, we got power games and paralysis as storms form.
Yes, new appointees are trying to unwind the damage. But damage control isn’t readiness.
Sirens don’t wait for signatures.
You do not have to be a Democrat to reject this.
You just have to want a government that can keep the lights on and the water safe when the wind hits your roof.
Choose competence over chaos in 2026.
