I don't know what this means, but I'm the one who wrote a fully updated, 624-page hurricane response plan at FEMA that took over 2 years of work and careful coordination among state and federal agencies. He could start by studying that.

Rep Eric Swalwell walked out in shock—and who could blame him? Every single GOP member on the House Judiciary Committee just voted to let Trump “deport” American citizens. This is illegal, authoritarian, and unforgivable 🤬 Time to call, write, & protest before the full House votes.
