They’re going to try to or will cut our aid. I’m convinced that’s why Biden is covering 100% of firefighter pay for 180 days. This is the third Republican that’s said this or something close to it.

Why should everyone do things their way? That is outrageous. There is ZERO proof that they do a better job with natural disasters or really much of anything!
Oh usually much worse but this is about power and control and nothing else.. It is their policies that almost led us into the 2nd Great Depression if Bush hadn’t bailed out Wall St & S & L’s in 2008 leaving Obama the 2008 recession to fix..🤦♀️
The GOP controlled Congress refused to fund the additional 20 billion Biden asked for BEFORE Helene hit and those were all GOP led states… then they turned around and used it to blame Biden..🤷♀️
And their foolish supporters who don’t read buy into it…
He & the GOP did it to his own voters in NC in 2017 so one shouldn’t be surprised, Elle.. While they talk a good game they are always about taking away programs the average American needs to help pay for the 50% tax cuts they have given the wealthy & corps since 1981
For all complaints about our debt it was Bush/ Trump that added 10.7 trillion to it for tax cuts and then spent an unbudgeted 14.5 trillion on Afganistan/ Iraq and Covid- 25.2 trillion of our 36 trillion debt…🤔
People need to get mad and fight and not just on social media.. but put into action.. Robert Reich points out we have fought the wealthy money grabs before and won on our country’s history and can do it again..
Read Project 2025- the plan he denied knowing about until after he was elected spells it out.. Get
Rid of FEMA… Get rid of FDIC deposit insurance that protects our regular bank deposits so if banks mismanage and fail we lose instead of being covered up to 250k per
Account ( like the stock market)🤦♀️
Before 1981 our leaders expected those that benefited the most in our country to also contribute the most to pay for those unbudgeted expenses like wars and pandemics.. not less…🤷♀️
Thom Hartmann has written several good books on the history of monopolies, Healthcare ( universal coverage not a new idea) and many other topics that I have found to be quite enlightening… Would recommend that people read his books for good background of the issues we face today
