[LegalInsurrection] “…alleged text messages from Washington, DC to the supervisor advising them and directing them to do this. So somebody higher up within FEMA was advising the people on the ground to do this.”

Rep. Greg Staube (R-FL) revealed on Fox News that someone or persons in Washington, DC, sent text messages to the FEMA supervisor, who directed people to skip houses supporting Donald Trump after Hurricane Milton.
STAUBE: If it was happening in Lake Placid, it’s happening all across the great state of Florida. Probably happening in western North Carolina. Probably happening all of the states that were hit by Hurricane Helene, and that’s what we in Congress need to get to the bottom of. FEMA, the administration wants to say this was an isolated incident, but there are alleged text messages from Washington, DC to the supervisor advising them and directing them to do this. So somebody higher up within FEMA was advising the people on the ground to do this. So if it was happening in Lake Placid, I can guarantee you it was happening in other places, all across the great state of Florida and the country. And the Oversight Committee needs to get to the bottom of this. The very first stop would be the person who was fired. Put them under oath and ask them who in their chain of command was directing her to do this. There’d be some interesting testimony.
BILL HEMER: You touched on this a moment ago. Ron DeSantis, your governor, sent this out on X, “The blatant weaponization of government by bipartisan activists in the federal bureaucracy is yet another reason why the Biden Harris administration is in its final days.” Can you reflect on that at all? That last point there, coming off this election. Read the rest at the link
