It's not the Federal Hurricane Management Agency. It's the ...

Federal
Emergency <---
Management
Agency

Maybe don't declare "emergencies" if you don't want FEMA money being spent on it? :o)

Also you don't have to worry about Florida. We don't want no stinking big government federal money anyway.

There are far more costly ways to deal with migrants than putting them up in five-star hotels and multifamily projects.

A bullet costs less than $2 for example.

Immigration isn't an emergency it is a crisis. A crisis the Biden team created.

"SEC. 102. As used in this Act—
(1) EMERGENCY.—‘‘Emergency’’ means any occasion or instance for which, in the determination of the President, Federal assistance is needed to supplement State and local efforts and capabilities to save lives and to protect property and public health and safety, or to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in any part of the United States.
(2) MAJOR DISASTER.—‘‘Major disaster’’ means any natural catastrophe (including any hurricane, tornado, storm, high water, winddriven water, tidal wave, tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption, landslide, mudslide, snowstorm, or drought), or, regardless of cause, any fire, flood, or explosion, in any part of the United States, which in the determination of the President causes damage of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant major disaster assistance under this Act to supplement the efforts and available resources of States, local governments, and disaster relief organizations in alleviating the damage, loss, hardship, or suffering caused thereby."

If immigration is an emergency then "or to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in any part of the United States" the way to do that would be build the wall and start mass deportation. The immigrants being the emergency removing the immigrants solves the emergency.

Looking forward if President Biden did use FEMA funds for immigration policies President Trump will be able to use them (if there is any to be used) to deport and build the wall. President Biden will have designated the emergency and it would be to President Trumps' discretion to clean it up.

How did Biden create it when Trump ran on it back in 2016?

Remember "Build the wall"?

look at the immigration numbers during the Trump years and the Biden years then punish yourself for asking such a stupid question.

Trump? Yep I can see it now. Your house gets destroyed and you lose everything in a Hurricane. The new Trump Relief Agency shows up with some things like water and maybe food. You ask for help and they ask you for your citizenship papers to insure you are an American citizen.

"You ask for help and they ask you for your citizenship papers to insure you are an American citizen."

Seems like a reasonable thing to ask before handing out new homes.

Was it reasonable for Trump to do a credit check on Puerto Rico before he went there and tossed paper towels to the citizens?

I suppose that all police calls will have to be vetted to see if those calling for help need to be confirmed as US citizens.

EMTs will need to see your papers before giving aid.

Fire fighters will need to make sure you aren't illegal before putting out your house fire.

Turns out this story was 100% bullshit.

Don't believe all the right wing bullshit that you read on the internet.

Better yet, don't believe ANY of the right wing bullshit you read on the internet.

Even better, don't read right wing bullshit.
