Two days after catastrophic floods roared through Central Texas, the Federal Emergency Management Agency did not answer nearly two-thirds of calls to its disaster assistance line, according to documents reviewed by The New York Times.
The lack of responsiveness happened because the agency had fired hundreds of contractors at call centers, according to a person briefed on the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss internal matters.
It used to be that there were consequences for fuckery like this. Congressional hearings, firings, resignations, getting blackballed from employment, and even impeachments. Now, it’s just another day with this inept and evil administration, and everyone just shrugs their shoulders.
🤮
I gotta say, three guns per person is starting to sound like a strength and not a weakness.
This been the status quo since Katrina (in terms of disaster response). Truly awful
