  1. [Ron DeSantis Not Relying on FEMA As Florida Braces for Hurricane Milton](https://www.newsweek.com/ron-desalts-not-relying-fema-hurricane-milton-1965526)

    >”You saw in western North Carolina, you saw people that were very desperate. So I authorized air assets, National Guard, state guard, Highway Patrol, to go into western North Carolina. You have a situation where the first people that they come in contact with is some state guard unit from Florida and not any of the federal assets,” he said.

    So everyone knows. FEMA is seldom the ‘first’ one in during/after a disaster. They’re logistics, coordination and sustained support more than a rescue organization. DeSantis knows this. He’s fucking with everyone. National Guard and State Police are usually the front line in terms of rescue for hurricanes.

    So…stay away from helping the people that vote pretty much red in the area that’s going to get hit? Bold strategy tiny boots!

  3. There once was a governor from the Sunshine State,

    Who scoffed that hurricanes would soon be their fate,

    He campaigned as a Republican to the Florida Folks,

    And convinced them that global warming was all just a hoax,

    His name was Governor Ronald DeSantis,

    Who will be known for making Florida, Atlantis.

  4. The fact there is no recourse for things like this just prove again and again that our system is broken. You should be thrown in jail for letting people die to try to make an opponent look bad.

    When is his term as governor up? I can’t wait for the citizens of Florida to vote his behind out, can’t believe he’s playing politics with human lives, in the wake of the monster hurricane Milton 🌀 heading it’s way towards Tampa, St. Petersburg , and Clearwater with huge storm surge. And now he’s blaming Democrats for this, how rude but then again it’s on brand for him to do this. It’s obvious 🙄 that Death Santis doesn’t give a flying F about his own constituents, who doesn’t except FEMA aide on behalf of his constituents in the wake of massive damage this terrifying hurricane will leave behind. I can’t with him!
