I wish they could sue Trump and Musk personally for making dumb decisions.
Why didn't a well-funded FEMA prevent what happened in Puerto Rico?
Yeah, so how did a massive agency with plenty of money (over $30 BILLION annually) not immediately begin work to restock their Puerto Rico warehouses immediately after some of the supplies were sent to help with hurricane Irma?
That's roughly $1.5 million per employee of FEMA, so they should have plenty of funds after personnel costs for buying and transporting whatever emergency supplies they need.
Trump campaigned on cutting government services.
Everyone is okay with cutting a public service (at the expense of others) until they need that particular service

To clarify, I'm not cheering on this disaster or hoping that those who voted for Trump "get what they deserve"
But if you're in the mood for not feeling sympathy, because most cities have heat domes that tend to "push" storms away from them, storms tend to leave the more-liberal cities alone and instead wreak havoc through more rural towns.
And if immigration law hadn't been intentionally unenforced for the last 70 years the entire country would be red. What's your point?
Edit: Really? Downvote me for asking a super simple question? Sorry if I threaten the narrative.

You do not need a radio license as things can be called in by phone, too.
