A Federal Emergency Management Agency worker has been fired after she directed workers helping hurricane survivors not to go to homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump, the agency’s leader said in a statement Saturday.
“This is a clear violation of FEMA’s core values and principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation,” FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell said. “This was reprehensible.”
The agency did not identify the employee, nor did it say where it happened.
But Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, calling it “targeted discrimination” of Florida residents who support Trump, said it happened in Florida.
Thia comment chain trying to justify this action is horrific. Jesus guys have a little compassion for ur fellow humans.
Why should I help a nazi that wants me dead?
Nah mate, first comes my life, then, yours. Basic self preservation. If you want to kill me, why should I risk my life to save yours?
It’s sad, but with magas, it’s come to this.
Dont u think ur being a little extreme calling all Trump supporters nazis?
U could make a simmillar argument againts the gays helping palestine.
Uh… That’s not really the point here. There are people hunting FEMA workers there for… reasons, so while we don’t have the whole story I doubt this was a politically motivated decision as much as one made for self-preservation.
Not really, no. If you voted for trump, you knew his stance on stpff like inmigration, abortion and lgbt+ rights. You either voted him for those or you didn’t care about those people as long as you were fine with his other politics. And either way… well, yeah, yow are pretty much a nazi. Actively or passively.
So ur argument is doing nothing is just as bad as activly doing something? What about the 1.8million people who died of tuberculosis last year? I dont see u doing anything does that make u complicit?
You see? There’s a thing: trump voters did a thing: they voted.
Besides, even if we accept your premise of doing nothing, there’s still a difference: A voter can do something to change the outcome of the election. What can I do to avoid tuberculosis deaths?
