FEMA is supposedly constituted to provide help to Americans in the event of disaster, natural or man-made. They are funded and their personnel are paid by taxpayer dollars, which one would think that fact alone should ensure that said help would be provided without condition or qualification.

Unless, of course, a disaster victim has a Trump sign on their house. It seems that a FEMA supervisor in charge of the recovery workers in Lake Placid, Florida, ordered them as a "best practice" to skip houses with Trump signs, per a Daily Wire exclusive:

A federal disaster relief official ordered workers to bypass the homes of Donald Trump’s supporters as they surveyed damage caused by Hurricane Milton in Florida, according to internal correspondence obtained by The Daily Wire and confirmed by multiple federal employees. 

A FEMA supervisor told workers in a message to “avoid homes advertising Trump” as they canvassed Lake Placid, Florida to identify residents who could qualify for federal aid, internal messages viewed by The Daily Wire reveal. The supervisor, Marn’i Washington, relayed this message both verbally and in a group chat used by the relief team, multiple government employees told The Daily Wire. 

Granted, the Biden administration's response wasn't all that great from the top down.

The worst part is that the FEMA workers evidently did what they were told.

The government employees told The Daily Wire that at least 20 homes with Trump signs or flags were skipped from the end of October and into November due to the guidance, meaning they were not given the opportunity to qualify for FEMA assistance. Images shared with The Daily Wire show that houses were skipped over by the workers, who wrote in the government system messages such as: “Trump sign no entry per leadership.”

This is unforgivable. Florida, now Ron DeSantis's Florida, seems to have been much more on the spot:

Whistleblowers say that relief workers were told it was "best practice" to pass over houses "advertising Trump."

But, odd as it may seem, there's an opportunity here for the administration of befuddled old Joe Biden to make sure his presidency winds down on at least one high note, and it's really pretty simple:

Find out precisely who this FEMA supervisor was and fire them. Fire them with prejudice, and make sure they are never allowed to be a federal employee ever again, in any capacity. Do it publically, so this jerk will have to explain him- or herself whenever they apply for any job in the private sector. This supervisor seems to have been willing to screw over American taxpayers suffering from a natural disaster because of their political opinions, so let's screw them over in reply.

It would be a hell of a good example to set, pour encourager les autres.
