Kamala Harris on Wednesday visited Augusta, Georgia and legacy media fawned over how she was "consoling" victims of Hurricane Helene.
How will the Biden-Harris team help the victims?
With a one-time emergency assistance payment of ... $750.
Department of Homeland (DHS) Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas said: "We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season."
Why is FEMA broke?
"The Biden-Harris administration took more than a billion tax dollars that had been allocated to the agency responsible for American disaster relief and used it to offer services for illegal immigrants," Tristan Justice reported for The Federalist on Oct. 1.
FEMA allocated nearly $364 million in the fiscal year 2023 and $650 million for the 2024 fiscal year to the “Shelter and Services Program” “to provide humanitarian services to noncitizen migrants following their release from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),” according to the government’s website.
According to FEMA's own website, the agency's top priorities under the Biden-Harris administration do not include disaster relief. The website states that FEMA's goals include, first, instilling “equity as a foundation of emergency management,” and second, “lead[ing] whole of community in climate resilience.” The goal to “promote and sustain a ready FEMA and prepared nation” ranks third.
Justice wrote for The Federalist: "While FEMA routinely prepares for colossal rescue operations with resources lined up in the days ahead of major storms, such pre-staged support was clearly not available to residents in the Appalachian towns that were washed away by overwhelming rains from Hurricane Helene. Hundreds remain missing as the storm becomes the Biden administration’s 'Katrina moment.' "
John Davidson, senior editor at The Federalist, wrote: “Democrats sailed to a massive victory in the 2006 midterms, campaigning on Bush’s allegedly flat-footed Katrina response and the unpopular war in Iraq, rendering the president impotent for his last two years in office. Now Vice President Kamala Harris is running for the Oval Office while coordinating a staged photo pretending to work on the disaster response (earbuds not even plugged into the phone, taking notes on a blank piece of paper), together with the absence of FEMA or any other federal assistance to storm-ravaged areas of western North Carolina and Georgia."
Meanwhile, over about a one-week period late last month, the Biden-Harris administration announced $8.7 billion in military aid for Israel; $8 billion more in military aid for Ukraine; and $567 million in military support for Taiwan.
In almost one week, the Biden-Harris administration approved:

Yesterday I exclusively reported that the federal and state government has abandoned Americans in North Carolina.
People keep asking me WHY. Days before Hurricane Helene, the media was helping Democrats push for more FEMA funding. FEMA funds are being abused and given to… pic.twitter.com/QRTigcR0i8 — Breanna Morello (@BreannaMorello) October 3, 2024

Over the last 4 years the Biden-Harris admin has steadily transformed FEMA — the agency responsible for responding to natural disasters like Hurricane Helene — into an illegal alien resettlement agency that emphasizes DEI over public safety.
