FEMA Worker Being Scapegoated for Denying Hurricane Aid to Trump Supporters Says It was Agency Policy in Florida and The Carolinas
The FEMA official who was just fired for telling workers to avoid homes impacted by the hurricanes in Florida if they had Trump signs says that it was not “isolated” and that FEMA workers were instructed to do it in the Carolinas too. (X)
The American people must get justice. Indict and convict.
So, apparently this FEMA “skipping over Trump supporters” story is 100% true and not just this employee’s rogue decision: it’s agency policy. Wow. pic.twitter.com/b5MaZK3k0A

And now that fired employee is talking.
And she’s claiming she did not go rogue, she was **following the same FEMA policy** that was being implemented in NC also.

This is incredible.
FEMA worker accused of telling staff to skip hurricane-ravaged Trump homes claims it was common practice: ‘This is not isolated’
By Emily Crane and Ryan King, NY Post, Nov. 12, 2024:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency supervisor accused of telling staff to skip hurricane-ravaged homes that had Trump campaign signs claims it wasn’t an “isolated” incident — and that she’s been hung out to dry.
Marn’i Washington, who was fired last week over the saga, broke her silence in an interview with YouTube podcaster Roland Martin Monday, arguing she had just been following FEMA protocol.
“FEMA preaches avoidance first, and then de-escalation. This is not isolated. This is a colossal event of avoidance,” Washington, 39, said.
“Not just in the state of Florida. You will find avoidance in the Carolinas.”
“Senior leadership will lie to you and tell you that they do not know,” she added.
Washington accused FEMA of lying after the federal agency said she had no authority to give the directive to disaster relief workers who were canvasing homes in Lake Placid, Fla., in the wake of last month’s Hurricane Milton.
The FEMA official said her supervisor had approved the message – and that there were incident reports that would prove some residents had shown “political hostility” to workers in the area.
“Senior leadership will lie to you and tell you that they do not know, but if you ask the [Disaster Survivor Assistance] crew leads and specialists what they’re experiencing in the field, they will tell you,” she said.
“Demand for FEMA to give you those incident reports, they will substantiate what is happening to us in the field.”
“FEMA’s very well aware of the incidents that take place, not just with my crew, but with all the crews in the states,” Washington added.
