He’s such a charitable guy!
White House outlines Maui fire response, says Biden is ‘deeply concerned’
The White House on Monday outlined steps being taken to aid Maui amid its deadly wildfires, and defended against questions about President Joe Biden’s response.
Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator Deanne Criswell said the president has ordered a “whole of government” approach to the fires, now the deadliest natural disaster in state history.
In fairness, Los Federales did mobilize to provide aid. However
To further assist survivors, FEMA has activated a transitional sheltering assistance program to help displaced residents find a hotel or motel, as well as a “critical needs” program to provide $700 to eligible people for food, water and other supplies.
You read that right
Over 2,700 structures were destroyed in Lahaina, Maui, valued at approximately $5.6 billion.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden, with $115 billion sent to Ukraine, offers just $1.9 million ($700 per household) to Lahaina.
This is deeply insulting. pic.twitter.com/nSwyuU8Vbt

Biden literally just sent another $200 million to Ukraine.
Biden is asking Congress for another $24 billion in assistance for Ukraine.
Meanwhile he is asking for just $12 billion for the Maui disaster relief despite Maui being a part of America. pic.twitter.com/EFwQCf5DPc

Bwaha! Lolgf
Well it will be harder for Biden to get his kick back off of the domestic money. When he spends money in the Ukraine it can be laundered through all kinds of unknown banks and shady unknown characters. If he’s gonna steal money here it’s gonna go through American banks which are harder to hide. Of course he could do what the Democrats usually do and give it the charities and NGO’s to distribute. Then he can get his kick back.
My home was burned to the ground in the Camp Fire in 2018. I would recommend to anyone in Maui to avoid using the Feds for anything. They will come back after you to recover money when insurance finally pays off. The Federal Government is a total clusterfuck in these situations.
As we transition to the Global Warmed Earth with the associated floods, wildfires, droughts, storms, lack of fresh water, etc, it will take us some time to adjust our infrastructures (seawalls, fire suppression protocols, warning systems, dams etc) but we’ll get there.
The Earth is warming and will continue to warm and we’ll have to adjust. We will.
But we do not possess the will to reduce CO2 emissions. It won’t be cheap, but we’ll learn to live with it.
Now, if only you could show evidence that those events are made worse by “climate change”, you might have something
You’re continuing an argument you’ve won! You must love to argue.
I said we will NOT do anything significant to reduce CO2 emissions so we need to learn to deal with the tragedies as they occur.
Are you now dead-set against preparing for natural disasters??
We should learn from the wildfires in Hawaii and make certain we have the fire-fighting infrastructure in place, an effective warning system and perhaps revisiting the growth of inflammable non-native grasses. See?
Miami and similar coastal cities can “harden” their shores and raise seawalls as Mr Trump did in Scotland.
Southerners can migrate north.
