With the Federal Emergency Management Agency reeling from major staffing and funding shortages amid the impact of Hurricane Helene, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) refused on Sunday to commit to reconvening the House before Election Day to aid recovery efforts. In response to a letter from President Biden urging congressional leaders back to replenish federal disaster loan funding, Johnson said during a Fox News Sunday interview that he’d only do so after the election—all but ensuring the funds will run out.

I’m disgusted that every time those fucking dimwits flip the bird to a dying populace, nobody makes a big stink about it. These fucking assholes are out for blood, yet a third of the nation is offering them selves up to the sacrifice altar, and the rest is doing fuck all!
And the media reinforces their narratives as well. I watched a portion of the 60 minutes interview and Harris might as well have been interviewed by Mike Johnson or Ted Cruz or something.
They do all of this posturing and pandering to the audience to try to pretend that they’re asking the tough questions, and Trump picks the easy route and faces zero scrutiny his entire campaign by practically hand picking every interviewer and interview question and they give him a complete pass.
Lol they aren’t offering themselves to the altar, because they don’t think they’re the ones being sacrificed.
They just want to be seated in the splash zone.
And it’s all about the upcoming election. They can’t allow Biden Admin to appear to have any kind of “win” prior to November.
If people actually gave a shit…
What’s the solution here? Other than voting of course.
Media attention
They’re only getting away with stuff like this because Republicans have historically been able to do anything they want without consequences.
If that is to change, then there have to be consequences.
