(BPR) The FEMA supervisor fired over her message about Trump supporters revealed the extent of the “colossal event of avoidance.”
“Senior leadership will lie to you…”
Concerns over the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s handling of recent hurricanes have grown much worse than mere mismanagement. In fact, after supervisor Marn’i Washington was fired for allegedly telling employees to “avoid homes advertising Trump” she joined Roland Martin’s “Unfiltered” podcast to assert the issue wasn’t isolated to the Sunshine State.
Having already asserted that the agency was treating her as a “scapegoat,” Washington detailed Monday that the message originally reported by the Daily Wire was a widespread policy on avoiding “politically hostile” homes.
“FEMA always preaches avoidance first, and then de-escalation. So this is not isolated. This is a colossal event of avoidance, not just in the state of Florida, but you will find avoidance in the Carolinas,” she added as western North Carolina in particular had been devastated by Hurricane Helene.
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

“Senior leadership will lie to you and tell you that they do not know,” but, she argued further to Martin, incident reports would “substantiate what is happening to us in the field.”
