I don't know if the people dismantling everything good/helpful/positive about the federal gov't think this far ahead (doubtful), but…
…to put all this stuff back after #DonnieDumbass does away with it… #VOA, #FEMA, thousands of #IRS agents, #Superfund Cleanup, #DeptOfEducation, etc…
…it's going to cost SO much money just to put everything back, #Republicans are going to run on "#Democrats want to explode the size of government" for the next two decades.
Check out the #fema.gov website
“FEMA.gov is being updated to comply with President Trump's Executive Orders. Thank you for your patience and understanding.”

33 people were killed by #tornadoes and #DustStorms (?!) from #Texas to #Arkansas. https://www.accuweather.com/en/severe-weather/severe-weather-disaster-33-dead-after-destructive-tornadoes-wildfires-and-dust-storms-sweep-across-us/1754990
Meanwhile #DonaldTheDeplorable is gutting #FEMA and begging #Denmark for #eggs.
#fema is not coming to help. #tornados #Missouri
#cameronHamilton, a local here who lost his party primary last year for #congress, was appointed to dismantle #fema, and needs to be tracked down by the #media. #joshhawley and the rest of the #magat delegation, will be of no help.
Call them anyway. Flood the Capitol Hill switchboard
Call your Missouri Governor. They asked—-nay prayed—-for this.

A sobering peek into the future when #NaturalDisasters are wrecking communities and no one is paying attention and no one from #FEMA or other government agencies are coming to help, because they have been dismantled.
Tornadoes in #RedStates #Kansas #Arkansas #Missouri. #26Dead Guess #MAGATS didn't pray hard enough. Didn't #MuskCut #FEMA? Great #DOGE #Efficiency. #Jesus is #Angry And #IDontCare #DontGiveAFuck #DoYou?
Latest reports say at least 20 died in severe storms in Missouri, Arkansas, Texas and other states overnight. Heavy property damage to homes, businesses, infrastructure. There are more tornado warnings today.
I sincerely hope that FEMA has enough remaining staff and resources to help these people.

MAGA social media accounts keep demanding to know "how did FEMA help North Carolina". Actually, they helped in a lot of ways (when MAGA North Carolinians weren't shooting at them).

Don't know who is behind them, but propaganda accounts on X/Twitter are falsely accusing FEMA of not doing its job in previous disasters in response to complaints today about the Trump administration's defunding of FEMA as fires, floods, and tornadoes spread across the United States.
So the right-wing propaganda machine is fully funded and operating smoothly and efficiently.
Where is Trump? What happened to #AmericaFirst? He's disbanding #FEMA? Americans are suffering.
They are preparing to rebuild on their own but we should be sending relief. It's shameful.
WHERE IS TRUMP?

"A 30-day funding freeze enacted by the #Trump administration at #FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, has caused an immediate pause to the millions of dollars distributed to help vulnerable #nonprofits, including many #Jewish institutions, meet their #security needs.
#Synagogues, Jewish day schools and other organizations that rely on the FEMA funding dispersed through the Nonprofit Security Grant Program have not received reimbursements allocated to them, according to representatives from the Secure Community Network, an organization that provides security services to Jewish nonprofits."

CBS News: Federal funding cuts lead FEMA to cancel classes at National Fire Academy
"The Federal Emergency Management Agency announced that National Fire Academy courses were canceled amid a "process of evaluating agency programs and spending to ensure alignment with Administration priorities," according to a notice sent to instructors, students and fire departments. Instructors were told to cancel all future travel until further notice.
Firefighters, EMS providers and other first responders from across the country travel to the NFA's Maryland campus for the federally funded institution's free training programs."
