Florida Sues FEMA Over Discrimination Against Trump Supporters
Last week, The Daily Wire revealed that FEMA allegedly withheld aid from houses in Florida adorned with Trump signs. Now, the state is seeking to hold the organization accountable.
From The Daily Wire. Florida is suing FEMA for allegedly discriminating against supporters of President-elect Donald Trump after a Daily Wire report revealed a supervisor directed relief workers in the Sunshine State to “avoid homes advertising Trump.”
Have you taken your place on the wall?
The suit, from Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, alleges that FEMA Director Deanne Criswell and now-fired supervisor Marn’i Washington conspired against the civil rights of Trump supporters in Lake Placid, Florida. The suit comes after whistleblowers told The Daily Wire they were directed to bypass the homes of people with Trump flags or yard signs when canvassing homes in Lake Placid to see if they qualified for hurricane assistance after Hurricane Milton. …
The suit, which cites reporting from The Daily Wire, accuses both Criswell and Washington of illegally depriving Trump supporters of federal aid. Moody filed the suit Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, Fort Pierce Division. …
The suit also points to an interview Washington gave to Roland Martin, where she said that FEMA has a widespread policy of avoiding “politically hostile” homes. Criswell has claimed the guidance was an “isolated incident” and not in accordance with FEMA policy. …
Moody asked FEMA to award damages to the defendants and for the court to declare that the agency had violated the civil rights of Floridians. …
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said that he backed the lawsuit and has announced that the state’s Division of Emergency Management is also investigating the incident. …

Did FEMA do the same thing for any other previous storms in other states?
Is anyone looking into that?
“For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.” Luke 8:17 NIV
LORD, You have done great things (Psalm 126), Great are You, LORD. Your eyes are on the righteous, Your ears are open to their cries, Your face is against those who do evil, You deliver us out of all our troubles and You are near the brokenhearted (Psalm 34).
I thank You that Your hand is on and in this. Thank You that those who are responsible for this “policy” will be swiftly exposed, swiftly expelled from their civic duties and replaced with people who adhere to the Constituation of this Nation.
Thank You for the whistleblowers. Send, raise up, compel and appoint and anoint more whistleblowers. More, Father, more. May more be revealed.
In the Anointed Name of Jesus. AMEN
