I Prayed have prayed
God, we pray for justice for the victims of Helene and Milton who were passed over by our federal government. We pray that the victims of these storms would receive the help they need, and that FEMA would be held accountable.

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. …

This was remedied with corrective action. What merit is there using future FEMA Agency resources to pay for a State lawsuit?

DEAR LORD GOD
PLEASE EXPOSE AND PUNISH THE TRAITORS WHO ATTEMPTED TO MURDER PEOPLE BY DENYING THEM THE HELP THEY SO DESPERATELY NEED, AND PAID FOR THROUGH ILLICIT TAXATION. LET THIS BE A LESSON TO AMERICA, WE MUST BE SELF SUFFICIENT AND BE WILLING TO HELP EACH OTHER COMPLETELY .
I ASK IN JESUS’ NAME
AMEN

Thank you, Father, for those who have stepped up to serve those whom the government did not feel worthy of being helped. May you be glorified by the actions of those who love you and people. Praise your name.

Father God, You are the Head of our Government and we thank you that You have the last word. We are asking that You would somehow speak to the adversaries. That are coming against the new Presidency and President Trump’s new appointees. Thank You Father God that You are setting every thing in motion for the new President and His cabinet. Direct them to trust in You and not make decisions without consulting You first, and Father we ask that You would shut the mouths of the lions as You did for Daniel, protect President Trump his family and our Government. In Jesus Mighty Name

I’m thankful for ministries like Samaritan’s Purse, CRI, Operation Blessing, and others who rush to the aid of the victims of natural disasters. Not only do they offer practical help but they extend spiritual comfort and hope through the Gospel. Bless them Lord, and prosper them in this calling – the church being Your hands and feet to those who need aid.

Not only Florida should press on with this pursuit, but also the states of North Carolina and Tennessee. I live in Pennsylvania where we were hit back in August with Debby and people are still waiting for help. I don’t believe that we had this particular problem, but people are still waiting for FEMA to make good.

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
