Olivia Troye on the FEMA threats: We must reject this dangerous behavior, America is better than this.
Olivia of Troye
This is an alarming moment for country. FEMA's life-saving disaster recovery efforts in North Carolina were disrupted due to threats against federal workers by militias, forcing aid to be paused in hard-hit areas. As communities struggle in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, disinformation & intimidation only deepen the crisis, putting both survivors & responders at greater risk. We must reject this dangerous behavior, stand by those in need & ensure truth & safety prevail in disaster relief efforts. America is better than this.

It just makes me think how much worse things will get in the lead up to the election.
