Noem forcing FEMA staff to tell on colleagues or be fired. [View all]
Staff at the Federal Emergency Management Agency have been warned they’ll face termination if they don’t tattle on who signed an open letter criticizing Kristi Noem and Donald Trump’s disaster response plans.

Of the 192 current and former FEMA employees who signed the damning open letter, 154 chose to remain anonymous. A division within FEMA that investigates employee misconduct is now interviewing staff members and pressuring them to reveal who signed or distributed the letter under threat of dismissal if they refuse to comply, sources told Bloomberg.
The letter cited a new rule imposed by Noem requiring her to review all DHS contracts and grants over $100,000 as a key concern.
That added layer of bureaucracy was blamed for delaying the approval of vital federal aid for flood-ravaged parts of Texas in July—which left around 135 people dead—for three days.
