In 2016:

$5.6 billion -- NOAA
$13.9 billion -- FEMA

Total: $18.9 billion.

So his "twenty trillion" claim is off by $19,981,100,000,000 -- nearly $20 trillion!

So he can rejoice -- the old budget already saves this.

As a fraction of twenty trillion, those sums are negligible, true enough.

Pathetic.

1) I voted.
2) I didn't support the corrupt Democratic Party.
3) I campaigned for and financially supported Sanders.

So pack up your straw man and go home.

Hurricane season starts with nobody in charge at FEMA or NOAA

Five months after Donald J. Trump was sworn in as president, no one has taken the reins at the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which is in charge of preparing for and then dealing with the aftermath of a hurricane. The last FEMA boss was a Florida man, W. Craig Fugate, who departed in January after seven years on the job. Fugate previously served as the head of the Florida Division of Emergency Management. Trump finally nominated someone at the end of April, but he has yet to be confirmed.

Trump meanwhile has made no move to appoint a new boss at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the agency in charge of the National Hurricane Center and the National Weather Service, which provide hurricane forecasts and hurricane warnings in advance of a storm.

Incidentally, NOAA Is predicting an above-average hurricane season this year. Trump's proposed budget has targeted both agencies for cuts.

I spoke about Leftists as a collective group. And collectively, you fucking failed.

We have President Trump because you guys couldn't bother to vote. That's partially Hillary's fault, mostly the DNC's fault and has absolutely nothing to do with those who voted for Trump.

The GOP boys voted for their dude. You just couldn't show up to vote for yours. Bitching about the consequences is like stabbing yourself in the eye and blaming the knife.

Yes, we know Trump isn't a good President but this constant whining about everything he does makes you look like a bunch of sociopathic children.

Your focus should be on the reinvention of the Democratic Party and the removal of the corrupt elements within. However that kind of introspection is foreign to Leftists.

Ya know, I can't help but wonder if, without a political wonk in charge, FEMA might actually do something in a timely manner when tasked to. NOAA will go on without a wonk in office for sure.
