One FEMA official described the strategic plan as the agency's "organizational backbone," saying, "Without it, there are just a bunch of offices doing whatever they feel like doing."

Less than two weeks until the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season, Federal Emergency Management Agency acting Administrator David Richardson has rescinded the agency’s strategic plan, a comprehensive policy document that outlines the disaster relief agency’s priorities.

    Scrapped the plan, and there is no plan. One coming “by Summer” which I assume is some FoxBarbie named Summer who will produce a poorly-stolen copy of a shitpost on stormfront about how FEMA should only help whites and then immediately petition the Supreme Court to let them do that.

    Richardson has been FEMA’s acting administrator for less than two weeks, replacing the agency’s former acting head, Cameron Hamilton, who was fired by the Trump administration after he told lawmakers he doesn’t believe eliminating FEMA is in the country’s “best interests.”

    It really would have been great if everyone had gone out to vote last November.
