And we are despicable, reprehensible, and trash? A "basket of deplorables"?

The Federal Emergency Management Agency terminated an employee who the agency said told her survivor assistance team to avoid homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign.

FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell said Saturday the employee’s conduct was reprehensible.

“This is a clear violation of FEMA’s core values and principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation,” Criswell said. “This type of behavior and action will not be tolerated at FEMA and we will hold people accountable if they violate these standards of conduct.”

Criswell said the agency referred the matter to the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, an independent federal investigative and prosecutorial agency.
FEMA didn’t identify the employee or say where she worked. The agency didn’t respond to a request for additional information.

Conservative news site the Daily Wire reported Friday that the employee directed relief workers to skip homes with Trump signs in Lake Placid, Fla., in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton.

Milton slammed into Florida last month, killing more than 20 people and left millions without power.

FEMA had come under criticism from lawmakers for the agency’s response to Hurricane Helene. Two weeks later, the agency had to scramble to confront Milton.
Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis said the actions of the FEMA employee were a “blatant weaponization of government by partisan activists.”
“At my direction, the Division of Emergency Management is launching an investigation into the federal government’s targeted discrimination of Floridians who support Donald Trump,” DeSantis said Friday on X.
