Hmmmm.....could the silent majority turn Minnesota to DJT? I doubt it. I think this just motivates the Dems to get out the vote in hopes that Biden cuts them a check. In fact, I’m expecting Joe to announce that very thing in 5....4....3....
They are also responsible for the rest of the country’s riots (aka demonstrations).
Not true. Look at all the tax dollars that go to questionable cherities. George Soros has 199 charities that probably get billions and supports Antifa and lots of bad people.
And THIS, in spite of his significant personal flaws, is an example of why he is a GREAT President.
Actions, do, indeed, have consequences! As do inactions!
You allowed and encouraged these BLM/atifa/OFA/George Soros thugs to cause $500 million in damages, you must pay for those damages!
Be tough, President Trump! Stand firm! Don't allow FEMA (i.e., US poor suffering U.S.A. taxpayers) to pay for these criminal misdeeds!
Yeah .... since when ?
I wonder if it will come down to somehow providing aid to those not responsible for the riot damage (i.e. businesses) without passing the funds through Minnesota’s government.
Democrats have gotten away with so much over the many years they expect to get away with even more. Hold the line. The Democrats have to lose on this, and so much more.
In 2015, however, FEMA, under the Obama administration, denied aid to the state of Maryland after rioting in Baltimore over the death of Freddie Gray, a Black man who died in police custody. Maryland appealed the decision and was again rejected.
The Damages should be paid for exclusively by the Public Employee’s of the State, even if it means SEIZING THEIR ASSETS!
FEMA is bound by the Stafford Act, which defines a disaster:
“(2) Major Disaster - “Major disaster” means any natural catastrophe (including any hurricane, tornado, storm, high water, wind driven water, tidal wave, tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption, landslide, mudslide, snowstorm, or drought), or, regardless of cause, any fire, flood, or explosion, in any part of the United States, which in the determination of the President causes damage of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant major disaster assistance under this Act to supplement the efforts and available resources of States, local governments, and disaster relief organizations in alleviating the damage, loss, hardship, or suffering caused thereby.”
It is the President’s call based on what I read.
Good for Trump for not subsidizing and rewarding bad behavior!
