WASHINGTON — Federal Emergency Management Agency officials expect that they will soon be drawn deeper into the nationwide effort to resettle Afghan refugees, adding another complex challenge to a crushing shower of disasters that has cascaded down on the beleaguered agency over the last 18 months.

The White House recently named Bob Fenton, the agency's former acting administrator and head of its Region 9 office, to lead the Homeland Security Department's resettlement task force....

..."FEMA is stretched thin, relying on an overworked workforce," said a second agency official who spoke on condition of anonymity. "We were not designed to be America's 911."

FEMA. Add them to the list of dysfunctional agencies. Agencies which consume vast tax dollars and produce nothing or worse, produce harm.

Really? They have a workforce of 11,300 (FY20) and a budget of about $28 billion. In addition to disaster response, they also train state and local responders and direct affected states and communities toward low interest loans (for example).

They exist to help coordinate a national response to disasters that overwhelm states and districts, not do all the disaster response themselves.

FEMA is part of DHS.

AFGHAN “REFUGEES”
We are not dealing with theories here. Since 2014, GERMANY and AUSTRIA have been an empirical laboratory of what happens to a country that imports Afghan “refugees.” The list below, from Germany/Austria alone, does NOT include dozens or rapes, “grooming” of male and female children for sex, assault and battery, arson, and lesser offenses. But the Afghan blessing has been bestowed on other EU countries too, e.g.
SWEDEN
“Five Afghan teens in Sweden charged with raping boy”
“Afghan Migrants Gang Rape Autistic Woman”
“Two Afghan migrants jailed for up to two years for raping a woman as their friend broadcasted it over Facebook Live”
NETHERLANDS
“Two US citizens hurt in Amsterdam after 19-yr-old Afghan stabs them”
BELGIUM
“Belgian police shot an Afghan migrant at Ghent station after the man approached officers, threatening to attack them, and ignored orders to drop a knife”
UK
“Afghan serial rapist who came to UK in a lorry attacked a pregnant woman at knife point in her own bed and another victim as she slept next to her husband”

Expecting federal employees to work is inhumane.

A Competent government would have placed the following conditions on their ‘refugee’ status.

The have 6 months grace period to find another country to move to. The default is a parachute over Pakistan.

Within those 6 months there is no shari’a law, no burqas, no female genital mutilation, no honor killings, no mosques.

If they publicly denounce Islam they may apply for a visa to allow them become US immigrants, with no right of chain migration outside of immediate family as shown by blood test.
