Yep and apparently forgot to have tanker trucks waiting to refill these gas stations as they empty so people can evacuate and doesn't want to reach out for FEMA Aid to help. He's so petty. Just like the levees he didn't concern himself to shore up the last time, causing the levy to give way and putting all of those people's houses underwater inland they had to suffer for weeks longer than the people at the beach because they were experiencing their homes being underwater After the Storm

[@bonnieabrs1003]

Just what’s that going to do? He’s doing very well without turning Florida into another NC! DeSantis even sent our emergency teams to NC when our folks received restored electricity.

AP news and FEMA has already debunked much of the misinformation. Biden also asked Speaker of the House Johnson to call the reps in for a quick vote to up the funding for FEMA. Johnson declined and said wait for the end of the election. Now look at what Florida is up against. Thanks Mr. Johnson I hope that was not a politics before people move on your part.

“With erosion and whatnot” ya bro why is that desantis? Do you think maybe funding the infrastructure of a state with massive water dilemmas would be a good idea? It’s not like you have some of the most qualified and capable experts who could actually do a great job of doing what’s possible to prepare Florida for an increasing onslaught of water.
