Trump Considers "Getting Rid Of FEMA" While Visiting NC Hurricane Victims

1 week ago President Donald Trump says he's considering “getting rid of FEMA.” He made the comments Friday during a visit to hurricane-battered North Carolina. He's also planning to stop in wildfire-ravaged Los Angeles. It's the first trip of his second term. Trump has frequently blended politics and disasters, and Friday will likely be no different. He has sharply criticized President Joe Biden's administration for its handling of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina, and he's suggested withholding money from California unless it changes water policies. Trump will follow those stops with a Saturday victory rally in Las Vegas.
