Maddow Blog-In the spotlight, Kristi Noem brings the administration's brutal inefficiencies into focus

[wiggs]

2. OF COURSE feds won't be able to address problems and issues as well as it used to...not only are there fewer people and

fewer funds...but the people left often have less experience and have been given orders to conform to TSF's agenda and vision.

It amazes me that even today, after almost 7 months of context re what this administration is ALL about, pundits are giving the benefit of the doubt to the administration...imploring us to 'wait' for proof that FEMA didn't perform as well as in the past, calling it unfair (Dan Abrams) to blame Noem and FEMA.

At this point it is more realistic to just ASSUME there's incompetence, corruption, lack of empathy, misplaced agendas and then modify the position with subsequent info. What's the harm in pointing out all the strange unqualified people appointed or hired into the administration, and all the experience that has departed? Totally fine to wonder if there are consequences to taking a chain saw to programs! That should be a starting point!

And please MSM...the discussion of incompetence and endangerment of people shouldn't be limited to the outrage of the day/week (Texas flooding in this case)...this is happening nationwide and in most fed departments! Connect the dots please. Record measles outbreaks, hundreds of thousands of deaths overseas due to pulling the rug out from vulnerable people, tariff uncertainty and incompetence, alienation of allies, and much more.
