Trump halts federal funds for Calif. wildfires, forest management

Anti-human, pro-lizard people. Trump must be king of the lizard folk from Middle Earth.

Time to impeach.  Even the Republicans have to know this will lose elections.  Can he be impeached for endangering… basically the whole Country with stuff like this and the deliberate shutdown?

Republicans dominate certain parts of California. Other western states are solidly red. They live on federal welfare programs that subsidize grazing, timber, irrigation, etc. If Trump starts messing with right wing welfare, the western states Congress critters will turn on him in a heartbeat. Much more of this and they will impeach him.

Sounds like if you’re a group of US citizens who are hurting, you’re boned.

Government to spite the people.

Like to clear cut, mine and frack for bucks, privatize Veterans services, event he military, etc… He is hitting all the right notes for that. These people need to be removed asap. Is there no way??????

(insert picture of backward shooting gun here)

His basic assumptions: that no one really cares about illegal immigrants, except for the 1%’s desire to and use them to undercut American wages and erode American social cohesion. But he wants to use anti immigrant racism for his own purposes, so he is trying to force the 1% to order the Democrats to give up on a symbolic, sure-to-fail “wall”. Will CA Democrats continue to fight for a group they really don’t give an F for if it costs them some real consequences? (Ag and Logging Company bribes) Or will the Democrats get away with saying that if he wants more tax cuts, more oil subsidies, more money for Saudi and Israeli wars and American war profits he will have to let them win on their symbolic issue?

Of course, he could probably still get his Big Mac and fries.

IF he can do this then is there anything that he cannot exempt from FEMA help? How about the hurricanes in the south, or tornadoes in the Midwest, or earthquakes and floods in the whole nation? These fires and the other disasters are exactly what FEMA was created to address. So there is not a area in the country that should not be quaking in their boots – are you next?

California has a lot of right-wingers who voted for this nut.  NOT a smart move.

Wonderful way to prevent fires.  Not.

I cant believe he can get away with this.  Does he even have the authority?  My understanding is that the house and Senate typically vote on disaster aid… could be wrong.  He can… what, just suddenly decide we arent going to help?

I wonder what will happen if he does declare a National emergency or whatever.  Will the dems just continue to sit on their hands and say “Eh, what can ya do?  Guy is crazy!  Vote for us!”

I’ve heard some argue they should do exactly that – but that is political game playing.  I dont think Trump is playing on this one.

If people from both parties dont step up soon….

Then I suppose we will discover what complete economic collapse looks like in the year 2019.

He’s such an asshole.

Help me Obi Won. You’re my only hope.
