Trump proposes ‘getting rid of FEMA’ while touring disaster areas

President Donald Trump says he is considering “getting rid of” the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He made the remark Friday while visiting North Carolina, which is still recovering months after Hurricane Helene, on the first trip of his second term. Instead of having federal financial assistance flow through FEMA, the Republican president said Washington could provide money directly to the states. In fire-ravaged California, the state’s Democratic leaders pressed Trump for federal assistance that he’s threatened to hold up, some setting aside their past differences to shower him with praise. Trump, in turn, pressured local officials to waive permitting requirements so people can immediately rebuild.
