RUTHFULLY YOURS

A Federal Emergency Management Agency employee has been fired after they advised their disaster relief team to avoid homes with signs supporting former President Donald Trump while canvassing in Florida in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton, the agency’s administrator said Saturday.

FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell called the actions of the employee “reprehensible” and said they have been terminated from their role.

“More than 22,000 FEMA employees every day adhere to FEMA’s core values and are dedicated to helping people before, during and after disasters, often sacrificing time with their own families to help disaster survivors,” Criswell wrote in a post on X before describing the employee’s actions. “This is a clear violation of FEMA’s core values & principles to help people regardless of their political affiliation.”

“This was reprehensible. I want to be clear to all of my employees and the American people, this type of behavior and action will not be tolerated at FEMA and we will hold people accountable if they violate these standards of conduct,” she added.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer invited Criswell to testify at a hearing on November 19 to discuss the incident and FEMA’s recent response to natural disasters, including Hurricanes Helene and Milton, he said in a Saturday letter to Criswell.

“In the wake of the recent major disasters that impacted Americans of all political persuasions, it is critical that FEMA adheres to its disaster relief mission,” the Kentucky Republican wrote.

CNN reported Friday that the employee had been removed from their role and that the incident was under investigation. The agency did not identify the employee and said it believed it was “an isolated incident.”

“The employee who issued this guidance had no authority and was given no direction to tell teams to avoid these homes,” a FEMA spokesperson said Friday.

So you thought that a 312-vote Electoral College victory, an improbable popular-vote triumph, a flip of the U.S. Senate and, as of this writing, retention of a GOP House majority settled matters?

You thought common sense and true normalcy would return to government, society, and the culture?

As if. Don’t kid yourselves. The least intelligent, least articulate, and most incompetent presidential candidate ever may have failed to attain the Democrats’ customary deep blue state-fueled popular majority. 

But the reality is that America remains a deeply divided, essentially 50-50 nation. Meaning that:

Millions out there still consider the “right” to snuff babies’ lives out in the womb to preserve women’s careers and hook-up culture more important than getting married and raising a family. (Note: Six of nine state referenda establishing late-term abortion as a constitutional right passed, half in deep-red states, with only a supermajority requirement narrowly saving Florida.)
Millions more still think men can be women and women men, and members of the same sex can be “married.” Sophists and groomers will keep terrorizing “misgendering” employers and fellow workers and “trans/homophobic” politicians; pushing to mutilate children; and infiltrating schools and public spaces with propaganda, pornography, and drag queen stories.
Some 19% of Americans will habitually puff on legal weed, damaging young brains and endangering public safety, a gateway to the fentanyl poisoning a generation. 
Repeat criminals will continue to be coddled by Soros-loyal local prosecutors.

President Donald Trump’s election victory on November 5 was an epochal event in American history. The American people gave Trump a mandate with almost 51% of the vote. He received over 73 million votes, more than four million more than his opponent. A new American coalition—traditional Republican voters united with lower middle class, working class, African Americans, Hispanics, and white women—provided the monumental victory. At such a significant time, it is important to consider how America arrived at such a historical moment and what must be accomplished in the years ahead.

Retrospectively, Americans must understand how they came to this place in their history. According to the exit polls, a whopping 72% of Americans understood that their country was on the wrong path. America’s political ideology, culture, and traditions were under assault by the so-called “progressive” wing of the Democrat Party. The Biden-Harris administration weakened the economy, caused inflation rates not seen since the 1970s, opened U.S. borders to some 15 million people and facilitated their relocation throughout the U.S. and so weaponized the legal system to wage lawfare against Trump, his major political and legal advisors, and against many of his supporters.

In the realm of foreign and defense policy, the debacle of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, the failure to deter the war in Ukraine, the horrific attacks against Israel on October 7, 2023, and the subsequent wars it unleashed. Significantly, the Biden-Harris regime failed to deter Communist China’s hyper-aggression directed against U.S. allies like the Philippines and partners like Taiwan, and most importantly against the American people through the deaths of a quarter of a million of our fellow citizens from Chinese-provided fentanyl and the intellectual capture of so many of the American elite who parrot the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) policy positions to advance the CCP’s interests.

The deeper cause of how America arrived at this point is the embrace of Marxism by the Democratic Party and thus its increasing totalitarianism and alienation from the American people. In its embrace of this ideology, the Democrat Party demonstrated that it had completely become detached from the American experience, ideology, history, and culture in its effort to transform America into a one-party state on the road to totalitarianism. The American people saw this effort to continue the “fundamental transformation” of America—as Obama identified it on the eve of the 2008 election—and rejected it.

It was a wild ride. Imagine defunding the police, or insisting that a man can become a woman, that our very existence is killing Planet Earth, that driving an electric car is proof of your goodness, or that anyone having traditional American values is a racist bigot. Just imagine.

The Progressive movement has taken various forms over the past 60 years but it was always rooted in revolution. “Revolution against what?” you might ask. To paraphrase the great Thomas Sowell, it is a revolution against everything that works and in favor of what sounds good today. Open borders, transgenderism, “renewable” energy, white supremacy—these are just a sampling of the radicalism on full display that has proven to be an abject failure among the U.S. population.

It failed because it was all based on lies. When your entire platform is centered around lies, eventually people become wise to it. We are at that moment.

To understand why the Progressive movement has failed, one only needs to look at the Kamala Harris campaign for president in 2024. At its core, the campaign had entirely too many flaws and a boatload of dishonesty for it to be pulled off.

A big flaw was the candidate herself, an empty pantsuit that brought absolutely nothing to her own campaign except inane word salads, repeating memorized narratives, and proving to be incapable of articulating a single substantive idea for running the country. Showmanship is an important aspect of a political campaign, and Harris was lousy at putting on a show.

But the real reason why voters are rejecting Harris was the avalanche of lies. An avalanche of lies that the enablers in the mainstream media were all too happy to parrot.

Democrats expected voters to sign up for a campaign that was deceitfully hollow, counting on the insanely dishonest notion that the last four years did not happen (never mind what you experienced) and that this was a “new way forward.” A new way forward to where? Unprecedented inflation not seen in 60 years? A southern border that is as porous as a sieve. An economy that has many Americans feeling left behind.

Legitimate questions on policy specifics that seem to have veered wildly from day to day were met with a dumbfounding “My values have not changed.” What is that supposed to mean?
