Apparently the money being sent is nowhere remotely close to being adequate . People are outraged that the majority of the money has gone to Ukraine and to help the migrant communities .

FEMA announced yesterday that there is no money left to respond to hurricane disasters for the remainder of hurricane season. Not sure if this is before / after they offered $750 to those most in need.

You forgot to add the part where local authorities threatened to jail the independent helicopter operators attempting to help . Couldn't believe it , what a disgrace . The mainstream media won't report on that but the helicopter operators are posting all over YouTube about it .

I’ve seen that, too. Disgrace is not the word I would use.

Donations are getting confiscated. Supplies have to be diverted so to get thru to the people in need. The suffering is intentional. Plenty on this is being posted elsewhere.

I'm seeing this kind of shit being debunked everywhere. There are a lot of scams and false rumors being posted right now. I don't trust anything I read anymore unless it comes from an official source.

And now there's this. My whole family lives in Tampa. Tampa's worst nightmare is a storm coming directly into the bay. I'm worried...

Of course it could go north or south of the bay, but none of these paths are good...
