FEMA Closer to Getting Wiped Out After Trump Emergency Review Order

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : It last received a total of $29 billion in December from Congress to fund relief efforts, but Trump has suggested that states should receive the money directly -- echoing a policy set out in the radical Project 2025 pamphlet published in the run-up to the election.
40% : But Trump has previously hinted at what he really wanted to do with the federal response agency.
28% : FEMA, which employs some 20,000 people, faced a storm of criticism from Trump on the campaign trail for what he says is its poor handling of relief funds.
21% : Should the task force recommend the break-up of FEMA, Trump will have to push his allies in Congress to press the red button and blow it up.
9% : Trump himself accused the agency of diverting money to house illegal migrants, while Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has repeatedly claimed the U.S. government is able to control the weather and called for coordinated cloud seeding to end the California wildfires.
