Why did MAYORKAS say that FEMA did not have anymore funding to help the victims of the hurricanes???

[DianeDriver]

Why don't they call a lie a lie instead of misinformation or disinformation ?

[PetTalkShow]

Too many citizens say its true to be false. Even when they have evidence of a poor execution they deny deny deny. Shame

[loriniedermier]

I’ve spoken with people in the affected area and they are being denied the $750. Over and over.

[jpvintage]

When our first amendment right is labeled “dangerous” as a result of their lies being exposed.. then you know you’ve hit a nerve.

[littlejohnkww]

Who are we to believe. Boots on the ground or suits?

[staceyldisch]

Yes KJP, you need to stop with the falsehoods! 🤨

[johnbarrett]

Don’t blame him I wouldn’t talk to either of them.

[Nothingtocryabout]

Shouldn’t the President be reaching out about that…

[lilypop]

Oh! Are you talking about the job you did in WNC? This is not “disinformation.” I am living through it. You are lying.

[wisdomknowledgelover]

We know how little she cares about us! Arresting volunteers?

[LadyCriket]

NORTH CAROLUNA NEEDS MORE THAN $750.00, it should be a blank check. We pay taxes all our lives. It's our MONEY!!!!~

[rossiikhan]

DeSantis said he never received a call from her. I believe him

[Pencil-op]

What to talk about? They have been ignoring him for awhile and letting him deal with the hurricanes and the port strike by himself. Now they acted like they cared.

[m.schetr]

And not one media network is asking where is Joe?

[michaelmallory]

This lady really is going to hell for spreading these lies constantly!!! Absolutely disgusting human being!!

[notsure]

The people have spoke that's not disinformation

[mandi]

They are trying to unalive us in real time. Whats to discuss

[wingatesp]

Ignore her.
She's been ignoring us for 3 years.

[coincollector]

They are campaigning, not offering support.
