Puerto Rican Officials Withholding FEMA Aid to Bash President Trump
Black & Blonde Media ^ | 10/18/17 | Black & Blonde Media

Posted on 10/18/2017 10:16:37 AM PDT by impetrio1

Be very skeptical of the screeching media, demanding to know why aspects of FEMA recovery efforts aren't happening as fast as they determine it should be. Lying to the American people is something expected. Intentionally causing misery for political gain is also expected of Democrats, no matter how benign-to-lethal that misery will be.

Don’t underestimate the corruption angle. The place is a den of it.

So ask the media for volunteers to embed with fema for frontline reporting in the daily struggle with corruption and ineptitude

Yup. Sit on your ass and do nothing, or leave town (like Nagin did).

Then, when everything falls apart, blame the Republican President, and the MSM gives you the hero treatment.

Of course, Bush helped out by not fighting back, and going down to NO on AF1 to give Nagin a big hug and say nice things about him.

Which had no effect at all other than to embolden Nagin and Governor Kathleen Blanco.

Where is Ray Nagin?

In 2014, Nagin was convicted on twenty of twenty-one charges of wire fraud, bribery, and money laundering related to bribes from city contractors before and after Katrina and was sentenced to ten years in federal prison. He is presently incarcerated. Earliest release date will be 2023.

Right after Katrina hit he moved his family to Dallas and he enrolled his kids in school here. We got so many demoncraps who moved here because of Katrina that it knocked the balance of our judgeships and many Republicans were booted out of office.

Thanks for the info.

I see convicted felon former US Representative William “Cold Cash” Jefferson D-LA was just released several days ago.

“Louisiana’s first black congressman since the end of Reconstruction.”

A leftist posting here to make us look dumb?

"we" = We

"ate" = are

"anf" = an

Puerto Rico is NOT a "foreign country", it is a US territory.

I suspect those officials are withholding FEMA aid until they can get a better price for it. Bashing Trump is a side benefit and serves to diffuse attention that otherwise might be focused on the corruption.

Well he is kind of newbie and maybe hasn’t learned about things like spelling and grammar and proofreading yet.

like spelling and grammar and proofreading yet.

Or more importantly, geography.

I wasn't going to comment, but the "foreign country" part pushed me over the edge.

It is a fact that Blanco recieved numerous, NUMEROUS calls from Harry Reid and his office telling her to fight or ignore anything from GWB’s gov. so the Dems could blame him. That is why she was bawling like a baby when Bush called and begged her “ WHAT DO YOU NEED??” She bawled ‘Everything. Everything.’ Kind of hard to coordinate things with that response. She was caught between the emergency she had and the Democrat party contributions.

Give the island to China. No military allowed. Pay off the debt. Any Puerto Rican in a NY jail gets deported there. Chinese justice.

"Apposite" does have a meaning and appose may be a legitimate derivation but I don't think our poster knows that.
