I also am not quite sure how they will Affirm Orthodox Belief On Global Warming. Sounds like that is asking for a First Amendment challenge.

The plans could say “If the climate should change” and then use criteria which we jolly well know never will be met short of some divine action.

Support the warming propaganda, or face the consequences. It’s the Nazi way, or die.

“A hurricane comes and does billions in damage. Will they actually deny that money when there are people suffering? How will THOSE optics look?”

Simple. Blame GW Bush!

A suggestion: Create a monstrous estimate of costs. “Climate change” will cause the entire state of Florida to be underwater.
We need $400,000,000,000,000.00 to mitigate the flood. (that's 400 Trillion bucks). “We truly believe/hs that it will happen soon so send that money as quickly as you can.”

The /”hs” is Heavy Sarcasm!
Then FEMA will have to stop building their “camps” that have been built in many states...see “US Border Protection” site just West of Harper's Ferry West Virginia. What border are “they” protecting? Maryland and Virginia a threat to WV?

Probably look like Staten Island. But no one will look if Barry doesn’t want them to.

There was a flood in my community a few years back. Everybody who talked to FEMA is still waiting to rebuild. Everybody who told FEMA to get the Hell off their lawn is now back to normal. I cannot understand why people would put their lives on hold for three years just because they might (or might not) get some FREE MONEY from the government.

I suspect the same is true at the state government level. States that are denied FEMA funding should count their blessings and move on.

This will have to be litigated in Court and likely go to SCOTUS.

The Feds are giving states a no win scenario. To get disaster funds they must waste funds mitigating global warming which has stopped for 18 years. So to get the money they must waste the money. No net gain. States might as well not spend the energy or CO2 mitigating something for nothing.

Religious test.

AGW is a religion, make no mistake. If this is allowed to stand, you will see hate crimes leveled against people who say they think they had more snow this year than last.

Works great, till the tanks roll in.

Or the state treasurer gets arrested by the Secret Service.

Legally, the states can’t seize federal tax revenue anymore than you can not pay income taxes.

When Pres. Cruz takes office, he should eliminate FEMA immediately. Every state should get an annual bloc grant to take care of emergencies. If no emergency occurs, the funds should be put in the state’s Disaster Fund, for a “rainy day,” and could not spent on anything else. That would take the corrupt Federal government out of the business of punishing states for not adopting the religious beliefs of FEMA directors.
