The White House explained why it turned down Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine's request for disaster relief this week in the aftermath of a derailment of a train hauling toxic chemicals.
A Biden administration official told Fox News Digital that it has provided extensive assistance to surrounding communities following the chemical release earlier this month in eastern Ohio. However, the official said the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the agency that usually provides relief to communities hit by hurricanes and other natural disasters, isn't best equipped to support the state's current needs.

If Ohio was a predominately democrat state it would be overwhelmed with all kinds of aid, guaranteed.
Cause people affected are Trump voting whites? Or maybe they are just whites
There’s a SPECIAL Place in HELL......
Obama denied emergency relief to areas in Nor Cal affected by extreme flooding. Same old regime, different suit.
Is this a red county? Politicization of federal relief.
Mmmmmm

That’s an argument to expand FEMA and spend more. Never let a good crisis go to waste, especially when it negatively affects deplorables.
Tin soldiers and Biden’s drumming...
70% voted for Trump?
Majority white city & county?
Ya think?
Naaa.
Wytpepo
It is currently raining here on the East Coast. It stinks like chlorine! Even inside. Watch dopey Joe offer disaster relief for all the folks who come down with asthma or the like to NY, Massholechussetts, Connectican’t, Blowed Island...
Would it help if Ohio Gov. DeWine changed parties, and became a Democrat?
Sherrod Brown is up for re-election next year. This can’t be good for him.
That is typical BS from this Administration. FEMA’s biggest job is coordination of all the emergency relief by government agencies; so to say it is not suited for this type of ememrgency is an outright lie, but then we are used to that from Biden and his corrupt, incompetent Administration.
Here I’ll make it easier for them to explain, Ohio and that area affected voted for Trump and OVERWHELMINGLY so, so therefore the left could give a rats ass about them..after all they are poor, white Trump voters, as far as they are concerned good riddance
Biden might not run again but Buttigieg probably will. This is a majorly stupid response. Get the EPA more involved instead of FEMA. They also handle natural disasters.
Reminds me of the “Soup Nazi” on Seinfeld.
“No Soup for you.”
Tucker Carlson will have a field day with this tonight.
F*CK Biden. Go to Hell and take Sherrod Brown with you. Brown is a Cleveland Boy, has the black vote solid. No need for Whites from Eastern Ohio.
