Head up ass is no problem for the Dazzler. 7 monkey on a moped could do a U turn in that thing. His proctologist wears a miners helmet.RaceBannon said:

The government won't lie to usHHusky said:“FEMA selects where all responders can be centrally located to ensure the most effective response possible. Due to the lack of available lodging, FEMA negotiated government rates, at the lowest possible cost, for staff temporarily staying in the available hotels. As we transition into recovery, staff will move to longer term, more affordable lodging as they fulfill our commitment to support Maui,” the agency said in a statement to NewsNation.
But you girls must have your outrage, of course. (They’re paying $345/night btw.)
Too bad Trump doesn't have a hotel on Maui
Flattering really. -
I hear Vegas has first class facilities for large meetings. I'm sure you'd defend it if they were there no doubt.HHusky said:
Inappropriateness of having FEMA staff located near one another. Gee, I wonder if they ever have meetings and planning sessions.UW_Doog_Bot said:
Ok so nothing about the inappropriateness of it. Got it.HHusky said:
The other girls were complaining about the rate. They’re not “in the know” like you, Brenda.UW_Doog_Bot said:
Neat, I actually happen to be an expert in this area. I already knew they weren't paying $3k a night. It's not about the rate dumb dumb.HHusky said:“FEMA selects where all responders can be centrally located to ensure the most effective response possible.

Many of the resorts would probably completely comp the response teams in this case. Axe me how I know.
Good attempt at a deflection though. I assume you picked the talking point up off of your favorite propaganda site.
"Why a failed emergency response is actually a good thing for the residents of Maui."
You put the evacuees in the comped luxury rooms and your ICS team stays in trailers or other makeshift accommodations as close to the response as is safe.
Fema literally has training and positions specifically responsible for optics and conflicts of interest like this. You avoid even the appearance of such things even if they are comped.
Unless you're a Dem and know the useful idiots will lap up whatever your PR department will spin for them.
Steel man your straw man.
Deflect deflect deflect.
Or did you want to respond? I won't hold my breathe diddler. -

Be interesting (NOT) to see mello's non-educational background and experience resume (napping on the government dime).UW_Doog_Bot said:
Without doxing myself I'm highly trained and have been involved in numerous mid-sized responses. I'm on-call on lists for California, and some national lists. I get to be in the leadership trailer for big responses and have been ICS command on small responses(which still even then have public liasons).MelloDawg said:

During COVID most of you were running to Costco to grab the last toilet paper. I was on calls to figure out how to triage the public infrastructure so society didn't collapse. I even got my special Nazi papers allowing me free movement no matter what the lockdowns said.
Beyond that, my friends, co-workers, and even family have been on some of the biggest responses in the last 20 years or basically since Fema got overhauled after Katrina.
I'll be doing table top drills next month and I guarantee we will be discussing lessons learned of what not to do from Maui.

And the excuse that there wasn’t enough lodging in Kaanapali in fucking August following a natural disaster 5 miles down the road is so beyond absurd I don’t know what to say.
There was an opportunity to stay at the 3 nicest resorts in all of HI and they said fuck it, let’s do it.
It’s bad no matter how you look at it. Bad optics. Bad logistics. Bad explanation.
But no one cares. Tomorrow we’ll have more trump court news to distract us from this shit. -

"Why a failed emergency response is actually a good thing for the residents of Maui."
You put the evacuees in the comped luxury rooms and your ICS team stays in trailers or other makeshift accommodations as close to the response as is safe.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
THIS
FEMA is allegedly there to work, not take a vacation.
The Government Rate is slightly reduced when traveling and a very limited number of rooms are available at hotels at that rate.
