AMERICA — I’VE GOT BREAKING NEWS, MORE STORMS ARE HEADING OUR WAY. FLOODS, TORNADOES, HURRICANES — EVEN WILDFIRES.

AND THEY’RE ONLY GETTING WORSE. 

Are we prepared? 

Well, thanks to Trump we are drastically underprepared and everyone should know how much more at risk we are.

First, Trump has undermined our ability to predict severe weather in the first place.

Trump and DOGE fired hundreds of National Weather Service staff — including hurricane scientists and workers who repair weather forecasting equipment. They cut so many employees that the agency is desperately scrambling to hire some of them back. 

These cuts have already led to fewer weather balloon launches, which help meteorologists collect data that can alert the public to tornadoes and thunderstorms. 

Now why would they do that? Is the theory “If we can’t see it, it must not be happening?”

Second, Trump has gutted our ability to respond after disaster strikes. 

Americans rely on the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, to coordinate disaster response and to rebuild after disasters. But Trump and DOGE gutted nearly 20% of the agency’s workforce, while leaving multiple top agency jobs vacant or filled by Homeland Security officials with no disaster experience.

This has already been felt on the ground. 

When deadly floods hit Texas in 2025, FEMA's new contract review policy (meant to root out supposed “waste”) reportedly delayed rescue efforts by 72 hours and left thousands of emergency calls unanswered. More recently, Midwest search-and-rescue crews lost access to key tornado-tracking software after FEMA failed to renew a critical contract.

And check out this chart — Trump has even politicized disaster relief. 

If you live in a so-called “Blue State,” Trump is more likely to deny your state’s disaster funding request altogether. And if he does approve, it’s taken him TWICE as long to do it compared to Biden.

Finally, Trump is making it harder for us to reduce the impact of future disasters. 

Trump’s FEMA canceled billions of dollars that helped communities protect against extreme weather. Constructing levees and elevating homes and hospitals in flood zones. Now some funding has been restored — but only a fraction of what Trump snatched away.

Folks, our government is supposed to be there for us. Especially when we’re at our most vulnerable. 

But Trump has unleashed a perfect storm that’s heading your way.  

Please, share this video — and urge your members of Congress to restore disaster funding and our government agencies before it’s too late.
