Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Administrator Deanne Criswell appeared before congressional committees on Tuesday as allegations surfaced that Trump supporters' homes were intentionally skipped during disaster aid efforts following Hurricane Milton.

Criswell, addressing two House committees, denied that the alleged targeting reflected any systemic bias within FEMA.

She attributed the incident to a "rogue employee" and confirmed that the employee in question, Marn'i Washington, had been terminated.

As previously reported, FEMA official Marn'i Washington ordered her staff to avoid assisting homes with Trump flags in their yards following the aftermath of a recent hurricane in Florida.

A whistleblower came forward with text messages revealing FEMA official Marn'i Washington ordered relief workers to purposely skip over homes in Florida displaying Trump signs in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton.

According to internal messages obtained by The Daily Wire, FEMA discriminated against Trump supporters in need of help in the aftermath of the most recent hurricanes that passed through the Southeast.

"Whistleblowers say that relief workers were told it was "best practice" to pass over houses "advertising Trump."" The Daily Wire reported.

The workers would enter into the system that they made no contact with the residents, blaming the directive: "Trump sign, no contact per leadership"


Marn'i's staff at FEMA complied and skipped over at least 20 homes of suffering Americans.

Under questioning from Rep. Paulina Luna, FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell admitted the agency skipped 20 houses with Trump signs that needed hurricane relief.
