As Twitchy reported earlier, there was a FEMA Disaster Preparedness Meeting in which the participants said that FEMA relief was "about disaster equity": "We should focus our efforts on LGBTQIA people," said one participant. "They struggled before the storm"
Christopher Rufo tracked down the LinkedIn profile of one of the participants, who explained that he hosted a twice-monthly webinar that discusses climate change and equity.

It's mind-boggling to think how many people in the federal bureaucracy have jobs that are essentially meaningless make-work that do nothing but compromise the core competencies of their agencies. It's probably a million or more...

Nothing but a jobs program. I can’t believe we’re here.

If someone had mentioned FEMA's "Office of Resilience" I would have thought it was to ensure communities "BOUNCE BACK" after disasters.

Instead it is an office that promotes woke ideas, the opposite of the type of resilience the country needs.
When will congress outlaw DEI…

Equity? Ridiculous. Tragedies are not skin color nor social economic selective you fools.

He certainly does.
They just make up jobs for them.

They just make up all of these jobs to get some of that sweet sweet government pay, and I can't for the life of me imagine how they fill their time besides looking for oppression.

Does FEMA really need a twice-monthly online seminar about equity?
