Trump news at a glance: president faces intensifying criticism over Qatar plane gift

excerpt:

"Leading Democratic Chris Murphy on Sunday called it the “definition of corruption”, while even some of Trump’s close allies have been enraged, with some saying it was the opposite of Trump’s promise to drain the swamp and was “a stain on the administration”.

Trump lashed out at the critics on Saturday, claiming the gift was to the US and not for him personally. Murphy later told NBC that was not true."

 

Trump's administration is already stained heavily.

Like Fred Sanford told Aunt Esther, "Your family was stained when I met y'all. Even Ajax couldn't take out a stain like that."

‘FEMA Has Not Been on the Ground’: St. Louis Mayor Pleads For Federal Aid in Wake of Devastating Tornado

excerpt:

“FEMA has not been on the ground,” Spencer responded. “We do not have confirmed assistance from FEMA at this point. I do want to say, however, every other level of government has been on the ground with us helping in every capacity possible. But when you have a disaster of this scale — eight miles of just pure destruction — this tornado didn’t just touch down and leave. This tornado ripped through our community for a full eight miles in the city of St. Louis, and this is an area that has needed help that, we need investment. Our North St. Louis has been neglected for a long time and we need the help of our partners here.

 

That should include bad actors like Musk and Trump who are gutting federal agencies like FEMA.
