Discussion: White House Seeking $29B Disaster Aid Package For Hurricane Relief Efforts

“Conservatives are likely to liken it to a taxpayer bailout, but the program is enormously important to homeowners in hurricane-ravaged Texas and Florida, as well as other coastal states.”

Nonsense. You have to have insurance in order to get a mortgage. But an insurance company won’t touch a home in these areas if they aren’t backed by this federal insurance program. If Congress balks at this, insurance companies will refuse policies, mortgages won’t be underwritten and a new collapse in the housing markets happens.

And this scenario WILL play out eventually. Maybe not now, but as storms keep getting stronger and more frequent, the chain I mentioned above will break. Insurance companies in FL get skittish after every major storm.

North Korea has kind of dropped on the radar especially at TPM, that seems to be kind of narrow focused I assume just due to small staff. But this is interesting about NK and something I kind of wondered about. That is if all this focus on rockets and WMD took away from things that the general population actually needs day in day out to live, at all, if not in the modern world. This dark satellite pic is astounding, but was what I was thinking might be the reality of life there…

Trump: $29Billion will be fully covered by the Trillions in tax cuts that we are going to get.

Makes you wonder how much the Trump Presidency Relief Fund will end up costing us?

More than $29 Billion…

So incredibly inept…

Speaking of inept, the NRA spokesperson. She starts off with the old Definition of insanity is doing the same thin expecting different results and saying that’s what Ds do. WTF, yes dems ask to change gun laws to try and stop gun violence. NRA and Rs on the other hand do nothing and act surprised when it happens again. Yes Ds are insane to think Rs will change, but Rs are insane to watch massacres happen and do nothing.

And jesus that sick pretty smile she has while she’s spouting off these memorized fucking talking points…
