A North Carolina mayor whose daughter’s house was flattened in last week’s historic hurricane is blaming Vice President Kamala Harris for lying about FEMA efforts to help make residents whole.
Derek Roberts, the mayor of Newland, presides over just 719 residents, according to the 2020 census, but his daughter is one of those he is fighting for in an ongoing battle with FEMA. Speaking with Fox News on Tuesday, the small-town executive claimed his kin’s request for a $750 relief payment was denied by the disaster relief agency. “My daughter, whose house got completely wiped out – she has no flood insurance – meets with a FEMA person, applies for everything, doesn’t get the $750 that Kamala says she’s supposed to get. Gets approved for $300 for personal items. What is that gonna do?” Roberts asked in outrage.
“Her entire first floor is literally wiped out,” Roberts continued as he described his adult daughter’s ordeal. “Everything hauled everything off. So where is FEMA?” The little money she was given, Roberts added, wouldn’t even have replaced “what was in her refrigerator” when Helene hit.
WATCH:
Alejandro Mayorkas, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary, has publicly stated that FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the entire storm season, an admission conservatives have pounced on as they cite exorbitant spending on the nation’s migrant crisis. In a letter to Mayorkas, Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) wrote about his stunned reaction to Mayorkas’s previous admission that FEMA “does not have enough funds to make it through the [hurricane] season.”
