Urgent Response Needed for Hurricane Milton
The recent Hurricane Milton is causing a catastrophic national disaster, prompting concerns about the adequacy of the federal response. FEMA is reportedly doing a commendable job; however, the narrative surrounding the event is being dominated by misinformation from Trump and his allies. Urgent action is required from the Biden administration, including appointing a strong communicator, such as Mitch Landrieu, to manage the crisis and counteract the false narratives being spread. Without effective management, there is a fear that this could lead to significant political repercussions in the upcoming elections.
