Provocative
- A FEMA employee reported instructions to ignore homes of Trump supporters during hurricane recovery efforts.

A whistleblower from the Federal Emergency Management Agency reported that an official instructed disaster relief workers to avoid homes displaying pro-Trump signs in Lake Placid, Florida, following Hurricane Milton. This guidance was communicated verbally and through group messages, resulting in at least 20 homes not receiving FEMA assistance. The allegations were corroborated by multiple federal employees, raising concerns of political discrimination. The whistleblower emphasized that such behavior undermines the agency's integrity and could threaten democracy.
