That was money that could have and should have been set aside to aid their own FL citizens facing disaster.

a devastating hurricane. Now I will not spend one penny, send one penny to that state as long as fascists are in control there. Voting or not voting has consequences. Like russia, it is up to the people to protest such monsters in control, cause chaos, not seeing much of that by Floridians.

You allow that shit then you own it. And just like Christian’s, you allow that shit like Jesus is trump, you own it. I have nothing to do with religion until they call that BS out and condemn it. Same for Floridians. They have infested our Mtns with summer play houses. $$$$$$$ very expensive ones. And the majority fly trump flags and some have DeSatan flags. Fuck helping them. Take some of that second home cash to fix storm damage. And stop spending millions to kidnap refugees to fly around the country and expect blue states to send money. Collect a damn state tax to fix your damn state when climate change blows it away or burns it to the ground. Especially if you always talk shit about the states that pay for the damage.

DeSantis sent all those people to Martha's Vineyard to "protect" taxpayers and share the expense. In that case I think Florida's should be prepared to pay for hurricane recovery themselves. I mean if their state is so great they shouldn't have a problem. Everyone is moving there, right?
