Federal funding cut for flood mitigation projects in Kentucky
#1
https://www.wymt.com/2025/04/23/federal-...-kentucky/

The Trump administration has ended a program that works to help Americans in the face of disasters.  

The Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program has helped communities across the U.S. prepare for a number of natural disasters, including flooding.
The funding will directly affect places like Franklin, Powell and Floyd counties.  Powell County was in the beginning steps of building a canal on the Red River. This would divert water away from Clay City, which is an area that has already flooded twice just this year.

“It’s kind of discouraging because we’ve been working on this canal project with the previous administration for about 4 years, and this project is very important to the people of Clay City and Powell County due to the fact that every year we have flooding,” said Eddie Barnes, Powell County Judge Executive.

Trump received 76% of the vote in Powell County.

"Working on it for 4 years with prior administration" and still halfway through the process of figuring out where the canal would go? Sounds about right. At a cost of $400k to STUDY it more? LOL. Maybe if Biden didn't divert $2 BILLION to Stacey Abrams and $BILLIONS more to people just like her there would be $400,000 for an 8-year study on where a canal might go in Clay City. Articles by dumb people for dumb people are the only weapon Dems have.

FEMA was politicized and broken by Dems, and was broke as well. Corruption and incompetence. Trump administration is fixing it and getting it back to its core mission: DISASTER RELIEF.

Their minds have been turned to mush and they aren't able to even process that. "Time for the rich to pay their fair share." lol
No Dem can get elected without endless free money and promising to "help" people, which they never do.

Dems can never win without lawfare and conning dumb people.

LOL! With that response it's even more obvious why you are strictly a cut and paste guy. Of course the $36 TRILLION went straight over your head as expected. My empathy is for my children and grandchildren growing up living in a country with $50+ TRILLION of debt and brain dead fools like you screaming for more. Mind-numbingly idiotic.

Where was your empathy when FEMA was doing nothing for the people of North Carolina and South Carolina because they’d spent all their allotted money on housing for illegal immigrants, I never seen you post, not one thing about it, or about FEMA employees ignoring people homes with Trump signs in their yard….. Right is right wrong is wrong you seem to ignore it when it comes from the left but expect the rest of us to jump on board with all your cut and paste left wing propaganda……

Our two far leftists speak with one mind. I wonder if quantum entanglement is at work? Reminds me of The Patty Duke Show.
