OT Puerto Rico, 22 days later...

[SlyPokerDog]

Yes, one of the strongest hurricanes ever recorded reaching land is just like hunting.

Except all of your hunting supplies along with your house blew away but besides from that, exactly the same.

Many of these posts would be unnecessary if you snowflakes would simply peruse other news sources once in awhile.

The epitomy of voluntary submission to brain-washing.

Federal Attorney confirms search for mayors appropriate FEMA aid
In recent days, Governor Ricardo Rosselló has asked the federal prosecutor to investigate why the food is not reaching the municipalities

The federal prosecutor Rosa Emilia Rodriguez said today that she is investigating officials in the government, including mayors, who have reportedly been aided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) affected by Hurricane Maria.

In an interview on the Wapa Radio news station and flanked by the Attorney General's Office, Wanda Vázquez, Rodríguez said she has denounced two bureaucrats who have not delivered the supplies to the people in need.


"This morning we received information from a town on the Island where a person close to the municipal administration was asking one of our federal agents that the supplies that were there could not be touched because they were for his mayor," said Rodríguez, who then indicated that the case is already being investigated.

He added that he also received confidences from another islander whose official was also keeping supplies for "constituents who had voted for that person."

"This is not the time to do politics ... this is the time to help and to be kind to others. This is a tragedy and nobody should take advantage of the aid, "said Rodriguez, adding that if they manage to prove the indications, the accusations will arrive" no matter which party, or whoever. "

To the question of which towns of the island correspond the officials, Rodriguez said that "the first is from the (area) north and the other is from the center; and another is the metropolitan area. I can not mention people because I affected the investigation, "he replied.

In recent days, Governor Ricardo Rosselló has asked the federal prosecutor to investigate why the food is not reaching the municipalities.

The governor's request comes as he becomes aware of multiple complaints that supplies delivered by FEMA to some mayors are not reaching citizenship.

"I want everyone who is listening to us to know that that will be investigated in a rigorous way and that we will not give any opportunity," he told Wapa Radio, the local chief of justice.

He reiterated that the aid that has been taken to "mayors, mayors and officials is for citizenship and if someone is committing a crime, receiving supplies and using them for their known people that is a crime and will investigate" .

Not seen on CNN. However, CNN is touting their own poll that shows Trump's approval rating for handling the hurricane aftermaths is down 20% since September. It is more an indication of how news "reporters" can find an unincorporated town of 250 people that was decimated by the storm and is difficult to even get to, and then report the administration is failing to help Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico Delegate: Everything That We've Asked For, Trump Has Provided

In an interview with USA Today, Puerto Rico’s delegate in the House of Representatives, Jenniffer Gonzalez-Colon, discussed the aftermath of Hurricane Maria on the island and the way President Trump has handled the response.

"I will tell you that everything that the president said that he was going to send to the island, it's getting there. The resources are there. The help is there," Colon said.

"There are things that I never do, but, you know, the president is always out of the script," Colon remarked. "And I think that's the main difference. People are used to having politicians that are politically correct, that follow the script, and he's not like that. I mean, what you see is what you get and that's the way he is."

"He instructed all his cabinet members to treat Puerto Rico as a state, in terms of this hurricane," she said. "I mean, that kind of instruction is important to have access to all those programs."
