Trump\u2019s allies paint FEMA as bloated, corrupt and captured by Biden-era priorities, pointing to tens of millions allegedly diverted to luxury hotels for illegal immigrants instead of storm victims. To them, Hamilton was defending a failed status quo.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">\n<div id=\"anchorslot\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\"><\/div>\n<p>But stripping FEMA\u2019s power or eliminating it altogether would leave fractured state agencies scrambling alone in the face of megafires, historic floods and billion\u2011dollar hurricanes that routinely cross state lines. Hamilton\u2019s warning to Congress wasn\u2019t just bureaucratic self\u2011preservation; it was a plea about scale. Local officials may know their communities, but they can\u2019t print money, mobilize the military or coordinate multi\u2011state recovery. In firing him, the administration didn\u2019t settle the FEMA debate \u2014 it raised the stakes for the next disaster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The knife came down fast.
