Biden Proposes Disaster Aid to Congress
As hurricanes have pummeled the American Southeast this week, many have been left to pick up the pieces with too few resources. Somehow FEMA is running low on resources for those who need them the most. Perhaps the issue is not that they don't have the money, but rather that they don't have the right priorities. On today's show, we will be covering some shocking revelations about how the woke far-left agenda has even infiltrated our disaster relief programs.

Donald Trump keeps pushing the vile claim that federal officials are withholding disaster aid from GOP areas devastated by Hurricane Helene. This has now backfired, focusing media attention on Trump's own hyper-politicization of disaster relief as president. To wit: Two former Trump officials told Politico that Trump initially refused to approve disaster aid for California after wildfires in 2018 due to the state's Democratic lean. We talked to one of those officials—Olivia Troye, a senior homeland security official in the Trump administration and now a leading critic of the former president—about Trump's disastrous tenure, and what she told is is not pretty.

On today's episode of News You Need to Know, Shawn Bolz and the team bring you in-depth analysis of the latest breaking stories. We start with President Biden's swift response to the North Carolina disaster, where a major declaration was made almost immediately to ensure federal aid could supplement state and local recovery efforts. With FEMA now mobilized, emergency assistance for housing, loans, and grants for repairs is on the way. Next, we cover the alarming situation in Rockdale County, where a BioLab facility fire has led to a nightly shelter-in-place order. With concerns over hazardous smoke and chemicals, residents are advised to stay indoors while the EPA monitors the air and water for dangerous substances like chlorine and hydrochloric acid. We'll break down what this means for public safety and how the community is reacting. In a political twist, we dive into how Newsweek is attempting to shame Christians for their support of Donald Trump by highlighting messages from niche evangelical groups. Is this an attempt to sway future elections or a broader cultural shift? Shawn and the team explore the implications. Also on the agenda: Kamala Harris finally makes a border visit, nearly four years into her term. We'll discuss why this trip is getting so much attention, especially as her tenure in office nears its end. Alongside this, the looming port union strikes could potentially shut down key trade routes, placing even more pressure on the Biden/Harris administration. And finally, we tackle the rise of extreme cultural narratives, like the introduction of “Demon Pronouns” in certain circles, which are trying to normalize radical language and ideology. We explore what this means for the broader societal conversation and how Christians are navigating these issues.

American aid to global victims of natural disasters might seem like a relatively new phenomenon, perhaps linked to the Marshall Plan and other major programs in the past several decades. But US efforts to assist those suffering from earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, major flooding, and other such catastrophes actually goes back to the James Madison administration, followed by a burst of intense activity and the birth of the modern US approach at the very start of the 1900s.David Priess chatted with Julia Irwin, history professor at Louisiana State University and author of the book Catastrophic Diplomacy, about the academic study of disaster assistance, why some natural disasters stick in collective memory more than others, how US aid for catastrophes started in 1812 in Venezuela, why US disaster aid expanded in the late 1800s, case studies from Martinique (1902) and Jamaica (1907) to Italy (1908) and Japan (1923), the effects of the two world wars on US disaster aid, the genesis of USAID and other governmental entities, the modern role of former presidents in raising money for disaster relief, the concept of disaster risk reduction, what contemporary US catastrophic assistance efforts have learned from the past, and the disaster movie genre.Among the works mentioned in this episode:The book Catastrophic Diplomacy by Julia IrwinThe book Making the World Safe: The American Red Cross and a Nation's Humanitarian Awakening by Julia IrwinThe book The Great Kantō Earthquake and the Chimera of National Reconstruction in Japan by J.
