The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) held a Rapid Readout about the status of reform efforts for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The Trump Administration and Congress are considering changes to pre-disaster preparedness, disaster response, and post-disaster recovery. This readout provided background on why FEMA reforms are on the table, unpack how communities could be affected, and outline the most prominent proposal, the bipartisan Fixing Emergency Management for Americans Act of 2025 (H.R.4669). It also described what has happened to date with the FEMA Review Council, established by Executive Order 14180 in January 2025.
The salient point of this podcast episode revolves around the significant impact of Hurricane Melissa, which has made landfall in eastern Cuba as a Category 3 storm and is progressing northeastward towards the Bahamas. We meticulously delineate the potential hazards arising from this weather event, notably the elevated risk of rip currents and rough surf along the southeastern coast of the United States, particularly Florida. Additionally, the episode elaborates on various weather alerts, including a marginal flash flood risk across the Southern and Central Appalachians, as well as a potential severe weather risk in eastern North Carolina and Southeast Virginia. We also address the imminent arrival of a moderate atmospheric river in the Pacific Northwest, which is expected to bring substantial rainfall. Furthermore, we discuss FEMA's recent allocation of over $1 billion in federal funding to enhance safety measures in the host cities for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup.Hurricane Melissa has emerged as a formidable force, having made landfall in eastern Cuba as a Category 3 hurricane, with its trajectory now directing it towards the Bahamas. Although the United States currently has no active watches, the ramifications of Hurricane Melissa are being felt along the southeastern coast, particularly in Florida, where the risk of rip currents and rough surf is markedly elevated. The National Weather Service has issued warnings to coastal residents and beachgoers to exercise caution due to these dangerous conditions, emphasizing the importance of heeding safety advisories during such severe weather events.In addition to the impact of Hurricane Melissa, the Weather Prediction Center has highlighted a marginal flash flood risk across the Southern and Central Appalachians, extending into the Ohio and Tennessee valleys. This is attributed to the influx of rain that is expected to saturate these regions today. Concurrently, the Storm Prediction Center has indicated a marginal severe weather risk for eastern North Carolina and Southeast Virginia, suggesting the potential for isolated severe thunderstorms later in the evening. The confluence of these weather patterns necessitates vigilant monitoring and preparedness among local residents.Furthermore, looking towards the Pacific Northwest, a moderate atmospheric river is anticipated to commence its influence on Friday and Saturday, with the Weather Prediction Center flagging a marginal flood risk for Western Washington. This is in alignment with forecasts from the Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes, which anticipates several days of precipitation associated with this atmospheric river event. As federal funding has also been allocated to support the infrastructure for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, the coordination between emergency management partners and local authorities has never been more crucial. Maintaining situational awareness and readiness is imperative as we navigate through this dynamic weather landscape.Takeaways:* Hurricane Melissa made landfall in Cuba and poses risks for Florida's coast today, especially due to rip currents.* A marginal flash flood risk has been issued for the Southern and Central Appalachians today, necessitating caution for residents in these regions.* FEMA has announced over $1 billion in federal funding aimed at securing host cities for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.* California is facing red flag warnings due to Santa Ana winds and low humidity, prompting pre-deployment of firefighting resources.* The Pacific Northwest will experience a moderate atmospheric river, leading to potential flooding in Western Washington later this week.* Several states, including Connecticut and New Jersey, are under marginal flood risks due to expected heavy rainfall in the upcoming days.Source[NHC | https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCPAT3+html/290851.html][NWS Key West | https://www.weather.gov/key/][NWS Jacksonville | https://www.weather.gov/jax/][WPC Day 1 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=1&opt=curr][SPC Day 1 | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=txt&glossary=1&issuedby=DY1&product=SWO&site=JKL&version=1][WPC Day 3 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/index.shtml][CW3E AR Outlook (Oct 28) | https://cw3e.ucsd.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/28Oct2025_Outlook/28Oct2025_Outlook.pdf][FEMA | https://www.fema.gov/print/txt/node/705701][NWS Los Angeles | https://www.weather.gov/lox/][NWS San Diego | https://www.weather.gov/sgx/][Cal OES | https://news.caloes.ca.gov/governor-newsom-predeploys-firefighting-resources-southern-california-ahead-of-dangerous-fire-weather/][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][NWS Key West | https://www.weather.gov/key/][NWS Jacksonville | https://www.weather.gov/jax/][NHC | https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCPAT3+html/290851.html][WPC Day 1 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=1&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/index.shtml][NWS Wilmington | https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=34.2026&lon=-77.8815][NWS Topsail Beach hazards | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?firewxzone=NCZ106&lat=34.3696&local_place1=Topsail+Beach+NC&lon=-77.6288&product1=Beach+Hazards+Statement&warncounty=NCC141&warnzone=NCZ106][SPC Day 1 | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=txt&glossary=1&issuedby=DY1&product=SWO&site=JKL&version=1][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][WPC Day 2 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=2&opt=curr][NWS Charleston | https://www.weather.gov/chs/][WPC Day 1 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=1&opt=curr][SPC Day 1 | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=txt&glossary=1&issuedby=DY1&product=SWO&site=JKL&version=1][NWS Wakefield Briefing | https://www.weather.gov/akq/brief][WPC Day 3 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/index.shtml][NWS Seattle AFD | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=ci&glossary=1&issuedby=sew&product=afd&site=nws&version=1][WPC Day 1 ERO | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=1&opt=curr] This is a public episode.

This week we've had bombshell evidence produced by the Department of Homeland Security that shows that FEMA literally made life and death decisions based on political affiliations and gun ownership for nearly four years under the Biden administration. What we learned is that victims of at least 491 emergencies that FEMA responded to, including 233 declared disasters between August of 2021 and January of 2025 were potentially denied assistance due to political affiliation or gun ownership. We learned that in Florida, this included periods covering the impacts of Hurricanes Salley, Ian, Nicole, Idalia, Debby, Helene, and Milton (in addition to a rash of tornadoes in April of 2023 – that brought about a major disaster declaration). But that apparently isn't of concern to your GSS news media. That, that story isn't the biggest story locally, statewide and for that matter nationally this week – tells you all you need to know about the credibility of your news media at large. But hey, a poo-for-brains player for the Miami Heat is found to have been involved in a sports betting ring...now that's a story they care about.

In this episode of the Crisis Lab Podcast, host Kyle King takes a hard look at the internal fractures forming within the emergency management community. Kyle reflects on how recent disasters and public criticism have brought long-standing issues to the surface. This episode challenges the profession to face uncomfortable truths about authority, messaging, and its evolving role in the face of growing demands. With examples drawn from major events like Hurricanes Helene and Milton, and reactions from both public officials and emergency professionals, Kyle unpacks how misinformation, internal conflict, and a crisis of credibility are reshaping what it means to serve communities during emergencies. He explores how the field's reliance on heroic language has masked a quiet shift toward managing scarcity rather than delivering aid and why the time for honest self-examination is now. Tune in to hear why emergency management stands at a crossroads and what it must do to rebuild public trust and professional unity in an age of constant crisis.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 21, 2025. 0:30 We unpack the outrage over President Trump’s renovation of the White House ballroom — a story the left has spun into claims that he’s “bulldozing history.” Have they forgotten that every president has updated the White House—from Teddy Roosevelt’s West Wing to Nixon’s press room and Obama’s basketball court? 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. A new report says not only did FEMA discriminate against Republicans and Trump supporters during the 2024 election, but has been discriminating against Republicans struck by disasters since at least 2021. The House Judicial committee referred former CIA director John Brennan to the Department of Justice for a criminal indictment, accusing Brennan of lying to Congress during his testimony on May 11, 2023 about the Russian Collusion Hoax. The US and Australia signed a rare earth mining agreement worth $8.5 billion in mining projects, including building a gallium refinery in western Australia. 12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 We're seeing record deportation numbers under President Trump. While roughly half a million illegal immigrants were forcibly removed, 1.6 million chose to self-deport — proof of Trump’s effective and efficient approach to immigration enforcement. 17:00 And we ask the American Mamas—Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson— if they are going to read Karine Jean-Pierre's new book. The Mamas unpack Jean-Pierre’s media tour and the backlash that followed her “broken White House” claim. But there is a contradiction — Jean-Pierre served under Biden, yet insists the “broken” White House refers to Trump’s term. The Mamas also highlight her repeated references to race and sexuality in interviews, suggesting that identity, not merit, defined her tenure as press secretary. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We take a look at Colombian President Gustavo Petro's demand for Donald Trump’s removal from office. Colombia has long benefited from billions in U.S. aid, trade, and military support, only to now criticize the very policies protecting America’s borders and curbing the drug trade. 26:00 We Dig Deep into the media’s backlash to the new Pentagon press rules issued by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth — and we aren't buying the outrage. The updates, effective October 15th, include tighter restrictions on journalist movement inside the Pentagon, new escort requirements, U.S.-citizen-only press badges, and enforcement of long-standing rules against unauthorized information release. While major outlets walked out in protest — calling the policy “dictatorial” — these are common-sense security measures, no different from those in schools or corporate buildings. So what is the media really so upset about? 32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 There is a growing culture of quitting in America. Reporters are walking out of the Pentagon over new press rules and celebrities are vowing to leave the U.S. whenever elections don’t go their way. But perseverance — not retreat — is fundamental to the American spirit, and walking away in protest reflects the victim mindset on the left. 36:30 We just had another round of the "No Kings" protests, but we don't have anyone who's trying to become king in American. And that's a Bright Spot. The "No Kings" movement misses a fundamental truth: America was deliberately built to reject kingship altogether. The Founding Fathers saw monarchy as the root of tyranny and believed power should rest with ordinary citizens, not elites or hereditary rulers. 40:30 Socialist Zohran Mamdani is leading candidate in New York City's mayoral race. Curtis Sliwa faces mounting pressure to drop out, but he is saying "Whoa!" 42:30 And we finish off with construction on the Pantheon in Greece.

The Government Accountability Institute digs into the deep pockets of dark money behind Riot, Inc., the network of "grassroots" organizations backing No Kings, which wasn't spontaneous. It was SUBSIDIZED. Matt Taibbi exposes the true Trump hatred and corruption at FEMA and Karine Jean Pierre gets grilled by democrats over Joe Biden's cognitive breakdown. How could she not know?
Current and former Federal Emergency Management Agency, employees rallied in front of FEMA headquarters on Friday.

On today's show we are unpacking the critical details every sophisticated investor, developer, needs to understand about the different types of flood plain designations and how wetland mitigation can make or break your deal.First, why do people even want to develop in flood plains? For one, the land doesn't usually present itself as a flood plain. It's completely dry most of the time. But, like every opportunity, there are layers of risk and regulation you need to run through.The U.S. government, via FEMA, essentially maps out risk using what's called Flood Insurance Rate Maps, or FIRMs. Picture these as overlays on your site plan that tell you how often the water is likely to rise and cause problems.100-Year Floodplain (SFHA - Special Flood Hazard Area)500-Year FloodplainFloodplain X - minimal riskBut what is your flood map is out of date? 75% of existing FEMA maps are out of date. As you know, the US government is in a budgetary shutdown, with no signs of a quick resolution. Even if you are not relying on government funding for a loan, if your property is in a flood plain, your lender will require paperwork from FEMA before they can close the loan. So the government shutdown means your loan cannot close until the government re-opens FEMA gets caught up on their backlog of requests.------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
In this episode, Todd DeVoe and Dan Scott explore the evolving balance of power between federal, state, and local governments in emergency management. Drawing from Todd's doctoral research and professional experience, they unpack how “picket fence federalism” may actually find its most authentic expression in disaster management. From FEMA's shifting role to the tension between autonomy and centralization, this conversation dives deep into what federalism means for practitioners on the ground… and what happens when the fence starts to shake.Show NotesFederalism has always been a delicate balance, a system designed to distribute power, but often pulled toward centralization in crisis. Emergency management sits right in the middle of that tension. Todd and Dan discuss how major disasters begin as local emergencies but inevitably become national spectacles, the role of subsidiarity in maintaining local agency, and why FEMA's future may depend on its ability to act as a convener of partnerships rather than just a participant of last resort.Topics covered include:* How disasters expose the strengths and weaknesses of American federalism* The philosophy behind picket fence federalism and its application to EM* The evolution of FEMA from a relief bureau to a convener of capability* Ethical federalism, subsidiarity, and the importance of proximity in governance* How local innovation drives national doctrine* Lessons from the Trump-era proposals to restructure FEMA* The moral responsibility of emergency managers to protect the integrity of shared governanceKey takeaway:Emergency management may be America's best living model of federalism today — not because it is perfect, but because it is cooperative, adaptive, and rooted in trust.

Full episode notes: Episode 529
Missouri's Republican and Democratic elected officials have been underwhelmed by the federal response to the May 16 tornado in St. Louis. And at least one member of Missouri's congressional delegation, Republican U.S. Rep. Sam Graves, said the problems he sees this year aren't new – and should prompt lawmakers to overhaul the disaster response agency. The Tarkio Republican talks about his bipartisan legislation to overhaul FEMA on the “Politically Speaking Hour on St. Louis on the Air.”

David Waldman survived to Wednesday! He can breathe again! Greg Dworkin has been adding the finishing touches on his home renovation yet still had the time to tow in a raft o' stories for us today. With government shut down, Democrats have even more time to convene focus groups to work out what their thoughts might be on a given subject. Perhaps the next poll will lend some clarity to their subsequent moral stand. “Pollingism” is trying to follow to where you guess people are heading. “Magnetism” is deciding to lead to where you believe people should go. Magnetism is at the center of Zohran Mamdanism. Young Gop leaders obviously do not focus group their statements and only speak from the heart. Donald K. Trump kills 6 more people and dares anyone to try to stop him. “You and whose army?” takes on a new meaning as Trump assembles his own troops. Los Angeles County declares a state of emergency over immigration raids, so FEMA better load up. Meanwhile, unfortunately, the National Guard has something constructive to do after Typhoon Halong devastated western Alaska communities. The Trump Supreme Court draws the line at Alex Jones.
En este PPP 403, arrancamos con el tema que tiene al país hablando: ¿hay politiquería en la investigación del asesinato de Gabriela Nicole? Analizamos las expresiones de las figuras involucradas, los movimientos en Justicia y cómo se mezcla la política con el dolor de una familia. También discutimos la reasignación de fondos federales para la reconstrucción energética, otro capítulo más en la novela de la AEE, FEMA, Truump, LUMA y Genera, y lo que esto significa para los proyectos de energía solar y microredes en la isla. Y cerramos con el chisme corporativo del día: otra periodista demanda por discrimen y hostigamiento, sumando otro capítulo al “excelente ambiente laboral” en los medios del país. Ah, y claro… en el Chit Chat, el Padre Orlando Lugo se fue a los golpes (verbales) con Eliezer Molina. Si fueras integrante de nuestro Patreon, hubieras escuchado este episodio ayer.

Negotiations in Egypt between Hamas and Israel are ongoing. Foreign Policy reports that despite hope that a deal is imminent, a lot of the details remain unresolved. The government shutdown and policy changes at FEMA have introduced chaos into the nation’s disaster-preparedness system. The Wall Street Journal’s Scott Patterson discusses how funding and staffing shake-ups are impacting disaster-prone communities. AI will soon be implemented into a new prior-authorization pilot for Medicare. Lauren Sausser, reporter for KFF Health News, explains how the program will work and why some doctors and lawmakers are concerned over potential delay-and-deny tactics. Plus, the CDC moves ahead with new rules on COVID vaccines, how hundreds of hikers became trapped on Mount Everest, and why researchers say proper falling techniques can help you live a longer life. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Impending Shutdown: The country is only “hours away” from a government shutdown, Partisan Blame: The responsibility for the shutdown is Democrats, particularly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Republican Positioning: Republicans, including Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, JD Vance, Tom Cotton, and John Thune, are portrayed as wanting a “clean funding extension” (a short-term budget measure) to keep the government open. Democratic Hypocrisy: The commentary highlights past Democratic statements opposing shutdowns, contrasting them with current positions to claim inconsistency. Accusations of Radicalism: Democrats are described as pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that allegedly includes: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants Funding for gender-affirming surgeries Open borders and Medicaid fraud Other “radical left” priorities Political Motivation: A recurring argument is that Schumer is resisting compromise to protect himself from a potential primary challenge by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Consequences of Shutdown The episode also notes practical impacts of a shutdown, such as: Federal employees furloughed or unpaid Disruptions for TSA officers, military families, firefighters, veterans, and prison guards Delays in Social Security, SNAP, and WIC benefits Risks to disaster relief and FEMA funding Potential harm to the economy, including billions in costs and possible credit rating downgrades Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
