You don't see that in Kansas. You don't see that in Missouri. You don't see that in Arkansas. You don't see that in Tennessee. You don't see that in North Carolina. You see that in poorly ran blue states.

That's not FEMA's role. Message loud and clear. I could do this all day. I know your staff is pulling you out. And Mr. Secretary, thank you so much. (21:15–21:26)
