Great job Republican scum!

That's my rep! 🏳

They know exactly what they are doing. They are going to blame the President. They don't care about their own people.

As of this post the projected path puts this hotel, a local landmark, The Don Cesar as ground zero.

The storm surge will flow unabated (nothing but net) into Tampa Bay and slam McDill AFB head on with 15foot+ storm surge & 100mph+ sustained winds, along with everything else from funneled driving water into the shallows / beach / inlets.

On the beaches all of the curbs and sidewalks and parking lots are sand mounds, broken buildings, debris, homes of wrecked and soggy (and decaying) furniture, bedding, cars, clothes motorcycles, e-scooters & bikes from 11 god damned days ago from the last hurricane to pass by.

The highways inland going north are choked. Half my family & friends are in Jacksonville in a hotel, they live 5 miles inland from the Don CeSar hotel. Those who haven't left yet can only hope to outrun this storm and drive south like hell, along a coast 1/4 of the way, to duck underneath it. Except there's no gas / petrol left where they are, and I suspect along the 1st 1/4 of the route. Home Depot / Lowes are all out or boarding wood(s), there's no bottled / jugged water left.

There's going to be sanitation and disease issues, fresh water and food issues. Three days after the storm there will be an explosion of mosquitoes, Deer & Black flies.

It's also been raining for days. Ground saturation was hit days ago. Even in Miami, a 5 hour drive away, we are completely saturated and have some flooding.

My childhood hometown will be a bloodbath.

I myself am south of Miami, in a mangrove waterway / swamp aboard my 29' cruising sailboat hiding out in the same fucking spot I left just 7 fucking days ago storm dodging.

So any Conservative / GOP / Republican / MAGA or thier supporters and enablers can burn in fucking hell. I'm dedicating at least part of my life to never knowingly allow these people, companies, or their products into my life.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

Look, I agree its bad but let's not blow it out of proportions here. It is not the "world's strongest hurricane" it is only the 4th world's strongest hurricane. Major difference.

Either the money won't come and she'll blame Democrats for that, or the money will come despite her and she'll take credit for it.

I kinda get the accelerationist-like game plan conservatives are doing here (voting down funding and then blaming the other political side), but it's just so evil considering that alternative options would actually help people and achieve the same effect.

Vote for relief funding, maybe do some "helping" for press photos to look good, spend some billionaire money that conservatives aren't lacking for fundraisers then boast about it, calling democrats and current administration ineffective. Same result but it might save lives with the added bonus that nobody can call you out on lying.

Is it really so hard to do some good every once in a while? It really feels like conservatives are allergic to morally good deeds.

Our infrastructure is garbage. Our power was out for 2 days last time and Helene barely grazed us. Like one band hit us a bit. This one is heading straight at us so I expect to lose power for a few days at least. DeSantis is a fucking dumb piece of shit. But hey, he refused to talk to Harris to try to score a few political points and the braindead boomers will be going insane with joy.

If it passed in spite of her dissent, she’ll take credit for it with her constituents. They always do.

The conservative politicians will do everything they can to make sure the locals suffer as hard as possible so they can use the horrifying footage and stories for a Hail Mary marketing push.

Conservatives will play victim and pretend Dems did this to them. Their dumb bullshit will not work this time. The Dems are ready and will be campaigning with the fucking receipts.

I am truly sad that so many innocent people are being harmed by these conservative-caused climate disasters and the deadly conservative mishandling of them.

"God should smite the sinners!"

"Wait, no, not like that!"

I strongly encourage all Florida pure bloods to stay out of the FEMA death camps. Shelter in place.

Fun Fact: when you're heating the sewage water to drink in your flooded town, you don't actually need to boil it. It's fine to just heat it up until you can't keep your hand in the water for ten seconds, that means it's hot enough to kill bacteria.

Tampa Bay and Orlando are two of the largest tourist cities in the state. I'm curious to see what the honorable representatives from Disney and Universal Studios are going to say in the aftermath of this thing.

You see that soulless glare on the faces of a lot of people who have traded their morals for profit.

She's in good company with the GOP, very on brand to be an ignorant cunt throwing your constituent's corpses at the rising tidal waters of reality.

Is she living in that district, though?

Is this another non white woman that's a Republican? Talk about a traitor... Jesus Christ

All so they can say, “Look how little the Biden administration is doing for the people of Florida!”

Literally putting life and property on the chopping block for their political posturing.

She should go stand on the beach and try and stop it with thoughts and prayers

And guess who they will blame when dozens of registered voters die.

I find it frustrating that she's so blazingly hot and simultaneously such an incredibly ugly person. I was explaining this to my girl, and she said "she's like the female Josh Hawley."

Yes, I immediately criticized her for saying he's hot, he looks like a goober d-bag to me. But, she pointed out, as a hetero man my vision isn't clouded by his looks, so all I see is the pure, Emperor Palpatine evilness of him.

She thinks he's evil too, but a good-looking evil apparently.

They will still vote for her.

She's cute so they will back her and continue to vote for her. Florida GOP has figured this out and flexing hard. Run a cute vapid cunt and you're good.

I say we just let Florida go... Maybe make Puerto Rico a state instead... Build a wall to keep Floridians out

What if this time instead of being decent, we just don't send aid. Too long we have let these voters elect these tools without consequences. They don't want aid? We shouldn't send it. Helping regardless sends the exact wrong message.
