Since I live in one of the officially declared "disaster area" counties, it would make me very cross if this were to be verified rather than remain at pure speculation.
We were 5 days into the darkness before word filtered in that Comrade Bidenov-Harriskiyy had declared us a "disaster area" before skyying off to sit on his ass in a goddamned lawn chair at his Black Sea dacha vacation home.
Must be nice to be able to simply declare a disaster with the flick of a wrist and then just scoot of to sip mixed drinks on a vacation while the folks in the disaster area have to scrape and scratch for water and candles just to be able to step into the 18th century.
BTW, as usual we're still looking for some sign of "disaster relief" funds to assist us. Not gonna hold my breath, though, since I'm still waiting on the "poverty relief" Johnson promised Appalachians in a "War on Poverty" speech in Ashland Kentucky back in the 60's. Still ain't seen either promise, expect we never will.
I hear in the wind that kitty has been emptied to provide cushy lives for border-crossing foreign invaders, and to maintain the ongoing Russian Civil War in the style to which they'd like to become accustomed, so as usual there is nothing in the coffers to make good on those hollow promises anyhow.
Your tax dollars at work, government in action....
