Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said FEMA was “tremendously prepared” for hurricane season just three months ago.

In interview footage posted to Twitter by Gregg Re of the Daily Wire, Mayorkas expressed confidence that FEMA would be able to handle anything this year’s hurricane season could throw at it.

“FEMA is tremendously prepared. This is what we do. This is what they do,” Mayorkas said in July.

The Homeland Security Secretary added that FEMA also wanted to ensure that the “communities who are potentially impacted are prepared as well.”

“And it’s not just hurricanes—wildfires also, extreme heat, which certainly some parts of the United States are already experiencing.”

The video clip continues by contrasting those remarks with Mayorkas’s more recent comments, made this week, about FEMA being strapped for cash and unable to meet the full burden of hurricane response.

“We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. We do not have the funds—FEMA does not have the funds—to make it through the season.”

Much of the anger at the bungling government response to Hurricane Helene Has been directed at FEMA, which it has been revealed allocated a billion dollars over the last two fiscal years to rehouse illegal aliens across the US.

In an exclusive report for Frontlines Turning Point USA, Savanah Hernandez travelled to Brunswick, Maine and spoke to residents of apartments that are being provided for up to two years, free of all costs, to migrants. The apartments come fully furnished, including with flatscreen TVs.

“There is a housing crisis going on currently for residents, and these buildings were initially created for Maine residents, and then it was decided that homeless migrants would be living here,” Hernandez explains in a video posted to Twitter.

According to a statistic displayed during the video, 79.1% of Maine families were unable to afford a home in 2023.

At current local rates, the apartments being given to migrants would cost between $1800 and $2300 dollars a month, depending on the number of bedrooms.

The average price for a house in Brunswick is over $480,000.
