Podcast host Joe Rogan and former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard expressed heavy criticism of the Biden administration over its response to the Maui wildfire disaster and the lack of support residents have received.
Rogan, the host of The Joe Rogan Experience, discussed how the Pentagon revealed earlier this year it had overvalued military aid to Ukraine, which is continuing its war with Russia that started in February of last year, by $6 billion. Upon learning about this money"accidentally" sent to Ukraine, Rogan went to see how much it would cost to rebuild all the homes damaged or destroyed by the wildfires in Hawaii, with the total being $5 billion.
Gabbard, who used to be a member of the Democratic Party, agreed with Rogan, adding that she visited Maui and said people asked if the Biden administration would give them money for repairs"if we started to call ourselves Ukraine." She also took issue with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's response to the tragedy, which offered all victims of the wildfires a one-time payment of $700 per household.
"Hawaii has the highest cost of living in the entire country — the entire country," Gabbard said."And how fricking insulting is it to have the lead disaster response administrator from the Biden administration stand there and proudly say, 'Hey, we're giving everybody one $700 payment.
In late August, FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell said the agency will focus on prioritizing available funding toward Hurricane Idalia, the Maui wildfires, and “any other extreme weather events that may come our way without interruption.”
