FEMA has fired a female supervisor, Marn’i Washington, who instructed relief workers to bypass homes displaying Trump signs during Hurricane Milton relief efforts. The incident, which occurred in Florida in late October, was labeled as 'targeted discrimination' by Governor Ron DeSantis. FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell confirmed the firing in a statement. The agency did not disclose further details about the employee or the exact location of the incident. The action has sparked demands for accountability from various political figures, including Senator Katie Britt, who is seeking answers from the Biden Administration. The homes targeted displayed signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump.
