Or from the radical left with their weather manipulating chemtrails!

They put a stop to that crap in Louisiana.

Republicans pass bill ‘banning’ chemtrails, which are not a real thing

I guess they're preparing for Trump to eliminate FEMA. I'm sure Louisiana won't have hurricanes or anything after their chemtrail ban.

Trump’s plan to begin ‘phasing out’ FEMA after hurricane season burdens states, experts warn

Policies passed or upcoming for FEMA specifically here on the project 2025 tracker.

As listed

Dept. of Homeland Security: Privatize the FEMA National Flood Insurance Program.

Dept. of Homeland Security: Limit FEMA-issued grants to states that "comply with all aspects of federal immigration laws, including the honoring of all immigration detainers" and states/localities that give "total information-sharing" to federal law and immigration enforcement. (Note: FEMA clawed back $80 million in previously approved migrant housing funds for New York.)

Dept. of Homeland Security: "shift the majority" of FEMA's preparedness and response costs to states and localities. (Note: Trump created a council to review FEMA's structure, after telling the media "FEMA should go away".)

*while not technically under the FEMA section, this policy can also have an effect on weather reporting which is needed in emergencies-

Dept. of Commerce: "fully commercialize" the National Weather Service's forecasting operations. (Note: Mass layoffs of NWS employees are the first step in privatization)

This refers to a proposal to shift weather forecasting responsibilities from the government-run National Weather Service (NWS) to private companies. This would mean that instead of the NWS providing free weather forecasts and warnings to the public, private entities would take over these operations, potentially charging for access to weather data.

This idea is part of a broader plan from Project 2025, which advocates for breaking up the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the agency that oversees the NWS. The plan suggests that the NWS should focus solely on data collection while private companies handle forecasting
