Prior to about the 1950s. Federal Level Disaster Relief was regularly handled by the Military and to a lesser extent Federal Law Enforcement. And sometimes Congress would exempt a City or Region from Taxes/paying tariffs for a period as an early form of Disaster Relief. And largely left on the ground relief to Civilian Volunteers and Local/State Authorities.
Though in numerous instances. Federal Troops would act under direction of Local Commanders without direct orders from the War Department, President, or Congress. To provide support to local and state Governments. Such as the 1906 Earthquake in San Francisco.
WW2 saw the birth of the Agencies that would later become FEMA namely the Office of Civil Defense and its later successors. And up until the 1970s. They primarily focused on Education and training Volunteers to provide support to their local communities. Firefighting. Chemical Decontamination etc. Along with running CONELRAD a radio station that was meant to continuously broadcast important information to the Citizenry regarding Disasters or Nuclear Attack. Congress though steadfastly refused to fund their Programs to the requested rates though. Meaning their actual ability to support the Citizenry was limited.
1978 saw FEMA established by Jimmy Carter. Condensing the adhoc nature of Several Poorly funded Emergency Relief and Civil Defense Programs/Agencies prior to that year. And up until 2003. FEMA operated independently. After 2003 Bush put the under the Authority of DHS.

We need FEMA to launder money and that's all they do!

1 week too late thanks to Harris regime
I thought they were going to israel.
Which BCT? The whole division? I was a cav scout with 1/75 cav bct back in the day o7
What happens if FEMA threatens military with arrest if they provide aid?
Hopefully the military will arrest THEM and declare martial law.
Why do I get the feeling the Biden/Harris admin is flipping their shit about this. "WE DIDN'T APPROVE THIS!!"
I thought they couldnt be deployed domestically...
They can't be deployed to operate against us. I don't think the wording prevents them performing rescue, aid and relief duties.
Ah, ok. Just seems like DS would try to use that as precedence
It’s around. 8 days too late
On who's orders?
