The FEMA supervisor fired over her message about Trump supporters revealed the extent of the “colossal event of avoidance.”

“Senior leadership will lie to you…”

Concerns over the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s handling of recent hurricanes have grown much worse than mere mismanagement. In fact, after supervisor Marn’i Washington was fired for allegedly telling employees to “avoid homes advertising Trump” she joined Roland Martin’s “Unfiltered” podcast to assert the issue wasn’t isolated to the Sunshine State.

Having already asserted that the agency was treating her as a “scapegoat,” Washington detailed Monday that the message originally reported by the Daily Wire was a widespread policy on avoiding “politically hostile” homes.

“FEMA always preaches avoidance first, and then de-escalation. So this is not isolated. This is a colossal event of avoidance, not just in the state of Florida, but you will find avoidance in the Carolinas,” she added as western North Carolina in particular had been devastated by Hurricane Helene.

“Senior leadership will lie to you and tell you that they do not know,” but, she argued further to Martin, incident reports would “substantiate what is happening to us in the field.”

“I have information that proves FEMA is lying,” Washington told the Daily Mail as she revealed that she was seeking an attorney and that she remained “at risk” due to the backlash from the story.

Previously, it had been detailed that the former supervisor had confirmed the accuracy of the messages she said were a response as “FEMA workers were having their lives threatened.”

She told the Washington Examiner, “The notation that was leaked had nothing to do with their political stance. It was with the objective of safety.”

Washington also contended, “If you look at the record there is what you call a community trend…the political hostility that was encountered by my team, they just so happened to have the Trump campaign signage.”

“If we are noticing on, for example, Mary Street, and we’re greeted with unwelcomed arms or people are coming out with guns blazing, screaming at us, then that’s a street we need to avoid altogether,” she added.

In response to the reporting on the avoidance, FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell released a statement deeming the incident “reprehensible” and that “this type of behavior and action will not be tolerated at FEMA and we will hold people accountable if they violate these standards of conduct.”

Meanwhile, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) called for his state’s Division of Emergency Management to conduct its own investigation into the matter.

Monday on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” the Fox News host detailed further concerns from FEMA as he explained they “didn’t answer half the calls it received for disaster aid. Half the calls to FEMA after the hurricane went to voicemail. No response.”

During her appearance with Martin, Washington also shared the notice that she had received about her employment with her full-time job at Avanath Capital Management in California that noted while her termination went into effect Nov. 15, her last day of working was “effective immediately, due to violation of the Company’s core values and workplace policies.”
