The top official in charge of the federal government’s disaster response has taken to social media to double down on his claim that he’s experienced “teleportation” – an experience he insists was real and connected to his religious beliefs – while also saying his remarks have been taken out of context.

Democratic Rep. Tim Kennedy described Phillips as “wildly unfit for his role as head of FEMA response and recovery,” citing “his violent statements about former President Biden” and “deeply troubling bigoted comments about immigrants.”

Kennedy added: “All of which, to me, makes him wholly disqualified to hold his position on its own — but only to be outdone by his claims of being teleported to a Waffle House.”
