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.”

    The worst part is he’s been described by FEMA officials as their best shot. He was brought in to destroy the organization, but upon coming in he listened to the people who worked there and has become a strong defender of the org.

    So yeah, he’s completely insane, violently unhinged, and quite possibly the most responsible person Trump has put in charge of a government agency in this administration. It’s a real shitshow
