It’s so heartbreaking seeing the amount of disinformation being spread by elected officials and partisan agitators with lots of followers. FEMA is not out of money, it’s not confiscating damaged property, and it’s not biased for against any ethnic groups or political affiliations.

Bogus hit-and-run story about Vice President Kamala Harris created by Russian troll farm, Microsoft says
