Much to the Media's dismay, I believe it was Operational Funds, not Disaster Funds.  When Homeland Security(HS) was established,
and agencies like FEMA were merged into it, the Agency budgets were combined...though HS will ask for funding  by Agency
requirements...It all starts out in an overall pool, and HS has the authority to redirect if funding is in surplus.  Which in fact is the case
here.  Fema has 10 million is excess funding, which will expire at the end of this month, so HS has reassigned it to ICE.  Perfectly
normal.  FEMA's current operation in preparation for Florence landfall is paid for out of the Disaster Fund.

Yes. FEMA lost some of its funding but there are other organizations like the Red Cross and the Coast Gaurd that also provide disaster relief and assistance to areas hit by natural disasters. There are more than one disaster relief organizations in America but only one ICE.

Well, we now know what the narrative is going to be. Whatever happens during this storm it will because Trump took money away and gave it to ICE and right before the mid terms.

There was news conference yesterday morning with the NC Emergency folks. This was the first question some reporterette asked. Obviously a political question and not a hurricane preparedness question. The responder said FEMA had plenty of funds for this event. Later, the reasoning you provided about the funds was explained.

Amen to that.  During one of the LA Earthquake disasters, Loma Prieda I think.  Part of the mission
of the RC and Salvation Army was to provide temp housing (tents), and food to evacuee's.  64 Million
was taken out of the Presidential Disaster Fund to pay for this effort.  Later, The RC made a major
public appeal for funds, saysing they had spent 64 million, and their funds were depleted.  They
never spend a nickle, FEMA paid for it all.  Elizabeth Dole at her very best, This was the same year
that RC built their super new hQ in DC.
