GOP Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC), a member of the House Freedom Caucus, said California disaster aid needs to be paid for & have conditions on it. “We’ve got to get a pound of flesh on any dollar spent on California, in my opinion." Trying to get “a pound of flesh” on aid for Americans who have lost everything is repulsive. Democrats don’t condition aid to red states. They just fucking help them because it’s the right thing to do. And he's not the only GOP member taking this stance. Tuberville made a similar comment.
These peckerheads don't realize that Californians subsidize both of their states. California is an economic power nationally & globally.
The same was not done to DeSantis/Florida when assistance was needed. This reeks of partisan politics & an attempt to paint Newsome as the cause of the disaster.
Disgraceful!

Very. And repugnant to say the least!
