President Donald Trump was famous for his reality television show line, in days gone by, "You're fired!"

It seems that's what he wants now to do with FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, that cadre of bureaucrats who admitted skipping over homes that displayed Trump signs in the aftermath of a hurricane disaster in North Carolina.

The opinion also comes on the heels of the firing of four FEMA employees who went against orders and siphoned off $59 million in federal tax money to give to New York City for housing illegals.

Trump wrote, on social media, "FEMA spent tens of millions of dollars in Democrat areas, disobeying orders, but left the people of North Carolina high and dry. It is now under review and investigation. THE BIDEN RUN FEMA HAS BEEN A DISASTER. FEMA SHOULD BE TERMINATED! IT HAS BEEN SLOW AND TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE. INDIVIDUAL STATES SHOULD HANDLE STORMS, ETC., AS THEY COME. BIG SAVINGS, FAR MORE EFFICIENT!!!'

A report at Bloomberg said the comment was a widening of Trump's fight against the federal bureaucracy. He campaigned on, and was elected to, impose transparency, responsible spending, and elimination of fraud, on government.

And the report noted such a change would transform how the U.S. addresses disaster assistance.

It was Elon Musk, Trump's chief of the Department of Government Efficiency, who had complained that the agency, against orders, had sent payments to New York City for housing for illegals.

A report at ABC pointed out that Kristi Noem, Trump's newly appointed secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, already has endorsed the idea of eliminating FEMA, as least "the way it exists today."
