“It is dangerous, it is unconscionable, frankly, that anyone who considers themselves a leader would mislead desperate people to the point that those desperate people would not receive the aid to which they are entitled,” Harris told CNN’s Dana Bash.

“We all know it’s dangerous and the gamesmanship has to stop,” she continued. “At some point the politics has to end, especially in a moment of crisis.”

Trump has amplified claims that the government is diverting disaster response funds to aid migrants and has shared other untrue claims, including that those impacted by Hurricane Helene are only receiving $750 in assistance and that there are no helicopters to rescue people in North Carolina after the storm.

Harris, on CNN, said she has spoken with local officials who are trying to combat misinformation and said she doesn’t know if they are Republicans or Democrats.

    Call it what it is: Treasonous political terrorism. People will or have already died because of the filth coming out of this double-assholed shit bag.

      There is no treason in Republican America.

      Unless you’re LBGQT+. Or a poor minority. Or not Christian. Or said bad things about dear leader. Or approve of gun control. Or you’re pro-choice. We’ll just nail the list to every government building.
