Daily Kos -The acting head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency was fired on Thursday amid the Trump administration’s ongoing attacks on the division tasked with handling disaster response. Cameron Hamilton’s termination was reportedly carried out by Deputy Homeland Security Secretary Troy Edgar and longtime Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski, who is serving as de facto chief of staff to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. No reason was given for Hamilton’s dismissal, according to a White House spokesperson.

As the country approaches the start of hurricane season in June, David Richardson, the assistant secretary for the Department of Homeland Security’s Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office, will now serve as acting head of FEMA. Richardson has zero experience in disaster response.
