An official with the Federal Emergency Management Agency ordered relief workers helping those devastated by Hurricane Milton in Florida to bypass homes with Trump signs. 

According to internal messages obtained by The Daily Wire, a FEMA supervisor told workers to ‘avoid homes advertising Trump’ as they worked around Lake Placid. 

Supervisor Marn’i Washington had relayed the message in a group chat and verbally, according to employees who spoke with the outlet. 

They said that they skipped over at least 20 houses with signage indicating their support for the President-elect due to the guidance passed down by Washington. 

The text message says to ‘implement best practices’ which included the directive ‘avoid home advertising Trump’. It also advised workers to drink coconut water to replenish electrolytes.
