A Hurricane Hit Florida 18 Days Ago. Trump Still Hasn't Signed For Help.

A hurricane hit Florida's Panhandle. Families still can't apply to FEMA because Trump hasn't signed off. Their congressman's answer: "No, no not yet." Gay Valimont is running to replace him.

Defiant Donkey Oct 27

A week after Hurricane Isaias hit Florida, families stood in a long line for tarps. A county commissioner said close to 100 people were waiting for a roof.

“These kids have not even had a warm shower,” he said.

On October 15th, Florida asked Trump for a major disaster declaration. That signature is what lets families apply to FEMA for help with their homes. More than 41,000 Florida homeowners have filed insurance claims.

Trump has not signed it.

One county spelled it out for its residents. The only federal help so far “covers government response costs only.” Nothing for families.

He Said The Money Would Come From His Office

Trump has said he wants to phase FEMA out. “We’re going to give out less money,” he said. He said disaster aid would come “from the president’s office.”

Now Florida’s families are waiting on the president.

Only the president can sign it. Trump could do it today.

Their Congressman’s Answer: “No, No Not Yet”

Jimmy Patronis is a Trump-endorsed congressman. Most of the storm’s insurance claims came from his district. These families are his voters.

A reporter asked him if Trump had approved the aid. “No, no not yet,” Patronis said.

A week earlier, he praised Florida’s request. He called it “an important step toward getting families and businesses the help they need.” That step is still waiting on Trump.

Every State Gets Hit Eventually

Hurricanes, floods, and wildfires hit every corner of this country. This time Trump is making Florida wait. Next time it could be any town in America.

A Volunteer Is Coming For His Seat

Gay Valimont is running to replace Patronis. She started as a volunteer. She rose to lead a statewide group, and it grew more than 400 percent under her.

Six of every ten dollars Valimont has raised came in gifts under $200. Almost none comes from political groups: under $5,000 of nearly $300,000.

One Week To Election Day

Election Day is November 3rd, one week from today.

A $25 gift this week still pays for Valimont’s ads and door knockers. Every one of them has to reach voters in the next seven days.

The families in that tarp line vote in this race. Patronis told them “not yet.” Valimont has seven days to reach them.

MAGA's Jimmy Patronis Wants To Legalize Machine Guns.

Jimmy Patronis wants automatic weapons legal again. The gun lobby called his bill one of the most important in a generation.

Defiant Donkey Sep 11

Jimmy Patronis wants to make machine guns legal again. He wrote the bill himself.

The Gun Lobby Is Thrilled.

A machine gun fires as fast as you can hold the trigger down. That’s exactly why new ones have been illegal to sell in America since 1986.

In May 2026, Patronis introduced a bill to undo that ban. He’s the only name on it. His defense: “Why do we continue to put more impediments to owning firearms?”

A gun lobby group called his bill “one of the most important Second Amendment bills introduced in a generation.” Gun violence prevention groups called it dangerous.

He didn’t stop with machine guns. In August 2026, he joined nearly fifty Republicans pushing to make silencers and short-barreled rifles easier to get too. He’s a sitting congressman writing the bills that could put automatic weapons back on the shelf.

He Fired A Woman For Saying No To A Shakedown.

Six days before his 2018 election, a former employee sued him. Christine Taul says she was invited to a fundraiser and told to bring a check. When she said no, she says she lost her job.

Patronis’s office called the claim “completely false.” The case went to court anyway. He’s never had to answer for it in front of voters.

She’s Spent A Decade Fighting Gun Violence. He Keeps Trying To Make It Worse.

Gay Valimont didn’t start in politics. After the Sandy Hook school shooting, she became her state’s lead organizer against gun violence. Under her, that chapter grew by more than 400 percent.

While Patronis was writing a bill to legalize machine guns, she was building the group working to keep guns out of the wrong hands in the first place.

Most of her individual donations this year came in under $200 each, campaign filings show. That’s how a grassroots campaign beats a man who’s used to asking for bigger checks.

Jimmy Patronis wrote a bill to put automatic weapons back on the market. He also fires people who won’t pay him. Every dollar for Gay Valimont, the woman who’s spent a decade fighting gun violence, is a dollar against both.
