they're unelected lifelong bureaucrats who's biggest concerns are avoiding an oversight hearing and securing next year's budget increase so they can steal more through graft. they don't give a single fuck about anyone suffering, one way or the other.  facebook boomer rage is like the easiest flame to fan, and now that they've stoked that fire, all criticisms can be swept under the rug of "right wing conspiracies".  this isn't maui where they can fence off a little area and have comms and satellite coverage. it's a massive area still covered in trees and brush; areas where there's no cel coverage on any day. no swinging dick federal agents are gonna fuck with people in those mountains unless they have an entire platoon behind them. it's completely unbelievable. fema dropping the ball on their response and trying to take credit for the work of private orgs should be the story here, but it's been drowned out by fedposting.
