  3. @heidilifeldman This is good to hear, but it won't help that FEMA fired or reassigned all the staff writing on BRIC projects. All the allocated funding has been 'deobligated' and returned to Treasury accounts.

    The states still have staff that can manage the grants from the recipient side, but the bureaucracy to implement the program is long gone.

  5. Judge blocks Trump admin. from reallocating billions in FEMA disaster relief funds – CBS News

    By Hannah Marr, August 5, 2025 / 9:18 PM EDT / CBS News

    None.

    A federal judge on Tuesday temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to reallocate more than $4 billion in federal funding geared toward natural disaster mitigation projects, arguing the transfer could lead to “irreparable harm” to flood-prone areas.  

    The injunction by U.S. District Judge Richard G. Stearns in Boston followed a July lawsuit brought by 20 states. They argued that FEMA’s Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program had been unlawfully terminated in April 2025 under the Trump administration, with more than $4 billion in unspent funding that had been allocated by Congress redirected without its authority. Stearns wrote that the court was “not convinced” that Congress had intended for the money to be reallocated.

    “The BRIC program is designed to protect against natural disasters and save lives,” Stearns wrote.

    Stearns ruled that government officials were temporarily blocked from repurposing the funds while the court considers the state’s objections to the cuts.

    The July lawsuit alleged that ending the BRIC program would upend disaster preparedness efforts across the country, leaving communities unable to tap into critical funding for hundreds of already-approved resilience projects. Before it was halted, the BRIC program provided funding for local infrastructure projects such as stormwater management systems and the relocation or elevation of buildings in flood-prone zones.

    FEMA officials originally announced in April that they were “ending” the BRIC program because it is “wasteful” and had become more concerned with “political agendas than helping Americans recover from natural disasters.” But in a court filing last week, the disaster response agency walked back those comments, stating that they hadn’t cut the program and were still evaluating whether they will end or revise it.

  7. The U.S. is no longer a leader on climate efforts — as other nations work on reducing emissions and decarbonizing, the Trump administration is making long-term decisions that prioritize fossil fuels. @time takes a look at how this shift creates new geopolitical dynamics.

  10. #Trump threatens #BRIC nations with 100% #tariff, if they deviate from using the US Dollar as the reserve currency in international trading. This seems indistinguishable from economic #imperialism thehill.com/business/5118693-t

  11. #Putin has achieved a LOT
    with #Trump & #MAGAs
    literally brought #America to its knees
    socially & economically
    (also separating Her from its Allies)
    but
    to achieve a TOTAL victory
    Putin needs Trump to kill the 'Dollar'
    (to facilitate #BRIC')
    (pay no attention to Trump's advertising BS)
    look at what He actually does
    Trump is undermining the dollar by actively pushing '#cryptocurrencies'
    doing so will decrease the relevance of the American currency in the world.
    the 'coup de grace' for America.

    Und nun legt man auch bei #Soja-Importen gewaltig zu:

    "#Soybean imports jumped 25% from a year earlier, as the surge in cheap and plentiful shipments from #Brazil continued." 5) - Mit #Brasilien hatte man sich ja gerade erst im Rahmen von #BRIC weiter angenähert.

    Ich kann mich natürlich mit allem täuschen, ein Schelm, der Böses dabei denkt...

    Serious question:

    Did anyone see the financial-system would-be revolutionaries #ElonMusk or #PeterThiel at the venue of the #BRIC conference in #SouthAfrica?

    Maybe @elonjet knows?
    (BTW, are there "PeterJet" and "MarkJet" (Zuckerberg)?)
