Florida has sued the Federal Emergency Management Agency, alleging discrimination in hurricane relief efforts against supporters of President-elect Donald Trump. The lawsuit, filed by Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, accuses FEMA officials of deliberately denying aid to victims of Hurricanes Helene and Milton based on their political affiliation.

The suit names FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell and former FEMA supervisor Marn'i Washington as defendants.

The federal lawsuit claims that FEMA officials conspired to discriminate against hurricane victims who displayed support for the former president. Specifically, the complaint accuses Washington of directing workers to avoid aiding homes displaying Trump campaign signs after Hurricane Milton hit Florida in late September and early October, according to NPR.

Is this the beginning of what we could see in countries ruled by »Trump fans«, e.g. Hungary: The persecution of political enemies (in the widest sense of the word) by means that seem legal at first glance (e.g. false accusations)?

Or is there real substance in that lawsuit?
