Kristi Noem says Trump wants FEMA 'remade,' and more tariffs are set for U.S. trade partners: Weekend Rundown Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said President Donald Trump wants the Federal Emergency Management Agency “remade” rather than dismantled entirely.

During his first weekend back in the White House, Trump again visited North Carolina to scope out Helene damage and toured the aftermath of devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. But he also used those trips to sharply criticize the Biden administration and California officials.

A reporter from CBS News Texas asked the president Friday if more lives could've been saved if emergency alerts were issued earlier.

As Trump heads to Texas to see the impact of last week’s deadly flash floods, the White House has backed away from plans to abolish FEMA, officials said.

In the wake of deadly flooding in Texas, we don’t know where the current FEMA chief is, or whether he’s doing the job. That’s not ideal.

President Donald Trump was expected to arrive in Kerr County, Texas, Friday afternoon, one week after the area was struck by catastrophic flooding.
