Episode Details

Cameron Hamilton is back in charge of FEMA — a major move after his surprise firing last year for defending the agency. Now permanently leading the sprawling disaster response team, he’s promising to restore fairness, fix bureaucratic chaos, and rebuild trust — even as the administration pushes to shift more responsibility to states. His turnaround from skeptic to advocate signals a potential pivot away from eliminating FEMA, though sweeping reforms are still on the table. With a packed summer ahead and over a thousand disaster declarations looming, Hamilton’s leadership could be the stability this beleaguered agency desperately needs.
