“Didn’t Trump say something a few weeks back about making them stand on their own? Do It.”
Nope.
From the article;
“The Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration said in a post on social media platform X that it is communicating with the White House and other federal agencies to “ensure that Puerto Rico receives the necessary support and that all essential services are restored as quickly and safely as possible.”
Elsewhere, Puerto Rico’s Center of Emergency Management said on X that it is coordinating with FEMA, Luma Energy, and power generator Genera Power to coordinate any inter-agency efforts and address emergency situations.”
