Washington Post reporter Brianna Sack’s interpretation of Cameron Hamilton’s reportedly forthcoming nomination to lead the Federal Emergency Management Agency, a bureau he was forced out of last year after he publicly opposed FEMA’s dissolution, is probably correct.

“Hamilton’s potential return suggests that Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is moving away from previous efforts to undercut the autonomy of the nation’s emergency management and response system championed by his predecessor, Kristi L. Noem,” she wrote.
