CNN: FEMA Administrator Brock Long Announced He Is Resigning from His Post

‘Long said this is one of the toughest choices he had to make’

EXCERPT:

COLLINS: "And this was a surprise, Wolf, that the FEMA administrator Brock Long is leaving after less than two years on the job. Two years that were marked, not just with hurricanes and floods, but also a Government investigation into his use of Government vehicles to travel between Washington and his home state of North Carolina, and a feud with his boss, the DHS secretary Kirstjen Nielsen. Now, today Long said this was one of the toughest choices he's ever had to make, and Nielsen announced that his deputy is going to take over for him. We haven’t heard any comment from the White House yet on Long’s departure. They are facing questions of their own about whether or not President Trump is going to sign this border security spending deal and avoid another Government shutdown when it runs out of money at the end of the week.”
