FEMA chief Brock Long is leading efforts to control the damage and provide federal resources in the aftermath of the storm that hit southeast Texas on Friday night, The Hill reports.
Trump, facing the first large-scale natural disaster of his presidency, said on Twitter he signed a disaster proclamation which « unleashes the full force of government help » shortly before Harvey made landfall.
In the early hours of the morning Saturday, after the storm barreled through the Texas coast, Trump took to Twitter announcing to the people of Texas that « America is with you »:
