Criswell [FEMA Administrator, White House press conference]: We're working carefully to search the affected areas [Maui] thoroughly, and compassionately, while respecting all the cultural sensitivities.
Reporter: We keep interviewing survivor after survivor who says that either they didn't see any government personnel or assistance for days, or that they still haven't. How do you explain the disconnect between what they're saying, and what you're saying about all the resources that are there right now?
Criswell: I think you need to understand that this community is going through an amazingly traumatic event.
[suggesting they are so traumatized that they are unaware government assistance is there?]
Podesta [White House press conference]: The toll of extreme weather, fueled by climate change, is being felt across the country and the world. This summer has brought one climate disaster after another, from extreme heat in Arizona and Texas, and across the southeast, to floods in Vermont and upstate New York, to thick smoke from Canadian wildfires. And all of us have watched in horror as the Maui fires have claimed over a hundred lives.
