Official who claims to have once teleported to Waffle House on leave at FEMA

A Trump administration appointee who claims to have once teleported to a Waffle House is now on leave from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). A FEMA spokesperson confirmed in a statement to The Hill that Gregg Phillips, who was leading a key disaster response office, is taking “leave for personal reasons.” “Since joining the agency, he has played a pivotal role in stabilizing the Office of Response and Recovery and advancing key reforms to strengthen our mission delivery,” said the spokesperson, who did not provide their name.
