Video shared by @anibalacevedo today. Some context. It is from Aug. 26, 2019. It shows Carlos Acevedo, now former emergency director, clearly stating that the gov't has 5 warehouses with plenty of relief supplies. Who is next to him?
@wandavazquezg gov of #PuertoRico. Wow.
@wandavazquezg gov of #PuertoRico. Wow.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg This video would clearly dispute the claim that @wandavazquezg, the governor of #PuertoRico, didn't know about these warehouses. She is LITERALLY right next to Acevedo.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg Now Elmer Román, Sec of State for Puerto Rico (also in the video) is saying that this was never about warehouses existing, it is about how these supplies were not distributed during #PuertoRicoEarthquakes. He is blaming this all on Acevedo. You can't make this up.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg Are you kidding me? Seriously, are you kidding me? Now am listening to Elmer Román, PR's Sec of State, spinning his way out of this on @radioislatv. He is putting complete blame on Acevedo on not on him or Gov. Vázquez.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv Am taking a moment and realizing that gov't of Puerto Rico is really inept. Román just confirmed that relief supplies delivery failed. And Román is placing blame of Acevedo only. Not on him and not on the Governor.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv Puerto Rico's political class really thinks that the people of Puerto Rico are stupid.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv Elmer Román, the current Secretary of State in #PuertoRico, is literally trying to spin his way out of gov't ineptitude right now on @radioislatv. It is class Puerto Rican politician saying, "It's not my fault."
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv The Secretary of State for Puerto Rico Elmer Román just told @MillyMendezpr that he found out about the relief supplies in Ponce warehouse through social media.
Think about that.
The Secretary of State for Puerto Rico.
Think about that.
The Secretary of State for Puerto Rico.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv @MillyMendezpr Elmer Román used to be Sec of Public Safety too. To claim that he didn't know about this is bs. Come on, no somos brutos. Now, Román saying that Puerto Rico Public Safety dept is not like DHS.
All his excuses. Wow.
All his excuses. Wow.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv @MillyMendezpr Right now, Sec of State Elmer Román on @radioislatv is embarrassing himself. Blaming everyone else but him for what he said was a failure in emergency response. #PuertoRico
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv @MillyMendezpr Seriously, Román (and @wandavazquezg) are seriously blaming this mess all on Carlos Acevedo, former emergency director, and nobody else.
@anibalacevedo @wandavazquezg @radioislatv @MillyMendezpr Elmer Román now telling @MillyMendezpr that he is doing all this for Puerto Rico, that he is all for transparency and that if the people of Puerto Rico don't want him, he understands.
