White House said it didn’t know about key levee break in New Orleans when Katrina hit; records now show they did. Michael Brown, former FEMA Director, personally notified the White House of the news that night. See the details in this piece in tomorrow’s Times.
“There is no question in my mind, that at the highest levels of the White House they understood how grave the situation was,” Brown tells the Times.
Brown testifies before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee tomorrow morning.
Could be interesting.
