“Under Secretary Noem and Acting Administrator Richardson, FEMA is shifting from bloated, DC-centric dead weight to a lean, deployable disaster force that empowers state actors to provide relief for their citizens,” they said in a statement. “The old processes are being replaced because they failed Americans in real emergencies for decades”

This is a flat out lie. Plenty is being destroyed and nothing is being replaced.
