Gregg Phillips, the Trump administration official in charge of FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery, accused President Donald Trump’s Truth Social of “blocking” his posts on Wednesday after claiming to have teleported to a Waffle House 50 miles away.

Phillips made headlines last month after it was revealed by CNN’s KFile that he had made a number of bizarre statements, including claims that he had teleported to a Waffle House 50 miles away.

“I was with my boys one time and I was telling them I was gonna go to Waffle House and get Waffle House,” said Phillips during a January 2025 interview. “And I ended up at a Waffle House. This was in Georgia and I end up at a Waffle House like 50 miles away from where I was.”

I'm really good at teleporting home: I'm hanging with my friends, then bam I wake up in my bed and I see a big mug of water teleported to my bedside table! Stay hydrated with that teleport water, folks!
