I keep seeing all sorts of stuff about FEMA being all sorts of things but isnt it just the US government being able to move in and help out?

To be fair, FEMA has a had a bad track record, but like others said, politics keeps pushing those failures to the front on top of spewing outright lies about FEMA.
FEMA has kind of been an experimental program in some ways. Ever since it was created, FEMA has run into problems one natural disaster after another, but every single administration so far had taken measures to improve and fix the failure points of the program. Regardless of what side of the aisle they were on, FEMA had been getting better and better thanks to both Republican and Democrat administrations making changes needed to prevent the same failures from repeating again.
That was true up until the Trump administration, who actually took funding and resources away from FEMA. Which is funny because he is currently blaming the Biden administration of doing exactly that, despite no evidence to back up his claim.
