I’m so sorry and I pray The Lord will help you all. I experienced a flood from a hurricane 2 years ago in Florida. I was so shocked seeing 6 inches of water in my house. But that is nothing compared to what you guys have experienced! You’re in my prayers!

    • @lisalapoint7022
      @lisalapoint7022 2 วันที่ผ่านมา +29

      $750 that people need internet, devices, and electricity to apply for. THEN, they have to be in the correct financial demographic to eligible. And they are not eligible if they have house insurance!!! THEN, they need to be able to access a bank or a ATM. As if any of them have flood insurance, or that insurance can buy food, socks, water, or anything more than a few days of real shelter -- if they could even get transport out. That $750 is an insult from someone who is a moron, at best, and a monster, at worst.

      These are actual quotes and conversations from Biden, Kamala and Mayorkas from today. Keep in mind we are spending BILLIONS on Ukaraine, Israel and taking care of illegal migrants.
      ---------
      Reporter: What do the States in the storm zone need?..... Mr President?
      Biden: What?
      Reporter: The States in the storm zone? What do they need after what you saw today?
      Biden: Oh, the storm zone? Yeah. I was wondering what storm you're talking about. They uh, they're getting everything they need. And they're very happy across the board.

What happened last week was terrible and it's one of the worst we've seen but every 40 to 60 years major flooding occurs somewhere in the many valleys we have here. I like wearing my tinfoil hat just as much as you guys and I promise that I hate the gubment more than you do but sometimes things just happen for no reason at all. Sometimes it rains and sometimes water is wet.

    In NC we have a democrat governor, Roy Cooper, who prioritized shutting down businesses and marching with BLM during Covid. I expect nothing less than dismal results from him. The national news is to busy trying to tarnish our Lt Governor, Mark Robinson, who is now running for Governor, instead of reporting on the horrors of what has happened and the neglect of democrat officials. Mark Robinson has been working with local sheriff departments and organizations and personally delivering much needed supplies since last week. Roy Cooper has been in Raleigh doing press conferences.

    Writing this comment from a grocery store in Western North Carolina just so I can have wifi and make sure my friends are alive right now. Can confirm North Carolina's response for the mountains has been abysmal. As usual for times of disaster, they're ignoring us mountain folk to send aid to the State's richest in Raleigh and Charlotte, whose biggest problems right now are having to go a few hours (gasp) without high speed internet, and not being able to go get their nails done. Hundreds are missing right here and this State's atrocious Democrat government has just sent our national guard to the Middle East. To the government, we're just a bunch of dumb, bigoted hillbillies nobody cares about.
    I wouldn't worry too much about us though. Southern Appalachia is the most impoverished region in the country. We're tough as nails out here, and we've been failed and forgotten by the government for so long that we're used to it, and have backup plans for our backup plans for scenarios exactly like this one. This storm was strong but our communities are stronger. All the men in my neighborhood have been going around with chainsaws all week cutting up fallen trees and clearing the roads, because we know damn well nobody cares about us, and if we don't help ourselves, nobody will. Us women have been boiling creek water to drink, bottling it up, and driving around giving it for free to those who need it most. Things are bad, but we've been ready for this for decades.
    To anyone with family or friends in Western NC you can't get ahold of, I know it's scary, but take it from me as a local, they're in good hands. They're gonna be fine. We're all gonna be fine. #NCSTRONG❤❤

      It doesn't help that people were bringing things to help but a few that I heard on TH-cam said that they were told to bring the stuff to different drop off places and it would be given out. There was one guy that loaded up and want to get stuff to people that would need four wheel drive to get it there. I'm sure he was aware that four wheel drive couldn't get every where but he was doing his best. He ended up getting told to bring it to a location. It sounded to me that he didn't have a choice. I'm going back thru what I watched to see if he was turned away. We have churches in Michigan that want to get a semi and load it up with necessities but the only thing I heard was they were not able to get answers. It makes me sick that there are people suffering, help needs to get there.

    Trained to hike in rough terrain,
    Trained to build temporary bridges and Roads in wartime ,

    There are people right now as I’m typing this desperately in need of life and death rescue ! It makes no sense to me whatsoever. I’m in Charleston where we had hurricane Hugo 35 years ago and that is what they did.
    This is much worse there are already over 200 people dead! Time is of the essence just like when the world trade towers collapsed but they still found people alive!

They want the US to be socialist/communist like China, they will have formulated a social credit score system as well, you will be penalized if you don't support and agree with their political agenda. There's also major land grabs happening now. Well Lahaina Hawaii fire was planned by the elite to remove the original settlers and families from the Hawaiian land that they owned through the generations. You can thank Oprah for that.

They've blocked access to the entire western part of the state. There are people all over social media asking for a way through so they can help save those stranded. Entire tractor trailers full of supplies are being turned away or stored in a FEMA camp.
    I'm not sure if it's true, but I've also heard people say that officials are leaving dead bodies instead of collecting them. The local hotels are so full of federal employees that the people who've lost everything have to so place to stay once they're rescued.
    My local church is going on Monday and Tuesday, and I plan to be there. We've already collected lots of supplies. I plan on hiking for miles if I have to. The state and federal response is disgustingly embarrassing. If not for civilians, most of those stranded would still be.

It is MISMANAGEMEMT BY OUR CURRENT GOVERNMEMT, the liberals. They must believe that if you don’t hear about it in the media, it’s not important enough for you to know about it. But if it was YOUR daughter and son in law who had lost everything or your grandchildren who were washed away in flood waters and are missing, you just might care a little bit, wouldn’t you?

    We cannot understand why governor cooper is not responding accordingly. It will be a week tomorrow. It is the private citizens. Its the small churches. Samaritans purse. Veteran organizations. They are buying out of their own pockets and doing the work.
    Towns like boone, Asheville, chimney rock, they are islands unto themselves. Roads washed away. One lane roads into these areas. Chain saws need gas. There is none unless brought in small batches by private citizens. Semi trucks can not go on these roads. Stores running out of food.
    I could go on, but i am getting angry.
    This does not appear to be political. There are black people in Ashville. This is not a race issue. This is a governor who is not prepared.

You know Fema was only going to give you less than a 5th of what they gave illegals this year, but they apparently don't even have that. That isn't political? Trump isn't even the president and he was there before them. His go fund me raised half of what the government is trying to scrap together for you already. Let's be real.
