You are not accurate. I landed there 4 days in a row. They had plenty of water . They had food. And I deliver more myself and people were in high spirits under the circumstances. We gave them cat and dog food few people had animals. Solar lights. Cleaning stuff. The team you see there is Urban rescue NY-1 that checked all area up and down the stream looking for people or bodies etc 18 of them and 3 dogs…@NationalGuard was there. Many young man and woman. What you describe is a lie. All those teams and people are @fema all are @WhiteHouse all are @RoyCooperNC and many NGO’s and citizens helping as well. You are doing a disservice to your fellow Americans. This has been a good response. More needs to be done? Agree….Let’s do it together….

I spent Tuesday outside of Bat Cave, located in the mountains of NC. It’s one of the hardest areas hit by Hurricane Helene 11 days earlier. I spoke to residents that don’t have electricity, internet & cell service. I asked each of them about the help they’ve received from FEMA, the state of NC & others. To a person, they said they’ve yet to see or hear from FEMA or any NC govt official. I spoke to a man that is helping distribute necessities to his neighbors in the area. Me: What are you seeing or hearing from FEMA or even from the state government level? Man: (3 seconds of silence) Do you hear that silence? (Another second of silence) That’s what we’ve heard. In another area just outside Bat Cave, there sits a sign asking where FEMA is located. At another location, a sign thanks @elonmusk and encourages people to vote. (Pics below) The responses are all the same, including from road repair workers. Me: How has it been interacting with the governments and local authorities. Worker: The local governments have been great. The state and federal governments suck. We haven’t even see FEMA. Of the seven people I spoke to that reside several miles apart, they all responded the same way and said only “civilians” and some road crews are helping.

The amount of misinformation on both sides is astounding. Can we please focus on this recovery, the people who are hurting and the 1000s of first responders and civilians absolutely risking everything to help people right now.

Former GA Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan has endorsed Kamala Harris for President.

A courageous and selfless decision. The President did what he’s done for the last four years - he listened to the American people and put the country’s interests ahead of his own.
The exact opposite of Donald Trump.

They are talking about walking away from a BIPARTISAN border security bill that finally takes on the flow of Fentanyl at the border?
A bill supported by the Border Patrol Union?
People want solutions, not political attacks.

@TMZ Our ring camera got another ridiculous mom situation - using her shirt and not even letting her kid get the candy!

Weapons of war have no place on the streets of a civil society.
It is time for Congress to renew the assault weapons ban.

It's obscene that women's bodies are regulated more heavily here than weapons of war.

New congressional maps for NC just dropped.
A brutal gerrymander.
Just being honest: I’m probably toast in Congress.

Please watch this video of STUDENTS HAVING TO JUMP OUT OF WINDOWS at UNC Chapel Hill for safety & ask yourself if this should be normal. This is why we are outraged, pissed off, & ready to vote out anyone who doesn’t take action. This is sickening.

Pastor Joel Osteen pays himself an annual salary of $54,000,000 from his church profits. He had a custom garage built with 20 car stalls for each of his custom vehicles. His favorite is a Ferrari 458 Italia that cost $270,000. He lives in a 70,000 sq ft mansion.
In the New Testament, four different times Jesus tells his followers to always pay their taxes. Why is it in the United States that churches don’t have to pay taxes? The IRS figures if all churches paid their fair share of 15% taxes that it would total over $2 trillion a year.
More than enough to solve the homelessness in this country, since it looks like these Pastors would rather spend your donations on New Cars instead of feeding the hungry.

Grant Wahl’s reporting from Qatar has been essential, including taking the government to task for its homophobia and horrific working conditions. Now he is dead, suddenly, in Qatar at the age of 48. Read his recent work here: grantwahl.substack.com/p/world-cup-da…
