Around lunchtime, Elon Musk shared a dire message from one of his SpaceX engineers on the ground in the storm-ravaged state. Musk said:
"FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help!"Musk shared a dire warning from one of his engineers on the ground:
"Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We've deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives.
"The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It's very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough."
What a mess.
Insanity.
Radio transmissions from first responders in Mecklenburg County provided firsthand accounts of the government blocking relief efforts by private citizens. This is disturbing.
"FEMA's involvement has seriously complicated the rescue efforts," one X user wrote, citing individuals on the ground.
Americans quickly understood by the end of the week the big theme in Biden-Harris' botched hurricane response efforts, very similar to the dismal response in East Palestine, Ohio, as explained by The Bishop of Mises Institute:
"This horrific natural disaster is a reminder of the extent to which the regime [Biden-Harris] hates the people who live there."Folks were even more shocked when the US Homeland Security secretary warned that FEMA funds were running dry for hurricane disaster funding. This is because the Biden-Harris team diverted $1.4 billion to address the migrant crisis they helped create through open southern border policies.
Prepper All Naturals on the ground
A group of citizen responders from Prepper All Naturals - a veteran-owned emergency food company which delivered $60,000 of meat and arranged for sanitary stations - reports that the scene is chaotic and unmanaged by FEMA.
Team lead Scotty Clay reported:
"Things here are far worse than expected, or that is being reported. I won't go into detail on the deaths. Too gruesome. There will also be more out there, especially in the remote places that will starve or die from disease. Search and Rescue Team here this morning. The team in our vicinity found 135 dead yesterday. The death toll will be bad. Many were way up high in the trees."
Even before the storm was churning in the Gulf of Mexico, the Biden-Harris administration of far-left radicals weaponized the FCC against Musk and blocked Starlink from a rural federal contract that would've supplied the state with 20,000 terminals. If these terminals had been active ahead of the storm and during its early days, they could've saved lives.I remember going down to Winne and Beaumont after Rita hit. This is far far worse than that. How can that (hurricane force winds) happen 800 miles inland? It will be at least six months, and maybe as much as year or more in some places to get power, water, roads, bridges and communications restored. It will be at least two years to restore power in many areas.
"In Chimney Rock, NC, there was a meeting this morning with FEMA. They plan to bull doze the entire town, bodies, and all. Some stuck in the trees there as well."
The Southeast should identify as 'Ukraine'...
