Can we dig up the body of Gen. George S. Patton, resuscitate him and put him in charge of FEMA?
The local nightly news had a Fox reporterette on accusing people, especially Trump, of spreading lies and rumors about the great job FEMA was doing.
Throw the sign in woods when no one is around. People will figure things out when the pavement ends or at the first fallen tree
It’s looking like Dems want to keep Western NC in shambles, unable to vote.
Then vote for them.
Well, had they gotten past the sign, FEMA would have found slopes roofs, so they couldn’t have helped anyway.
That said I saw a NCDOT press release earlier today that stated the highway and roads to several towns including communities like Bat Cave was underway. My guess would be the less traffic the likely volunteers and DOT have to dodge the faster they can work.
A lot of people including ones who think for example US 441 across the Smoky Mountains is a truck route resulted in the road being closed nightly. They are also trying to use The Dragon.
Volunteers from all over the country are on scene and can do more left alone than having a DC LIB breathing down their backs saying you can't do this or that. It may not look pretty at first but they are the best hope for getting things functional so things can then be restored permanently. This is not an election issue this is an American issue.
Truly horrible.
I’m not expecting any sort of restored normality, soon. But a committed US gov’t *could* make a lot of headway in a month, if that was their focus.
States also need to break away from FEMA and establish or re-establish the system utilities have used for over 8 decades of mutual aid agreements. That is what utilities still do. They have this in place to survive overwhelming disasters. I saw utility trucks coming south on I/75 from up north before Helena even made landfall. My Dad would talk about his early years working as a lineman for Ma Bell and trips {convoys} to Nashville from Knoxville due to ice storms etc. No interstates back then it was late 1940's early 50's.
A lot of work is happening in hit states more than the media wants to show. It would be nice if the deployed to ME 700 2/278th ACR Tennessee National Guards were sent back home. Congress needs to fully fund enough active duty members aka End Troops Strengths so NG's were put back to handling state emergencies under their governors.
Hard to believe that the first response to this is some remark like:
“Kinda sounds like FEMA needs to get out of the way:”
ARE YOU KIDDING ME... I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO POSTED THAT BUT, FOR GOD’S SAKE....kinda sounds like FEMA needs to get out of the way
WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR US “COMSERVATIVES” TO GET ROARING, ANGRY,
You know, we will NEVER win...we just don’t have the stomach or the tenacity for it.
What a frikken WIMP country we have.
Well, had they gotten past the sign, FEMA would have found slopes roofs, so they couldn’t have helped anyway.
Sounds similar to the “sloped roof syndrome” that hampered the FBI in Butler.
The roads are closed evidently by DOT because the DOT and a contractor are rebuilding the highway to reconnect the communities. The more people driving in and getting stuck that they have to pull out, the longer it takes to get the road rebuilt.
FEMA Cutting off more supplies from NC
Would soneone on X please share this with Elon Musk.
If that info is true, what Deep State is doing needs to be stopped.
Wow.
A road was carved out in WNC by the West Virginia Coal Miners so the VOLUNTEERS could get supplies up to the people in Chimney Rock and beyond. FEMA came in and put up a big metal gate and told the volunteers they could no longer use that road. Someone tore down the gate so now…
From seven hours ago on X...

We gifted an @EmergencyRv to a Veteran and his 28 yo daughter with special needs today in Bat Cave, NC. @fema refused to cross a creek, two inches deep, to evaluate his property that was destroyed by a mudslide in #helene. FEMA told the Vet they “couldn’t get their tires wet.” Meanwhile, our Veteran and his daughter slept in the rain and used the bathroom in a bucket.
Not on our watch
@EmergencyRv
Help us. We have over 700 families, including families on our waiting list seeking shelter:

OMG is deep DEEP on what’s happening in North Carolina. I’m on the ground undercover personally. Stay tuned.
If you’re with FEMA you’re on notice.
