The Biden-Harris Federal Response to Helene Is a Total Disaster

The Biden-Harris administration has yet again shown its complete inability to effectively manage disaster responses. From its appalling handling of the tragedy in Lahaina, Maui, to its blatant indifference toward the people of East Palestine, Ohio—and now the failure to properly aid the victims of Hurricane Helene, especially in Asheville, N.C.—the pattern is clear. Time and time again, we've witnessed an administration incapable of stepping up when it's needed most.

FEMA STILL has not authorized the Blue Tarp program for those of us with significant roof damage.

Was it requested by the states? I understand that it must be requested.

“FEMA STILL has not authorized the Blue Tarp program for those of us with significant roof damage.”

Amazon Prime probably can deliver tarps quickly [October 3rd].

Sheets of plywood can be used as super large shingles.

Insurance companies will probably reimburse insured homeowners.

The federal government should let Amazon and Walmart do their thing.

Plastic garbage bags can also be used as large shingles. If a large gap needs to be covered, such as is left by a fallen tree, they can be slipped over ropes or wires.

FEMA,,,, another address in swamp city to close, let stupid tend to itself, just my not so humble opinion
Brash you say?
We need to help these people. We consider this acts of God you say?
We must help all natural disaster victims some say?
Yes I suppose so to an extent?
Church, community, family in first or reversed order for assistance or dependance as required was and still is the best way to render aid in time of need.
Get us back to basics. Things not so whitleycut in my country any longer I
lament

The American Electorate, collectively, is one of the dumbest organisms on this earth. We also have the shortest memory.

I live south of Tampa.

Another county has sent in search and rescue help. I’ve been told that beachfront ground floor condos got flooded. That probably means almost all the beachfront hotels in my county of Sarasota have been put out of operation.

A few weeks ago we had another hurricane with very heavy rain. That flooded areas to the east of me.

The only federal constitution responsibility is the restoration of “post-roads”.

Tell me about it, I’m from New York city and you would *think* after 911 anyone who lives there would be militantly against an open border, but nope! Not only do these morons vote 90% democrat, they barely say anything when illegals flood into their city, take over their hotels, take over their social programs, commit violent crimes, take millions of their tax money and all the while for all they know these illegals could be terrorists planning to kill them all. The stupidity is unbelievable.
