ThankQ SvD!!!

S#!t is getting intensely real;
NC State Police just told the feds (paraphrasing) F.A.F.O

Needs max pingout!!

The following MSN article at the link claims to fact check the 'rumor' about NC State Police arresting Feds blocking supply/rescue efforts. It's MSN, so there's that.

The article says there isn't a 'state police' in NC, but there is a NC Highway Patrol, and that they hadn't received such orders. Looks like MSM is identifying those on X.com whom they are going to target latter for 'false information' accusations. There are a few X posts at the link -X in the crosshairs? Excerpt below link:

 https://www.msn.com/en-in/lifestyle/smart-living/nc-state-police-to-arrest-fema-employees-hindering-rescue-operations-fact-checking-claims/ar-AA1rJ66e

Based on the analysis of social media posts, it seems that the claim originated from a post by Elon Musk, the tech billionaire who endorsed Trump earlier in August. Musk said in a post on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter, that FEMA hindering it from delivering Starlink terminals and supplies to the affected areas in North Carolina.

The article says there isn't a 'state police' in NC, but there is a NC Highway Patrol...

Isn't the highway patrol also called the state police, though?

And the beginning of every episode of the old series Highway Patrol, the announcer says this: "Whenever the laws of any state are broken, a duly authorized organization swings into action. It may be called the state troopers, militia, the rangers, or the highway patrol."

(I watch a few episodes every once in a while and took it that state troopers meant state police.)

Granted, the old HP series started 69 years ago (1955 to 1959), and I thought maybe the terminology had changed. But no!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_police#United_States

"In the United States, state police (also termed highway patrol, state patrol, or state highway patrol), or state troopers, are a police body unique to 49 of the U.S. states..."

Hawaii's the exception. Doesn't that mean North Carolina does have a state police, but they just call it the highway patrol?

For those interested, the whole HP series is on YouTube. Here's the first episode:

Sorry, I couldn’t verify the police action


Elon said he has approval to help. I'm not sure about the others.

though it looks like they're going to make Elon pay
