A message from the Sheriff Wright and Sheriff Ellenburg in North Carolina regarding FEMA and the aftermath Hurricane Helen- we spent the day in Chimney Rock and Lake Lure and the devastation is unbelievable- but the people of NC have pulled together - truly amazing mountain people.

I don’t use X at all. Can you provide the gist of what he said about FEMA?

I get it that he can’t be outright insulting to them due to retribution, but aside from praising the locals carrying the literal load (which is *ALL* I saw when I delivered supplies last Wednesday) what did he say?

Two sheriffs on camera, telling it like it is on the ground in Chimney Rock. Basic message to FEMA: “stay the hell out of our way.”

Told anyone thinking of looting - if you try, you’re not gonna like us much. So don’t even show up in the county. Told Commie-la to take the $750 and send it to Ukraine, that’s where she wants it to go anyway.

That Post article (a good one) has a pic of a Chinook. Great heavy lift helicopter but it demands a lot of fuel.

Pretty cool these SOCOM vets could corral one and keep it flying.

These SOCOM vets are intelligent, skilled and very capable of OPS on active duty and in later life, like this venture.

If you don’t want to do X you can probably see the video on youtube tonight. Search there for Sarah Carter. You should check the video. Also, I think they are going to be on Sean Hannity tonight. The sherrif is great - soft spoken with a loud message and a bit of chewing tobacco thrown in.

You don’t need an X account to watch. Pretty straight forward. Told Kamala to send the $750 to Ukraine since that’s what she wants and thanked Elon for satellite coverage.
