A week before Christmas, veteran NASCAR driver Greg Biffle is making headlines for the most tragic of reasons: He was killed, along with his wife and two children, in a private plane crash in western North Carolina, according to news reports.

But a little over a year ago, he was making headlines of a different kind: For heroism in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

According to WCNC-TV in Charlotte, North Carolina, Thursday’s fatal crash occurred about 10:15 a.m. near Statesville Regional Airport in Iredell County, north of Charlotte.

Terrible. Something went wrong right after takeoff, the flight pattern became erratic, elevation changes, etc. and a very tight turn was made trying to get landed where they had just taken off. Hit the ground before getting to the runway, ended up on the runway, then big fire. Lots of fuel, of course.

So, he was doing something for the victims of the hurricane in NC, something the federal government was not doing.

Helping households with Trump signs out front?

Wasn’t this the guy who flew his own chopper multiple times into the disaster zone offloading supplies while FEMA sat on their thumbs rotating?

Probably the same.
