Maybe. Depends on who is really in charge. Also depends on politics. Our govt sends $Billions to Ukraine that could have been held back to help our American neighbors in this crisis. But I guess the dims deem it to be more important to launder money through Ukraine then to help American citizens.

This may be another E. Palestine event. Sucks to be you out there in flyover country.

Asheville is a liberal town. You would think the Biden Administration would pay more attention if this is based on politics.

Brandon WH: Time to sell global warming again, and the notion that only we can protect them from it. Train derailments aren’t helpful for that agenda, so East Palestine gets treated like crap. But hurricanes, now that we can do something with. Start feeling the peasants’ pain.

I’m driving I-77S in Virginia and just about to cross into NC.

Fast food places are unable to process credit cards—only take cash—a few gas stations are closed.

My Super-8 motel, Hillsville, VA, has no TV service, and offered no refund. (I don’t watch TV anyway, but it’d be appreciated by those of us who are spammed daily by Hyatt Corporate properties).

:-/

A FReeper who just left the YT video of a raging NC river (not in Pakistan or India), please put it here...

I’ll look for it...

Can we blame all this on Biden like the left blamed Bush for Katrina? If not, why not?

To be fair, it’s not govt’s to ‘give’, foreign OR domestic (&, I say this as a Floridian).

People can donate as they wish. We’ve all seen/know just how ‘efficient’ FEMA+ can be *rolls eyes*

Though, hard to stop these once-in-a-century occurrences too

My friend in Atlanta had a lot of rain and some wind.
My friend in Tenessee mountians sent me before/after pictures of state roads and cars and structures gone and replaced by dirt and fallen trees. No exageration, I saw the photos.

I finally found this video again. My heart goes out to all those affected by Helene.

You never, ever would want to 'be there', as millions have been. I'm fearless, and this scares me.
