Nick Sortor has been providing starlink systems supplied by Elon Musk to first responders for days and Biden is literally taking credit for it.

Do your part to the stop the spread of rumors by doing three easy things
1. Find trusted sources of information.
2. Share information from trusted sources.
3. Discourage others from sharing information from unverified sources.
October 4, 2024
Rumor: FEMA distributes aid based on demographic characteristics.
Fact: FEMA provides assistance to survivors regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, English proficiency or economic status.
October 4, 2024
Rumor: FEMA is in the process of confiscating Helene survivor property. If I apply for disaster assistance and my land is deemed unlivable, my property will be seized.
Fact: FEMA cannot seize your property or land. Applying for disaster assistance does not grant FEMA or the federal government authority or ownership of your property or land. When you apply for disaster assistance a FEMA inspector may be sent to verify the damage on your home. This is one of many factors reviewed to determine what kind of disaster assistance you may be eligible for. If the results of the inspection deem your home uninhabitable, that information is only used to determine the amount of FEMA assistance you may receive to make your home safe, sanitary and functional.
October 4, 2024
Rumor: FEMA is no longer accepting applications for housing assistance.
Fact: FEMA is still accepting assistance applications throughout areas affected by Helene. For current application timelines, visit disasterassistance.gov. You can also see if applications are being accepted on FEMA’s state specific Helene disaster webpages; Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
October 4, 2024
Rumor:FEMA does not have enough money to provide disaster assistance for Helene.
Fact: FEMA has enough money right now for immediate response and recovery needs. If you were affected by Helene, do not hesitate to apply for disaster assistance as there is a variety of help available for different needs.
October 4, 2024
Rumor: FEMA is asking for cash donations and turning away volunteers.
Fact: This is false: FEMA does not ask for or generally accept any cash donations or volunteers for disaster response. We do encourage people who want to help to volunteer with or donate cash to reputable voluntary or charitable organizations. After a disaster, cash is often the best way to help as it provides the greatest flexibility for these reputable organizations working on the ground to purchase exactly what is needed.
If you encounter someone claiming to represent FEMA and asking for donations, be careful as that is likely a scam. Government employees will never solicit money.
October 3, 2024
Rumor: Funding for FEMA disaster response was diverted to support international efforts or border related issues.
Fact: This is false. No money is being diverted from disaster response needs. FEMA’s disaster response efforts and individual assistance is funded through the Disaster Relief Fund, which is a dedicated fund for disaster efforts. Disaster Relief Fund money has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.
October 3, 2024
Rumor: FEMA is confiscating donations for survivors.
Fact: Rumors about FEMA turning away donations, stopping trucks or vehicles with donations, confiscating and seizing supplies often spread after a disaster. These are all false.
FEMA does not take donations and/or food from survivors or voluntary organizations. Donations of food, water, or other goods are handled by voluntary agencies who specialize in storing, sorting, cleaning, and distributing donated items.
FEMA does not conduct vehicle stops or handle road closures with armed guards -- those are done by local law enforcement.
October 3, 2024
Rumor: FEMA will only provide $750 to disaster survivors to support their recovery.
Fact: This is false.
One type of assistance that is often approved quickly after you apply is Serious Needs Assistance, which is $750 to help pay for essential items like food, water, baby formula, breastfeeding supplies, medication and other emergency supplies. There are other forms of assistance that you may qualify to receive once you apply for disaster assistance. As your application continues to be reviewed, you may still receive additional forms of assistance for other needs such as support for temporary housing and home repair costs. Learn more about the types of assistance available. If you have questions about your disaster assistance application and what you qualify for, contact us at 1-800-621-3362 to speak with a FEMA representative.
OK, FR Fact-Checkers, have at it.
I find it interesting that they do not even attempt to disavow sending hundreds of millions of dollars to illegals in the USA. You'd think they'd want to deny that nasty rumor (but the facts are plainly out there). They need to learn how to lie like Harris, Biden, Hillary, Obama, et al.
I will tell you all what is really going on..Harris doesn’t give two sh*ts about the victims of this hurricane because the areas hardest hit vote for Donald Trump, they are red cities..so Harris sees this as win/win, hurt Trump supporters as much as possible, and also, if they cant fix things over there fast enough, guess what, they cant vote, which means Harris wins NC

I think we’re all on the same page, with ^ that ^, here ...
Send what you typed to everyone on your email lists.
I have been doing so ALL morning ... along with articles, tweets and photos.
“they can’t vote, which means Harris wins NC”
Bingo. Maybe the State of NC will take emergency actions to deploy ballots and ballot boxes to the good citizens. But I doubt that (and voting) is high on anybody’s priority list.
Don’t believe a word of it. All they need to do is declare ‘EMERGENCY’ and they will throw everything in the book OUT. They’re just like the LE down in NO during Katrina confiscating guns (later found, illegal).
The point is that although whatever they do might eventually be held illegal, they’ll double down and do it and not think twice about.
They are liars.
I heard a rumor that they were competent, and efficient...................
They’re lying about everything.
These are the same corrupt SOB’s running government who’ve robbed the tax payers of hundreds of billions to pay for tens of millions who illegally entered our country over the past 50 years. They’ve choked off our social services, schools, jails, prisons, jobs, housing, you name it.
Add in their bull shit globalist wars where we win nothing but death and country killing debt. This is why Trump will kick their asses next month and then watch...The Communist who’ve hijacked government at all levels, will attempt to crash the country.
I dont have an email list here but Ive been tweeting the same message all day on twitter, I know its called X but Im used to calling it twitter LOL..I just read a tweet from a woman who was delivering baby goods to pregnancy centers in Asheville and FEMA “DENIED” them the right to bring in supplies, baby formula, etc..this is downright DISGRACEFUL
I would say FEMA is putting out disinformation. I trust the word of the people on the ground there.
Comcast/NBC circulating similar snake oil & BS
Just pure evil ... no other word to describe this minions and what they’re doing.
I’d love to share that ... if you have a tweet link, please post or PM.
Any related tweets/links, anytime, as well.
Thank you!
We need to make this $#!t viral!!!
Rumor is FEMA is helping people… Don’t believe it!
EFFIN RED COMMUNIST POS!!!! Elon Musk just reported FEMA or the Red communist government is stopping them from delivering his communication starlink in those devastated areas. They’re stopping them do you understand this government is taking away their equipment from Elon Musk workers from doing their job and helping people from probably death. They might be on the brink of death and needs to communicate to the outside world etc. etc. those bastards red communist government is stopping them! I am pissed beyond anything I have ever felt!!!! EFFIN FEMA!! The government just pulled the pin out of the grenade!
“They’ve choked off our social services, schools, jails, prisons, jobs, housing, you name it.” AND our American culture. Most of the invaders have no intention of becoming Americans and adopting American culture.
FEMA does not take donations and/or food from survivors or voluntary organizations.
They left out "authorized" before the "voluntary organizations" part.
Too many reports of them seizing supplies from non-"authorized" volunteers.
I saw FEMA take credit for a rescue that I’d read about an hour earlier (with details) done by a private group.
I’ve watched video of helicopters on army bases remaining grounded and listened to victims wondering why they haven’t been deployed.
I’ve also watched video of arrogant “officials” telling volunteers they aren’t allowed to go into areas and rescue people.
The FEMA rumor response site is nothing but gas-lighting the public into thinking FEMA is doing things they aren’t doing (or aren’t doing things they ARE doing).

@cgcarf
We had 5 teams to Asheville today. The private plane delivering baby items to remote pregnancy center was told if they unload all goods would be confiscated by FEMA
FEMA presence in Ashville NC - https://x.com/glennbeck/status/1842293685834416174 (rep Corey Mills and Glenn Beck)
Hint; not the hardest hit area. Single ambulance style vehicle. Spent a day getting comms up. Seemingly there only to register people(”get people into the system” was said repeatedly)
Corey Mills and Glenn Beck are working in an area that no longer has roads.
FEMA is just there to get people on the fedgov teat.
