I don’t know anything from the federal side, but I do know that locals would like people to stop playing hero and pulling heavy trailers full of things they’re already stocked with and ATV’s up busted up roads that they desperately need to not get busted up further.

frick Kamala and Pete.


No sir. You don’t get to insert that last sentence. That’s not how it works here.

If you state anything to the contrary of what someone we like on X says is happening, you are a full-fledged supporter of Kamala Harris and Pete Buttjug.

Because "exactly what you were referring to" is not happening according to FEMA


The progression follows the regular pattern of scripted MSM narratives:

1.) It is not happening.

2.) It is not happening but it would be a good thing if it happened.

3.) It is happening and it is good that it is happening.

No… what I was told from a first hand source who I am close with who works in LOCAL law enforcement, is that non locals are not being turned away from the area, but that he almost wishes that they would be because they’re causing traffic and their heavy trailers and trucks are busting up compromised roads that they desperately need. He doesn’t work for FEMA. He’s a life long local.

Stop twisting my words.

Just to clarify, after reading your comments above I assume they are made in good faith and I have no reason to think otherwise.

Yet my comments above are directed at many initial reports in the MSM about Elon Musk’s assertion that authorities were blocking supplies and aid from being delivered.

Many MSM straight-up said that Musk’s claim was false with NO caveats whatsoever.

that is where i draw my line in the sand. for many storms outside of NOLA in my past, i have loaded up trailers, even box trucks full of supplies and led donation drives for Hurricane Sandy. the Tuscaloosa Tonrado, the native tribes in Oklahoma, New Mexico, Hurricane Ike etc….

sometimes i have driven straight into the closest spots i can find and unload my truck or trailers at the best church i can find. Stopping and helping people i see in need etc.

i would be doing it right now in the Helene situation, but life isn’t cooperating at the moment, but that’s what i’ve always done and never even publicized it nor look for a pat on the back.

BUT IF ANYONE. including some inept Gov’t Entity tries to get in between me & my efforts to help felllow countrymen. women and child. that’s when i’ll push the needle and give some pushback.

Where is it their rights to stop one American from helping another American! I don’t care if they made up some law in hindsight to the constitution for “emergency response”.

What’s going on in HELENE COUNTRY is that they are starving and killing people that are trying to survive so they can swoop in on as much land as easy as possible with no descendants to kick back against the mining companies and Blackrock.

this must be stopped or we will all be enslaved by these evil pricks!

Get ready to stand and fight!

Rumors about FEMA turning away donations, stopping trucks or vehicles with donations, 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.
Word games.

e.g.,

Buttigeig says "No one is shutting down the airspace and FAA doesn’t block legitimate rescue and recovery flights."

Then Buttigeig says "There's also some safety issues. For example, temporary flight restrictions ..."

Folks like yourself regurgitate the former claim, while ignoring or being unaware of the latter.

FEMA also said the FAA "is not restricting access for recovery operations."
So FEMA lied.

If you believe a government site about misinformation and dispelling rumors, you are very gullible.
