FEMA is not providing adequate support; they seem more focused on their comfort than helping those in need. The local FEMA office closes early, making it hard for working people to access assistance.

American citizens are struggling to access aid for housing and food, while those here illegally receive immediate support from FEMA. The priority should be to assist American citizens first during emergencies. There should be fairness in how services are distributed. The inequity is evident when individuals who entered the country illegally receive benefits more easily than citizens seeking disaster relief. This situation fuels misinformation and perceptions of incompetence within FEMA. Despite claims that the agency prioritizes American citizens, the processes in place suggest otherwise, leading to frustration and a sense of failure in the agency's focus.

An individual with firefighting, rescue, swift water rescue training, and equipment operation experience wanted to help in the Asheville, North Carolina area.

The speaker emphasizes that these are still people's homes that could potentially be fixed.

The applicant says FEMA did not contact them for additional information or to assess the damage before denying the claim.

FEMA is present but hindering rescue missions. Federal employees are occupying hotel rooms while rescue personnel lack accommodation.

Many in our community have faced similar issues, with some losing everything and receiving little help. One woman described how she and her son hiked to safety, witnessing devastation along the way.

Kamala Harris turned FEMA into an illegal alien resettlement agency, which caused Americans in North Carolina to be left to die during a disaster. FEMA's manpower, dollars, resources, and mental energy were spent learning how to get illegal aliens into the country. Therefore, when disaster struck, FEMA was not ready, prepared, capable, or caring. The speaker claims that helicopters and military assistance were not sent to help American citizens, including babies and children. However, the speaker asserts that if the victims had been living in a foreign country like Haiti or Venezuela, Kamala Harris would have sent help immediately. The speaker describes this as a betrayal.

The speaker discusses their uncle's experience with FEMA after his home in St. Pete, Florida, was destroyed by a hurricane. FEMA offered him $2,600. The speaker researched FEMA and found that its 2024 budget was $37 billion, with additional funding requested before the hurricane. FEMA is authorized to grant individuals up to $42,500 for home loss and another $42,500 for incidentals, totaling $85,000. Looking into FEMA's 2023 spending, the speaker found that significant funds went to Arizona, Texas, New York City, New Mexico, and Chicago, areas identified as border or sanctuary cities. The speaker contrasts this with the relatively small amount offered to their uncle, an American citizen, and suggests this discrepancy is a widespread issue needing change.

Casey Webb from Swannanoa, North Carolina, states they lost everything and were denied FEMA assistance after an inspection on October 4th, despite providing receipts and pictures.

Webb will be in Asheville all day and invites people to connect and discuss the situation, calling the government's response "disgusting" and the worst failure they've witnessed.

A resident of Augusta, Georgia, recounts the aftermath of a storm and expresses frustration with the government's response, particularly Kamala Harris's message of immediate assistance. Despite Harris's suggestion to apply online for FEMA aid, many residents lack power and internet. The speaker applied to FEMA but was denied due to homeowner's insurance. The speaker criticizes the promised "$750 in immediate help," questioning its practicality given the extensive damage, including lost food and downed trees. They describe predatory contractors offering immediate tree removal services at high costs, such as $3,500 for crane rental plus hourly groundwork fees, requiring upfront payment with the promise of later insurance reimbursement. The speaker feels Harris's visit was insensitive and out of touch with the reality on the ground, where the scale of the devastation is overwhelming and immediate solutions are lacking.

They stress the importance of collective effort in rebuilding the city.

FEMA told the speaker they can't get them a phone. The speaker has no ID or way to pay for food or gas and is stuck sleeping in a leaking car, wearing the same clothes since a 30-foot wall of water pushed through to Lake Lewer.

The 911 operator said they were overwhelmed with calls and could only advise getting to higher ground.

Do not give supplies to FEMA for Hurricane Helene survivors. FEMA is not doing what they are supposed to be doing and doesn't care about people.

FEMA has been knocking on doors, not offering help, just asking what's going on.
