The speaker praises the locals who are actively helping those in need and urges viewers to share the message that the truth is being withheld. They mention being in Maui and offer to provide updates on the situation.

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. The situation feels disrespectful, as if the government views its own citizens as less important than others. There's frustration over the disparity in treatment, with immigrants receiving better accommodations while locals struggle in campers. This reflects a deeper issue of neglect towards the community.

Lauren, a Black Mountain resident, describes the devastation in Swannanoa after Hurricane Helene and questions the lack of government assistance. Despite paying taxes since age 14, she feels $750 is insufficient aid. She notes the area doesn't typically require flood insurance due to its high elevation. Lauren highlights the absence of the military in the relief efforts, contrasting it with the presence of World Central Kitchen. Ten days post-storm, many are still missing and lack communication and water. She claims the news reports 300 deaths, but asserts that around 2,000 unidentified bodies are in bags, recovered by neighbors. Military personnel require personal leave to volunteer. Lauren expresses anger and frustration, emphasizing the community's reliance on volunteers and donations for basic needs. She says 30% of Swannanoa residents are still unaccounted for. Cadaver dogs, like Cholula from Ohio, are assisting, but not through government efforts. She hopes Florida receives better support during its impending hurricane.

People are reportedly being rejected by FEMA for aid, even after losing their homes and cars. The speaker expresses anger, stating that FEMA's aid is minimal anyway. They believe that those in power are worthless and don't care about the people. The speaker asserts that people must help themselves and each other. They call for unity and action to assist those affected and advocate for a reset. The speaker asks who agrees with them and who is ready to take action.

The speaker describes a scene resembling a war zone with entire parking lots destroyed, houses filled with mud, and hundreds of cars piled in trees. They criticize the government's response, claiming the news underreports the devastation and that FEMA lacks sufficient funds. They recount delivering donations and learning from a local that many people are trapped and dying in their homes. Bridges are wiped out, and roads are inaccessible due to landslides, making access nearly impossible. The only hope for those trapped is the National Guard and helicopters. The speaker witnessed numerous private helicopters, including retired Coast Guard helicopters, rapidly deploying supplies with no government planes in sight. They express heartbreak at the scale of the destruction, stating the town is gone and recovery will take at least a decade. Despite exhaustion, they plan to continue delivering supplies and implore others to donate.

We moved our vehicles as the floodwaters rose quickly. By the time we got out, the water was waist-deep, and we lost everything. My father and mother were trapped in their home as the flood lifted it and crashed it into our barn. We've been struggling with insurance and FEMA for assistance, but the process has been frustrating. 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. Despite the challenges, we are grateful to be alive and are determined to rebuild, relying on support from fellow citizens rather than government aid.

We're witnessing the devastation post-hurricane, 50 days later, and many are still waiting for FEMA assistance. Residents report minimal help from FEMA, with some relying on private donations for rebuilding efforts. One homeowner, facing eviction from a hotel, plans to live in a tent with her children. Volunteers, not FEMA, are assisting with cleanup and repairs, highlighting a lack of government support. The community is struggling financially, with many feeling abandoned by officials. There are reports of human remains being found in the area, raising concerns about the aftermath of the disaster. Local authorities have not responded to inquiries, leaving residents frustrated and in need of help. The situation underscores the importance of being prepared for emergencies, as many are left without essential support.

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.

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. The denial letter was allegedly postdated for October 5th. Webb claims to have not received a $750 check. FEMA's suggested temporary housing in Newport, Tennessee, flooded after 500 people were sent there. 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.

Kamala Harris and the Democratic party are not wanted in North Carolina. Undocumented immigrants are allegedly given more rights than Americans, including thousands in food stamps. Harris is supposedly giving people in the mountains $750. Those who choose to stay and rebuild after the hurricane need government assistance, food stamps, and bi-weekly checks. Some people are allegedly slashing tires to prevent aid from being delivered. The speaker questions when the hurricane became political, noting the destruction and a perceived lack of care from those in office. Law enforcement and first responders should allegedly allow people to help, as private helicopters are providing more aid than the army. The speaker expresses outrage at the thought of losing everything in the hurricane.

We're witnessing the aftermath of the hurricane 50 days later. Many residents express frustration over the lack of FEMA assistance. One homeowner, facing eviction from a hotel, is preparing to live in a tent with her children. Volunteers are helping with cleanup, but they rely on private donations, not government support. The community is still reeling from the storm's devastation, with reports of missing individuals and ongoing health hazards from sewage leaks. Residents feel abandoned by the government, questioning where the promised aid is. Amidst the chaos, volunteers are working tirelessly to assist those affected, but the bureaucratic response has been inadequate.

A North Carolina resident says that after Hurricane Helene, Asheville was "totally wiped out," and residents have not received FEMA's promised $750 relief. The speaker questions why funds are going to Ukraine and Israel while the local homeless population remains large and roads are in disrepair. Speaker 1 confirms visiting western North Carolina after the hurricane and witnessing the aftermath, including homeless people lacking necessities and unrecovered bodies. The speaker claims that when a similar question was posed to the White House press secretary, the response was that the question was disinformation. The speaker accuses the government of prioritizing other interests over Americans and labels the response a characteristic of dictatorships, where criticism is equated to treason. The speaker emphasizes the importance of free speech and holding the government accountable.

The speakers express distress over the devastating impact of recent flooding on their community, focusing on the plight of Meghan and Todd, owners of Atomic Furnishings, who lost their store, house, and car. Despite being featured on a Magnolia show and having a well-known business, they were denied FEMA assistance, car insurance, home insurance, and business insurance. The speakers highlight the inadequacy of government and insurance support, contrasting it with the help received from regular people through a GoFundMe campaign. They emphasize the widespread confusion and frustration with the FEMA application process, even for competent individuals like Meghan. The speakers urge viewers not to politicize the situation but to remember and support the affected community, including the artisans and employees displaced by the disaster. They stress the importance of collective effort in rebuilding the city.

A person in Western North Carolina reports rescue choppers are still flying overhead on day 6. They feel survivor's guilt because their town was spared, but a nearby town was completely wiped out, with everyone killed. The speaker claims the media is lying and people are being threatened with arrest if they try to help. They express disbelief that the government is preventing people from saving each other. The situation is described as beyond a nightmare, with bodies everywhere, possibly including displaced caskets from flooded cemeteries. The speaker asserts the only people providing aid are the survivors themselves. They express anger towards the government's response to the disaster.

A caller from Tampa describes experiencing heavy wind and light rain from the hurricane, expressing fear and frustration. He believes the government, regardless of party, is failing its citizens. He claims that while immigrants and Ukraine receive assistance, people are being denied FEMA applications and struggling with high costs. He says many couldn't afford to evacuate and feels the government doesn't care about American people, but rather about money. He looks forward to divine intervention. He urges those in affected areas like Countryside, West Tampa, and St. Pete to evacuate north. The hosts express empathy, emphasizing the caller's real-life experience and the disconnect between politicians and everyday working-class people who feel abandoned and just want to survive.

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 speaker's house washed away, and they lost their cat and two geckos. It was a miracle they made it. When the speaker called 911, they were told to get to higher ground as the waters came into the house. The 911 operator said they were overwhelmed with calls and could only advise getting to higher ground.

The speaker claims that while almost $300 billion has gone to Ukraine, people affected by the worst hurricane are being offered only $750 for immediate needs. They assert that North Carolina is a disaster due to a lack of people helping with hurricane recovery, while Georgia is doing a very good job. The speaker says they saw virtually nobody helping in North Carolina and recounts seeing a man whose house was gone sitting on a rock. They believe this man needs monetary help. The speaker mentions that Virginia, Alabama, and South Carolina were also hit hard. Despite President Biden's claim that the response has been robust and well-coordinated, the speaker says nobody agrees with that assessment and that Biden and Vice President Harris should be present and not at fundraisers.

The speaker expresses gratitude for the support received from the community, which has been crucial for their family's survival. However, they feel let down by the government's assistance of only $700, considering the high cost of living in Hawaii. They question why their community is being ignored and why aid is being delayed for families in need. The speaker highlights the difficulties faced by elderly individuals who are not computer literate and struggle to access help through FEMA. They request the president to visit and witness the dire conditions at War Memorial Stadium. The interviewer acknowledges the speaker's struggles and thanks them for sharing their story, assuring them that the president will be visiting next week.

FEMA denied assistance to families affected by a mudslide and house flooding. An elderly man's truck, his only vehicle, was buried in mud. FEMA turned down everyone in the area, providing no assistance. The government is not there for the people.

FEMA is allegedly halting search and rescue efforts because people are angry about receiving limited aid after their homes were destroyed. The speaker claims FEMA is willing to spend billions on foreign wars and undocumented immigrants, but not on its own citizens. The speaker expresses outrage that people are being told not to "stir the pot" when they are being taken advantage of. The speaker advocates rebelling against FEMA and what they call "pay for force."

Following a Fox News interview, the speakers report widespread frustration regarding the lack of federal assistance after a disaster. Small businesses are allegedly caught between the Small Business Administration and FEMA, facing rejection from both and struggling to pay workers without tourist income. Locals are also reportedly being denied FEMA aid for expenses like generators and chainsaws, despite having submitted receipts. The speakers contrast this with COVID relief, where money was distributed without extensive applications. They express anger that neighbors and volunteers are the primary source of help, questioning why tax dollars aren't providing adequate disaster relief. FEMA's $20 billion budget is questioned, as neighbors are the ones clearing roads and removing trees. They claim Samaritan's Purse, not FEMA, aided a friend, and that FEMA is behind on flood zone mapping. The disaster's impact extends beyond river areas and Asheville, affecting people two hours away. World Central Kitchen is reportedly staying longer than in any other US city due to the lack of infrastructure and clean water. They urge disaster relief organizations to provide assistance, including dump trucks and chainsaws.

I'm in Asheville, North Carolina, doing disaster security and search and rescue for dialysis patients. This is a war zone, but unlike Hurricane Katrina, the military isn't here. The speaker is angry because the government isn't helping despite the destruction and lack of news coverage. Children are orphaned and people are dying. The military is being "hamstrung" by DOD executives. Towns are self-policing, and locals are welcoming help. The area needs water, food, and clothes. A man was arrested for delivering food via helicopter for interfering with a nonexistent government operation. The speaker is disgusted by the government's treatment of Americans, especially compared to foreign aid. They call politicians traitors.

There is no water or food here. All the stores have been looted. People are desperate. I was in a shelter and we didn't receive anything, not even a blanket. There are elderly people and many dead. The president's claim of only 40 deaths is false, there are many more who couldn't leave their homes. The wind was terrible, destroying everything. There is no army, no civil protection, no one to help. Our president is absent. There is looting, no gasoline, no transportation. People are walking the streets with no assistance. I experienced this firsthand. Please don't give the government the food, they should come to people's homes and deliver it themselves.

The speaker criticizes the government's response to Hurricane Helene in North Carolina and Tennessee, stating there has been no government aid. Entire towns are inaccessible due to mudslides and downed power lines, with doctors walking to reach people. Civilians are digging out mudslides by hand, and there is no power or water. The government is allegedly threatening to arrest people delivering supplies via helicopter. Meanwhile, civilians are organizing aid, with one man in Burnsville, North Carolina, named Warren, going door-to-door to check on people and posting a list of names on Facebook. His wife is making food. The speaker claims Joe Biden said the government is doing all it can for North Carolina, while Kamala Harris is holding a fundraiser for her campaign in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
