Five bodies were found in the New Deal area, and another on Claremont School Road. The speaker states that it looks like a nuclear bomb went off, with body parts found in the debris.

Following a devastating flood, communities in western North Carolina are struggling with the aftermath. Landslides destroyed homes, and 163 children in one school system are unaccounted for. The river has changed course, making roads impassable and creating a 40-foot deep cavern where roads once were. Initial federal aid focused on Asheville, but the most affected communities are isolated, requiring people to hike over mountains and ford rivers to reach assistance. Community members are opening their private land to create alternate routes. The National Guard arrived in the hardest-hit areas over a week after the storm, and their support has been limited. The reported death toll of 200 is believed to be a drastic undercount, potentially exceeding 400, due to communication issues and the extent of the damage.

I'm in Asheville, North Carolina, doing disaster security and search and rescue for dialysis patients. This is a war zone, but the military isn't here, unlike during Hurricane Katrina. The American people should be angry at the government's inaction. People are hurting and dying. I saw young children searching for their parents and brought them to a church. The military is being restrained by DOD executives. The government isn't helping us, so we must take care of ourselves. Towns are self-policing. We need water, food, and clothes. I'm grateful for my motel room but feel guilty. A man was arrested for dropping off food in the mountains because he was supposedly interfering with a government operation, but there are no operations happening. It's sickening how the government treats Americans, offering minimal aid after sending billions overseas. Mayorkas is a traitor.

People are encouraged to donate to help those affected in western Carolina, eastern Tennessee, Florida, and Georgia. Donations can be made to churches, local police departments, and sheriff's departments, many of which are collecting supplies. The speaker's department is sending supplies to the western part of the state. However, people are advised not to donate to FEMA because they are hindering relief efforts. According to the speaker, FEMA doesn't understand that Appalachian people are built differently and will not accept government officials telling them what to do. FEMA is playing a game of FAFO because free men don't ask for permission. The speaker urges everyone to donate and help those in need.

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.

People are reportedly trapped and in need of body bags, but the federal government is not collecting the bodies, leaving them to rot. Some people have allegedly been without food and water for six days. The 82nd National Guard has allegedly been told to stand down. The speaker urges viewers to share the message and resources and to put pressure on Washington to provide help.

At least 150 counties are in a total disaster zone from Northern Florida to parts of Tennessee and North Carolina. In North Carolina, over 1,000 deaths have been confirmed, with insufficient body bags available. The speaker estimates the total death toll will be around or above 2,000. People are still trapped in isolated, wiped-out towns in the hills of North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee. Terrain and weather conditions are key considerations for humanitarian disaster relief.

Freezing conditions and early snow are expected by the end of the month, and people are walking around with nothing.

The speaker believes we are approaching a time where actions will be for one side or the other, framing it as good versus evil.

Asheville and the area towards Hendersonville look bombed out. People are trapped in the Appalachian mountains since Hurricane Helene hit seven days ago, and the military can't help without the leader's approval. News isn't covering the extent of the damage in East Tennessee and Western North Carolina. Coastal states' hurricane damage differs because the ocean recedes, leaving structures. Here, people have nothing left. The situation in North Carolina is especially dire. The speaker claims the death toll will surpass Katrina's, as many off-grid residents, hikers, and homeless people in the mountains are unaccounted for. Bodies are washing up, and some North Carolina counties have already filled 1,000 body bags and need more. The speaker insists this disaster is unprecedented for the region, unlike anything they've experienced before, because they don't have an ocean that comes in and then sucks back out.

A flight of pediatric medical supplies was brought in and is going to North Asheville. Four FEMA representatives arrived on a private jet. Mission Hospital was told it will be the morgue center for body recovery. The Army Chinook helicopters are doing body recovery. FEMA stated they are too tied up at the border to send more representatives and will not be sending refrigerated trucks. The speaker claims to have overheard that the fatality numbers being reported should have a couple of zeros added to them. A private hospital and the army are taking over body recovery, and private individuals are flying in supplies. There were supplies for the Cajun Navy and ASPCA being sent by private individuals. The speaker asserts that FEMA is doing nothing.

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.

The speaker is at a donation center with a pavilion and many pallets of water. They are trying to figure out where they're going to be working with local firemen in the "bat area." They visited two locations and were directed to the FEMA command post, but they claim FEMA won't allow them to do anything besides directing traffic. They are at a standstill and may head towards Newport or Jonesboro. The speaker expresses shock at the devastation, noting one part of town is destroyed while the rest looks okay. They mention a wiped-out area across the river and a stranded hospital. They claim they are unable to get boots on the ground to start cleanup and may end up in a different town.

The speaker is in Chimney Rock, describing the devastation as apocalyptic and overwhelming. They state that some people in the area hadn't been checked on until day 22, found by people on horseback. The speaker describes a pervasive smell of death and walking over 20-30 feet of mud and muck. They mention a call for resources at Silverado's and the need to verify requests before distributing supplies due to limited resources. The terrain is treacherous, with roads dropping off into the river and power lines down. The speaker notes the protective nature of the local Appalachian people and their reluctance to have many outsiders around. They express horror that only a YouTuber has checked on them, given the extent of the devastation. The speaker says the situation is chilling.

My husband took supplies to North Carolina to assist an organization. A friend in Swannanoa said the actual death toll is much higher than reported. Thirty-six bodies were found in one embankment, and bodies are being found in trees. Looting has begun. The situation is worse than people realize. Prayers are requested for those affected and those helping. I will provide updates as I hear from Matt.

The speaker criticizes the government's response to Hurricane Helene in North Carolina and Tennessee, stating there has been no government aid.

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.
