While FEMA Fumbles The Ball, Patriots Are Working Together To Save Countless Lives In North Carolina
What we are witnessing in the mountains of North Carolina says a lot about where we are as a nation. The federal response to Hurricane Helene has been absolutely abysmal, and hardly anyone is really surprised by this because the federal government can’t seem to do anything right these days. But the good news is that help is getting to the people that need it. That help is being provided by teams of patriots that are working around the clock to get food, generators and supplies where they need to be. In many cases, life-saving assistance is arriving just in time. I don’t even want to think about what would have happened if everyone had just sat back and waited for the federal government to come riding to the rescue.
According to the New York Post, a massive rescue and supply operation that has enlisted the help of “hundreds of special operations personnel” is being run out of a Harley-Davidson dealership…
Hundreds of special operations personnel in North Carolina have formed their own homegrown rescue and supply operation in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene after they grew tired of waiting for the federal government to get its act together.
The Post found an all-volunteer operation being run out of a Harley-Davidson dealership with ruthless efficiency and military precision.
“Who’s FEMA?” ex-Green Beret Adam Smith derisively responded when asked about the agency’s presence on the ground since the deadly storm ravaged the rural western part of the state.
When is the last time that you saw the phrases “ruthless efficiency” and “military precision” used to describe an operation being run by the federal government?
While FEMA fumbles the ball, these men are stepping up and getting the job done.
It is being reported that they have put together a fleet of 35 helicopters…
This Harley-Davidson dealership has become a forward operating base, complete with a fleet of 35 helicopters that have flown hundreds of rescue, reconnaissance and resupply sorties.
Organizers were calling the effort the “Savage Freedoms Relief Operation,” but Smith says they’ve proudly adopted an alternate moniker — “the Redneck Air Force.”
The dealership teems with current and former soldiers decked out in camo pants and army boots with handguns strapped to their chests and hips. Crop duster pilots, helicopter tour guides and special operations pilots — most of them off-duty or retired military — have answered the call from Smith and others in North Carolina’s extensive military community.
I was so encouraged to hear about what they are doing.
Of course they aren’t the only ones that have stepped up to the plate.
Dr. Phil McGraw says that Samaritan’s Purse is doing an absolutely amazing job of getting desperately needed aid to victims of the storm…
Dr. Phil McGraw praised the work that Franklin Graham’s relief organization Samaritan’s Purse is doing to help the victims of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina.
It is putting the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s work to shame.
“Let me tell you, these [Samaritan’s Purse] guys don’t have meetings to fill out forms to plan a meeting to get something going. They have verbs in their sentences. They have springs in their step, and they’re out making things happen,” McGraw said.
“FEMA, all these other people are talking, thinking. No, not Samaritan’s Purse. They’re out doing things,” he added.
A video of Dr. Phil discussing what Samaritan’s Purse has been doing has been getting a lot of attention.
Over the years, Samaritan’s Purse has helped millions of people all over the globe when disaster has struck, and once again they are showing why they are so highly regarded.
Why can’t our federal government be more like Samaritan’s Purse?
According to one patriot that is involved in private relief efforts in a very remote part of North Carolina, the only government donation that has shown up in his area so far are pallets of electric chainsaws…
We are on the mountaintop in Little Switzerland collecting airlifted donations and distributing them to homes that have no power or are inaccessible. The community is self organizing incredibly well
This is the only federal government response I’ve seen so far. Almost all the pallets we have received are donations coming in from citizens and orgs.
Feds usually don’t come this far up into the mountains
This has been the government donation: pallets of electric chainsaws to communities that have no power
There are a lot of homes and communities that still don’t have power, cell service, or water. There are teams going out to these communities, and are still finding people who haven’t yet made contact since the storm.
Our little project involves receiving airlifted donations and distributing them both to the ATV teams, as well as directly to houses we can access via road.
The electric chainsaws would help if there was actually power in the region.
But for communities that have no power, electric chainsaws are essentially worthless right now.
FEMA gets a ton of funding, but I don’t know what they are doing with it.
According to the New York Times, only 1,217 FEMA employees are “available to respond to Hurricane Milton and other disasters as of Monday”…
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is currently stretched thin on manpower even as an incoming category 5 hurricane moves toward the U.S.
Just 1,217 FEMA workers, which is less than 10% of their personnel, were available to respond to Hurricane Milton and other disasters as of Monday, according to The New York Times.
It appears that Hurricane Milton could be one of the most destructive hurricanes in the entire history of our nation.
Will the federal response to Hurricane Milton be as pathetic as the federal response to Hurricane Helene was?
I have been watching so many videos that have absolutely horrified me.
There have even been instances where the feds appear to be doing far more harm than good.
In one case, a mysterious helicopter was actually “caught on video destroying a volunteer donation site for hurricane victims”…
An unmarked military-style helicopter was caught on video destroying a volunteer donation site for hurricane victims in Burnsville, North Carolina on Sunday.
The helicopter was seen swooping in low over the distribution staging area and performing a “rotor-wash” maneuver that used the powerful downward gust forces to blow away supplies and canopy tents.
One of the individuals who recorded the incident claimed the area was established as a “no fly no drop” zone, and claimed the “ghost” helicopter pilots wore masks, suggesting they were special forces or government contractors.
“They could clearly see the supply setup, blue tents etc and see this was NOT a clear landing zone,” they captioned in the video.
In the old days, our government could be counted on to exhibit at least a minimal level of competence.
Sadly, those days are long gone.
When everything hits the fan, don’t count on the government to save you.
During the very difficult times that are approaching, local communities will have to be united and we are all going to have to learn to work together, because there is no other option.
