we're halfway down the mountain the reservoir is closer to the top and it was going to come down and then um
but we couldn't get out of our street because trees were down we had 17 minutes between
the alert that said evacuate mandatory evacuation evacuate now
and then shelter in place seek highest ground we had 17 minutes to leave and we couldn't
and there was nowhere to go so we had to stay we gotta think about getting out of here
walk around
all right this what is probably gonna end up being a really long video uh
is gonna start off just a little differently because there are people there are Americans right now
who are trapped in these flood-ridden areas of western north carolina eastern tennessee
that thousands of people are missing we don't even know we won't know for a while
like what's really going on how many people are alive or dead it's the stories that are coming
out right now are insane and i can't even wrap my mind around it i'm actually really pissed off but
before i get into all of that before we get into all of that people in these areas right now
are are without power they're without clean water they don't they don't have food
gas medicine supplies things like diapers they're they're they're stranded and they have nothing
and so i want to start off with just a couple of resources that might help people because there's
not a lot of information in central locations that people can access easily so i try to find
some stuff like that i want to put it up front for the people who who really need it
so the first thing that i found that i thought seemed very useful was up at citizens times they've
posted a an interactive citizens emergency map which has dots all over it and if you switch to
data view it tells you things like where you can go to get water where you can go to get food
emergency shelters that are open places where you can charge a cell phone or get wi-fi places
where you can get a free meal places where you can take a shower there's lists here has addresses
information about when that's happening and so that's like 17 pages of stuff that people have
provided here for people who are needing these resources and i will put that link first i'm
going to make a list of links i'm going to stick it in a pinned comment below it'll be the
top pin comment this is going to be the first link on it anybody you know that's in that
area that's that needs help you could send them this link because it's just so much information of
places where they can you know take a shower or charge their phone or get something to eat or get
water which everyone is desperate for right now or a meal so i'm going to put that link first
the second thing that i think everyone needs to see and it's pretty astounding there's a facebook
group and i wouldn't normally say hey go join facebook we were kicked off of facebook years ago
and i i don't recommend facebook and i never usually would but i am now for this reason only
there is a missing persons group that has been set up for eastern tennessee and western north
carolina due to the flood it was set up four days ago and it already has 66 000 members
there have been over 200 posts on here just today of people who are missing it's a place where you
can go and post a picture of your loved one or a name and information if you're trying to find
somebody that you haven't heard from that lives in these areas that have been affected by this
storm there have been 2100 posts just in the last four days on this group of people who are
missing it's it's insane thousands of people are missing right now that no one has heard from
they don't know if they're trapped they don't know if they're hurt they don't know what's going on
so that's one place you can go and join and and post a picture another place is this google
document that's been set up the hurricane helene people finder it's basically just a google
spreadsheet but they have a form here that you can fill out you can put the name of the
person you know where their last known location was of these states and any additional details like
their address or their license plate or any information you have about this person to try
and find them and then you can put your information so they can contact you and they're basically
just keeping up this color coded spreadsheet of people who are missing and that's in red
and people are found although there is one on this list that says deceased in yellow um
they're updating this all the time but there are over 2500 names on this list so again thousands of
people are missing so if you're missing somebody and you go to this facebook page and join it and
put that person and you go to this google spreadsheet and put their name you've now put that out there
in the two places that i found that have the most people concentrated together trying to help
each other locate they're missing friends and family members in this in this situation
we were not warned
devastation we're dealing with here jimmy rock's gone
flowering bridge's gone and
road's gone everything on the farm drowned couldn't get everything out
we managed to save one horse well leaving comments of oh i didn't they evacuate
i don't think you comprehend how quickly this happened and these areas have never flooded
like this before i don't think i've ever seen i've never never seen downtown balloon a boon flood
like this look at that we have one way in and one way out how we're supposed to flee if and when
that bridge goes it took our bridge it took our driveway the amount of bridges that are out the
amount of landlocked um stranded people is unbelievable guys with me that have done it
30 years and they've never seen anything like this it's been an incredibly apocalyptic weekend
for all of us here the news is not even coming close to catching the true devastation
there are bodies that are floating down the river babies they literally watched multiple
neighbors die one was hit by a tree others were washed away literally the house was floating
away with people in it um they they are in shock they are traumatized it's not enough
what what is being done is not enough there's still plenty of people completely unaccounted for
keep these these locals in your prayers the destruction and devastation caused by this
hurricane up in the mountainous areas of eastern tennessee and western north carolina is
it's beyond unprecedented they're they're actually saying this is a one thousand year
weather event but i think they're just slapping the number one thousand on there because they
they want to put a really big number because they've never seen anything like this before
we're looking at a one in a one thousand year rain event here these are areas where the roads
are very narrow in places mass exodus probably wouldn't even have been possible if they could
have done it in time and they didn't have a lot of time in a lot of areas this if you pull up on
this trying to get out you're not going this way and there might not be another road on the other
side to get you somewhere because you're going to get swept down a mountain i don't think you
can tell when people are criticizing that they don't really understand the geography of this
region you've got spotty reception service so if they're sending out emergency alerts people
aren't probably getting them and i've even seen meteorologists being quoted as saying the messaging
could have been stronger to warn people to get out but we have to cut everyone some slack because
what happened doesn't even make any sense okay that's that's the level we're talking about
and the problem with leaving that some people don't seem to realize at all is that the government
might prevent you from coming back but we'll get to that momentarily this hurricane helene came up
into here and dumped 40 trillion gallons of water in a very short amount of time into areas that
don't see water like that and the water just had nowhere to go and there are still mudslides
happening there's still flooding that has not receded yet it's just too much water it has
to go somewhere so you've got people like i said they're describing this as not just unprecedented
but apocalyptic there are depending on where you look they're reporting cbs news yesterday reported
131 deaths today the new york times is saying 183 in six states good morning america said the
death toll has now reached 200 they're not going to know for a long time how many people
have perished in this but thousands of people are missing so it rained for several days before
this area was hit so it was already rained on and then this thing came through and just dumped
insane amounts of water in some places 18 inches of water got dumped in 12 hours the highest number
i saw for one little town was 31.33 inches of rain in bucic so 31 inches of rain is unimaginable
i mean this is a kind of place where people plan for self-sufficiency they have had floods before
but not anything anything like this been known recorded modern american history and it's been
compared to the 1916 flood that happened in the area but that comparison is very that flood
pales in comparison to this actually and it was pretty serious too i mean the stories at the time
coming out about that flood are very harrowing stories you have just terrifying horrible
things like babies being pulled out of people's arms and stuff but that flood was 22 inches of
rain and total for the entire area was 80 deaths so we have more than doubled that number
already and again people are still trapped up in here like there's there's no way to know how
many people are missing they don't even have a good number right now i can not even tell you
how many families even here outside of charlotte that are looking for their loved ones up in that
area no one knows anything if you go to certain platforms there is picture after picture after
picture of people that are missing and lost and people looking for their family members
and it is not okay there's no coordinated central location where that information is going
that's the thing it's all done by citizens it's definitely not happening through our government
so anyway this is not the 1916 flood this is something else entirely that has happened here
i grew up here i lived here i mean 30 years basically so on and off and i've never seen
anything like it i've never seen devastation like this it's been flooded before but this is
completely insane it's during that winter going down rain it rained Wednesday Thursday
and she came fresh i mean everything she could move she moved
my car is gone it's okay everything's gone it isn't just bridges that are washed out or roads
that are washed away whole towns are are gone we've got upwards of almost a million people
still without power as of today just in North Carolina South Carolina and Georgia alone
and the stories that are coming out of people being trapped in areas where there's no running
water they can't obviously flush toilets you have elderly and disabled people who can't
get around very easily there are stories of children being found just abandoned in the woods
not abandoned but their parents are nowhere to be found something must have happened to their
parents because there's just children just in the woods and that's before you get into the
much darker stuff that the media isn't talking about how they're saying just a couple hundred
people on the news and social media he looked at me and just his face kind of head kind of drooped and
he started choking up i put my hand on the bathroom buddy
we're doing all we can do he said i've talked to people and they're pulling people out of houses
about an hour just that they couldn't get out the water took them in trapped them in then the silt
filled in they're there you go down through there and there's just houses with big x's on them
or check marks on them i don't know what the x's mean i don't want to know what the x's mean but
i'm hoping the check mark means that they're good that there that there's nobody in there that
mean it's horrible and so now we're going to get to a part of the video that is probably going to
pistol out of you off it really pisses me off i i find what i'm about to say to you very
unreal because it in the first sense anyway what i'm about to tell you doesn't make any sense
these people doing these rescue missions and saying you know don't fly drones around the area
don't um bring in donations that aren't approved a lot of people are getting turned away for their
donations and it's something is afoot here but this is the kind of stuff that's going on and
i'm seeing it all over the place the formal press conference or something from either president
biden or kamala harris i mean how do you not say anything for four days they've been stranded for
four days and this is the first we've heard from them at all fema is not on the ground there
do you have any faith in the federal response here no first of all you had a woman talking about
how tima the tennessee emergency management agency was telling people not to send donations
not to volunteer to come in to help people notification from tima i'm guessing that's
fema for tennessee i'm not exactly sure i think it's supposed to be the disaster relief people
but they were like do not donate your time we don't want your we don't want you to donate
time unless we ask for you and we don't want you to donate stuff to other people you need
to just donate money and stuff to us and get your instructions from us and listen to us what
and was telling people to just give cash donations which a lot of people are saying if you know what
that's about they put it into a fund it doesn't necessarily go where you think it's supposed to
so donate to our local churches because they will make sure that the people that are
needed will get it and people were saying this woman was making it up and it didn't sound true
but then i found the post from tima they did say that it's right there was floored yesterday
about how my community which is a little over an hour away from the affected areas showed up
at donation sites with water and diapers and formula and some liquid iv i mean y'all brought
all kind of things bleach vinegar you are ready to help and we're going to take more
donations today and we're so grateful for everything because i'm going to get it into the hands of
actual volunteers and i was asking people like why are you bringing it to me some of y'all don't
even know me and they said well we don't trust the relief organizations anymore y'all we have
lost our organizations to grifters we have lost our organizations to liars we pulled up to two
different locations we asked some sheriffs we asked um some other fire departments they're
all leading us to the command post which is fema they're not going to allow us to do anything
the people the people are trying to help the people and they're being turned away there are
even stories coming out that people are being threatened with arrest there was a civilian
helicopter pilot who was going in on his own accord and pulling people out because people were
writing to him to please come help them because he had posted on social media and he claimed
that he was threatened with arrest multiple phone calls i received like this voicemails text messages
and you could hear people desperate for help sit them spotted an older couple waiting for help
then landed in what's left of their driveway i originally left my son co-pilot on the side
of the mountain it was it was kind of unstable so i didn't want to put more weight in the
helicopter to lift back off so i left my son with the other victim and and i was just going
to take one person down at the time three minutes away sit them spotted a group of
rescuers just down the river he landed and found someone in charge told him my background
experience law enforcement uh firefighting uh pilot he immediately started helping with
coordination he he gave me radio frequencies to coordinate with them on um set up a landing
area for me to come back with the other victim and in the middle of the whole conversation
and and then blocking the road off i was greeted by the uh at that time i didn't know
but lake lure fire chief or assistant chief maybe and he shut down the whole operation
so at that point there was i felt like the conversation wasn't going any further
and again he asked me to leave and and i said hey i have no problem getting out of your
area if that's what you want us to do we'll leave no issue at that point i asked him
you know what was the reason i had to leave them there and and he said again you're
interfering with my operation i just need you to get out of the area i said sir i'm
i don't know where you were trained at but i know how my training is and i'm not going
to leave personnel behind i'm going back to get my co-pilot he said if you turn around
and go back up the mountain you're going to be arrested i said well sir i'm going back
to get my co-pilot i don't know what to tell you and he said i'm i'm letting you know
and at that point he waved for two law enforcement officers to come over and
told me that again if i go back up the mountain i would be arrested i had a
conversation with the female victim before i left apologizing and explaining
she she was standing there she heard the whole conversation
and um they were both very very surprised very upset the husband as i was
leaving off of the side of the mountain at that point separated from his wife
he was he was upset people who are going back into these properties that
to try to salvage whatever is left on their own property to get their own
stuff are being threatened with arrest it gave me instructions to come talk to you
guys that you guys over the garden ample amount of time that i don't know what
she told you i'm giving you guys a warning that's it just please back up
for me that's literally do you say you're trying to get our stuff i got you
i don't know what you guys been doing again this this is i did yeah that's
perfectly fine again i don't know what you guys been doing i'm just giving
you guys this morning that we're trying to get people so if i have to come
back out over here like i don't know like the jail is processing all right
that's it i'm not i'm that's the last so let me
so you're gonna take us to jail come here i'm not taking you to jail you're
gonna take you're threatening to take me to jail
for trying to get our stuff off our property
all right well one of these women in the room going out to
impact and if we need to get another off that
we want to look for an action then we'll be a look at them
you heard okay you heard no i heard so you can be upset all you want i'm giving
you guys a word i get it you guys i'm giving you guys a warning
that if they have to come back out here they probably have to ask
i guess they gotta escalate it then okay because we're trying to get our
shit we got governor de santis of florida who state got hit
sending extra stuff from florida florida we haven't handled
we got approved for the individual citizens things we've wanted
we have we have what we need uh i think most of the effort should be in western
north carolina right now and people are saying
the governor of florida is doing more for them in tennessee than their own
governor is and you also have rep mills out of florida
got five different locations that we're looking at today one location has five
elderly a couple of others have an eight-year-old and a mother that's he's
been flying stuff in he was on tv talking about where's fema
everybody's been asking where's fema where's the aid why aren't they here
why aren't they helping no actually the american people are the ones who are
leading the efforts and so it you can see now
that there is a tremendous amount of people that's just stepped up i've
heard from others who said that they haven't heard or seen fema
and there are allegations that people are being stopped
from actually being able to save people and that it doesn't make any sense
when i tell y'all i'm super frustrated at the moment is not a lot
for the past 48 hours i had planned to go to
east tennessee you know irwin newport and all that tomorrow
i i just and then i get a phone call and an email
or we're being told to stand down i've had emails where i've had a woman named
laura asked for help her brother got swept away they have a video of him being
swept away then she's just asking for help to get him
and yet we're being told to stand down heard from these two people
about how he went to take generators and supplies there and he was turned
down the water food stuff like that
turned down why you have people that really need things
and i get it it's such a disarray i understand this was all so fast
but at the end of the day man putting a halt to everything while there's people's
lives at stake that are sitting out there somewhere
that don't have anything that may be trapped may be hurt
and you're asking people to stand down that have the capabilities
to help somebody it doesn't make sense to me
there's even a soldier that's putting out videos
and it's almost like what she's saying is in a very obviously coded language
that anyone can get if you just listen to what she's actually saying
people are trying to figure out why we can't get there the only way
there is through air roads are destroyed there's landslides
most slides everywhere safest way and the only way we can get there is by
flight not that many helicopters like i think right now we have like 10 but
you gotta think how many people are missing and there's certain things i
cannot i can i cannot say just because but take that in
account there's a lot of people missing and it's day i think four or five
i have sleep that bridge i can't think but it's been a couple of days people
were without food and without water i think you can only go two days without
water and that is if you are healthy not if you're a child
not if you're an old lady or old person keep that in account where she says
i'm as frustrated as you are but we can only do what we've been
ordered to do they're not gonna let us go on foot they're not going to
i i don't know why they're just listen i'm literally learning and i'm
telling y'all or trying to tell y'all because i can't even tell y'all
everything people are asking why don't we use animals
or four rulers and stuff like that they have to approve a whatever
that they have to approve it before we're able to do it does that make any
sense if they don't approve it we cannot do it then again i know i sound
aggressive but i am frustrated with y'all if that makes any sense i'm
trying to level with you we're only doing what we're allowed to do and what
we're told to do we cannot do anything other than that
or the consequences will vary i understand that north carolina and
everywhere is upset with us i get it there's
there's nothing i can do there's literally nothing i can do and there's
a lot of people asking where the military helicopters are
where's all the response that's north carolina over there i'm in tennessee
the government really wanted to help dude there would be helicopters and
and you know military just everywhere there's none
there's none what is going on the only thing i need from this video is
helicopters if i have helicopters i can save lives yesterday when i was at the
astral airport refueling which by the way the
civilian is paying all this out of his own pocket he's not even looking for a
reimbursement i think we did four refuelings yesterday
and that was like just in half a day's work we're in astral and i saw two
air force helicopter 60s and i knew there were pj just
looking at them and i went up to him like hey guys like what are you all doing
and like this is what you need to be doing this is this is how i'm finding
people and they're like we can't go we're waiting on title 10 orders and i'm
like what they just they can't get any of 40
there's military helicopters all over here sitting on the ground
and they can't do nothing even my j-sot boys in feteville
they can't get orders to come out here it is just the most disgusting
thing and they're killing these people and i don't know why they're doing it
i don't know what kind of conspiracy i've heard so many things whatever you want
to come up with but they are literally allowing these people to
die in the mountains right now because we can't get helicopters
and it wasn't until october second october second
that biden finally approved a thousand soldiers i think
i mean keep in mind this area that's affected is the size of massachusetts
and he just now days after the fact
just now approved a thousand soldiers when the first
emergency declarations came down there was only 11 counties in that
a lot of people were outraged including me because there was such
devastation and in you know up to 90 counties
so we call the white house but basically all of the relief efforts
that have been going on have been by civilians civilian airplanes
civilian helicopters civilian rescue vehicles
civilian tractors and dozers and any kind of rescue
and relief has all been done by civilians on saturday i was able to get
into ashville i have a two-wheel drive vehicle i do not possess helicopters
or giant military bulldozers or bridge layers just a two-wheel drive vehicle
and i got into ashville it took me six hours i had to care
because i was going into help people i'm not quite sure how a government that has
the biggest military on the planet can't figure it out
i'm not quite sure why that same government that has
all the information gathering techniques that it has and satellites
is telling people there's still no way to get into the area they're not
going to let us go on foot they're not going to and i this is
extra pathetic what i'm about to say is extra extra pathetic
but and i never thought i'd be saying this ever like in the history of of time
but hurricane katrina i mean it has gone down in history is one of the worst responses
there were a lot of atrocities that happened in the responses there were a lot of things
that were being done that were absolutely not okay but one of the things that was done
is they were already calling out coast guard and positioning people before that hurricane
ever even got to the coast they already had military in position within days they had deployed
tens of thousands of guard and soldiers into that area there were 30 thousand national
guard troops deployed into that area for relief by september second ironically
the north carolina national guard was sent down there along with 3500 soldiers out of the
82nd airborne division of fort bragg in north carolina they went down to new orleans along with
30 helicopters there's military helicopters all over here sitting on the ground and they
can't do nothing which were prepared to deploy on short notice they had 24 000 troops on the
ground in louisiana and mississippi i actually did a little more digging and it's actually
even more troops than that article mentioned because they they sent people out from the army
the marines they sent out they they quoted a spokeswoman for the 82nd airborne who said that
at least 5000 from her division would be sent so it's even more in fact lieutenant general
steven blum chief of the national guard bureau was quoted as saying they would send 10 000 more
previously unplanned national guard bringing the total up to 40 000 so they sent 40 000 national
guard and many more army units marine units they the point i'm trying to make is they sent so
many military to assist after katrina to those areas newspapers like the miami herald
running headlines storm deployments prompt fears of strained forces as if they were sending so many
people because there's a war in the middle east going on at the time of this so that's how many
right that's how many were sent now why don't you compare that response to the response of
6500 national guard members and a thousand active duty troops why don't you compare that to the fact
that this storm hit that area friday september 27th it hit that area on sunday september 29th
north carolina governor ray cooper was quoted at a press conference as saying more than 500 north
carolina national guard members are now working alongside local emergency responders
conducting search and rescue missions delivering needed supplies and working to restore infrastructure
more than 500 north carolina national guard has increased to over 500 soldiers and airmen
and over 200 vehicles meanwhile right next door in tennessee which was also greatly impacted
they just sent more than 700 national guard to the middle east that their their own are
drowning and you deployed troops took a wait like what is going on see the problem here this is a
horrifying disaster it's now being called the second worst hurricane to hit since katrina
and they didn't just send them to the middle east they did it after the storm hit they deployed
on saturday this storm hit on friday this is shameful this is absolutely shameful they're
reporting now nearly a thousand active duty troops nearly a thousand i thought it was a thousand
are joining 6500 national guard members from 15 states 6500 so you've got maybe 7500 there were
25 000 guard and active duty already on standby before katrina ever hit land that was what was
being reported at the time and that's hurricane katrina which is again has gone down in history
is one of the most botched worst responses to a natural disaster that ever occurred but they did
that much they haven't done hard like what are they doing with this and if you're thinking it's
because new orleans had more people at the time there was under a million people in new orleans
in 2005 population western north carolina by contrast the 23 most commonly associated counties
in the 2020 census had it well over a million people so there's a lot of people just in western
north carolina alone and you have to remember eastern tennessee also very much affected south
carolina also affected georgia florida all these other places have also been affected but this
particular area where these people are still trapped in everything there's a huge amount of
people living in those areas it's just they're spread out in this mountainous area but there's
a lot of people there so this is 11 percent of north carolina's total population is living in that
area and biden just now october 2nd is saying he will approve a thousand troops so right after their
family members get put through this and they join the national guard probably i don't know i'm just
guessing to protect to step up and be able to protect their family and neighbors and friends
and communities and state if something like this were to happen now they're being sent on the other
side of the world i guess to protect foreign countries not obviously not their own people in
their own country which is not what the national guard by the way was created to do ever that is
supposed to be our militia that's not created to be sent overseas to fight foreign banker wars
in other places that is not what that is for and everybody knows it except for the people
who are running things in the most corrupt ways possible joe this is insanity
do you see the difference here something is not at all adding up here in any way like i said
there are literally people still in floods right now that cannot get out um there are people that
the people that did survive they are in shock they are traumatized they watch their family members
they watch their neighbors die we need help desperately and people are very angry so you're
just gonna give billions what's just given to ukraine but he can't help us here in north carolina
i'm proud to announce a new 2.4 billion dollar package of security systems are there any more
resources the federal government could be giving them no we've given them we have three plans
a significant amount of it they didn't know they didn't ask for it because it seems like this
government has resources for everywhere else on earth right now except for its own people
we have mayorkas now coming out saying fema doesn't have enough funds for the rest of
the hurricane season now quote we are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we
have we are expecting another hurricane hitting fema does not have the funds to make it
through the season and then right on cue because i guess they're letting her pretend to be the president
now kamala harris comes out yesterday and says people affected by this will get a 750 dollar
check and the federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has included fema
providing 750 dollars for folks who need immediate needs being met meanwhile i guess the people
in the hania are like where's my 50 bucks i mean this is 2024 money it's insulting it's insane what got
me fired up about this was yesterday me and my team did the rescue of that 11-day-year-old baby
all these government officials and social media they're showing that video that pictures and video
of that rescue and claiming that like they have some like government helped with that even
usa i think it was usa today wrote an article about it saying it was a florida national guard
that went and got it like with a helicopter no it was me my buddy charlie and a civilian named zeb
with his own personal helicopter at a Wilmington north carolina like without that civilian that
baby would be dead and the old lady we went rescued after that she'd be dead too because
she had one day left of oxygen let's recap not to read between this lady's lines or anything
but it's not like she's veiling what she's saying all that hard she's straight saying they can't go in
because they haven't been given the clearance to do so and everything in the military requires
orders first before you can just do anything you can't just active your own accord trying to
level with you you're only doing what we're allowed to do and what we're told to do we cannot
do anything other than that they're not gonna let us go on foot they're not going to i don't
know why they're just listen and then she's letting everyone know very specifically how many
days it takes for somebody to die without water it's been a couple of days people were without
food and without water i think you can only go two days without water and that is if you were
healthy not if you're a child not if you're an old lady or old person keep that in account
add that together this is very simple math she's laying out here add that together
with how many days after this thing happened it took for our president to finally sign off on an
order to send a thousand troops to activate a thousand troops and like whatever sixty five
hundred guard so you're telling me that for Hurricane Katrina they had coast guard preposition
they had 82nd airborne out there which is trained to deploy anywhere in the world within 18 hours to
make it anywhere on earth in less than a day it's right there in the state because it comes from
base in the state not letting them deploy military helicopters sitting all around on
the ground not letting them go up in the air for five days that's what we're saying right now
to an area geographically that has well over a million people in it and these counties have
been decimated some of them are still underwater there's mudslides still happening people are
trapped roads are gone bridges are gone and you're telling me i mean do this math just do
everyone do the math right now you can't really arrive at any other conclusion can you it's
horrible this is horrifying it really is it's really horrifying we know it's public we know all
the money that was just sent to Ukraine are you kidding me how much money is it going to take
to rebuild these mountains and there's there's no there's no amount of money that you can put
on these people's lives like what is going on i don't understand this is not incompetence
okay incompetence suggests that somebody's just too stupid i do not believe at this point
after everything that i have seen researching for this and watching hours of video of people
talking about what's going on and i i do not believe that it is physically or mentally
possible for any anyone to be this incompetent this is not incompetence this is something else
i posted something earlier today on x because i was trying to put together a list of of resources
that will actually if you donate and you want to help people out in the affected areas these resources
will actually get to people on the ground because there's a lot of fishy bullshit that's going on
i did post this and i asked people if if you've got a source that's actually a good
source that's helping people right now where the donation will make a difference please post
that basically because i want to give people you know good legitimate sources where if they
give them the money it's not just some bs that's going to go to like fees and and you know salaries
of people and things like that and not actually just go help people on the actual ground and
so these are the ones that people overwhelmingly said we're helping people and we're good and
the first one that everyone that that was mentioned by multiple people is samaritan's purse
which is a christian organization out of boon north carolina and they've been sending out trucks
filled with supplies disaster relief they've gone to florida they've gone to georgia they're
obviously helping in north carolina too and so they have a donation thing set up on their
website where people can give money there's also a place where people can sign up to volunteer
the second group that was mentioned consistently is the united cajun navy
that were mentioned multiple times this group is flying in there they're doing search and rescue
they're also transporting oxygen and insulin they're bringing starlings to hospitals
all kinds of stuff that they're doing and so they have a page set up here where you can
donate for that there's also grindstone ministries which was mentioned multiple times
there's a page set up for them to donate there's also the yall squad mentioned multiple times what
is going on guys kaleb beacham here operations director for the yall squad i'm currently back
in central iowa after delivering our first of possibly many loads down to eastern tennessee
and western north carolina um on that truck we had shovels rakes chainsaws brooms mops
toiletry is really anything you think we could need right after a disaster we brought it there's
also the 118th they've got people on the ground they're in multiple states they're doing stuff they
have a gifts and go that they've set up operation airdrop which is volunteer pilots that are flying
things into places where the roads have been washed out and then finally mountain mule packer ranch
was also mentioned they've got mules and they're loading equipment onto mules and walking it in
that way because again like i said can't get in there with the roads the way they are i
mean they're there's like in some areas there's only one road and it's iffy and so they're they're
trying to get supplies in there any way they can so those are the those are the main resources
that people mentioned if you want to donate to try to help out all right so i'm cutting in here
i'm going to go ahead and put this up as part one and this is going to be to be continued
because we have a whole other side of what's going on that you guys need to see but i need to go ahead
and get what i have up now so this information can get out i'm actually kind of getting swamped
over here we're both getting kind of swamped over here with stuff so i just want to go
ahead and put up what i have so far and then erin's been in the background researching a
whole other aspect an angle to this that i think is very important for everyone to consider
also there's a lot of conspiracies going around that i don't i think should be taken with a grain
of salt until receipts can be shown because there's some people making some pretty tall
claims without a whole lot of evidence and people are just taking it at face value and i'm
i'm really not sure that's helpful right now when you consider the levels of pain and heartbreak
and devastation that are on this ground we do not need to be making stuff up it's already
bad enough as it is so we have true stream media dot com up if people want to contact us to send
you know pictures video information whatever you you need we've got our contact information up
there my dms are open on x and i will put that whole list of links below and this is to be
continued i love you guys stay safe out there hug your loved ones because you just you really
you never know you just never know
