This Administration is straight up evil. The must be confident AF about The Steal™ so much that they would pull this kind of shit weeks before the election.. We as Americans now have a duty to stand up to these tyrants.
I stand with the citizens. Fuck this admin, and fuck the police for going along with them.
Are you serious? Why the hell would they arrest people for helping out the hurricane victims? That's the most counter-productive thing I've ever heard!
I don't know; I haven't heard from them all. Have you? I have just seen one report on that, er, authoritative and educational site X. It wouldn't be propaganda would it?
They are posting all over social media...just search the keywords.
Why would hurricane victims that have had their entire lives washed away and loved ones dead...
Be lying about it? You have to provide some sort of believable reason for them to be doing so...attacking the sources is showing your ignorance of the situation.
I've been suspicious of FEMA ever since I heard about their "camps" after Hurricane Sandy. It's like, "Why would a federal emergency response agency be building camps shielded from the public eye to hold people for months, when they should be helping out with natural and man-made disasters?"
Oh no :( You know what that means. They'll find any excuse the seize the land. It's scary that some things haven't changed with our govt. since the days when they forced native Americans off their land just so they could dig for silver or drill for oil. I remember the Bundy Ranch incident from a few years ago too.
Lithium?
I wouldn't take anything that crackpot says seriously.
Take the start of this exchange for example - he thinks that not only was the hurricane deliberately manufactured, but that it was controlled afterwards.
So in other words, your "primary sources" are lies and deceptions and unless a victim agrees with those lies and deceptions than they're not a credible source. lol
No you monkey, the primary source is literally first-hand evidence of your claim. A witness being interviewed at the site describing what they saw, video footage, literally anything other than a second-hand account by some social-media looney. Unless you’re saying your sources of this would be lies and deception, which is basically your point. Smh
No, that’s just logic. You’re basically just saying “trust me bro”. Why should anyone trust you? If someone told you the moon was made of cheese would you just believe them? Lmfao
No, you have it backwards smooth brain, I’m saying YOU’RE refusing to provide them because you’re indirectly claiming they’re lying. Otherwise you’d just provide them. You’re also now admitting the “source” provided is establishment lies because it would contradict what a primary source would possibly say. Either way, you’re fucked. Way to say the quiet part out-loud. The burden of proof is on you.
As emergency relief agencies scramble to respond to the devastation wrought by Hurricane Helene, Donald Trump and his allies have pushed conspiracy theories about the federal response that officials have warned are hindering relief efforts.
“STOP this conspiracy theory junk that is floating all over Facebook and the internet about the floods,” North Carolina state Sen. Kevin Corbin, a Republican, wrote in a post on Facebook. “Example: FEMA is stealing money from donations, body bags ordered but government has denied, bodies not being buried, government is controlling the weather from Antarctica, government is trying to get lithium from WNC, stacks of bodies left at hospitals, and on and on and on ... It is just a distraction to people trying to do their job.”
The spread of misinformation about Helene has been staggering, in large part due to the Republican presidential nominee’s attempts to politicize the disaster. In the past week, Trump has falsely claimed that the Federal Emergency Management Agency has no money for disaster relief because its funds were spent on “illegal migrants,” and that Vice President Kamala Harris “stole” FEMA funds for undocumented immigrants to encourage them to vote for Democrats. He baselessly accused the administration of “going out of their way to not help people in Republican areas” — a move he himself was reported to have considered as president, due to the state’s Democratic leanings, after wildfires devastated California in 2018. Trump also claimed that President Joe Biden had not spoken to Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia, one of the hardest-hit states, an assertion that Kemp himself disputed.
Those lies have been amplified by the likes of billionaire Elon Musk, professional conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and the scandal-plagued GOP nominee for North Carolina governor, Mark Robinson. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., a staunch Trump ally, also alluded to a ludicrous conspiracy theory that Hurricane Helene was a man-made weather event — a claim rooted in antisemitic conspiracy theories, as my colleague Ja'han Jones has pointed out — in a purported attempt to influence the election against Republicans.
Disaster relief organizations and lawmakers from Trump’s own party are urging people to stop spreading unsubstantiated rumors about relief efforts. The American Red Cross issued a statement disputing false claims about its response, saying such misinformation “disrupts our ability to deliver critical aid and affects the disaster workers who have put their own lives on hold to assist those in need.” FEMA even resorted to launching a misinformation page on its website to debunk rumors about its Helene response.
The White House slammed the conspiracy theories about Helene recovery efforts in a memo on Friday, saying that Republicans are spreading “bald-faced lies” and using the tragedy “to lie and divide us.”
Interesting. So, what's the penalty? Life in Prison?
Obviously the gist of it is that they are trying to fake their own assistance to win the election, even though they wasted all of that money to bring cat eaters in the country so they could use cats as dinner.
Sounds like a big fat waste, and now we know for sure. It's even worse than when hurricane Maria revealed just how corrupt the people in charge of Puerto Rico were when it came to disaster relief.
