WATCH: West North Carolina Cries for Resources While FEMA Lets Them Languish on the Tarmac

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is begging for more money for FEMA, claiming that their Emergency Food and Shelter Program resources are almost drained and they don't have enough funds to make it through the hurricane season. As my colleagues Nick Arama and Brad Slager reported, it's kind of hard to respond immediately with money and resources for the American taxpayers devastated by Hurricane Helene when you spend it resettling and housing illegal aliens

WATCH:

There have been reports on social media that FEMA is indeed on the ground in the affected areas. They are also producing videos encouraging affected citizens to apply either by phone or online.

WATCH:

But riddle me this: How do people who have absolutely no access to phone, power, or internet accomplish this? This is one indication that someone at FEMA failed to think this through.

There have been claims that FEMA is restricting private citizens from rendering rescue, aid, and comfort to the ravaged towns and limiting emergency response to their approved agencies, and counter claims that this is not occurring. What appears to be confirmed is that whatever resources FEMA does have available are not being distributed. Aircraft, ambulances, fuel supply tankers, and trucks with supplies that are supposed to be for the Hurricane Helene victims are sitting on a tarmac in Greenville, SC, still waiting to deploy.

FEMA FAILURE IN THE SOUTHEAST  

I was just alerted by friends in Greenville, SC that there is a massive failure by FEMA to deploy assets to assist those impacted by Hurricane Helene and they are feeling beyond frustrated and angry. 

FEMA has 12 MEDVAC EC135 helicopters just sitting there in Greenville.  

FEMA has 3 C130 cargo planes just sitting there in Greenville.  

FEMA also has fuel tankers, ambulances and other equipment ready to deploy, sitting in Greenville, as seen in the videos attached. 

These planes, helicopters & other equipment have been sitting since Sunday and have not doing anything for Americans in need.

WATCH:

Our tax dollars not being utilized even though they are appropriated for specific situations of emergency just like this.

What the hell is going on? What exactly is FEMA doing besides promising a measly $750 to those affected by Helene??

This has been the question of the hour. That $750 is not going to be instantaneously given, and most of those affected don't even know about it. At this point, what the victims of Hurricane Helene would like is to know they are not alone and have access to food and clean water. Why is FEMA allowing these critical resources to sit on the tarmac in South Carolina when they are needed in Western North Carolina, East Tennessee, and parts of Georgia? 

Kremer is also asking those questions.

$941 million FEMA dollars have been given to illegals and now DHS Secretary Mayorkas is asking for more money for FEMA because there isn’t enough to help Americans?!  

What about these resources just sitting in Greenville? Why aren’t they being deployed?? 

People are dying and in desperate need of help. 

Fellow Americans aren’t even allowed to help because of red tape & money we’ve already paid in taxes isn’t going to help them either.  

The Biden-Harris Administration is MASSIVELY FAILING and it is clear American citizens are NOT a priority.

The reported death toll has almost reached 200, and many areas are still unaccounted for. FEMA will guarantee an increase in that number simply by their incompetence. It's a horror show and the federal government appears to only be making it worse
