This is a little bit unusual, and I don’t generally recommend going to a bizarro leftist narrative article for full review; however, in this case it is worth it.
Politico has written an article about FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, saying disinformation about the federal government response to Hurricane Helene, “is absolutely the worst I have ever seen,” Criswell told reporters on a Tuesday morning call. “It’s creating distrust in the federal government, but also the state government, and we have so many first responders that have been working to go out and help these communities,” she added. {link}
However, if you go read the article fraught with pearl-clutching and protestation, you might curiously discover there is not a single citation for any claimed “disinformation.” {SEE HERE} It is very odd to see FEMA and by extension Politico in their defense, claiming that massive disinformation is running rampant, and yet they do not cite a single example of the disinformation they claim to exist. Seriously, no joke – GO LOOK.
If you are an intellectually honest observer of government, you are left with the question: where is this disinformation you speak of?
Most of the shared examples of FEMA’s failures have been with full citation, presented with factual information – raw source attribution and audio/visuals of FEMA officials on the ground in Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina to bolster the claims. In short, all the claims against FEMA are specifically cited; however, all of the deflective justifications and denials are not.
Perhaps this is simply the state of current federal government. Whereby, thousands of individual citizens are giving real-time examples of what FEMA is doing and not doing, while FEMA (from DC) claims all of the citations and examples are “disinformation.”
It is all very Orwellian, and reminds me of something:
“Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?
The Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.
Alice: I don’t much care where.
The Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn’t much matter which way you go.
Alice: …So long as I get somewhere.
The Cheshire Cat: Oh, you’re sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
.
Put another way, the people on the ground are telling the truth about the current state of affairs. The interests of FEMA are antithetical to the truth, so they label the truth “disinformation.” And that’s that.
After a fund raiser for hopefully our next governor, Mark Robinson, I’m convinced, not only the federal government but also the current democratic leadership is certainly lacking in what the great people of NC deserve especially those in the western part of our state! Those people need help and it is taking much too long for our local government to act!
They simply want us dead.
NC is central to the globalists’ Piedmont-Atlantic mega region.
“They simply want us dead.”
My conclusion, too.
I believe Asheville is on the planned 15 minute cities list. Tampa too. HMMMMMM…….
They want to make it impossible for the survivors to vote!
According to, hopefully, our next governor, Mark Robinson, the Republicans are going to get our NC citizens to the polls—come hell or high water (no pun intended). The republicans know what the demonic democrats are trying to do!
So, when do We want them dead?
Wow. Hadn’t seen that…
Why does Criswell remind of Samantha powers?
Soulless liars have a pained, hollow, unfulfilled look about them?
I sure would like to give Ms. Criswell some idea of what real Americans think and we don’t like them …at all
FEMA, Secret Service, ICE, etc. all belong to Department of Homeland Security.
And Department of Homeland Security knows all about Disinformation.
Dear GOD! Are you trying to give us nightmares?
Matt called Nina the singing censor lol
Meet the FEMA boss; same as the Secret Service boss; Majorkas. Deanne Criswell is another DEI hire just like the
departed Secret Service head. Suspicious Cat’s suspicions are confirmed; another government agency that
serves masters who hate the American people.
Talk about misinformation/disinformation – its all just FALSE information from the government.
It has gotten to the point where if I see that Bill Gates and Blackrock are involved, I know it is immoral, and intended to harm for personal gain!
That’s a fairly safe assumption, nowadays.
They not just part of the problem, they’re primary causes of our problems.
Get their money out of government and some other corrupt entities would step in. But the immense amount of assets they control is unequalled in history.
Thanks GB, for everything you posted! It has all been helpful. (I also figured out how to add emojis to the Reply box yesterday). 🤣
👍
You’re most welcome EE. Glad you’ve found some of it useful.
Correction to your Reply, not some, ALL was useful! 🙏🏼😊
Elon says that Gates is so anti Trump because he’s scared of Trump releasing info on Epstein!
Gates should be scared of FAR more than that! He is an extremely sick and disgusting excuse for a human being!
Yes. I caught that too in the Tucker/Elon interview (fun-fest?).
Thank you, Sundance, for posting that for us.
Oops. They knpw they got caught red-handed..
So now they want to HIDE THE EVIDENCE…
More info on NOAA trying to hide the evidence of their manipulating the weather / hurricanes…
Perhaps Ms. Crisswell can join Ms. Cheatle in the unemployment line.
Within the last ten days, Marjorie Taylor Green, Col. Douglas MacGregor, Gen. Michael Flynn, and Lara Logan have all spoken up to highlight the existence of weather warfare and its connection to Helene.
Not a coincidence.
Result?
[They] are scared.
Why?
Truth bombs that used to take years to impact now take a few weeks, possibly less.
That’s why FEMA is doing what it is doing -desperately trying to put its finger in the dike of the imminent catastrophic collapse of the manufactured Matrix of mass mind control.
Just a guess, but. . . watch the Eye of Milton (as in John Milton) pass directly over Mar A Lago. (Capitalization intentional).
Sometimes you can’t tell the people, you have to show them.
Put on the full armor of God . . . and in the end, stand.
Shades of President Trump surviving yet another assault, this time on his home.
Could be a wrong guess. But if that happens? No one is going to believe it was just a coincidence.
Oh, and by the way, do you think the puppet masters have heard of the Hatfield’s and McCoy’s? Blood feud when the rednecks really realize they were attacked, you miserable demonic cretins who blithely slaughter civilians.
Blood feud.
You WON’T be able to walk the streets.
The government thinks they are probably all drugged up on pain killers, et al.
“Who ya gonna believe–me or yer lyin’ eyes?”
All federal government agencies have been packed with incompetent lesbians, queers and transvestites by this Marxist regime. It is as if Disney World is our government.
More information they will try to deny – the NASA SPorT group admits to having coordinated with federal and state partners to “support the response to Helene’s landfall.” This is the same thread where it was admitted they new several days in advance of what was to come…
What has Alexa had to say about Milton?
“It’s creating distrust in the federal government, but also the state government, and we have so many first responders that have been working to go out and help these communities,” she added. {link}
Trust for the government is long gone…
The Cackling Communist, with massive help from the pervasive media propaganda organization, is attempting to deny what she said and did and portray PDJT’s comments about her $750 as “disinfo.”
Yet here she is stating that very thing during one of her dog and pony show stops, pretending to be doing something.
Many commented on absurd statement and contrasted it with foreign aid for non-Americans and illegals. This one shows the devastation in one area where all of the framing for houses that were wiped away were floating.
Here was a great short one person play put on that illustrated the absurdity of it all (worth the watch).
Good analogy young man. This election will reveal the intellect of America.
Reality is that not only can the vast majority of those in dire need have no way to “go online” and apply, the ones that are able are being denied. In recent days threads I’ve posted several people who have tried and were denied, including two sisters. Here is another example of this occurring.
First Hand Account of Hurricane Helene Victim Confirming $750 FEMA Aid Offered To Him IS A LOAN
American has been crying for 20 minutes after FEMA visited him, “sorry for the emotions”
“There is a FEMA man who came and explained something very serious about the $750 that you guys don’t know and that they’re not going to tell you. And unless you have a magnifying glass in the contract that they’re going to sign during your inspection, you’ll never see it.
So you’re going to hear it from me and hopefully from everybody else who is going to share this shit around. The $750 is a loan.
It’s not free. They’re not giving it to you. It’s a loan And if you don’t pay back that seven hundred and fifty dollar loan within a year, they’re gonna seize your property”
“Don’t take it. Do not take it. One thing that you’re going to notice folks is they’re not giving that money to people who have a little bit of money. They’re not giving it to people who have jobs. They’re giving it to the welfare of people who have nothing, who have absolutely nothing. And they’re going to take advantage of these people first.”
“It just, just blows my mind”
Not true. I lost a home and car in Ian. FEMA set up shop in libraries. I went to the library about 3 weeks after the storm and registered with them. Right after that I received $700 in my bank account. Not a loan. They did require you to apply for a small business loan. I didn’t understand that.
The big difference is our roads were passable and theirs are not.
You’re wrong. This new $750 paperwork is different. It is a loan and if you have home owners insurance, you’re denied the pittance of money.
You seem to think the wordings of federal regulations and policies cannot be changed. They ARE, constantly.
Whenever a Demoncrat is put in charge of a federal agency, they routinely erase and replace every word written during republican administrations. Everything that provably worked is tossed out. Everything proven NOT to work is tossed in.
Sane people cannot hate the Demoncrat Party enough. It is the Party of failed ideas, failed policies, and failed people.
It is a Party that seems straight from Hell, determined to weasel-word good intentions while actively seeking to cause as much confusion, chaos, and costly human suffering as imaginable, in every single aspect of everything they are put in charge of. Endlessly. No deviation from course.
I cannot fathom why we allow these demonic lunatics to remain in power. Their Party should be forcibly disbanded using existing RICO statutes. We would not be under one-party GOP rule afterwards, because some Leftist shill like the Greens would simply take their place.
But at least their deeply-entrenched machine-party politics roots would be disrupted. For awhile. Until they all became Greens or whatever, and resumed their damnable destruction again.
We Americans could all use at least a temporary respite from their ceaseless insanity, though.
That is new and horrifying information.
Well, that explains how the govturds seize your property.
Here is a brief accounting of foreign aid that Kamala and Brandon have thrown away instead of helping Americans.
And apparently NOT being given but rather being loaned. A loan which needs to be repaid. Thanks Heels-up.
The rag mop top joined in on the propaganda, but inadvertently slipped up and admitted that the bulk of the money released for Helena was for small business loans and NOT to help individuals – the majority of which don’t own a small business – and need funding and help yesterday to just SURVIVE.
Yeah, I noticed that she ran away after Doocy’s questions. I’m surprised they even let him into the briefing room.
These two sheriffs tell it like it really is, straight from one of the hard hit areas in WNC. They don’t think much of Kamala or FEMA.
Love ’em! Excellent representation of my tough Appalachian people!!!
Others that were denied any help…
Here is the mop top herself – in the first clip denying any FEMA money was spent on illegal invaders – and in the second where she previously admitted to doing exactly that.
Here is a DHS webpage admitting to half a billion dollars for illegals in just one of many grants…
https://archive.is/vLwlZ
Here is over $1 BILLION available in grants for security around illegal alien communities, transfer and support facilities…
https://archive.is/Tr0xA
Here’s another half Billion dollars for “shelter and services” of illegal invaders.
SSP provides financial support to non-federal entities that provide humanitarian services to noncitizen migrants following their release from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Contrast – providing funding from his own pocket and helping raise more versus going on a smut show and talking about sex.
Disband FEMA along with FBI, ATF, and CIA. They have outlived their usefulness.
These agencies have soiled themselves irreparably — AND WE DON’T WANT THEM ANYMORE.
They are an embarrassment to our beloved country.
They do not represent us. They represent the oligarchs who obviously wish us “disappeared.”
Congressional congresswoman – $1 billion for illegal invaders that was meant for flood victims. Kamala and Brandon are utter disgraces and along with Mayorkas, evil as hell.
Lady deals with the administration and media lies.
She just might be another diamond in the making!
The problem with the Democrats is that they measure us by themselves — they’re a bunch of moral and intellectual midgets and so they think we are too.
Big mistake.
Read the fine print, the $750 is a LOAN!
Robert Barnes and Viv Chewing Up FEMA.
Republicans were right to shut off the flow of taxpayer $ to FEMA. It’s like taking the keys away from a reckless-driving, idiot son.
The more Repubs agree to fund FEMA the more the dems and their favorites will steal from us.
Steal our money and give billions to their cronies and then demand we pony up more money to give our own citizens in their need and then say sorry, we’re all out.
These dems are despicable. COMMIE to the core.
MORAL inferiors. All that stupid virtue signaling is but a deflection and based on a made-up set of values, here today then chucked tomorrow when the masses get wise to your grift.
Medical RX in NC for the effected.
Mud, flood, everything swept away. What if you don’t have your medicine bottles anymore?
A pharmacy chain like Walgreens, CVS or WalMart should have your information in their company computer system rather than just at any one pharmacy. If the pharmacies participating in the above program have access to any of these data bases the patient may be able to get their prescription filled. Other than that than they’re SOL. A trip to the nearest ER might be in order to get a temp prescription.
I once worked for a company that failed to hold its people accountable for mistakes..mistakes that often created unsafe conditions that also included financial upset. It was a status quo mentality. The so called leadership was fond of saying that it liked to create a non toxic work environment. But the problem is that customers noticed the quality escapes and the non nonchalant pathetic experience.
in a short period of time, accounts were lost to competitors, who had strong principles and sound rules about how to develop exceptional service and accountability.
the problem you see is that “government” does not operate on a profit basis. There is also no other competitor, no alternatives. policing and accountability are filtered through abysmal ineffective “labor” policies…that include DEI as a primary focus. There is also no conditions set for performance. None that really matters.
So what you end up seeing is that personnel simply “show up and go through the motions”…like a great game of pretending to do things. to say things…but in the end, there isn’t anything worthy accomplished. And when someone really messes up, it gets ignored. In this kind of environment it is FORBIDDEN to recognize and reject failure, because it brings awareness and truth about the deeper problems “of the state”…that it has become too large and there are no consequences for poor performance.
we can blame “the left”, and this would be largely true, but the Harris diagram (aka, the venn) has a large eclipse of both “right” and “left” who are “in state”. They both suffer the same failures and both are responsible for those failures.
the best thing a person could do is to simply resign out of government, and pursue more worthy and honorable professions. the state cannot be saved… nor does it wish to be saved and reformed.
status quo..
God Bless America
This is just one small team, but they hauled 23 semitrailer loads of relief supplies to the Helena disaster areas in spite of the numerous challenges presented. The lady yesterday was right about lines of truckers bringing relief for Appalachia.

Would this be a good address to mail some boxes of winter clothing?
A Georgia company steps up and delivers 5,000 gallons of gas to the devastated Appalachia region, working with Biffle.
Eleven family members swept away.
Is this misinformation you crazy hag?
8 generators delivered and a trackhoe with a 36″ bucket rented by another Angel for Appalachia.
Video of how roads were destroyed and in other cases homes and communities and people swept away. If you listen carefully at the beginning, you can hear it coming.
I imagine that is very similar to what the boy at the orphanage saw/heard and warned others to move out of the way.
Call for farm animal feed – if it’s driven up, they have choppers to airlift it the last leg into the mountains.
Need prayers for the families of these three fellow Americans that gave their all to help the people of Appalachia and tragically lost their lives.
Think this is something many don’t think about – all these efforts have dangers that people willingly accept to help others. Let’s keep ’em all in our prayers.
A team is doing clearing work. Contact info and what they’ll do.
Some more truth being spit about the complete lack of government help for most of the Helene disaster areas.
Short video showing a road that was made passable by volunteers – which enabled more volunteers to transport supplies and aid deeper into the mountain. Once again, zero government help (hell, let’s be honest – it would be a year before they even got the road cleared and passable due to their glacial movement at the speed of dark – after which folks would be dead). There REALLY needs to be a complete revamping of FEMA with problem solvers, doers, and movers. Their current priorities of “diversity”, “equity” and “climate change” HAS to go – or they need to be eliminated completely.
Florida showing how it can be done…unlike NC which evacuated them to a safe zone, leaving the communities to fend for themselves WITHOUT evacuation. Just show where the NC dims put the people in the priority list – after prisoners.
Speaking of disasters – hurricanes that grow in strength faster than previously seen and now the wildfires out west doing the same. Nothing to see…
Pilots grounded that were involved in the rotor wash disaster 🙂
Americans helping Americans – husband wife team get medical aid center set up within 2 days. The federal government – still nowhere to be found after almost 2 weeks.

“Helping Hands”, from American Citizens,…. not the Feral Govt who only holds pressers to pat each other on the back and blame We The People for their incompetence and failures in a weather emergency.
The Cackling Communist has gone to victim shaming in an attempt to gloss over her administration’s total and complete bend over of the American people.

Texas company steps up to help Helene stricken areas…
Many Georgia farmers were also effected by Helene at the worst possible time – nigh harvest time.
One of the methods that communication continues during the worst disasters. Handhelds and relay stations are indispensable to get the word out – and in.
Wonder if the feds consider this “misinformation” as well…those Wyoming fires that spread unnaturally quickly…
Wyoming faces a desperate situation as wildfires scorch 629,000 acres, mostly on private land, threatening both the landscape and livestock.
As the state battles three major wildfires, emergency orders have been issued to expedite the transportation of animals and their feed.
Amidst this crisis, Wyoming is also home to one of North America’s largest deposits of rare earth elements, which are crucial to modern technology, hinting at the potential for a multi-billion dollar mining industry in the state’s future.
Mark Robinson leads the NC legislature to get it done for WNC.
Now is not the time for petty partisanship, political grandstanding, or photo-op resolutions.
It is time for BOLD, decisive and aggressive action.
Today, our leadership in the legislature has done just that.
Our neighbors in the western part of the state are suffering from the impacts of this devastating storm. The Disaster Recovery Act of 2024 is the first step down the long and difficult road to recovery.
This legislation provides $273,000,000 in immediate direct funding for western North Carolina.
Additionally, it begins the process of establishing and safeguarding procedures for the upcoming election. It is imperative that each and every North Carolinian has a place to vote, transportation to get there, and ample time to cast a ballot – including citizens in storm-ravaged communities.
I am proud of our General Assembly for working day and night to take this swift action. We will not rest until North Carolina is back and better than ever before.
He also stepped up very early on, organizing a relief effort by private citizens, aided in part by the NCHP and Franklin County Sheriff’s Office.
This morning we shipped our 3,000,000th pound of life-saving resources to western North Carolina.
Praise be to God.
