Hurricane Helene – and election interference?

Hurricane Helene – and election interference?
By Terry A. Hurlbut
A former Obama White House official has just taunted conservative with a suggestion that, if true, constitutes treason. David Axelrod has suggested that the Biden White House might be withholding aid from the area that suffered the worst effects from Hurricane Helene. This is the western part of North Carolina, the residents of which mainly intended to vote for Donald Trump. If they do not get the help they need, they might not be able to vote. That might be exactly what the White House, and the Democratic National Committee, want. David Axelrod might simply be throwing out a puerile taunt – like other overgrown bullies. But he might also have broken security on a systematic campaign of treason by the Biden-Harris administration.
What did David Axelrod say?
David Axelrod apparently made that statement on the latest episode of his weekly podcast, “The Axe Files.” Recall that David Axelrod was Barack Obama’s political consultant during the Election of 2008. He later served in the Obama White House as a senior adviser to the President. Now he runs his own show and typically interviews politicians and policymakers on the left.
Last night he published an interview he had done with Janet Yellen, current Secretary of the Treasury. Apparently at some point in their conversation, he spoke of persons in the disaster area from Tropical Cyclone Helene. Miranda Devine, host of Devine Online, quoted him as saying this:
[Affected Democrats in Asheville, North Carolina are] upscale liberal voters, and they're probably going to figure out a way to vote. I'm not sure a bunch of these folks who had their homes and lives destroyed elsewhere, in western North Carolina, in the mountains, there are going to be as easy to wrangle for the Trump campaign.
An outraged Devine quoted the above on an X post. In that post, she also “quoted” another post embedding video of an interview President Biden gave. According to Clay Travis, Biden was saying all the people in Georgia, the Carolinas, and Tennessee were “getting everything they need and are ‘very happy.’”

Christina Laila of The Gateway Pundit shared Ms. Devine’s post.
Early this morning Donald Trump shared this quote from Fox News Channel’s Jesse Watters:
Jesse Watters: “Over 200 Americans are dead after Hurricane Helene and the thousands of victims impacted have been disgracefully left behind. The Biden administration has blocked ongoing rescue operations and North Carolina is living in the dark ages because Joe Biden and Kamala Harris hate Elon Musk. FEMA is now out of money, because Joe Biden and Kamala spent over a billion dollars of FEMA cash on migrants. Illegals got luxury hotel rooms, but Kamala’s just tossing Helene victims $750 and heading back on the campaign trail. This must not meet her standard for giving extra resources- she only wants to do that based on equity.”

Recall that yesterday, Sean Davis shared a report that Gov. Roy Cooper (D-N.C.) was delaying deployment of National Guard assets.
According to a source in North Carolina, despite 1,000 troops being ready and authorized to respond in NC, FEMA Region 4 and Democrat NC Gov. Roy Cooper haven’t yet written up the mission orders that the troops need in order to be deployed. So those troops are just sitting around twiddling their thumbs. It’s been 7 days since Hurricane Helene made landfall. What on earth are you doing, Roy Cooper and FEMA?

Recall also that Jim Hoft of TGP shared this lengthy report showing that FEMA has spent all its money. So FEMA has none to spare for Hurricane Helene relief.
Will you believe FEMA or your lying ears?
Reports coming out of the Hurricane Helene disaster area are beginning to sting. Now FEMA has set up a Rumor Control Hotline, according to Kristinn Taylor (TGP). Kamala Harris’ promise of immediate relief consisting of $750 per person stung especially bitterly. FEMA now calls this Serious Needs Assistance:
One type of assistance that is often approved quickly after you apply is Serious Needs Assistance, which is $750 to help pay for essential items like food, water, baby formula, breastfeeding supplies, medication and other emergency supplies. There are other forms of assistance that you may qualify to receive once you apply for disaster assistance. As your application continues to be reviewed, you may still receive additional forms of assistance for other needs such as support for temporary housing and home repair costs. Learn more about the types of assistance available. If you have questions about your disaster assistance application and what you qualify for, contact us at 1-800-621-3362 to speak with a FEMA representative.
But that “application process” might not even get started. FEMA is already on an “Immediate Needs Funding” basis. That $750 might buy groceries for a week – or two – if one can get to an open grocery store!
FEMA also wants people to believe that none of their operatives are stopping trucks containing donations of emergency supplies. That’s a lie. From Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.):
Yesterday, you stated that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which is a part of your department, “does not have enough funds to make it through the hurricane] season.” This news comes after FEMA has spent hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on migrants due to Border Czar Kamala Harris' open border instead of prioritizing funding for Americans impacted by disasters.
My office has been in contact with whistleblowers in numerous emergency-management functions at the federal, state, and local levels, and they all point to the same critical mismanagement issues. FEMA has wasted taxpayer funds, misappropriated funds, and left other federal, state, and local responders without deployment orders on the ground.
As reported and further confirmed by my office, hundreds, if not thousands of service members were deployed by the Department of Defense to North Carolina and have sat idle, waiting for FEMA. We have confirmed FEMA employees deployed, on the clock, awaiting orders in hotels. FEMA pre-disaster aid was withheld, exacerbating the emergency. It is also public [knowledge] that NGOs have purchased airline tickets for migrants through the use of FEMA funds.
The aftermath of Hurricane Helene is a major disaster, and your waste and unpreparedness are leaving Americans in distress—unable to access food, water, or medicine—and expecting help, with none coming.
Please provide answers to the following questions to my office by October 11, 2024:
(1) What policies and regulations of the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA prevent emergency funds from being wasted on illegal immigrants, including what conditions are placed on grantees of the agency?; and
(2) Of FEMA's total budget for FY 2024, what portion of funds can be guaranteed to have been spent solely on American citizens, and what portion of funds was or may have been spent on noncitizens?; and
(3) In FY 2024, what portion of funds in the Disaster Relief Fund has been spent on non-disaster-relief programs, such as providing services to illegal aliens or providing routine training to FEMA employees
authorized our of general appropriations.

President Biden did, finally, visit the disaster area in North Carolina on Wednesday. Source: WLOS-TV, Channel 13, ABC-TV, Raleigh, N.C.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QtTYQ7kSRo
But that visit provoked a four-hour delay in search-and-rescue efforts, according to Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.)
President Biden decided to do a fly-in… he put a 30-mile TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) around the actual impacted area, which means that no helicopters and no plane have any access or any capability to fly. So for four hours, they were grounded, search and rescue were grounded, distribution of food and supplies was grounded.

Jim Hoft also confirmed FEMA’s programs of assistance to non-citizens. The embedded images show that this has been going on for more than a year.
Late this afternoon, Elon Musk accused FEMA operatives of interfering with his SpaceX engineers as they set up Starlink stations and deliver supplies.
Just received this note from a SpaceX engineer helping on the ground in North Carolina. FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help!
“Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives. The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough.”
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1842246865234128978
Just received this text 20 mins ago. The level of belligerent government incompetence is staggering!!
Mike: “Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC….”
Musk: WTF!? FEMA is both incompetent and stopping people from helping!? How can I help?
Mike: It’s true. They are now about to shut down the Air space to ‘regulate’ the private choppers we are riding in to deliver Starlink and supplies. We are pushing back with Trump team as well to help us, but not looking good. We need help to get word out about FEMA. We spoke with Ivanka [Trump] and handed out Starlinks with her yesterday, but FEMA then showed up and started blocking us.
The largest concern for us here is the FAA throttling flights for our choppers, where they are requiring To/from information and mission now to deliver a discrete code. Doing this takes a long time and very cumbersome to the ops. This is the largest concern and most help we could use. But I appreciate…
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1842252268856324160
In response to this post, Pete Buttigieg, Secretary of Transportation, dared call Musk a liar! But Musk, copying Laura Loomer, has the receipts.
BUTTIGIEG: No one is shutting down the airspace and FAA doesn’t block legitimate rescue and recovery flights. If you’re encountering a problem give me a call.
MUSK: There are hundreds of reports of FEMA/FAA blocking flights. This literally just happened. I will follow you. Please DM me the number to call.
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1842286740591292549
Musk also shared video from one of his engineers:
SpaceX engineers are trying to deliver Starlink terminals & supplies to devastated areas in North Carolina right now and FEMA is both failing to help AND won’t let others help. This is unconscionable!!
They just took this video a few hours ago, where you can see the level of devastation: roads, houses, electricity, water supply and ground Internet connections completely destroyed. FEMA wouldn’t let them land to deliver critical supplies … my blood is boiling …
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1842284913279586447
Will Hurricane Helene decide the election?
Elon Musk and at least two Members of Congress have just confirmed that FEMA is blocking others from helping. Witnesses accuse FEMA operatives of seizing supplies so they can pretend that the supplies came from the federal government. Or perhaps they’re making sure those supplies never get through, and hundreds of people starve. Again, whoever is running that Rumor Control Desk is lying through his or her teeth.
In light of this outrageous performance, David Axelrod’s taunt becomes seriously chilling. This suggests that the government is deliberately plotting to make sure none of the people in the affected area, except the residents of the ritzy neighborhoods in Asheville, will be casting any votes this election season. David Axelrod knows it. But, like a surprising number of Democratic Party sympathizers, he does not know how to keep his mouth shut. In this featured image on Christina Laila’s article, he delivers an ear-to-ear smirk.

This is treason – levying war against one’s own country. Stopping people from voting isn’t even the half of what the federal government is doing. If CNAV didn’t doubt the notion of human control of the weather, we’d believe the suspicions that the government spun up Tropical Cyclone Helene and sent her on her track, to cause maximum damage – and casualties – in Trump-sympathetic areas of the country.
Blood boiling is fine, in the heat of the moment. But eventually, several people need to receive Miranda Warnings.

And several other people rate impeachment for treason.
