North Carolina Realtor Says FEMA Taking Her Hurricane Helene Donations

“if you're reading about FEMA online — I can confirm it is true. I tried to send in a pallet of chainsaws 2 days ago and we had to divert it somewhere away from FEMA because they wanted to confiscate”

“I had a shipment trying to go in last night, somebody (at FEMA) wanted to inventory it. So we diverted that one elsewhere to get it into the hands of an apartment complex of seniors that had been neglected.

“FEMA, those aren’t chainsaws, our mountain people are much better with them than y'all are”

“There are people that we have not gotten to yet and we want to get to them. That's why those chainsaws are up there. So fine, we're going to go around you, FEMA, and don't try to get in the way of North Carolina mountain people when we are trying to take care of each other.”
