Given the way the O'Biden Admin DOJ/_ _ _ & FEMA) handles things. The families, burying their own dead, will be charged, arrested, jailed and wait 3 years for a trial.

#3 General Major Todd Hunt

For those who do not know. The senior NG in each state is not chosen by DoD. It varies from state to state, but is often a political appointment without any prior military experience requirement. Per Article I, Sec 8 -

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

IIRC in one state it is a elected position.

Of course. Not specific to the current president and vice president, but common behaviour whenever VIPs come through to see for themselves… or be seen helping. The thoughtful ones like Ivanka Trump try to minimize the impact, or bring some extra supplies like President Trump did, but VIPs are by their nature disruptive in that environment.

FAA blocked helicopters carrying relief supplies from landing due to a law requiring contact info of people they’re meeting after they land.

This is why outdated laws need expiry dates and should be trashed. pic.twitter.com/0kRmvJSmhb

Just got off the phone with family in Franklin - Hayesville WNC. They are north of US-64 in what has become 1/2 back country. What they have described is hideous and far worse than the media & gov is reporting. They're pulling over ripe bodies out of trees. Houses hit with the likes of tidal waves and bodies floating in ponds. The NOC and Anderson, NC got its share of problems also.

The FED's, as I was told, are their biggest hideous in their community rescue and recovery efforts. Little if any food or supplies getting into the areas.

My Nephew made a comment that I had not thought of.
It seems the general feeling in his area, is the Democrats in charge, are hiding the far greater death toll than claimed, minimizing the mess and inability to do handle things. Because it is so close to the election.
