Despite claims by the White House that President Biden is doing a stellar job providing aid to the families of Appalachia whose lives were destroyed by Hurricane Helene, the actual victims are telling a much different story. Watch below as an upset young woman explains that her 70-year-old aunt in Burnsville, N.C., a small town not far from Asheville to the north, has not been heard from since last Friday. According to the woman, there is no formidable government response in the affected areas (warning: language): Other than a handful of civilians, some of them working out of small government offices, there is nobody trying to help the many victims of Hurricane Helene who, like the above woman's aunt, are stuck in locations that are no longer accessible by car. (Related: Parts of Asheville and western North Carolina are in ruins following Hurricane Helene, which unleashed a Mad Max-type scenario on the region.)

Why aren't they helping people?

Besides not helping victims, the government that is on the ground in Appalachia is actually turning away volunteers and threatening them with punishment if they disobey. "They are threatening to arrest those people," the woman in the video above explains. "They are threatening to arrest people who are trying to ... help people survive. My aunt is 70 years old with mobility issues. Anyone know what the government ... doing? Jack ****." "There is no power, there is no water, they have no supplies, and the government is currently trying to arrest people who are delivering supplies via helicopter." As sad as it is to say this, it seems like North Carolina and Tennessee are getting the Lahaina treatment. Just like in Hawaii, disaster struck and the government took over – not to help the victims, mind you, but to seize control of the region for ulterior purposes. In this case, it seems like the rich and powerful want western North Carolina's rich lithium and ultra-pure quartz reserves, which could explain why instead of helping the victims there, the government is turning people away and doing something else that we cannot yet see. "Joe Biden said we're doing all that we can for North Carolina. Kamala Harris is currently having a fundraiser for her campaign in LA and Las Vegas, not for the people in North Carolina or Tennessee." On Twitter / X, someone dutifully pointed out that local sheriffs still have the final say on what goes on in their jurisdictions, so if the feds are blocking aid, these local sheriffs can step in to tell them to scram. "The doctrine of lesser magistrates," this person wrote. "Local sheriffs need to begin arresting any federal employee that threatens or interferes with local relief efforts." Another noted that Biden just gave America's strategic stockpile of backup generators and transformers to Ukraine, but because of the port shutdown these critical items are still on U.S. soil and can still be intercepted and delivered to Appalachia where they truly belong. "Confiscate it all and send it to western North Carolina where they're needed," this person wrote. "We need to do this. Truckers idle from port strike could come to aid delivering tons of resources. Government turning away thousands trying to deliver aid and help could be the start of a needed peaceful revolution."
