Chapters
Reports and firsthand accounts reveal FEMA's alleged mismanagement of aid during Hurricane Helene, including blocking private donations and leaving both FEMA employees and service members idle. While local communities organize volunteer efforts, the government's response is criticized as inadequate and obstructive.
  • FEMA is accused of blocking aid and seizing goods.
  • Whistleblowers allege FEMA misappropriated funds and withheld pre-disaster aid.
  • Private individuals and groups are organizing relief efforts due to lack of government support.

Shownotes Transcript

As the devastation from Hurricane Helene slowly became evident, the public also slowly became aware of another disaster: the reponse — or lack thereof — from FEMA to get aid to the desperate millions without power, without water, without food and without medicine. Multiple videos from irate residents decrying FEMA’s absence have since gone viral.   Meanwhile, private individuals eager to bring aid and other supplies to hurricane victims are similarly exercised at government restrictions and threats of arrest to anyone providing unauthorized assistance.   Plus segments on Chuck Schumer’s about-face on illegal immigration, Bill Gates’ insistence that the government crack down on speech that questions vaccines’ effectiveness, and western corporations efforts to buy up as much of Ukrainian farmland as possible.   Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
