I had the summary news about 24 hours into NC, with a lot of photos but not much info. Info was coming from one source seeking help, maybe the same source you have? I didn't realize that the far eastern part of Tennessee was affected. Then I looked at it. I didn't realize Ashville NC was so close to Chattanooga relatively. The death toll mentioned here is higher. I've only heard over 100 dead, maybe 600-800, with 1/3 of them in Ashville. In 1910 Ashville was hit by a hurricane that flooded the downtown, so based upon a sepia toned photo that was shown, it appears a hurricane hit Asheville before. What I don't understand was some reference that people in need of help believe another hurricane is still coming which they won't survive without help.

I've been reading posts on Facebook. There is a lot of aid being offered (citizen to citizen, mostly, it seems). Today's Coffee & Covid has updates (https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/knuckleheads-wednesday-october-2), & I just read this post from the Breggins. https://gingerbreggin.substack.com/p/towns-are-gone-others-devastated

A former female military vet was interviewed today who lives in an area only damaged by high winds and some flooding that is about 30-50 miles from Asheville, but nobody is dead. She went up to Ashville to check her relatives up there were ok. She estimates 1000s are dead and not recovered by the overwhelming stench. She says do not give any money to FEMA as FEMA is not delivering even needed water and formula to those trapped without them in flooded homes where they remain. FEMA is collecting data but not helping anybody. It sounds like a FEMA repeat of LaHaina HI that the locals reported of confiscation of incoming food that didn't make it timely to victims. All the help is citizen to citizen. The head of FEMA and his superiors need to be investigated for treason and tyranny and misconduct in office and The Biden Harris Administration is ultimately responsible. I think Harris just lost the election as public opinion is turning rapidly against her and Biden, as people are learning this is Katrina only on steroids. Over 50% of the nation seem to have awareness of geoengineering and chemtrails and have wanted that stopped ever since Tennessee passed legislation that could include that but without any enforcement mechanisms.

Thanks for this! I’m a bit behind on coverage, but Celia Farber (the Truth Barrier) is posting a lot about it, & Chris Bray (Tell me how this ends). I see posts on FakeBook about regular folks helping regular folks. It’s truly a nightmare beyond my ability to take in, really. Not just mine, clearly. (Oh, also the Coffee & Covid guy’s posts are always very newsy. & James Kunstler (Clusterfuck Nation) is hugely informative, always.)
