I’d love to see these rumor mongers take their goat smelling butts up to Asheville and other devastated areas and see first hand what FEMA, Red Cross, Army, Firefighters, EMT’s from around the state, Electric Companies, Walmart, Food Lion, Dollar General, Denny’s, Food trucks not to mention people from around the state that are helping. Go up there, volunteer and when you are so tired you are dragging along with everyone else then run your mouth.

“the department is urging people to get their information from trusted sources like the State Emergency Response Team, National Weather Service, and other federal, state, county and local government sites.” Bahahahaaa trusted government 😂😂. That’s rich. Not as rich as Zelenskyy in Ukraine, thanks to OUR government…but a joke all the same
