The devastation wrought across the American Southeast by Category 4 Hurricane Helene last week has naturally drawn comparisons to the 2005 Hurricane Katrina response. As a veteran of military logistics, I can confirm that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ response to this round of mass suffering has been orders of magnitude worse than federal actions taken after Katrina.
In August of 2005, I was a U.S. Army colonel serving on the Army staff in the Pentagon. Before Hurricane Katrina was even nearing landfall, I was detailed as a shift officer in the National Military Command Center (NMCC) for hurricane support operations. As a career logistics officer, this was the culmination of a noncombat mission I had been associated with since I was first commissioned: disaster relief and humanitarian support operations.

I think it all comes down to one question: Why would the Chicoms running this administration want to help Americans?
ReplyDelete"Are the Democrats this evil? "
ReplyDeleteWith the amount of hatred that has been pushed from the top on down, there will be plenty of volunteers to push some extra people into cattle cars for 'relocation'.
"Are the Democrats this evil?" Well, Cameltoe is lambasting DeSantis for "playing politics" during a crisis. Her campaign ads are lambasting the rich. Meanwhile, as people suffered losses in the Southeast, Cameltoe was rubbing elbows and kissing ass in Hollywood with the very people her ads say she despises... Also meanwhile, Florida's governor DeSantis as ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING about what happened to people during Helene, while staring down YET ANOTHER hurricane headed straight for his state. Also ALSO meanwhile, Trump has trucked supplies into the ravaged areas and Musk has lent his talents to the relief effort, BOTH using THEIR OWN MONEY to do it!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'd say that the Democrats can be this evil...
And don't even get me STARTED on how the Democrats GUTTED my once-great state of California!!!...
Why stop now, Pete? You're on a roll.
DeleteI don't have all day!!! I have to get back to work!!! MILLIONS of ILLEGALS and WELFARE BUMS are DEPENDING ON ME!!!!
DeleteFinal paragraph there is a good summary: "Why are they acting with such disregard for average Americans? Is it negligence? Is it our global commitments to endless wars? Or is it something far more sinister?"
ReplyDeleteI'm firmly on the "far more sinister" side of this. While it's true that "Never attribute to malice that which is adaquately explained by stupidity" we've gone FAR beyond that point on many different fronts. Especially when it comes to the federal government and the many large tech, pharm, and industrial corporations they're in bed with.
It's so bad that I'm inclined to believe the widespread reports of torturing little children to death and drinking their blood. (search for "adrenochrome" if you want even more horriffic info.)
Because that would be characteristic of the horrors they're perpetrating.
John G.
During development of the California Air Resouces Board diesel engine regulations, they commissioned UCLA to do a study of diesel particulate matter where they put children into sealed rooms and pumped in diesel exhaust. The study ended when it was pointed out the experiment was a flagrant violation of the Geneva Convention.
DeleteYes, Democrats really ARE that evil.
The guy who complained about the experiment was the only conservative member of the CARB board and a respected scientist. He was soon purged from the board.
I suspect that the real answer is the military unreadiness. I've been saying for years now that the old USA Military that people remember is long gone. It's barely a shell of its former glory in 191. Roughly 50% of that force is just gone and the rest is largely a Potemkin Village masking the missing assets and readiness.
ReplyDeleteYou have to remember we just went through a scamdemic where millions of people died unnecessarily and billions of lives ruined so the democrats could steal an election through mail-in ballots and no ballot counting observation. Not responding to a hurricane to cause further election chaos is childs play to the democrats.
ReplyDelete"Evil" just doesn't cover it. Pedophiles are evil. The DNC passed evil long ago. Shoot on sight come The Troubles
ReplyDelete"suggested"? I would say "Facts in evidence" but what do I know?...
ReplyDeleteHickory, NC has an airport that can accomodate a 767. It was not seriously affected by Helene and is only 70 miles east of Asheville.
ReplyDeleteAgain….
ReplyDeleteClif High….and his www predictions….
out there on aliens/ufo’s….

The current administration was hoping that private relief efforts would augment the pitiful response from fed.gov. They were hoping to cover up that all of the federal response $ appropriated for this and prior years when it hadn't been needed was being spent on feeding, clothing and housing their illegal alien invasion.
ReplyDeleteMayorkas, being the stupidest bureaucrat EVER to be hatched by the Swamp, outed himself and his agencies duplicity in committing crimes up to and including treason by revealing, much to the chagrin of the duplicitous MSM, that ALL of the FEMA money has been spent on the illegal alien invasion.
When Trump takes office in Jan '25, Mayorkas should be the first person he arrests and be held incommunicado without access to a lawyer while he's "being investigated", just like the Jan 6th prisoners. Let's see how fast he starts singing, like a canary, implicating Obozo, Bribem and Kamel Toe.
The Demonrats in CONgress will raise a big stink. Trump should just tell then to Eff Off or they'll be next. I'm thinking Schumer. Let's see how they like lawfare when it's turned against them.
They all think they're above the law just like every other common ordinary criminal, 'til they're not.

If they got serious about this the people of N Carolina would be recovered enough to vote, and except for a blue zone like Ashville, Axelrod said the quiet part out loud about he can't be worried about the other areas. This would explain all the lack of coordination being hidden behind the cameras that couldn't be bothered to be on site. When Sandy rolled up the Eastern seaboard a month out from the 2012 election it was all hands to stations, but reds state Tennessee, and North Carolina who wouldn't vote the right way, not such a big deal. This is discounting the rumors of a take over of the lithium mines, and the quartz mining in those areas.
