There is so much disinformation out there about the Biden-Harris Administration’s hurricane response.
Why don’t we ask the Republican Governors of the impacted states how they feel about FEMA’s handling of this disaster?
South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster (R): “The federal response to the hurricane has been superb. I was able to speak to the president yesterday. We're getting assistance and we're asking for everything we need.”
Q: How do you feel about the federal response?
North Carolina Senator Tom Tillis (R): I'm impressed. They're doing a great job. We're working together and I'm pretty proud of the effort that's been done
Fmr. Ohio Governor John Kasich (R): “It's maddening to see that a person running for president would use a hurricane, where there's been such tremendous hardship and loss of life, to try to create a fable. To say somehow that money that was designed to go to hurricane relief has been spent on immigrants, I mean, it's just dead wrong. But Trump continues to say it.”
Georgia Adjutant General Richard Wilson: “I want to thank the federal government for their hard work in delivering disaster relief. The response effort has been phenomenal.”
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper (D): “We have federal rescue teams from all over the country right now. They’re going to keep pouring in the resources. I've been talking with President Biden a couple of times today, talking with Vice President Harris, and the FEMA director is on the ground.”
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp (R): “I spoke with President Biden yesterday and he said, ‘Hey what do you need?’ And I told him we got what we need. He offered that if there's other things we need to just to call him directly. I appreciate that.”
South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster (R): “The federal government is helping us. There is no asset out there that we have not already accessed.”
And finally…
FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell: “Trump’s claims are categorically false. We have been there supporting Governor Cooper and everybody across western North Carolina. We had teams on the ground before the storm made landfall in western North Carolina. Our funding has not been impacted by any of those other needs across the federal government.”
I have friends who just moved to NC, living in the hills just south of Asheville! They are saying the same! Of course there is surreal devastation, but the help arrived fast and set up kitchens, delivered water immediately and are helping as fast as they can!
