Trump is guilty of not helping people in need. He only helps himself. What a jerk. The people who voted for him it's what you deserve. Unfortunately the innocent will suffer too.
We understand that not everyone voted for this. How many stayed home, how many ignored what was going on. How many stayed silent while the magas screamed we don't want FEMA. It's no help anyway. We will do it out way. We will pull our bootstraps up and help each other. So get to pulling.
The Americans of North Carolina elected a Democrat as Governor, who also happens to be a Jew. Any chance this has anything to do with hitler lite screwing the people of NC?
You do realize that only 49% of people voted for him. The other 48% voted for Harris. It was barely the popular vote. He did lie & say he would be a President for all.
The Big Lie propelled him to the presidency. If only Harris had a little more time and another debate. But the lying coward duped all the gullible morons. And now, here we are!
He was just a very good liar that had an answer for everything. Sad he was ever in a reality show that made him popular. I tired watching it once but I couldn’t watch how he treated people.
At least he's consistent. Didn't give it to Arkansas. Didn't give to Missouri or Kentucky either.
Of course, is there anything left of FEMA after president musk tore it apart.
Has FEMA been made to give any of its funding away, like to ICE, or expenses for ‘uniforms’? I recall a Senator saying Noem was spending $$$$$ excessively.
He’s not cutting his own staff though. He’s never been great with math, he managed to bankrupt multiple casinos. Republicans are complicit, they know better.
Everyone told you so but you thought you were so smart you voted him into office sntichrist cult so live with it you're making us do the same thing and we don't even like him and we didn't even vote for him shame on you you're a traitor
I sympathize with those North Carolina voters who voted for Harris. But if you voted for Trump, you knew what you were getting. Trump voters voted against their own interests.
Oh just think of all those foolish low-income earning Republicans who voted for him because he was going to lower the cost of groceries and eggs and make America great again, even though it's never really been great. This is a nightmare you are not going to wake up from. To got what you voted for.
It's time the people only pay taxes to their State. Trump is taking money for himself, his shtty jets, bitcoins and gold throne in the WH and denies healthcare, hurricane relief, food to the poor. Signs a few Eos that he hasn't read, calls it a tough work day, then goes golfing.
I stand corrected. Those five counties voted MORE blue than in 2020; the rest of the state voted more red, including the other counties that voted blue.
FYI, two of the western NC counties that were hardest hit by Helene voted for Harris. 47.8% of NC voters voted for Harris, 51% for him. Writing off the entire state makes you no better than him.
Just tell them that there are billionaires out there who need their tax cuts much more than North Carolina needs disaster relief. I'm sure they'll understand.
Hey douchebag, NC is deep purple. And the areas that were hit hardest are predominantly liberal. So, how about you get off your fucking high horse and remember that these are real people, not colored dots in a map, and not all of us voted for this orange clown.
I grew up in Hendersonville and lived in Asheville for years. My parents still live there and their very liberal neighbors had 5 trees come down on their roof. Many of my friends lost their businesses and homes. None of them were Trump supporters.
We are talking by the numbers, not your relatives. NC voted for 45. We still have billboards up supporting him and a huge Confederate flag greets you when you come from VA to NC or vice-versa. You can't miss the flag. I'm from NC and voted Dem all my life. We are outnumbered by the stupid in NC.
I’m not convinced they didn’t. The math ain’t mathing. Check out the data being compiled by the Election Truth Alliance. I know for certain that MY vote wasn’t counted and I voted in person on election day.
The vote totals of the statewide votes in NC (President, Governor, Amendment 1) are pretty consistent. About 5.5 - 5.6 million votes cast. There are 7.6 million registered voters in NC, so 2 million voters stayed home.
I’ll repeat: I am not convinced. The math ain’t mathing. Check out the data being compiled by the Election Truth Alliance. I know for certain that MY vote wasn’t counted and I voted in person on election day. I’ll believe once I see a hand counted audit.
First of all, I believe the 2024 election was stolen by Elon and co. Hell, they all but openly admitted it and the numbers certainly aren’t adding up.
Secondly, and most importantly, the areas of NC that were hit the hardest are BLUE areas. And don’t “deserve what they get”.
Lots of people gave up on voting. They are more oppressed in red states that do a lot to deny them their voting rights. They live in information blackholes, too. We can't have this take anymore. We have to see their plight as our own.
I live in a red county in Illinois and we busted our asses to get out the vote here and failed. I can only imagine what some people there feel like when they see this sentiment. When people say this stuff, they need to think of all the people who are stuck in red places.
I am thinking about that. Thanks for your work. That's why we need candidates who offer them something they can believe in and then deliver it to them.
Maybe blue states should come and help blue counties only, and let magats infested counties ponder their life choices. A lot of people who didn't vote for Mango Mussolini are suffering for no real reason, while their neighbors totally owned the libs
Trump is willing to deny Asheville North Carolina FEMA funding unless they conform to his radical anti DEI policies. Further hurting citizens of that state.
I keep wondering WHY maralardass is never hit. Can't we have 1 freak mess hit it?? Just so he knows what it feels like?? But you know him, he will blame it on someone else, of they would be Dems.
unbelievable but those will still vote for those heartless republicans!!! No matter how we try to convince them to vote wisely . They will not listen !!! Their choice that’s all!!!
It wasn’t fully denied. It was cut by 200 Million (or 10% of original amount). I find Trump repulsive for many reasons, but we don’t need to mislead people with this shit. Plenty of very fucked up things going on that speak for themselves like this shit
Not really sure what your intention is here. I agree, the headline is misleading/untrue. Should be focusing on a real, looming issue like the big bullshit bill that is now in the senate. There are shitty aspects of the cut to FEMA relief but fuck don’t lie about it esp. bc it’s taking focus away
how many of those 80 million actually didn't vote, not because they couldn't care less, but rather because they couldn't? with name purges and all sorts of weird shenanigans going on, i bet something else was happening.
The ones who could not, were not allowed to or disqualified for some reason etc. are the outliers and definitely not the majority.
They didn’t want to vote for a woman, not voting = protest vote, didn’t want a minority, didn’t care, 1 vote doesn’t matter etc are the ones who handed it to drumpf
North Carolina voted for an impartial judge who honors her oath to uphold the constitution, so he is punishing the state. This is DESPOSTISM. End the regime NOW.
Trump is withholding further Aid because North Carolina's Governor, a Democrat, had nothing but good things to say about Biden sending help after the hurricane.
And when there was a disaster, and if Biden wasn't there the 2nd day? Fox and all the republicans were talking about him and trump denies north carolina for help
First day he signed EO to rescind every good thing Biden did even some that he started & Biden improved. Mega probably had them all printed out for him to sign.
"Stein also published a video on X recently, informing the public that the Trump administration had denied the state’s request for FEMA to honor a Biden-era commitment towards North Carolina."
Welcome. It was to help them. The problem is that maga was threatening fema workers. They were screaming, not enough, money and lied, saying there was no money cause it was given to illegals. Any celebrity that fundraised was told to fuck off. During the Eaton/Pacific Palisades fires, those magats
THIS STUPIDITY IS WHAT YOU GET WITH A REPUBLICAN VOTING BASE FILLED WITH REDNECKS, GRADESCHOOL DROPOUTS, AND DEGENERATE INBREEDERS RUNNING AROUND WAVING VOTING CARDS LIKE IT'S A GRAD SCHOOL DIPLOMA FROM PRINCETON....THERE NEEDS TO BE AN ANNUAL COMPETENCY EXAM TO BE ABLE TO VOTE.........😉👍
Imagine the field day that corporate news would have had if Biden refused any state FEMA relief. But I guess they want to believe Trump is saving money by totally ignoring the NC disaster.
Thing is, red state governors are going to be the ones to have to eat this.
Grass roots in states like NC will see the unmanaged disaster responses and they’ll wonder why their state didn’t have its shit together. Especially the conservatives that Trump convinced FEMA is bad.
I guess they will just have to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and wish each other thoughts and prayers...seems to work every time 60 percent of the time.
I know innocent people are being hurt and for that I am truly sad. It would be the same in my blue state. Everyone would suffer no matter who we voted for.
That's the whole plan... buy it for cheap, everybody move to Oklahoma and die... we're making "good" babies for slaves and you are a waste of resources.
IIRC, the money was already authorized by Congress so he is once again stealing control from Congress and the Republican’ts just lie there saying, “please sir, more sir..” Cowards every one of them.
When thinking about that Jefferson quote, the “you” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. It implies “you” as individual but can only mean “you” as overall citizenry It ignores context such as gerrymandering, electoral system, voter suppression, campaigns that lie, a complicit media etc
I agree. I guess he wouldn't have dreamed in his worst nightmares that things like Gerrymandering could ever happen or that a media is nearly completely fail to do their duty. The game is rigged for sure but maybe he has calculated that as well.?
Maybe. TJ probably expected a govt of good faith actors and mutual respect for checks & balances. Looking at, eg, Trump’s legal argument for deporting is based on unilaterally, retrospectively declaring the US at war w/ Venezuela. Congress abandoned its duty to be the one to declare war.
All these very sick disgusting creatures, disguised humans, in the white house right now must be removed and imprisoned for their crimes! This is intolerable and horrible behavior! Trump is not a president he's an evil demon from hell! His sycophants are lesser demons doing his bidding.
We really can’t be upset with what Trump is.
This is what this society promotes thus produces at scale.
The gnomes don’t know better and unless fed better information they will continue to see this aberration as a good thing.
Pain can hurt and it can alter so give them some altering pains.
The cruelty is the point w/this guy. I recently read an interview w/his sister in which she said, “Donald is cruel,” “has no principles,” and that he “got into UP bc he had somebody take the exams.” DJT fits the definition of a psychopath in this other key way: he does great harm w/out remorse.
You conveniently did not show why. It was a few counties that were denied because of the lack of substantial damage.
Bluesky let's people like you promote misinformation.
The complaints about Biden’s FEMA support in 2019 which denied that certain counties did not qualify perhaps encouraged some to vote for Trump. The Governor appealed and Trump apparently agreed w Biden to deny additional coverage. Even though debris, road destruction, and businesses were affected.
In principle, I agree, BUT million and billion dollar disasters can not instantly be drawn from state budgets without destroying a state. We need an adjustment period to accommodate disaster budgeting.
I would stake my life on it that not every single North Carolinian voted for Trump. Have compassion for those who didn't because they knew this would happen. They're seeing the nightmare they tried to prevent come true.
I'm in Ohio. I voted for Harris. I am well aware that a tornado could destroy my home any day. If it does, I will NOT get what *I* voted for. I will be suffering, while some of my fellow so-called progressives gloat with schadenfreude at me. Which will only double the cruelty of Trump screwing me.
He said that it’s up to the states to do their own clean up funded with their already strapped budgets. All those states in the south will regret not having FEMA as soon as their states are destroyed by the next natural disaster. It’s a shame they’ll suffer so badly,but they voted for this.
Not all NC residents (under voting age) or voters (Dems) voted for "this" so stop with your Calvinistic /Old Testament punishment firebomb everyone attitude, will you? What the hell don't people like you understand about majority votes?
@steviegrrrl.bsky.social I had a similar conversation recently with multiple CANADIANS who are so pissed they're abusing random USians & saying this is what we want. 1/3 didn't vote, many due to bipartisan support for the genocide in Gaza.
I post this frequently. I'm as disgusted at those who wouldn't vote or voted 3rd party as I am maga. If they're not fighting alongside with us now to restore democracy then they're no better than fascists in my mind.
They contributed, as are those who prefer to write strongly (or passive aggressively) worded letters and posts. I have no patience for doing less than EVERYTHING possible.
Normally, I’d agree.
But after unrelenting attacks by MAGAs, I echo my favorite line from the TV series BrainDead… “Why do WE always have to be the adults in the room?”
Unfortunately, we’re adults who have no way to punish misbehaving children.
So, we’ll just have to settle for the emotional satisfaction of one-upping them at their own game until we regain Congress in ‘26.
I can live with that.
He doesn’t want his money spent on such things. He gets nothing out of it. (That’s what happens when you run a country like a business and the guy in charge is a VERY BAD BUSINESSMAN.
I guess all the hillbillies in western NC who LIED about FEMA under Biden are now not getting the help they claimed they couldn't get from Biden's FEMA. Voting for Trump fulfilled their prophecy.
Excuse me? We are not hillbillies. We are Southerners. We had mountain folks who never come down and loaded pack mules with supplies. We took care of each other. North and South Carolina are Not all magaloons.
Fema did what they were allowed to do for a short time after the hurricane. A majority of the cleanup is still being done by the people who live there.
Presidential Election: Donald Trump (Republican) won Avery County with 75.8% of the vote, while Kamala Harris (Democrat) received 23.4%.
State House District 85: Dudley Greene (Republican) won with 78.3% of the vote. YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTE FOR. FUCK AVERY COUNTY NC REPUBLICAN IDIOTS.
Enjoy fuckers!!!! You ABSOLUTELY deserve your KARMA…BAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…fucking inbred trump lovers…like every fucking trump swallower out there
My mother in law lived in South Port. NICE area. Beautiful state I imagine but the majority-trump won at 51% of votes-of people are absolute die hard trumpers who vote against their own rights and any foreseeable positive future for themselves. Blows me away their absolute gullibility
Very true! I love Asheville and hope to possibly retire there (if ever possible now) but a great deal of us didn’t vote for this either and yet here we are, fucked thanks to surrounding ignorant fucks🤷🏻♀️
Google “North Carolina the snake voting”. It’s a horribly gerrymandered state so your bullshit “dunks” only make you look misinformed and childish. Ntm white ppl overwhelmingly did this to all of us so get your ppl together.
So trump didn’t win at 51% of the vote? You think I don’t know or understand gerrymandering and how bad it is in many states-hilarious But facts are the NAZI won NC at 51%. Of course white people did this. The whitties fuck everything up as history shows. They’re not my people. Love your enthusiasm
Just wait until mid-June/early July when the idiocy of DOGE hits the masses, and Americans realize they have little to no legislative recourse, especially now trump has NO oversight and a get-out-of-jail-free card 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Over 4.5 million voters were illegally removed from voting lists.
These purges are intensifying now using AI-driven systems like "Eagle AI," Trump's lawyer, Cleta Mitchell.
First, this has never been a litmus test for who gets help in the country. Secondly, there are many people who did not vote for Trump living in every state. I am shocked about this Arkansas issue, He turned them down and Sarah Huckabee Sanders is the governor!
Please stop with the “many people didn’t vote for this” mantra. It’s not helping. Too many did vote for this. We’re just along for the ride at this point. Now, what are we going to do?
It seems to me that Trump succeeds when dividing us. He he’s really good at it. When people make sweeping generalizations about those who are suffering and say it’s their own fault for voting for him, it just separates us further.
Not trying to make sweeping generalizations. I’m trying to get the understanding out that it doesn’t really matter who voted for him. Fact is, we need to stop blaming & figure out what to DO about the situation caused by too many votes for the🍊🤡💩show. I believe karma will handle the rest in time.
Maga and is so pissed about this but trump said its the dates problems not the federal government. If that the case states need to stop paying taxes to the Fed gov. simple as that. If we are not going to get anything for our taxes s why pay them.
If you voted for this you and your ilk should foot the bill. Only dumb asses would not have known this massive fuckery was greasing down the pike. And this ilk has the fucking balls to whine about it now. 🤮☠️
I believe he doesn’t even know WTF he is signing. He doesn’t care to know. He’s bored. He is uninterested. He is being spoon fed synopses of bills by one of his flunkies for political theater and making snap decisions to sign or not sign with,in many cases, peoples lives hanging in the balance.
Comments
FEMA normally pays 75% of the cost for clean up. In N.Carolina they are paying 90%. Trump denied paying 100% costs, but is continuing the 90% payment.

I'm glad someone finally did. Several of those states were initially refused FEMA aid. Someone took over and/or changed his mind.
