Why did it take seven days for troops with helicopters, equipment, supplies, food, and water to be dispatched to southeast storm zones?

Now, with Helene cut into a new area and at the same time severed the 2 major highway (Yellow Circle) capable of handling all the trucks and traffic:

Representative Andrew Clyde of Georgia

Representative Michael Guest of Mississippi

Help. I’m 16 and just got spanked by both of my parents for taking the car. What do I do? I want to run off somewhere but I’m so scared that I’ll get spanked again. I’ve never gotten the paddle before and I’m still scared to sit

The rest of the landscape in not exactly conducive to move a lot of heavy traffic.

Representative Lauren Boebert of Colorado

Representative Eric Burlison of Missouri

How is it, in the USA, a country with 334 million people, the choice of President comes down to two aged men, one of whom is a liar as well as a criminal, one who appears to be on his way to dementia. Surely a democratic country can put up better?

Senator Deb Fischer of Nebraska

Representative Michelle Fischbach of Minnesota

They are listed above.

Trump is shot, tackled by SS agents, yet then stands, defiant, with fist high, and 52 hours later, walks into the Republican Convention to thunderous applause. Is there anything that can stop this man, who loves his country? Does he get your vote?

Representative Paul Gosar of Arizona

SO you are now the Disaster God. You know a storm is coming so you activate your assets and move them to their staging areas. You know the storm might change a bit but not as big a shift that has happened.

Representative Mike Collins of Georgia

Do you wear tights for warmth or to make your legs look better?

Representative Morgan Lutrell of Texas

What type of fish is best for fish tacos?

Representative Tom McClintock of California

Because of this, state and federal authorities had to figure out how to move the assets from their “normal” staging areas (blue area)

Representative Gus Bilirakis of Florida

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

What do you think of Vance using a clip of an embarrassed teenager from almost 20 years ago in an attempt to bully Kamala Harris?

Part of the problem you point out to the agitator is the recent battle in Congress that threatened to derail the necessary $20 billion FEMA funding. This funding should’ve been resolved months ago in preparation of the new fiscal year. But rather than do that, these politicians (if I could make my written words to drip with more sarcasm I would do it) decided that because FEMA would be wiped out under Project 2025. While the bill eventually passed, the following people voted against the bill:

Senator Pete Ricketts of Nebraska

Representative Bruce Westerman of Arkansas

Representative Tracey Mann of Kansas

Representative Troy Balderson of Ohio

Representative Rudy Yakym of Indiana

Representative Eli Crane of Arizona

You now need to figure out how you are going to turn them around, ship them a couple hundred miles and hope that you can find and secure the necessary staging grounds. The contacts they used to have built up over 4, 5, 6, 10 storm seasons are no longer useful so they need to find new ones.

Representative Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin

Representative Mike Ezell of Mississippi

Representative Cory Mills of Florida

Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio

Representative John Joyce of Pennsylvania

Representative Daniel Webster of Florida

Representative Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey

Representative Ralph Norman of South Carolina

Representative Laurel Lee of Florida

If you see your representative or Senator on this list and you are subject to Helene or Milton, know that they don’t give a crap about you. They care more about their power and subservience to their Most Exalted Grand PooBah and identifying and destroying people and things that are “woke” than they are to their fellow Americans that have been laid low by a storm that had never happened before. That $20 billion could have been put to use in projecting and gaming the response and, among the weather games would be what to do if another devastating storm follows right on its tails.

To get from TN into NC (or vice versa) you are forced onto the yellow route

While we really can’t do anything to stop or redirect storms (despite what Marjorie Taylor Greene spews), we can hold accountable the members of Congress who put their agenda ahead of the physical safety of their fellow Americans.

Which is almost 300 miles farther

I lived in NC for over 25 years. In all my time there, I saw more than my share of storms. The vast majority of them came up from the south and either skirted along the coast or bent inland and then run into the northern states. By the time they got to central NC, the storms were mostly petered out or, the swung back out to sea. In the past, Helene would have tracked like the black arrow I have crudely drew

I am sure that someone, who has a political axe to grind, would say “Why didn’t they have extingency plans??? See! See! See! They and their leaders are incompetent and vote for the other guy!!!”.

I know it doesn’t seem like a big distance but when you see power truck convoys a mile or so long, followed with the necessary support equipment and personnel, you realize this is something heavily planned.

Representative David Schweikert of Arizona

If you look back in history, you will see that storms usually hit in the same general area and follow the same general path. So the plans to respond, assemble, stage and deploy were all built around history.
