(Oct. 9, 2024) — At approximately 5:37 p.m. EDT, Joe Biden gave a scheduled address from the White House to update the public on Hurricane Milton, which is quickly heading toward Florida’s west coast and expected to make its way across the state in the coming days.
It was Biden’s second occasion to speak about the storm Wednesday, the first as he and 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris received a briefing on the impending storm.
Milton has caused a number of tornadoes, Biden said Wednesday evening. “Thousands” of federal personnel are positioned to assist victims, Biden said, including FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell.
During his three-minute evening remarks, Biden expressed frustration and accused 2024 Republican presidential nominee and 45th president Donald J. Trump of “spreading disinformation” about the government’s response to Hurricane Helene, which hit Florida and points north just under two weeks ago.
According to CNN on Monday, “Former President Donald Trump has delivered a barrage of lies and distortions about the federal response to Hurricane Helene. While various misinformation about the response has spread widely without Trump’s involvement, the Republican presidential nominee has been one of the country’s leading deceivers on the subject. Over a span of six days, in public comments and social media posts, Trump has used his powerful megaphone to endorse or invent false or unsubstantiated claims.”
“Western North Carolina, and the whole state, for that matter, has been totally and incompetently mismanaged by Harris/Biden,” Trump wrote on TruthSocial Wednesday morning. “They can’t get anything done properly, but I will make up for lost time, and do it right, when I get there. Hold on, and vote these horrible ‘public servants’ out of office. They are incapable of doing the job, and Kamala is even, WORSE THAN BIDEN. MAGA2024!”
On Tuesday, he claimed Biden/Harris had provided “the worst response to a storm or hurricane disaster in U.S. history — with another one coming. Our country cannot withstand four more years of these incompetent fools. The whole world is laughing at us!!!”
Biden praised Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s handling of the dual crises and said the two have been in regular contact but decried narratives such as “property being confiscated” and that a limit of $750 has been offered to victims of Helene, who in hard-hit western North Carolina continue to live without homes, power, infrastructure, means of making a living, and other resources.
The Biden-Harris regime has been sharply criticized for its response, particularly in the mountainous North Carolina region of Swannanoa and Asheville, which was completely destroyed by the hurricane’s residual flood waters.
More than 230 are confirmed dead, and Milton is expected to be at least as dangerous, sources reported.
Individuals other than Trump have claimed their efforts to bring supplies and assistance to North Carolina victims was thwarted by FEMA agents deployed to the area and that the town of Chimney Rock was being subjected to “land grabs” to facilitate the federal government’s access to lithium.
On October 4, FEMA launched a dedicated webpage purporting to “respond to rumors and confirm the facts related to Hurricane Helene response and recovery.”
During his evening remarks, Biden denied the claim that FEMA has used its funds to support illegal aliens, often referred to as “migrants,” seemingly contradicting White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s 2022 statement that “FEMA regional administrators have been meeting with city officials on site to coordinate to coordinate available federal support from FEMA and other federal agencies. Funding is also available through FEMA’s emergency food and shelter program to eligible local governments and non-for-profit organizations upon request to support humanitarian relief for migrants.”
In the runup to Milton’s arrival, residents in the Tampa area were urged to evacuate due to the storm’s expected deadly force. The hurricane was downgraded from a “Category 5” to a “Category 3,” but forecasters have warned it will still be devastating to Florida.
I personally have dealt with FEMA bureaucratic hoops and it is not a pretty picture. I would rather walk on glass rather than ask for a dime from FEMA. FEMA should be disbanded and federal funds should be automatically transferred to the affected state in advance of known impending disasters such as hurricanes. FEMA is the bane to local disaster relief.
Disinformation? That’s rich! Here’s something that isn’t disinformation 8 USC 1324, they’re violating this every day!
Those who are putting up illegal aliens in hotels, provide debit cards, allow to obtain drivers licenses or ID cards are violating 8 USC 1324 but one bets if a search was done to see how many have been charged with 8 USC 1324 it would be less than a handful.
The govt. cares more about foreigners than US citizens and that’s a fact!
Agreed.
Kamala Harris is not even a STATUTORY US citizen. Therefore, she cannot possibly be a natural born Citizen. A natural born Citizen is a person born in one of the 50 states to two (2) parents who already are US citizens.What does this mean? It means that currently, Harris is a double usurper:
1. US Senate.
2. Vice President of the USA.
Harris, if elected, is destined for being a triple usurper by being allowed to run for the President of the USA/Commander-in-Chief of the USA military.
Her parents were here in the USA on a student visa, which meant that they had zero intentions of staying to immigrate. That means that these parents were not subject to the (complete) political jurisdiction thereof as cited by the 14th Amendment and codified under the Selective Service Act.

Based on the plain text of both The Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the 14th Amendment it is curious as to how she was conferred US Citizenship, interestingly no asks her about foreign citizenship.
Every new usurper as president or V.P. makes the Uni-Party happy because they see that as protection against their ever being charged with the treason they committed when they did nothing to stop Obama from being sworn-in. It was the usurper Obama who told Biden to pick the usurper Kamala Harris as Biden’s V.P..
Right now, both parties see only one person who might as president reveal the truth about Barry, and the treason committed by Obama and both parties. The uniparty wants anyone but Trump as president, and they want assurance Trump can never be President again……They are protecting themselves from the possibility of being charged with big-time treason which can have a penalty of hanging, and has no statute of limitation. That treason is giving America’s government and her military to her enemies via the fraud Barack Hussein Obama. All of this is and has been obvious for years, but nothing is done about it mostly. because doing something is the job of the complicit who are only interested in protecting Obama, to protect themselves…….
That is reason number one why Trump and America are in great danger……………
Pray and vote for Trump 2024….
