Three guesses and the first two don’t count.
What can help explain the apparent federal level indifference to the nightmare brought from Florida’s Big Bend up to Appalachia from hurricane Helene?
Meanwhile, @elonmusk – We are making a system update to allow all Starlinks in the affected areas to work, regardless of payment.
Whether it is malevolence or incompetence, the chaos of the past 3-1/2 years absolutely foreshadows what the next 4 will look like if Kamala is fauxlected.
Sadly, in about 2 years time, I will move to Ottawa, as my 2 executors live there. I love living in Western Canada, love living in Regina, but the reality is that it took my daughter 12 hours to get to Regina from Montreal in March.
I say this because east of Manitoba, they all think we, in the west, are a bunch of knuckle dragging, mouth breathers. Never mind that both AB and SK are “have” provinces, supporting Quebec and the Maritimes, they actively do not like us. I am sure if there was a major disaster in the west, that NO monies would be made from the federal chest.
My guess is the attitude of a lot Easterners towards Westerners is largely because of envy, just as the attitude of a lot of Canadians (and Europeans) towards the Yanks is largely because of envy.
BTW, I spent the first 20 odds years of my life in Toronto, then a few years in Northern Ontario, a couple of decades in Alberta and now live in Europe, FWIW.

I don’t know, Linda. The hatred easterners express for the west doesn’t seem to have any basis other than convention; it’s the done thing on tv, so you do it. It’s just that once they’ve expressed it, they feel that they have to feel it, and they basically just assume and assert anything that would justify the feeling. No doubt a lot of Easterners would envy the West if they had any idea who we were and what we were accomplishing, but they don’t. The West is to them what Quebec is to us, nothing the least bit real, just a media fetish.
It is hard to avoid the thought.
I think maybe O’Butthole is behind the malevolence, to serve the globalists.
Red State, Red State, Red State
On the surface it’s a plausible theory. But without large democrat turnouts in the big democrat strongholds of Richmond County (Augusta) in Georgia and Buncombe and Henderson counties (Asheville) in NC the Democrats cannot win those states. Both cities were hit extremely hard.
I have no doubt the Dems will try to find a way to cheat in these states, and use the storm to justify it, but these are both huge Democrat voting areas.
ahem.
heeeeey there wind and rain victims, how many of you voted FOR the politishuns who now crap on you when you are covered in mud?
see how that werks? hmmm? same goes for Canaduh.
1.
2.
3. Republican states?
I was listening to one reporter talking about showing up to a washed out bridge in either N Carolina or Tennessee and a guy pulled up in a bulldozer and started making a berm where 2,000 feet of bridge had washed away. Several other bull dozers later joined and the road was rebuilt. You don’t need the Feds, just several rednecks and some heavy duty equipment.
Democrat politicians and DAs would prosecute said individuals for not having proper permits.
There is a story, with several videos, of a man that showed up with a helicopter. His son was co-pilot. They saved a old lady and the son had to remain with the husband (probably a small helo) The local fire chief told him if he went back for the old man, he would arrest him. This was his turf. The man went back for his son but had to leave the old man. This fire chief passed up the opportunity to have a free helo doing recce for him or saving people in grave danger.
I was in this area exactly a year ago, visiting Biltmore. Beautiful region. Damn shame. And yes, the Biden/Harris regime does not give a rat’s behind about people who won’t vote for them. Like most commies, they would gladly exterminate us all, if given the opportunity.
Joe can’t go out in public and Camels is stuck in acting class.
In a state of emergency there is justification for extending vote counts.
Long enough to get the count right.
Just saying
