There’s no way that you can grasp the amount of damage left in the week of this hurricane. And there’s no way that you can comprehend the complete failure by our government to respond. There are Americans that have been left up in the mountains in the hills with no support. I guess it’s always been that way. The people outside of the cities don’t matter. The poor don’t matter. The blue-collar workers don’t matter. We are just one month away from an election and you see how much they really care.
I got to see firsthand how the ones answering the call are everyday regular Americans. I got to watch volunteers from @saveourallies do the impossible. They’re sleeping in cars. They’re delivering baby formula, food, and diapers. They checked on nearly 100 year-old men that have been surviving for a week on their own.
Don’t believe what you’ve seen on the news. Don’t believe what you’ve been told by “the officials”. The damage and loss of life is indescribable.
This hurricane has left a path of devastation that we haven’t seen since Katrina, with soaring water levels and powerful winds wreaking havoc across the region. As rescue efforts continue led by volunteers and non-profits, the sheer scale of the destruction is becoming clearer, with many rural residents displaced and facing an uncertain recovery.
Thank you!
Thank you to the volunteers at AirDrop.
Thank you to the volunteers from Samaritans Purse.
Thank you to the volunteers at the resupply centers.
Thank you to every single one of those men wielding chainsaws going up and down mountains trying to get trapped families out.
Thank you to all the volunteers bringing in their helicopters and being the best pilots they can possibly be.
Thank you to every person in the kitchens cooking meals for someone else.
Thank you to every church that opened their doors to show what Christians really can do.
I could go on for hours. So I’ll just leave you with this: Thank you for acting like Americans and good neighbors. When you’ve lost hope, always look to the helpers.
Just received this note from a SpaceX engineer helping on the ground in North Carolina.
@FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help!
“Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives.
The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough.”
It won’t be long until you legitimately say, “If you don’t have a digital delivery system for your discipleship strategy, you don’t have a discipleship strategy.” https://t.co/k21noTvqYZ via @cnieuwhof
remember tiktok before it was tiktok?
the rebrand happened in august 2018
5 years later, most people have probably forgotten about musically
it's NOT the same as twitter — because musically didn't have 15+ years of global brand recognition, that's true
but
looking back, did byte dance make the right move?
