The Truth About the Federal Response to Western North Carolina | 10/30/24
Description
First, we begin with a roundup of down-ballot news throughout the country. We continue to lack leadership on any of these issues and races outside Florida. Next, we’re joined by Blaze News investigative reporter Steve Baker for a riveting update on the recovery operations in Western North Carolina. Baker has been on the ground with private veteran groups for two weeks and has formulated a clear vision of what is and isn’t going on there. We cut through some of the misinformation on both sides to conclude that yes, the state Guard, FEMA, and the military have been on the ground, but in shockingly low numbers given the magnitude of the tragedy. He explains how during every other equivalent domestic and even foreign natural disaster, we have used a much larger military presence. He also observes how a well-organized cadre of former special operators have changed the way we respond and are building plans and infrastructure for the future. Finally, he discusses his personal fight with the FBI, as he faces prison time for simply reporting from the Capitol on January 6. We discuss the need for Trump to win and pardon nonviolent offenders but also the need for our side to prepare for resistance from terribly misinformed Republicans.
