Our Asheville Mayor is useless. We've had major issues before Helene. Which she has never addressed or taken care of. She will not take care of this either in her Mansion up on the hill.
The story about not being able to get in is a Lie! My son drove from Spruce pine into Asheville. My daughter left Asheville to go to Charlotte and back with supplies. Many ordinary citizens have collaborated to bring in supllies and help. They are doing more than the state is.
I have a relative who lives in Asheville and left this morning, by car lol. I am still baffled by that after hearing on the news that there is no way in or out.
Kudos to this mayor for not taking the negative bait from this sorry reporter. 💯 if trucks can’t get in that’s going to slow supplies coming in. I’m pretty sure the weight limit on a helicopter can’t match a truck. #PrayAndGive
Right, but there should have been supplies already in the area. The fact we have to fly these things in instead of having them in a fortified, disaster free structure is alarming
@@francismarion6400 And Fort Bragg ( Fort Liberty) and Fort Campbell has large CH-47 Chinook helicopters that can carry massive amounts of supplies, but that's a federal call...and of course being a left wing democrat , she's not going to throw the Vegatable In Chief under the bus.
Just unbelievable...the comment section that is. How does a huge helicopter land in a debris field with feet of mud and get the supplies anywhere to unload for distribution? I hurricane prep, I live five miles from the Gulf of Mexico. I'm prepared and I do know that it's wise to have at least a week of supplies. Sometimes it's that long before anything can happen for relief efforts... This isn't just one town it's hundreds of miles from South Florida up the Florida Coast and inland rivers, Georgia, SC, NC, TN, and beyond at less impact. The first priority is search and rescue, that is still going on people! I guarantee you that the folks that don't live in towns will be trying to get down from the mountain when things dry out enough. You can't land a helicopter in those mountains. My parents are from Pickens County SC, I spent most summers of my childhood up there. Stayed and traveled up in those mountains it's forest, mud, boulders, cliffs, rock slides and mudslides too. They may need to drop supplies in and extract people still in the mountains with helicopters with baskets like the Coast Guard does here for water rescues. I'm sixty years old, I've been through that many hurricane seasons in Florida, this is unprecedented and the most heart wrenching toll I've seen.
AND a new MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL, & CITY MANAGER. This bunch is more concerned with WOKEISM, LGBTQ, & REPARATIONS than planning & pre-staging for destructive floods. BUT that's radical Democrat leftist socialism for u. Sad but true. Vote WISELY.

The National Guard needs to get there right now they have the vehicles and equipment necessary to get the supplies there before more people die for no reason
People aren't going to die, neighbors are helping neighbors, there are a lot of resources just laying around, these people aren't used to gathering up all these resources. I seen video of stocked stores and such. I lived in Florida and lived through 5 major hurricanes. After the first two you figure out very quickly where to find what you need. If you find a full can of gas lying about, you take it. I don't mean steal from your neighbors, but stuff like that gets washed up on dry ground. But these people will see something just laying about won't use it because it doesn't belong to them. Our neighborhood alway held neighborhood picnics. Anyone that had food, fuel stuff like that the first priority was to make sure everyone had a meal every day. Nobody went without food. But when you get hit by a hurricane every other year, its second nature to go into survival mood for a while
Did you not see the tan LMTVs with the guys in OPCs? That wasn't the local MVPA chapter playing dress up. What I want to know is, where are the Blackhawks and Chinooks?
This will take months if not years to rebuild. It's spread over 20 counties not just Asheville. Please don't just single our Asheville. Roads are closed everywhere.
I live in NC. The state's response has been organized, massive and rapid. The NC National Guard are already there airlifting supplies and doing search and rescue. The D of Transportation is already there clearing and opening roads, state emergency management is there en masse. Nobody's asleep at the wheel here, folks. It's just a massive catastrophe in a VERY challenging terrain. Full recovery will take years.
Asheville, North Carolina is Soo Amazingly BEAUTIFUL, as I travel NORTH to See or Visualize LIFE as The "SMOKEY MOUNTAINS" Open UP, is not something One can EXPLAIN- SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL-GOD help these People in The MOUNTAINS.
Asheville is a radical mecca. The most liberal, hate America City in America.. IT IS NOT what it was 20 years ago. This Mayor wouldn't allow an American flag in her office.. Now wants my $$$. No way lady.
When you never experience this before it’s a learning experience, we in Florida have gone through so many hurricanes that now we kinda know what to do. I buy enough water and food before a hurricane season to last me a month or so just in case. Then after the season we use it up and then restock before the next season starts.
That's good, everyone everywhere should have some basic preps. What you're not addressing is that many of these homes were completely destroyed so anything they may have prepped is also gone. It's never a guarantee.
yeah, but these People have not ever experienced anything like these Floods. I live in Texas and have seen very few massive Floods, like they experienced in those Mountains. You and I live in relatively flat areas and the Waters while bad, are nothing like what they experienced. My prayers go out to them, and I would go up there and help, but I am afraid they need a lot more help than I could bring them. God rest the Dead.
Having our City destroyed by a flood decades ago I can tell you there is no quick fix and help will keep coming in. The first two weeks are difficult. Hope these people get all the help they need ASAP.
@@donwyoming1936 no, they most certainly did not. We don’t get biblical level disasters from hurricanes in the mountains of NC. No one was told to evacuate, they were told to prepare for flooding of local rivers and streams. I pray you never know what this feels like and if you do, no one casts their judgement on you.
Yes, Claytor Lake looks a little bit like Lake Lure. And Bisset Park in Radford got some flooding damage but I haven't seen it yet. I guess the New River is starting to crest from the storm that hit Friday . Prayers to those still in danger. 🙏
@@marcg.3830Biden was on his BEACH, taking SELFIES with beachcomers, Kamala Harris was all way across country doing FUND RAISERS FOR HERSELF, and Biden's FEMA gal was nowhere to b heard from as was Cooper. What happened to PRE-STAGING FEMA EQUIPMENT & SUPPLIES like folks with common sense do?
People don't understand how long it takes to receive help when a disaster like this happens because they've never lived through it. We are a spoiled country. We think hundreds of helicopters are going to drop supplies or something. Doesn't work like that. It'll take years for this town to get back on its feet and they need all the help they can get (as well as all the surrounding areas hit too that are not on national tv).
Maybe if your kids and dogs were starving you would re-think your post! maybe if you had no water for 5 days you would re-think your post, maybe if you couldn't get your son's seizure medication you would re-think your post.!!! Most likely sitting watch CNN in a comfortable living room!
@@joemancurreri6635 Dude, these things take time whether my family, or my pets are starving, need meds, etc. When you have thousands upon thousands of folks needing immediate attention, people cannot expect an ambulance to be there in 10 minutes. I don't know why you're so upset about my post.
hundreds of Helicopters absolutely should be flying 24/7. That is how you get food/meds/blankets/rescuers/etc into the areas affected, in times like this. But, they are not. Why is that?
@@d8bn because you have no clue what you are talking about. The Helicopters should be flying 24/7 , but they are not. Several days in, and still very little of that level of response, while Civilians with private Helis are being turned-away. BTW , comments are being scrubbed, when this inconvenient truth is being pointed-out.
@@markgreiser464 Mark, I don't disagree with you at all. I agree there should be hundreds of helicopters dropping supplies. What I am saying is, that isn't going to happen one day after a disaster. Recovery plans take effort and coordination to be successful. The success part depends on how organized the local governments are in coordinating their home town efforts. Funding and supplies are available. It's the organization part...takes time and even more time if folks don't know what they are doing.
The community has been a gift from God. We got hit hard with a tree falling on our cars and knocking out power sense the storm, but the churches and good ol boys have been absolutely amazing. We love you all.
Shit takes time… i mean, amazon it! Or Instagram something? . People are nuts to blame others for this act of God.all roads leading in or out are very compromised. This instant demand mind is insane.
Dood the issue is NO WATER, or food since Friday and the stink starting from all the rotting dead bodies caught up in the trees I suppose. They’re getting hangry.
@@Uncaged_cricket I completely agree. These people are insane. They think the government is gonna swoop in like an angel and save it all in one day. 🤦♀️
I was in Callaway Florida when Hurricane Michael hit in my apartment and we went 31 days without power. It looked like the area was bombed. It was total devastation. I totally understand what these people are going thru!
The difference is that NC is dysfunctional.. Gov. Cooper is a worthless hack. There is no real leadership now in NC or the US . biden is doing a "fly over" tomorrow.. so what.. NO food, no water, dogs dying, No meds, and kamala was dancing in CA., as we suffer. Asheville Mayor is a radical .. she would not allow an American Flag in her office - it was offensive!
The other day when I was leaving target, the security sensors at the door went off. What did I do? Stop, go thru my things to figure it out. That’s what innocent people do.
Why are they only interviewing Asheville's mayor? There are dozens of towns affected by this devastation! Swananoa, Chimney Rock, Spruce Pine, Burnsville, Marion, Morganton, Lenoir, Old Fort, Newland, and many more have less resources!
Last year during the Maui fires, it was the local residents that banded together first. It looks like it's going to be that way again until FEMA gets everything set up.
They are high up in the mountains. Tons of resources are being sent and already there. They've been focusing on search and rescue first and foremost. Lots of precarious mountain roads to get there with bridges out. This was apocalyptic.
Exactly! Where's Oprah and the Rock? Our country gave 2.5 Billion last week to a foreign country. Send $ and High water vehicles. It's Katrina allover again😢.
This newscaster is clueless. I have been watching videos and it is impossible, in many areas, to get in supplies, even with helicopters. Most roads and bridges are washed out, whole towns are still under water, and many power lines are still down, making it a safety hazard for helicopters. As the flood waters recede, then there will be more places for helicopters to land, bringing supplies. This is the mountains and there aren't many flat places for helicopters to land and right now most of the flat areas are either under water or covered with debris. I'm sure helicopters are already in route to dropping in supplies. Not only that but many places in the mountains are difficult to access even in the best of conditions. Finally, the devastation covers about every town in Western NC as well as many towns in neighboring states. The devastation is so great that NC resources are not enough. Help will have to come from multiple states, and it will take time for that help to arrive. There is no way anyone could have prepared enough for a storm this catastrophic.
I am assuming that the state declared a state of emergency and that the National Guard and FEMA have been spun up? No mention of any of this in this interview.
Mayorkas already said FEMA didn't have the Money. It was spent coddling the Illegals Biden has been flooding the Nation with, for the last 3+ years. So, when the real Floods came and US Citizens needed the funds we paid for with our Taxes, they simply weren't there.
It's now Thursday night October 3, 2024. Asheville is in a desperate situation. Many parts of the city and county are on a central water supply system that has suffered major damage. There is no running water and the prediction is for many areas to not see running water for THREE months. We have 270,000 people here and we cannot live into the winter months without running water. Many people are making trips to get water from streams and creeks to flush their toilets. Don't know what we will do when these sources freeze. Please help. Contact politicians in your area to see if they're who they say they are and are willing to do something about this. Follow up on your contacts with them. Hold their feet to the fire, as the expression goes. It's time for politicians to step up and make things happen. Help us.
Don't trust the government officials. Trust God and the good citizens from other parts of the state and country. The government officials will drag their feet and use this crisis as a political weapon.
He's just like all the rest of new castor's now! We don't have news journalist or investigative reporters anymore; just bobble-heads espousing what they are told to say.
This is soooo terrible and i'm saddened by the details. I live here in Knoxville and grateful to not be in this situation, AMEN. Praying for our neighbors up the road in Newport, Asheville,NC, GA, AND FLA.🙏🏼
I lived in Houston and we experienced the same frustrations for months and years after Alison, Ike, and Harvey. It’s one day at a time and baby steps will turn into STRIDES..
I have lived in Houston over 60 years. I have seldom seen anything close to this in Texas, compared to what these People are going through. We live in a Coastal Flood Plain and the water has many outlets to the Sea. These People have no such luxury.
People that don't understand about logistics and the coordination that it takes to move assets into areas. It's not like we have a plan for every possible scenario. That's literally impossible.
@@michaeldeierhoi4096Starlinks have been brought in. Many people from other states have bought up whatever they can find and getting them in. Musk sent many in and then after Trump visited GA he asked Musk for more for that area. It's interesting to me how little this mayor seems to know. Almost like she's purposely been left out of the loop.
Some of these places have taken hundreds of years to get to what WE PEOPLE WHO LIVE AND AROUND HERE and it will take probably a hundred years to ever be close to normal again but if you big city's people don t know you ever set of your front porch at night and you hear nothing but the crickets cicadas and your troubles seem far away or in another world the only place close is setting on a bank and your suppose to be fishing but you don,t care cause times stopped well it's the same in our little ol country hollars and our little towns PRAYERS FOR THEM
Lets see MAGA voted down the Infrastructure bill, they voted down resupplying our emergency stockpiles after covid and voted to cut FEMA and other emergency services and now you wonder why there is nothing to give these people, you are definitely a MAGA supporter without a doubt.
Sucks... On the other hand, how many people out there are aware that Asheville has a jail where the population consists of 40% being local homeless or folks passing thru? My Asheville experience was horrible. Came to the area for a show, decided to go spend some money downtown, parked my van and crashed because i was tired and it was unsafe for me to drive.. FF to 90 days later.. My dog was euthanized. My van was crushed. Everything i owned in the world was gone, i WALKED out of town with a donated sweater.. I not only lost my best friend, but 1000s in materials that i use to make a living so im not another bum begging on the street. So, with that knowledge.....
My earlier comment about the mayor was uncalled for, and I apologize. I guess I’m just frustrated that a whole water system can just readily fail. People pay a lot of money to reside in Asheville. And there are a lot of elderly folk that live there. I guess I just expect nothing but the best for the people
That story about bot being able to get into asheville and being cut off is BS and Completely false information. My daughter easily left Asheville to get supplies in Charlotte and go back. If she can get supplies, why can't the city contract a few dozen tractor trailers to bring in supplies from Charlotte? more. Normal citizens are organizing better and faster to bring in supplies and help.
@12juslookin - maybe some day you’ll find your home completely wiped out, and you’re on day 8 without dry clothes, food and water, and it doesn’t seem like anyone is going to find you to help you in time. Let that sink in.
The response from state and local government is a disgrace the people helping each other is greatness personified. The difference in Florida and North Carolina helping their people is a disgrace. Don’t be angry with me.
DEI Democrat mayor that is in over her head unfortunately. She did her best to shine a good light on the governor and president. The newscaster has grey hair but a forth grader would ask better questions
Even now he is at work. In accidents and calamities by sea and by land, in great conflagrations, in fierce tornadoes and terrific hailstorms, in tempests, floods, cyclones, tidal waves, and earthquakes, in every place and in a thousand forms, Satan is exercising his power. He sweeps away the ripening harvest, and famine and distress follow. He imparts to the air a deadly taint, and thousands perish by the pestilence. These visitations are to become more and more frequent and disastrous. Destruction will be upon both man and beast. Great Controversy 589.3 Amen!
My prayers to you all. I’m in Rockdale county Georgia and dealing with an environmental emergency and stressed. We have been told to shelter in place and stay inside. I’m so sorry you all are dealing with this.
Word of advice. Don’t wait for FEMA. They don’t really come. Personal experience. They don’t want to help, with all the dollars they receive. They wait and drag it out. Local people have to do it to get it started. The rest will come. It helps to have a good governor- like RD- he has it on the ready.
I’m glad Ukraine got 5.5 billion dollars this week. Maybe people in North Carolina can stop complaining and donate to Ukraine? They need the money more than NC.
when I lived in Florida, I lived through 5 major hurricanes. On average it takes a few day for relief crews and supplies to reach people in need. I understand the mayor's concern about the time it's taking for relief to show up. I'm surprised they're getting supplies and relief so quickly. But Asheville was never hit like this in anyones lifetime, so all this wide spread devastation is new to them. They're scared, nervous, and shaken, but once the full blown force of the relief corps reaches her, that relief will continue until everything is cleaned up and Asheville can start to rebuild. She showing her great strength, the town is lucky to have a mayor so strong.
Just stop it. Politicizing this disaster is adding stress to already stressed people. Just because Trump wouldn’t give aid to regions he considered liberal does not mean that is happening now. It’s like the little kid who hit his brother and to try to get away with it, runs crying to mommy, “He hit me.”
That’s a question worth asking…also, you dint know if that was the leading question because the video was clearly edited and the woman wasn’t even introduced
We've visited Asheville many times, we love the area, the people, it is a very special place. What we are seeing there sickens me, it is horrifying. Seeing what happened on a TV screen or computer monitor can't come close to understanding what it is to be in the midst of all the destruction. Prayers for all those who have suffered this awful tragedy. My family will donate all that we can to help.
Imagine a wall of water coming toward people in an instant. How many do you think survive that? Those who do survive that initial flood or water & mud have nothing left to sustain that life. As someone who lives in NC with friends in those areas helping, I'm going to tell you.. It's extremely heartbreaking & something a lot of people will never get over seeing, smelling, & feeling! The things I have been told about.. It's beyond biblical. It's a total tragedy!
this news people are really stupid how do you suppose to have power back on all those people when it is hard to get to places, you have to remove debris, dirt, land, water, all kind of shit before you can have repair crew there, install new electric poles, etc, this is mass. it is been only few days, this is going to take months if not a years.
The flooding is killer here plus the trees blown down taking the power with it. Shelters/housing, food, facilities, washers, dryers, showers, clothes, money, or debt forgiveness, to get people eventually back on their feet in this mountain community. They've lost everything to live right now.
They gave a stand down to ppl trying to get help to people! Its crazy and ppl are still dying. Wake up MEDIA!! 100's ++++ Gone forever!!! Help these people that have survived this!!
😮Completely false information. My daughter easily left Asheville to get supplies in Charlotte and go back. If she can get supplies, why can't the city contract a few dozen tractor trailers to bring in supplies from Charlotte? Power generators, inverters, portable grills or. Charcoal for cooking. They can do so much more. Normal citizens are organizing better and faster to bring in supplies and help
No..actually it's been overun with out of state weridos that pretty much screwed up this once peaceful mountain tourist town. That said the recovery will need a tremedous amount of resources not just for Ashville but most of western NC.
I hope this horrible catastrophe teaches people an important lesson. Follow FEMA's recommendations on what you should keep in your home for emergencies. People that have no food and it hasn't been a week? Asheville can also experienced horrible winter weather . I suggest people get over the notion that being prepared is bad, people are always making fun of preppers. Well who's laughing now it's definitely not the preppers. Instead of waiting on the government to help you help yourself and help your family. Keep enough water and food on hand for at least a month, don't forget about any prescriptions you might need. If everyone's a little more proactive, that way emergency responders can really go after the people most in need that's the people that are trapped with their homes destroyed ❤️ the governor and the mayor should both have satellite phones to stay in contact. She claims that they're prepared for hard stuff but I don't think so .
These situations are why the people in the mountains prep. It's taught from generation to generation that you have to prepare for events. This is some of the most beautiful places in the country. The things that make it so beautiful are now what has taken these beautiful town's out.
We realize communication is limited and most people won’t see this on the Internet. But for those who have Internet service, please let friends and family in our area know that Sugar Grove is operating a laundry trailer in the church parking lot and people can come between 9 AM and 4 PM and wash and dry their laundry- free of charge - until further notice.

I seen video of stocked stores and such. I lived in Florida and lived through 5 major hurricanes. After the first two you figure out very quickly where to find what you need. If you find a full can of gas lying about, you take it. I don't mean steal from your neighbors, but stuff like that gets washed up on dry ground. But these people will see something just laying about won't use it because it doesn't belong to them. Our neighborhood alway held neighborhood picnics. Anyone that had food, fuel stuff like that the first priority was to make sure everyone had a meal every day. Nobody went without food. But when you get hit by a hurricane every other year, its second nature to go into survival mood for a while
Did you not see the tan LMTVs with the guys in OPCs? That wasn't the local MVPA chapter playing dress up. What I want to know is, where are the Blackhawks and Chinooks?
Many just sent to Kuwait.
@@erikkunkle9574Middle East and Ukraine. Taxpayers are last in line.
This will take months if not years to rebuild. It's spread over 20 counties not just Asheville. Please don't just single our Asheville. Roads are closed everywhere.
I live in NC. The state's response has been organized, massive and rapid. The NC National Guard are already there airlifting supplies and doing search and rescue. The D of Transportation is already there clearing and opening roads, state emergency management is there en masse. Nobody's asleep at the wheel here, folks. It's just a massive catastrophe in a VERY challenging terrain. Full recovery will take years.
"Are things starting to get better" good God. You news commentator/journalist's what planet do you guys live on?
Asheville, North Carolina is Soo Amazingly BEAUTIFUL, as I travel NORTH to See or Visualize LIFE as The "SMOKEY MOUNTAINS" Open UP, is not something One can EXPLAIN- SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL-GOD help these People in The MOUNTAINS.
Not anymore
Asheville is a radical mecca. The most liberal, hate America City in America.. IT IS NOT what it was 20 years ago. This Mayor wouldn't allow an American flag in her office.. Now wants my $$$. No way lady.
Prayers for Asheville
Yeah. But Asheville needed them long ago. It's been the San Francisco of the East.
Asheville is a radical hell.. You will never see an American Flag in Asheville.. It's a hate America City, and has been for the last 15 years.
When you never experience this before it’s a learning experience, we in Florida have gone through so many hurricanes that now we kinda know what to do. I buy enough water and food before a hurricane season to last me a month or so just in case. Then after the season we use it up and then restock before the next season starts.
👍
Smart. There was time to prepare. It seems many didn't.
We had a water outage crisis a few years ago. The city has experienced this!!
That's good, everyone everywhere should have some basic preps. What you're not addressing is that many of these homes were completely destroyed so anything they may have prepped is also gone. It's never a guarantee.
yeah, but these People have not ever experienced anything like these Floods. I live in Texas and have seen very few massive Floods, like they experienced in those Mountains. You and I live in relatively flat areas and the Waters while bad, are nothing like what they experienced. My prayers go out to them, and I would go up there and help, but I am afraid they need a lot more help than I could bring them. God rest the Dead.
it's not just Asheville NC it's ALL of Western NC ! It's catastrophic !
Having our City destroyed by a flood decades ago I can tell you there is no quick fix and help will keep coming in. The first two weeks are difficult. Hope these people get all the help they need ASAP.
“Are things starting to get better?” Really? No, no they’re not. 🤯🥵
These people are acting like all repairs is going to happen instantly.
They ignored warnings to prepare. Thet ignored warning to leave. Now they're paying the price.

@@donwyoming1936 no, they most certainly did not. We don’t get biblical level disasters from hurricanes in the mountains of NC.

People don't understand how long it takes to receive help when a disaster like this happens because they've never lived through it. We are a spoiled country. We think hundreds of helicopters are going to drop supplies or something. Doesn't work like that. It'll take years for this town to get back on its feet and they need all the help they can get (as well as all the surrounding areas hit too that are not on national tv).
Maybe if your kids and dogs were starving you would re-think your post! maybe if you had no water for 5 days you would re-think your post, maybe if you couldn't get your son's seizure medication you would re-think your post.!!! Most likely sitting watch CNN in a comfortable living room!
@@joemancurreri6635 Dude, these things take time whether my family, or my pets are starving, need meds, etc. When you have thousands upon thousands of folks needing immediate attention, people cannot expect an ambulance to be there in 10 minutes. I don't know why you're so upset about my post.
hundreds of Helicopters absolutely should be flying 24/7. That is how you get food/meds/blankets/rescuers/etc into the areas affected, in times like this. But, they are not. Why is that?
@@d8bn because you have no clue what you are talking about. The Helicopters should be flying 24/7 , but they are not. Several days in, and still very little of that level of response, while Civilians with private Helis are being turned-away. BTW , comments are being scrubbed, when this inconvenient truth is being pointed-out.
@@markgreiser464 Mark, I don't disagree with you at all. I agree there should be hundreds of helicopters dropping supplies. What I am saying is, that isn't going to happen one day after a disaster. Recovery plans take effort and coordination to be successful. The success part depends on how organized the local governments are in coordinating their home town efforts. Funding and supplies are available. It's the organization part...takes time and even more time if folks don't know what they are doing.
The community has been a gift from God. We got hit hard with a tree falling on our cars and knocking out power sense the storm, but the churches and good ol boys have been absolutely amazing. We love you all.
I’m not hearing anything about all the pets and livestock in dire need of rescue and feed!!!
Shit takes time… i mean, amazon it! Or Instagram something? . People are nuts to blame others for this act of God.all roads leading in or out are very compromised. This instant demand mind is insane.

I was in Callaway Florida when Hurricane Michael hit in my apartment and we went 31 days without power. It looked like the area was bombed. It was total devastation. I totally understand what these people are going thru!
The difference is that NC is dysfunctional.. Gov. Cooper is a worthless hack. There is no real leadership now in NC or the US . biden is doing a "fly over" tomorrow.. so what.. NO food, no water, dogs dying, No meds, and kamala was dancing in CA., as we suffer. Asheville Mayor is a radical .. she would not allow an American Flag in her office - it was offensive!
The other day when I was leaving target, the security sensors at the door went off. What did I do? Stop, go thru my things to figure it out. That’s what innocent people do.
Why are they only interviewing Asheville's mayor? There are dozens of towns affected by this devastation! Swananoa, Chimney Rock, Spruce Pine, Burnsville, Marion, Morganton, Lenoir, Old Fort, Newland, and many more have less resources!
Aloha. 40 people died in this county alone.
Ashville is the biggest city in the area right? They know there's other places. But they're going to probably make that the hub then spread out
But the really bad damage was when an old dam broke in Asheville, that’s what all of the dramatic photos and video is chiefly from.
@@Gob-is3sy are you here? Because I am and I promise, Asheville is NOT unique.
@@adamyoung480 The number of people who have died is much higher than 40 in these small mountain towns.

What's taking so long? LMAO. Dude look at the pictures.
Insurance companies normally don't cover flood damage. This'll be a financial battle.
I bet the lawyers survived.
More money for Ukraine!!
Last year during the Maui fires, it was the local residents that banded together first. It looks like it's going to be that way again until FEMA gets everything set up.
They are high up in the mountains. Tons of resources are being sent and already there. They've been focusing on search and rescue first and foremost. Lots of precarious mountain roads to get there with bridges out. This was apocalyptic.
They are. The prob is no water or any food. They’re stuck up in that area. No one is going out or coming in.
Exactly! Where's Oprah and the Rock?
Our country gave 2.5 Billion last week to a foreign country. Send $ and High water vehicles. It's Katrina allover again😢.
@@rea8755 they sent 160 Highwater vehicles two days ago. Thanks Governor Cooper
@@rea8755 people don't understand the utter and vast devastation of multiple counties that already have difficult roads because it's the mountains!
This newscaster is clueless. I have been watching videos and it is impossible, in many areas, to get in supplies, even with helicopters. Most roads and bridges are washed out, whole towns are still under water, and many power lines are still down, making it a safety hazard for helicopters. As the flood waters recede, then there will be more places for helicopters to land, bringing supplies. This is the mountains and there aren't many flat places for helicopters to land and right now most of the flat areas are either under water or covered with debris. I'm sure helicopters are already in route to dropping in supplies. Not only that but many places in the mountains are difficult to access even in the best of conditions. Finally, the devastation covers about every town in Western NC as well as many towns in neighboring states. The devastation is so great that NC resources are not enough. Help will have to come from multiple states, and it will take time for that help to arrive. There is no way anyone could have prepared enough for a storm this catastrophic.
Newscaster clueless!!!!!!
I am assuming that the state declared a state of emergency and that the National Guard and FEMA have been spun up? No mention of any of this in this interview.
Elon Musk sending Satellites to get phone signals- where is the president? Sending help to Ukraine ???
National Guard is probably in the Middle East
Mayorkas already said FEMA didn't have the Money. It was spent coddling the Illegals Biden has been flooding the Nation with, for the last 3+ years. So, when the real Floods came and US Citizens needed the funds we paid for with our Taxes, they simply weren't there.
It's now Thursday night October 3, 2024.
Asheville is in a desperate situation.
Many parts of the city and county are on a central water supply system that has suffered major damage. There is no running water and the prediction is for many areas to not see running water for THREE months. We have 270,000 people here and we cannot live into the winter months without running water.
Many people are making trips to get water from streams and creeks to flush their toilets. Don't know what we will do when these sources freeze. Please help.
Contact politicians in your area to see if they're who they say they are and are willing to do something about this. Follow up on your contacts with them. Hold their feet to the fire, as the expression goes. It's time for politicians to step up and make things happen. Help us.
Don't trust the government officials. Trust God and the good citizens from other parts of the state and country. The government officials will drag their feet and use this crisis as a political weapon.
They should fire him for being such an idiot
He's just like all the rest of new castor's now! We don't have news journalist or investigative reporters anymore; just bobble-heads espousing what they are told to say.
This is soooo terrible and i'm saddened by the details. I live here in Knoxville and grateful to not be in this situation, AMEN. Praying for our neighbors up the road in Newport, Asheville,NC, GA, AND FLA.🙏🏼
I lived in Houston and we experienced the same frustrations for months and years after Alison, Ike, and Harvey. It’s one day at a time and baby steps will turn into STRIDES..
Ya I’m sure the people there are feeling really patient!!
I have lived in Houston over 60 years. I have seldom seen anything close to this in Texas, compared to what these People are going through. We live in a Coastal Flood Plain and the water has many outlets to the Sea. These People have no such luxury.

So, with that knowledge.....
MAYOR MANHEIMER GREAT AT ORGANIZING GAY QUEER PARADES THEN DISASTER PREPAREDNESS..RECALL MAYOR
My earlier comment about the mayor was uncalled for, and I apologize. I guess I’m just frustrated that a whole water system can just readily fail. People pay a lot of money to reside in Asheville. And there are a lot of elderly folk that live there. I guess I just expect nothing but the best for the people
That story about bot being able to get into asheville and being cut off is BS and Completely false information.
My daughter easily left Asheville to get supplies in Charlotte and go back. If she can get supplies, why can't the city contract a few dozen tractor trailers to bring in supplies from Charlotte? more.
Normal citizens are organizing better and faster to bring in supplies and help.
Liberal Asheville supporting the liberal governor and the liberal president.
@12juslookin - maybe some day you’ll find your home completely wiped out, and you’re on day 8 without dry clothes, food and water, and it doesn’t seem like anyone is going to find you to help you in time. Let that sink in.
And the only response to your situation is to judge you for your political preferences.
The response from state and local government is a disgrace the people helping each other is greatness personified. The difference in Florida and North Carolina helping their people is a disgrace. Don’t be angry with me.
At times like these, why don’t liberals ask about pronouns, gender identities & female definitions? Because reality is superior to delusional ideas.
Bet you money this Mayor or any other elected officials are homeless.
You're the mayor. Wow. Why aren't you all helping people? Why aren't you offering your home to people?
Dont worry Asheville. Ukraine just got another $8 billion 😢
DEI Democrat mayor that is in over her head unfortunately. She did her best to shine a good light on the governor and president. The newscaster has grey hair but a forth grader would ask better questions
Even now he is at work. In accidents and calamities by sea and by land, in great conflagrations, in fierce tornadoes and terrific hailstorms, in tempests, floods, cyclones, tidal waves, and earthquakes, in every place and in a thousand forms, Satan is exercising his power. He sweeps away the ripening harvest, and famine and distress follow. He imparts to the air a deadly taint, and thousands perish by the pestilence. These visitations are to become more and more frequent and disastrous. Destruction will be upon both man and beast. Great Controversy 589.3 Amen!
My prayers to you all.
I’m in Rockdale county Georgia and dealing with an environmental emergency and stressed. We have been told to shelter in place and stay inside.
I’m so sorry you all are dealing with this.
Word of advice. Don’t wait for FEMA. They don’t really come. Personal experience. They don’t want to help, with all the dollars they receive. They wait and drag it out. Local people have to do it to get it started. The rest will come. It helps to have a good governor- like RD- he has it on the ready.
I'm confused, they hate socialism. In your opinion, do you feel that the impacted states are not receiving socialism fast enough?
@@Dolomite78Yes, you are confused.
I’m glad Ukraine got 5.5 billion dollars this week. Maybe people in North Carolina can stop complaining and donate to Ukraine? They need the money more than NC.
@@Dolomite78 WTF you talking about, thats why you pay taxes!!
Russian bot says what? Go home Ivan.
when I lived in Florida, I lived through 5 major hurricanes. On average it takes a few day for relief crews and supplies to reach people in need. I understand the mayor's concern about the time it's taking for relief to show up. I'm surprised they're getting supplies and relief so quickly. But Asheville was never hit like this in anyones lifetime, so all this wide spread devastation is new to them. They're scared, nervous, and shaken, but once the full blown force of the relief corps reaches her, that relief will continue until everything is cleaned up and Asheville can start to rebuild. She showing her great strength, the town is lucky to have a mayor so strong.
The hold up is people talking about it, instead of doing what ever it takes to get this situation taken care of . Starting now.
Dude is too chipper. Tone it down and be more respectful.
This is unbelievable
Money going to the lawless immigrants
And other countries - Ukraine and Israel
Just stop it. Politicizing this disaster is adding stress to already stressed people. Just because Trump wouldn’t give aid to regions he considered liberal does not mean that is happening now. It’s like the little kid who hit his brother and to try to get away with it, runs crying to mommy, “He hit me.”
Thank you, know the area well trying to help
Thank you
“Are things starting to get better” That’s your leading question?
That’s a question worth asking…also, you dint know if that was the leading question because the video was clearly edited and the woman wasn’t even introduced
We've visited Asheville many times, we love the area, the people, it is a very special place. What we are seeing there sickens me, it is horrifying. Seeing what happened on a TV screen or computer monitor can't come close to understanding what it is to be in the midst of all the destruction. Prayers for all those who have suffered this awful tragedy. My family will donate all that we can to help.
IT TOOK GOV COOPER 4 DAYS TO STUFF THERE, FINALLY ACTIVATED NAT GUARD TO FLY FOOD AND WATER IN TODAY
Imagine a wall of water coming toward people in an instant. How many do you think survive that? Those who do survive that initial flood or water & mud have nothing left to sustain that life. As someone who lives in NC with friends in those areas helping, I'm going to tell you.. It's extremely heartbreaking & something a lot of people will never get over seeing, smelling, & feeling! The things I have been told about.. It's beyond biblical. It's a total tragedy!
This guy is so out of touch how is he a reporter. ?? Ridiculous
this news people are really stupid how do you suppose to have power back on all those people when it is hard to get to places, you have to remove debris, dirt, land, water, all kind of shit before you can have repair crew there, install new electric poles, etc, this is mass. it is been only few days, this is going to take months if not a years.
The flooding is killer here plus the trees blown down taking the power with it. Shelters/housing, food, facilities, washers, dryers, showers, clothes, money, or debt forgiveness, to get people eventually back on their feet in this mountain community. They've lost everything to live right now.
They gave a stand down to ppl trying to get help to people! Its crazy and ppl are still dying. Wake up MEDIA!! 100's ++++ Gone forever!!! Help these people that have survived this!!
STOP COMPLAINING PEOPLE WHEN THERE IS NO WAY IN YET!!!
😮Completely false information. My daughter easily left Asheville to get supplies in Charlotte and go back. If she can get supplies, why can't the city contract a few dozen tractor trailers to bring in supplies from Charlotte? Power generators, inverters, portable grills or. Charcoal for cooking. They can do so much more. Normal citizens are organizing better and faster to bring in supplies and help
Asheville is the Capital of Appalachia.
No..actually it's been overun with out of state weridos that pretty much screwed up this once peaceful mountain tourist town. That said the recovery will need a tremedous amount of resources not just for Ashville but most of western NC.
After Ivan, it took 3 months to get fuel.
2 years to get some semblance of normality and we were not isolated like NC
I hope this horrible catastrophe teaches people an important lesson. Follow FEMA's recommendations on what you should keep in your home for emergencies. People that have no food and it hasn't been a week? Asheville can also experienced horrible winter weather . I suggest people get over the notion that being prepared is bad, people are always making fun of preppers. Well who's laughing now it's definitely not the preppers. Instead of waiting on the government to help you help yourself and help your family. Keep enough water and food on hand for at least a month, don't forget about any prescriptions you might need. If everyone's a little more proactive, that way emergency responders can really go after the people most in need that's the people that are trapped with their homes destroyed ❤️ the governor and the mayor should both have satellite phones to stay in contact. She claims that they're prepared for hard stuff but I don't think so .
No power and flooding...cannot keep things in a fridge when that happens...
@@tamjeanell That's what shelf stable foods are for.
She has her hands full. She should contact Ron Desantis for guidance!

Why hasn’t Biden reached out. Instead he sits on a beach. Prayers to all those affected
The mayor literally said that Biden called her twice? watch the video?
These situations are why the people in the mountains prep. It's taught from generation to generation that you have to prepare for events. This is some of the most beautiful places in the country. The things that make it so beautiful are now what has taken these beautiful town's out.
One day folks might actually wake up and see what happens when you vote democrat.
