'Sheriff: Helene Survivors Cannot Apply for $750 Because They Do Not
Have a Phone or Computer'

'An exasperated South Carolina sheriff slammed the Biden-Harris
administration’s offer to Hurricane Helene survivors of $750 in
“immediate” relief funds, arguing it was nothing compared to what they
gave Ukraine and because it requires access to the internet — which
residents in the worst-hit areas still do not have.
“That lady that’s running for president talks about the $750. Heh — what
about all that money you give to Ukraine and all these other people who
really want to kill us and don’t want to do anything to help us. Why
don’t you just give that money to them, that’s who you want to give it
to to be begin with,” Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright told FOX
News contributor Sara Carter in a video she posted to X on Tuesday.
Carter, who conducted the interview in Chimney Rock, North Carolina,
without internet connection and later uploaded it to X, said that a lot
of people she talked to have been turned down for the $750.
Wright responded, “Well, they talked about ‘get on your phone and
computer.’ Do you not see what the devastation is? They don’t have a
phone or computer!”
Carter noted, “There’s nothing up here, there’s no phone or
communication. I’m going to be posting this later, there’s no way to
access the internet unless you have a Starlink net.”
“Thank you, Elon Musk,” Wright added.
As Breitbart News reported Monday, more than 255,000 customers across
the southeast were still without power.
Wright said his message to the Biden-Harris White House is to “stay
away.”
“If you’re going to be doing the things you’re talking about doing, we’d
just soon you stay out of the way and let the good men and women around
the mountain area and the foothills take care of their own because
you’re nothing more than a boat anchor,” he said.
To former President Donald Trump, he said, “Come soon, President Donald
Trump, we need you. We need you.”
Vice President Kamala Harris last week announced that Americans affected
by Hurricane Helene could apply for $750 for immediate needs. She said
FEMA personnel would be going door-to-door to get residents the
immediate relief money, and those who had an internet connection could
go online to apply.
The announcement sparked criticism that the amount was paltry compared
to the $8 billion that was announced for Ukraine just days before. And
just days after, the administration announced $157 million in aid for
civilians in Lebanon, also sparking outrage.
The Biden-Harris administration has argued that Americans are able to
apply for much more assistance to repair storm-related damage to their
homes and personal property, as well as for temporary housing.
As of October 4, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has said it
has provided $45 million in disaster relief thus far: $23 million to
people in Florida, $17 million to North Carolina, and $4.5 million to
South Carolina'
The entire Biden administration should be lined up in the streets and shot.Who could have thought.

"WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Rick Scott released the following
statement after the State of New York s plans to spend $2.1 billion to
provide up to $15,600 to illegal aliens who lost work during the
pandemic. New York is using funding it received from President Biden’s
wasteful, untargeted $1.9 trillion “COVID” spending bill, which
dedicated less than 10% of its overall price tag to fighting COVID-19,
and included $360 billion for state and local bailouts that
predominantly benefits liberal states. Senator Scott has led the fight
against wasteful blue state bailouts and repeatedly voiced his strong
opposition to this reckless spending."
