Hurricane Helene devastated the southeast last week as one of the worst storms in U.S. history, with the current death toll surpassing 160.
Many people were hit by falling trees or trapped in flooding homes and cars.
Rescue efforts are still in full force as emergency crews work to reach isolated communities that have been cut off due to flooding and collapsed roads.

The fukn atmospheric music. Fukoff
Yall should be blaming your local leaders for not warning ppl properly. Cat 4 hurricane ummmm hello… what did you all expect. I guess it’s all fake right. Don’t blame anyone but your local leaders who wanted your properties especially in those mountains where they want to drill.
Here comes the endless stream of evil pieces of shit begging for help , people who get off on bulldozing homeless camps . who dont care about homeless kids . A bunch of lazy pathetic liars who claim to be self made about to get a bunch of welfare checks on taxpayer dime
Turn back to god USA. He’s clearly sending a huge message
Just incredible. Hard to even fathom.
Courage to the inhabitants of Caroline have supported you in the difficulty that damaged your house and your city I wish you a lot of love 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸
IF YOU WANT YOU LIFE BACK, and REAL HELP …. BETTER VOTE TRUMP
KARMELA AND BIDEN HAVE DONE NOTHING, DONT CARE ABOUT YOU AND WILL NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR ISSUES
I WANT TRUMP TO WIN, TUTOR AND MENTOR JD VANCE TO BECOME PRESIDENT FOR 8 YEARS, AFTER 4 MORE YEARS OF TRUMP
THIS IS WHAT THIS NATION NEED …. WHEN THE EVIL RISE, WHEN SATAN COMES INTO THIS WORLD
JD VANCE IS CAPABLE, TRUMP IS CAPABLE
BOTH CAN DEAL WITH ISLAM NO PROBLEM AND FIX THIS NATION
IF YOU WANT YOU LIFE BACK, and REAL HELP …. BETTER VOTE TRUMP
KARMELA AND BIDEN HAVE DONE NOTHING, DONT CARE ABOUT YOU AND WILL NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR ISSUES
✝️🕯🥀🕊
I cant even like the video………heartbreaking….😢😢….
This is terrible. Destruction by water. Lahaina Maui Destruction by Fire. Both areas need help
The wrath of God
I sure hope EVERYONE pays attention to what the corrupt leaders in Washington are NOT doing to help these people! They are sending OUR TAX DOLLARS overseas to other stinking countries that want to use it against us !! and to all the other countries so that they can keep war going !! BUT they don't even help our own people, stating they are out of money for FEMA Hurricanes this year??! This is horrendous!! God Knows they need to be out of office. They are NOT for the people.
FEMA and the federal government are nowhere they are doing nothing the locals are doing more for each other than the federal government or FEMA FEMA and the federal government are more concerned with giving Aid to Ukraine……. this is an ultimate weather manipulation situation in order to capture the land in which the federal government and other large corporations want because of the large quarts deposits and lithium deposits they need for AI
This is terrible and the bureaucrats have done very little to help could be because of politics?
My mom has an antique shop on 221 coming down the hill at the tire shop. Blowed the carport up against the building. It was bad.
Terrifying. Heartbreaking. Sad. Depressing. The Survivors Lives will never be the same.
I'm from up in Northwest Saskatchewan Canada and my heart goes out to all of those people with all their losses you have such a great country I hope that your government will worry about you guys and help you get back on your feet instead of running all over the world doing this and that I hope they concentrate on home because you guys have such a great country and I hope that they can restore Hope and Faith in the future with you folks the best of luck to you
Scary.
