It is dangerous business.
The Army Corp needs to concentrate on the mine.
The U.S. Army Corp. has help.
To begin the devastation of Helene is more than any current government entity can deal with alone. Conservation Corps are required to save lives. However, rebuilding in these areas of NC and Tennessee are in question.
This is a link to one of the films by Mr. Mark Huneycutt. He is a very brave, rather brilliant surface geologist and the Army Corp should task his insight.

The link shows the headwaters of a small meandering creek turned into an enormous mudslide. The “thing” is this: These lands at the headwaters are highly unstable areas. They are continuing to be highly unstable. Rebuilding in this entire area is out of the question. There is no way of stabilizing these mountain areas now that they have been devastated and loosened from former stability.
THESE MOUNTAINS, for as beautiful as they are, ARE COMPLETELY UNSTABLE to think anyone within them, or near them are safe going forward.
There were whirlpools of mud and debris where creeks met each other. The land is permanently altered. If storms of any intensity roll through the devastation and erosion will continue. The entire area should be condemned from redevelopment. It will be a century before these mountains can be considered even close to stable. There were enormous rockslides. Trees were shredded. SHREDDED.
Mr. Honeycutt could present his findings to the public to facilitate understanding. He is great.

“Citizens United” was a moronic decision.
This is how the PACS are spending money. This garbage comes every single day. It has done nothing but hurt this democracy. The PACS are throwing money away. It is a trash can full of mailers at postal boxes.
Can we please stop the hatred and bigotry? By the way, Trump would probably take the money. He has no allegiance to anyone.

Those Supreme Court judges are ripping this country apart. They are far too political in their decisions and cause division.
Why journal life?
This is happening all over the world.

Police are supposed to know better.
He is a very sick man.
Imagine the USA without “Citizens United?”
Finally, someone is taking on these bozos.

Dismantling the federal government

It isn't necessary to apologize.
There isn't anyone from the Trump camp apologizing.
It is amazing how the Republicans can make such horrible remarks and get away with it. Not only get away with it, but, double down on it.
Then the Democrats, in this case President Biden, run to protect the minority group from the really lousy words of Trump and his minions and then an apology is demanded.
Well. I don't think so.
President Biden was insulted by the words being spoken in New York City by a candidate for the presidency. He did not blatantly state "garbage" as if an insult pulled out of thin air. He spoke it in horror of the potential and violent fallout that most likely will occur of a dear group of minority Americans and the island nation we hold dear as a territory to this great country.

...Biden (click here) was responding on Tuesday to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who called Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage" at the rally on Sunday and also disparaged Black Americans, Jewish people, Palestinians and Latinos....
It is admirable that President Biden, in thinking twice about the comment, came to apologize so as to not insult the entire number of Republicans in the USA. But, quite frankly those Republican voters should be as appalled as President Biden by those words at a political rally.
The rally in New York City that was conducted and sanctioned by Trump and the Republican Party was another example of political violence. The words were all inflammatory and the potential real harm to real Americans they can cause in this great country is a shame.
That is the truth of the matter.
That is the truth of the matter.
That is the truth of the matter.
President Biden felt compelled to protect citizens because of the violent speeches at a political rally of a candidate for president. The truth is the rally in New York City was purposeful for Trump. It was a call to arms no different than his speech on January 6, 2021. It is the same violence Trump is organizing for when he loses the election.
The people that should be apologizing are the Republicans and their candidates that enthusiastically enjoy such violent gatherings.
Are those words of hate going to be spoken by the Republicans about Western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee in seven years?
Will the Republicans be throwing towels to the residents there after the election?
Joe and Kamala never threw papers towels at the magnificent people of Puerto Rico. They are providing deadly disinformation to the resident of the areas of the USA destroyed by Helene either.
The Biden-Harris Administration (click here) is committed to supporting Puerto Rico’s recovery and renewal. In 2021, President Biden unlocked billions of dollars in disaster funding and enacted historic expansions of economic and healthcare assistance programs for Puerto Rico. Since then, the Biden-Harris Administration has built on these unprecedented investments to ensure Puerto Rico has a strong foundation for sustained growth....
Why did it take until 2021 to unlock billions of dollars of disaster funding for Puerto Rico?
