00:02:12.240
i'll get a call from him and be like yeah uh i'm in the jungles of vietnam we think we know where
00:02:18.840
the pow's are and we're just gonna get them out he's just everywhere doing stuff he's like a real
00:02:25.500
life action hero but he's also a congressman he's running uh his campaign his campaign people are
00:02:31.780
freaking out they're like this is a close election cory you know uh and he's like the people in my
00:02:37.740
district are okay they weren't hit by the hurricane they're okay i can't go to my maker and say yeah i
00:02:47.600
could help these people you know in another state but i had a campaign to run he said i can't do it
00:02:53.220
um and uh so i told him yesterday i don't know where i'm gonna find time to do this but i said
00:02:58.840
let me go campaign for you let me just go do a speech or something for you while you're up here
00:03:03.860
um because i believe in this guy this guy is this guy should shame every member of congress
00:03:10.600
should shame every member of congress the power of what one person can do when coupled with other
00:03:16.700
people is absolutely amazing don't ever count yourself out as i can't do it do you realize that
00:03:23.380
this audience is playing a major role in a major historic disaster you are by giving to mercury
00:03:33.720
i can't tell you how many people i i met and they were like we couldn't have done it without your
00:03:39.460
audience we we cannot do it without you you have no idea you know all of the oxygen on every uh county
00:03:47.260
ambulance now is provided by this audience they they ran they blew through all of their supply they
00:03:53.560
weren't prepared for this um you know nobody's prepared for something of this scale and uh they were
00:04:00.080
like we're out of oxygen we got oxygen we have pallets now of o2 that we we flew in um we're we're filling
00:04:08.460
transport planes uh when i left the airport one of our transport planes was flying down i think to
00:04:15.720
florida to pick up other supplies and flying back overnight um it's it's remarkable and fema
00:04:23.340
is despicable uh you know me if you've listened to this program uh for very long i don't like to use
00:04:40.120
the word treason i really don't because it's the only thing in the constitution that spells out
00:04:48.020
you know the punishment and uh and i don't like calling people traitors and i and i won't today
00:04:55.740
but i will tell you a case could be made that there are a lot of people that are bordering
00:05:04.520
on the line of treason our country is being dismantled our country is being torn apart
00:05:12.580
that fema has spent let me see if i can get this exactly right i want to get these right fema has
00:05:20.680
spent 1.4 billion dollars on immigrants illegals okay 1.4 0.2 billion dollars on rehousing flying these
00:05:35.340
illegals illegals in without your knowledge we paid for all of it 174.2 billion dollars
00:05:49.180
and how much how can i ask how much it was 750 dollars and in uh hawaii they got 700 dollars so 700 dollars
00:06:02.900
in hawaii 750 dollars but don't worry that's gonna that's gonna be very helpful they just lost
00:06:09.380
everything it is it's embarrassing as a nation it is embarrassing by the way the electric vehicle
00:06:18.080
chargers where they have put two uh that's 7.5 billion dollars uh the high speed internet which
00:06:27.860
didn't happen we spent 42.45 billion dollars the high speed internet thing didn't happen
00:06:36.280
but they you know they've got don't worry on a surprisingly quiet hurricane season they're out
00:06:44.880
of money first of all i'd like to remind the government no you're not you print money all the
00:06:51.880
time this is the one time where you're like gosh guys if we print more money man it'll just cause
00:06:59.000
inflation it'll be really bad really really bad and besides the printing presses are booked for the
00:07:05.720
next month and a half because we're printing so much money for iran and ukraine
00:07:12.740
out of money huh i you know i don't remember voting to uh bring all these illegals in and house them
00:07:23.980
and feed them and give billions of dollars through most likely many corrupt ngos that are wasting our
00:07:34.320
money i don't remember that i don't remember voting you know what we should do we should go into
00:07:38.980
other countries and find some people that want to come here and we'll just pay their way we'll find
00:07:45.300
out who they are and then say come to america where do you want to go you want to go to kansas city
00:07:51.300
they got the chiefs it's great you go to new york you know some great little restaurants and bistros
00:07:58.280
everywhere you're gonna love it and it's a free ticket and then we'll set you up in a really nice hotel
00:08:05.200
or ones that used to be really nice and free food and two thousand five hundred dollars just
00:08:11.860
because you are so oppressed so oppressed i can't even take how oppressed you are so you get twenty
00:08:18.580
five hundred dollars and you get a free phone and you get a free phone and you get a free phone
00:08:23.660
and seven hundred and fifty dollars for these people who have been paying taxes hard-working
00:08:31.040
regular people and you can't even fly a helicopter in to get people off their roofs
00:08:41.600
and you show up a week late by the way i want to thank president uh biden for you know taking that
00:08:51.280
aerial view uh in you know he just didn't want to disrupt anything and he only stopped our rescue
00:08:57.240
helicopters from rescuing people for four hours so uh you know that was great didn't piss the rescuers
00:09:03.720
off at all at all so anyway fema is there and um i said so uh why are you guys here there were we took
00:09:18.900
a van there were 10 of us in this van uh and we were going back to the the food distribution point
00:09:26.360
and uh you know everybody's looking out the windows and seeing stuff and i said ho ho ho hold on turn
00:09:31.740
turn around you guys see the fema truck everybody i didn't see the fema truck yeah it's it's tucked
00:09:39.340
back in the corner behind this i don't know uh you know michael's that is closed and uh so we went
00:09:47.640
into the like cops everywhere food is on the other side like a lowe's you know garden shop
00:09:55.380
and all the attention when you drive in all the attention is over there because people are going
00:10:00.520
to get food because they don't have any food but behind the michael's uh that's been closed and i think
00:10:11.860
next to the chuck e cheese which was so busy no they were closed too was under a tree this fema truck
00:10:29.060
well we're we're getting everybody you know to sign up for the the aid
00:10:38.740
they're they're you know the crowd is down there there's only one person at your table yeah i know
00:10:45.680
but that's because we haven't really announced where we are yet i'm thinking that's probably good
00:10:50.760
um but i said what do you mean and he said well um our flyers haven't uh arrived yet uh so we're
00:11:01.280
waiting for our own flyers that say you know fema is here i'm like all flyers we didn't think of that
00:11:07.940
flyer thing uh we just went you know to where everybody is and then we didn't need flyers but
00:11:15.480
i didn't say that uh at this point i was like don't say anything at all don't say anything at all
00:11:19.620
uh and uh he said well we you know we just have to be where the people are and i said that's good
00:11:27.280
and i'm thinking that's not here uh you know when do you move there uh and uh i said so um so you're
00:11:36.200
doing this with the flyers and he said no we also uh you know we're gonna tell the media and so you
00:11:42.920
know radio television it'll be everywhere and i thought hmm i don't see a lot of people sitting
00:11:50.680
down in their living rooms because their living rooms have washed four blocks down the street with
00:11:56.940
their televisions in it um you know maybe they have a little portable television that they just have
00:12:01.880
to plug in oh no they don't have any power and uh i said you know they they're probably not watching
00:12:08.200
tv he said but yeah but the word will get around okay all right um uh and he said you know and
00:12:14.760
there's an app this is the greatest app this app will do everything and all they have to do is just
00:12:20.580
download it on their phone and uh and cory said well they you know they don't they don't really have
00:12:27.160
power to plug their phones in he said yeah but a lot of people can just go to their cars
00:12:32.020
and plug their cars you know plug the phone into the car to charge it and uh we we pointed out to him
00:12:39.040
you mean the cars like right turn around see that river see all the cars that are in the the creek now
00:12:47.680
that are destroyed you mean they're sitting in those cars because they no longer have cars
00:12:54.140
that's that's what was happening in my head i just said hmm uh and uh uh he uh he said but we have to
00:13:05.600
be where the people are and i said well if the people don't come out and he said well then we go
00:13:09.580
door to door and i'm thinking that's good because they don't have doors and i i said when you do that
00:13:16.120
and he said well that's above my pay grade you know it's the government so you know i i don't have
00:13:20.320
that information is there anybody here that does have them yeah my boss where's your boss sitting
00:13:25.540
at the table no in the air-conditioned truck right now she's in the air-conditioned truck oh good can
00:13:30.860
you can you maybe go get your boss you know tell her you know she'll have to come out here where it's
00:13:35.260
hot you know but she can go right back into the air-conditioned truck uh where she can get away from
00:13:41.420
all of these people uh and so she comes out she was a delightful lady uh and uh and uh we said when
00:13:49.740
he didn't know when you start going door to door and she looked at him and she said we don't go door
00:13:54.400
to door you don't go door to door no we're here you know where it's all happening and i looked at
00:14:05.560
cory and cory looked at me and we're like it's not happening here this isn't where people are i mean
00:14:12.460
if you want to be a little closer to where people are going you should go where the food is
00:14:19.660
yeah well we we were talking about that today oh okay good good good and the truck doesn't really
00:14:27.940
work yet uh but we're still gathering information because that oh the relief that these people can get
00:14:34.540
oh it's it's really it's just amazing i bet it is uh and then i just started to back away from this
00:14:45.260
oh i don't even know murder scene it was just so ugly uh and i just started backing away and gory
00:14:52.200

00:18:21.520
the people are what is going to make the difference and pull them through and it was 9 12 you remember
00:18:27.860
what we were like on 9 12 yes it was just like that anybody who's wondered are we gonna pull back
00:18:34.000
together if there's a yes the answer is yeah and it felt so good it felt so good to feel that can i can
00:18:42.100
share one of the stories that one of the cousins or grandkids told us yesterday when we're picking
00:18:46.240
uh grandma up getting there to the yeah to the helicopter um they were telling us okay so our
00:18:51.880
our neighbors everybody's in trouble right one of these guys the roof blew off and somebody had a
00:18:56.280
serious head injury this is crazy so so what did we do we grabbed a ladder put the person on the ladder
00:19:02.780
walked three miles to the firehouse and then there was some wilderness emt there and a bunch of good
00:19:10.720
old boys and they were like you know what we'll do whatever we can bring them in and they they were
00:19:16.240
problem solving left and right it was it that that story was amazing this guy had a he walked out to
00:19:23.180
check the the animals um on this farm and the roof i think from another house blew off and hit him in the
00:19:32.620
head and he was laying out a major head injury uh and somebody else saw it happen and he runs out
00:19:41.200
and they carry him three miles in the storm at the height of the storm i mean and everybody seemed to
00:19:49.200
know each other uh it's it's a weird place it is so cool it honestly we were when we landed the
00:19:56.660
helicopter there was this big uh beautiful horse that was up in the woods and it was just kind of
00:20:03.400
staring at us in this on this mountainside and i mean it it should have had a one horn in the egg
00:20:11.200
because it was like am i seeing a mythical creature here this place is so magical uh and we landed and
00:20:19.020
these two old guys come walking up the street and they're like how can we help you you know helicopter
00:20:24.140
just landed in in the back field how can we help you well we're looking for you know 3501 black rock
00:20:30.960
or whatever uh i don't know where that is i think it's around the corner who are you trying to help
00:20:37.320
gave him the name oh yeah i know you know what was the the guy who was in the other field uh well so
00:20:45.960
then we were walking trying to find where this house was and we we just walked by this one guy and
00:20:51.160
he's like y'all need a ride his name's jim and we're like yeah jim he's like that's my truck right
00:20:56.120
there get in let's go so here we are glenn beck is sitting on the back of the truck and we're just
00:21:02.180
rolling through town trying to find whatever house this is that we can go get the lady to med backer
00:21:07.620
on the helicopter we go in and i mean everybody was helping each other everybody knew you know what
00:21:16.100
was going on and and and there's no coordination they don't even i mean the cell service there
00:21:22.020
not good not good and then and then word gets out that glenn beck has landed in a field in a
00:21:27.440
helicopter and stew you can only imagine that the people are like i'm sorry what who's who's in my
00:21:32.960
field right now and we were about to take off and there was this one woman who is just she's like
00:21:37.660
this is my one chance i am going and she just bolts out there and runs and gets a picture with you and
00:21:42.760
and it was it was such a great day it was really great uh we have cory mills uh congressman cory
00:21:48.540
mills vote cory mills uh uh hello congressman how are you i'm good how are you good good uh listen uh
00:21:58.360
we had to go rescue some people so we didn't get a chance to see everything we wanted to see but i
00:22:06.580
want to put life in front of our needs that's fine um but we didn't get to chimney rock and and uh
00:22:13.700
are you going to be able to make it up there today to find out some things for us i will i'm going to
00:22:17.720
be heading to chimney rock and also the questions that i want to ask was with regards to uh kind of
00:22:23.400
the comments that's been made that the federal government's looking to essentially just bulldoze
00:22:27.400
that entire area um but i haven't heard anything on whether or not they plan to rebuild that area
00:22:32.780
yeah that starts to tie into things that we've heard in the past about uh lithium resource
00:22:38.220
capabilities and also different assets in the region um but i will say that it's a bit bizarre
00:22:43.740
you know this being the fifth day uh for me in western north carolina uh and thanks to mercury one
00:22:49.360
and and i'll tell you that the amazing veteran-led charity operations it is incredible that we're now
00:22:56.700
going to be dropping over 10 tons in the last five days as of today so we will have over
00:23:02.560
20 000 pounds of supplies that we've moved in the last five days before fema and their single
00:23:09.100
communication truck where they're claiming that you can just go watch on the media to find their
00:23:14.040
location i guess the houses and tv are out oh my god um have even lifted a finger the blood was
00:23:20.240
shooting out of my eyes i you know i was thinking all your face that when the minute she said they
00:23:25.700
watch it on the media i look at your face and i was like if i wasn't here right now oh my gosh i would
00:23:31.180
have i mean blood was shooting out of my eyes and i all i could think of as my mom if you don't have
00:23:35.920
anything nice to say don't say anything at all and i just i mean i think you saw me back up a little
00:23:40.920
bit because i was like i actually did i can't take it i can't take it um so anyway and at first when
00:23:47.020
you backed up i just kind of like i stood there for a minute and i i started to slowly back up as well
00:23:51.480
because i was like maybe he's wanting to leave maybe i'm i don't know and then i realized that no
00:23:55.820
you're just creating distance oh so that you didn't lose so you know what was so frustrating is when
00:24:02.840
we got to the fema truck which was pathetic absolutely pathetic and they came in like conquering
00:24:08.460
heroes you know we're here now you know it's like it's like new yorkers going to any small town in
00:24:15.420
america all right you're saved i'm ready to be your mayor i'm from new york it was like that you
00:24:21.640
found this truck like a where's waldo i mean it was in the middle of nowhere away from the actual
00:24:28.520
and i'm going to use their term the masses and like it just was comical to me that we talked to
00:24:35.720
the first guy and he's like yeah we're going to get ready to go for dated door-to-door operations
00:24:39.960
when oh that's above my pay grade well well let me get you your supervisor and then you talk
00:24:45.200
to the supervisor glenn and she says well we have no plan to actually do door-to-door that's not our
00:24:49.340
job in our department crazy it's just it was it was so frustrating and the thing i noticed and this
00:24:55.040
why i feel like this was 9 12 do you know what that day felt like or you remember 9 12 2001 yeah
00:25:01.700
it felt like that and it gave me so much hope because this is just the beginning of these are the
00:25:08.260
birth pangs of things to come uh and all of america is going to need uh you're going to need help and
00:25:16.080
it's not going to come and uh i'll tell you i i just felt so hopeful so incredibly hopeful
00:25:24.420
being there uh but the one thing i did uh i heard a lot of and i don't know if you can tell the story
00:25:31.400
of uh i think it was fema that came into where we've set up a clinic one of the uh you know
00:25:39.360
veteran-led uh they set up a clinic can you tell that story yeah so we've set up uh multiple
00:25:45.980
distribution uh center areas and especially around ashville and adam smith who's a former special
00:25:50.980
forces guy whose ex-wife and child actually lives in and around the actual area um you know when we
00:25:58.500
first started this day one it was literally a small overhang of supplies and if you go there
00:26:06.400
now it's the largest distribution area in the entire western north carolina area and we had set
00:26:12.840
up clinics as well there's kind of this med bay clinic and to your point about the conquering romans
00:26:18.100
that are walking in they were like okay we're here now we're going to take your supplies and you
00:26:22.220
actually don't have the ability to operate here because you're not operating under a certified
00:26:27.180
medical license of north carolina now take a moment to think about that they haven't been there
00:26:35.220
for a week we've been treating people getting medivacs into johnson city like the gentleman who was
00:26:42.760
having cardiac arrest a woman who was showing signs of bone disease and hypertension or the person that
00:26:48.140
you grappled down like some i don't know captain america and went and rescued off the top of a
00:26:54.440
mountain yeah anyway go ahead and doing some good hoist house yeah but we've been dropping i mean
00:26:59.380
even up in areas like pentacle in north carolina was one of the most isolated areas up in the
00:27:04.320
mountains at like a 5 000 plus foot level um which i know you refer to it as the you know smoky hills
00:27:10.580
they're now the smoky mountains we've now shown that no i said yesterday i can't make fun of them
00:27:15.000
anymore i can't i've actually seen that i could live here yeah i could in a heartbeat anyway think about
00:27:21.380
this though so we're treating people we're getting the key medications that they need for type one
00:27:26.160
you know diabetics we're getting oxygen for people who don't have the ability to resupply because there
00:27:31.180
is no resupply we have more oxygen in our aid area than mission hospital had said that they actually had
00:27:37.940
and so we're operating helping save lives and here comes fema oh you can't do that you can't remain
00:27:45.420
on this location to treat people because you don't have a north carolina medical license
00:27:49.240
unbelievable and uh and and and what was said to them basically to piss off
00:27:57.120
i mean this is a team who's literally these are their family members these are people who are
00:28:03.860
proper veterans and they basically said oh you don't like it well you can leave or we can just
00:28:08.580
relocate our clinic right i mean you know that's like limeright sight yeah these these guys are
00:28:15.300
i mean this this town and the veterans i i have to tell you good comes out of everything god uses
00:28:24.120
everything even the worst to do good and to do his will you know if you served in afghanistan and you
00:28:32.520
saw how that ended that may all of that may have been to prepare you for the times that are coming
00:28:39.060
so you can help your fellow man in your own country uh these veterans have come out and i gotta tell you
00:28:48.440
they just took charge and they knew exactly what they were doing i mean they're they're running an
00:28:54.500
airport you know and the fea is like oh pete put it judge said you gotta shut this down yeah we're not
00:29:01.400
going to uh it's fantastic just fantastic i would love to see mayor pete come out and tell adam smith
00:29:08.420
who looks like he's a professional wrestler or you know defensive back at about 340 pounds and 6'4
00:29:15.360
um i'd like for him to come out and tell him that he can't continue to save lives yeah he looks more
00:29:20.080
like stretch armstrong uh you know there's a big hole i don't think you'll have time to come out there
00:29:25.260
glenn because he's still nursing yeah you're listening to the best of the glenn beck podcast
00:29:30.560

00:29:36.060
all right let me start with uh let me start with the name of the person that is responsible for
00:29:42.940
breaking the back of the strike now i'm glad they moved it down you know they they just held off
00:29:49.840
all right we're gonna hold off till after the election and just about five days before the
00:29:56.960
swearing in of the oh it's gonna work out well um so but we don't have that on the plate to add to
00:30:05.920
the stress of america at least right now and that is because of one man and one man only ron de santis
00:30:14.700
ron de santis came out yesterday and said yeah i'm gonna call out the national guard
00:30:20.680
uh because we're not going to be held hostage so national guard is going to go in and they'll open
00:30:26.320
the ports we'll open the ports uh for florida so we get things and supplies in here national guard
00:30:32.040

00:30:39.540
in a heartbeat seriously i just love you look how look how accepting you are yeah you want to talk
00:30:45.720
about diversity on the show i i don't a gay radio hall of fame member right there you got it if it
00:30:51.320
wasn't for the icky sex yes yes so anyway um i'm sorry i've got i've got an appointment later on this
00:31:01.460
afternoon to burn some books in a hood um but uh uh this guy is amazing i think donald trump
00:31:08.460
should announce a few members of a cabinet and he should do it right now he should announce that
00:31:15.840
elon musk has agreed to be you know the cost cutting czar it seems like they've floated that
00:31:23.640
one and it's been discussed it's not official but he needs to he needs to announce that uh rfk
00:31:30.580
tulsi gabbard elon musk and i've extended the invitation to run fema and close fema down
00:31:42.220
and give the state the ability the state's ability to actually keep that money themselves
00:31:49.960
and prepare for disaster i'd like ron de santis to run fema i think he would be unbelievable
00:31:58.140
his term is up in 26 i mean i'd wait for that would you wait for that i'd wait some of those
00:32:04.800
ideas are great that you just weren't mentioned um so yeah i agree you just can't get past your
00:32:10.680
hatred for rfk can you you just hate him so much you know if he jilted you he said i'm not interested
00:32:16.920
in that icky gay sex with stew okay please stop talking
00:32:20.860
not even about just this topic all topics okay yeah um if we're going to if we're going to put a
00:32:28.520
lifelong democrat into the administration in some way i i would far prefer tulsi gabbard that would
00:32:35.200
be my stance on that particular issue uh just just god forbid just for the the wives of the other
00:32:42.020
people in the cabinet all right i mean god please we all know he's a kennedy so we all know um so
00:32:47.860
but what i will say uh is i mean i i don't know honestly to be honest about it really really love
00:32:56.180
ron de santis really think i would like him to do something more important than uh than that's fine
00:33:03.540
whatever i'm just saying just one i'm just saying his job right now is is great and i could see him
00:33:09.820
with higher office certainly down the road right and i i'd give him any job i wouldn't want to pull
00:33:15.380
him out of florida to run no no i said his term is up in 26th yeah i would give that man any job
00:33:20.960
that he wanted what do you want to run yeah when you're done with governor what do you want to run
00:33:24.300
uh and involve him but he is when it comes to disasters that guy excuse the expression is an ass
00:33:32.500
kicker yeah i mean he's amazing and like that's what i feel like used to be a really something we
00:33:38.700
really prized that cross partisan lines like the just the general competence in times of stress
00:33:47.360
used to be the thing that i mean i think that was one of the things that happened with bush where like
00:33:51.060
he was seen i think largely unfairly for botching the katrina stuff and it was more damaging to him
00:34:00.180
not because liberals turned against him they are all calling him a terrorist the whole time
00:34:04.940
and that he was intentionally responsible for 9-11 yeah and he was and he hated black people he was
00:34:11.180
letting them die that's right i mean if you want to make that case we can make that case about white
00:34:17.000
people but i'm not going to uh george bush doesn't care about black people if you remember that from
00:34:22.840
kanye west who has had quite a journey since that particular statement when the media loved him back
00:34:28.360
then when he was uh was saying those things um but what happened with bush with katrina and a couple
00:34:34.800
of other things in that area uh of time was that he it felt like he was incompetent and his own
00:34:41.560
supporters and moderates and kind of independent voters started to bail on him yeah right and then
00:34:47.700
of course the war going poorly sort of added on to that but like that was a a a really central thing
00:34:54.400
of what we expected and wanted out of politicians just you know like yeah you have opinions we all know
00:34:59.240
you have opinions we might not like your policies but in those moments are you going to be the person
00:35:03.800
who steps up and gets the job done desantis has done that every single time every time every time
00:35:09.580
i wish i would have snapped a picture of him you know uh he was holding a press conference and behind
00:35:15.600
him were what appeared to be miles of utility trucks and he's like we're ready it's like yeah yeah you are
00:35:24.440
you are you know and and he believes in the 10th amendment oh oh so the unions are going to shut
00:35:32.840
down our ports well no i'm the governor of florida and if the federal government won't do anything
00:35:39.040
i'm calling out our national guard and we'll keep those ports open that's the reason they folded they
00:35:45.640
lost all of their power in negotiation they lost all of it uh so it was uh thank you ronda santis for
00:35:53.580
saving the country on that one can i ask you glenn about and this is you know lower priority than
00:35:59.280
the stuff you've been talking about uh when it comes to your trip to north carolina yesterday in
00:36:03.620
this whole region but there is a political concern here right we've got an election that's a month away
00:36:09.880
and i have to tell may i tell you a quick story on this yeah sure uh a couple of days ago we rescued
00:36:16.120
a woman who was uh up two women that were up on on a mountain and uh they were flagging the helicopter
00:36:25.340
and we were taking somebody else to the hospital i think and so the other helicopter was called and
00:36:31.200
they came and they picked him up they brought him down uh from the mountain they were out of food and
00:36:37.140
and one of the first things they said was uh before we go back up uh we need to vote can you can you take
00:36:46.880
us i mean these people are pissed they are pissed if if north carolina does not go hard for trump
00:36:58.600
i'd be shocked really yeah they're pissed i mean they are pissed it's a big part of the reason i'm
00:37:04.620
asking yeah uh because you know this is a key swing state i i think donald trump if he doesn't win
00:37:12.680
north carolina i don't think he could win yeah i don't i mean it there's a path it's possible but i
00:37:18.700
think it's super unlikely if he doesn't win i mean the very very cynical part of me which is almost all
00:37:23.480
of me at this point uh says you know there's one of the reasons why they're not helping there is
00:37:29.200
you've just taken out a swath of trump supporters okay this is this is yeah this is some have died
00:37:36.160
but also some have well that's what i mean totally you can't get to pull these people they don't have
00:37:42.520
cars their bridges are washed out i mean it's going to be tough but i'll tell you i i met several
00:37:50.600
people the the old lady who we rescued that she's like 80 years old she's fantastic and she didn't
00:37:58.720
know who i was or who cory mills was we were just helping her get into the and as she's being put into
00:38:05.440
the life flight she's just this damn biden he doesn't give a flying crap and she was colorful uh
00:38:15.580
and i thought i think i know who she's voting for yeah uh you know and this used to be democratic
00:38:21.660
country oh really oh because i think of that part of the state as more red you do now this this was
00:38:28.560
these were tobacco farmers okay and you know they they don't have health care they don't these are
00:38:34.760
poor poor people and so you know they've been for government assistance because they've needed
00:38:41.220
government assistance but now they see what this government assistance really means no they're
00:38:47.700
not interested this has turned people at least in that area i think this has made them generational
00:38:55.260
republicans just because of how bad this response everybody i everybody i talked to was pissed at the
00:39:05.040
federal government they were pissed i heard i can't tell you how many times i heard yesterday
00:39:10.160
really how much money are they given to these illegal immigrants and we've got nothing no one's on the
00:39:18.260
ground i'm telling you i didn't see national guard i know the national guard is there they've been
00:39:23.440
there for four or five days i think um but i didn't see any of them and i was in really some of the
00:39:29.580
hardest hit areas uh i didn't there was no federal anything except the uh satellite truck for fema which
00:39:38.940
wasn't working at the time that but they're gonna who they're where the people are no they weren't they
00:39:43.860
were out in the middle of nowhere uh signing people up so they could get their paperwork in and start the
00:39:50.700
system to help chug along uh and uh and there was they were helping one person it was it was despicable
00:39:58.860
uh then um there was another place where fema was at another center where they were they put up showers
00:40:06.040
so people could take showers which i thought was really nice until they said that you know no no
00:40:11.420
not for the people but for the volunteers so the volunteers could take showers the people you know
00:40:17.400
anybody gonna go into the shower it was it's obscene it's obscene when when mercury one
00:40:25.280
is the one that is providing all of the o2 for all of the ambulances and one of the hospitals
00:40:33.460
because they can't get it when that's happening excuse me federal government when there are people
00:40:44.500
literally we're saving their lives because we're providing insulin and life-saving drugs that they
00:40:53.540
can't that nobody else has government's not there handing out these drugs i mean you can go into the
00:41:00.420
cities you go into homeless areas and you know they'll hand you drugs there you know lots of drugs
00:41:07.180
