Your Government Only Cares About Illegals, Not Hurricane Victims

Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee are in ruins and hundreds are dead after the catastrophic Hurricane Helene. But after an agonizingly slow response, FEMA says that it is out of money: All of their budget has already been spent giving free stuff to illegal immigrants. Charlie talks about the disastrous federal handling of Helene and what it says about the regime's values, joined by Rep. Cory Mills, who is volunteering with the recovery. Plus, Riley Gaines talks about the wave of boycotts by college volleyball teams as they refuse to play against a team led by a biological male who can spike the ball at 80 mph.

Hey everybody today I'm Charlie Kirkstra.
How did we get to a place where foreigners are given more support than Americans?
Well that's exactly what is happening in North Carolina.
We're out of money to help Americans.
We're done because all the money has been spent on those migrants that have broken into our country.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy.

Alright, major win for free speech, especially for conservative voices on college campuses.
Last year, Turning Point Chapter at University of New Mexico invited me to speak on their college campus about the gender ideology movement.
Naturally, in an attempt to get me to not come to their campus, the university charged me almost $10,000 in security fees.
I kind of just complied because I thought this was normal, but I was wrong.
I realize this is a tactic that a lot of universities do to conservative voices.
This same hefty fee was not applied to speakers who had opposing viewpoints to me.
A few weeks after, UNM brought a bunch of drag queens to campus, and guess how much they paid in security fees?
That's right. Zero dollars.
So, I sued. Joining us now is Riley Gaines, host of Gaines for Girls podcast and a woman's rights advocate.
It's good to have her back on the show.
Riley, tell us about the lawsuit.
I also had to encounter this at University of New Mexico before.
Tell us all about it. Well, it looks like they did not yet learn their lesson.
Always good to be on with you, Charlie.
Yeah, last year I went to University of New Mexico, and they stuck a $10,000 security fee on me, which, I mean, I thought this was hefty at the time, but of course, being young, being new to the space that maybe this was normal, I didn't really know, didn't pay it, didn't feel right, but I decided to do some digging, and what I found out in doing this digging was this was not the standard fee they charged other speakers, especially speakers who had opposing viewpoints to that of my own.
As I said in the video, a few weeks after I was on campus, of course they had a bunch of drag queens come to campus, and they were charged zero dollars.
And after I saw that, I mean, I really had no other option than to pursue a lawsuit along with Turning Point, along with the individual students there.
They were brave enough to put their own name on the lawsuit, which was pretty incredible.
Leadership Institute, Southeastern Legal Foundation, were all proponents of the lawsuit.
And so we had depositions and things and testifying even, and we just found out last week that at least temporarily the lawsuit has been victorious and they have issued a preliminary injunction, meaning we don't have to pay the fees.
But this is really the first step in hopefully making this injunction permanent for the university to follow from here on out.
Yeah, and again, the idea of freedom of speech on campus only applies to left-wing groups.
And this is from a Herbert Marcuse belief of repressive tolerance.
You can say whatever you want.
The protesters have tons of rights.
But if you as a conservative want to talk about I went up to speak and they had me in a security room.
They had hundreds of protesters. I went to kind of a balcony to go wave at the protesters.
The protesters lost their mind.
The police then did not come to the protesters to arrest them.
They came to me and threatened me with arrest for incitement.
Just to give you an idea of how these college campuses are rigged.
Despite that though, Riley, as you visit these college campuses, are you seeing more and more people wake up to biological reality and this idea that men in female sports is largely unpopular?
Absolutely I am.
What I notice on college campuses, whether it was at UNM, whether it was at even I think of San Francisco State University, another turning point chapter where things got kind of wiry and police had to get involved and really I was ambushed and held for ransom.
Tonight I'm actually at University of Texas in Austin with a turning point chapter.
Hundreds and hundreds of students have signed up to be there, which is really cool.
It shows you these students are desperate to hear the truth.
It is something they are being denied on these college campuses, these large academic institutions.
They are denying them of truth.
We are all victims, not just me.
When they suppress free speech, it's not just me who's at a loss.
It is that every single person who hopes to attend, who doesn't get to listen, they are also losing out.
I've been overwhelmed with the support, with the encouragement, with the amount of students who are showing up, which I know you're feeling as well.
I have been so just revitalized and inspired to see you on all these college campuses, whether it's Penn State, whether it's Arizona State, seeing the sea of red MAGA hats.
That should show you.
My generation, Gen Z, we are amped up now more than ever, and it's because we see what's at stake.
And we understand it's our future that we must fight for it.
I totally agree. Let's put 178 up on screen.
This was like 10 protesters that cost us $10,000.
And this just got up on screen.
This is the racket that happens on these college campuses.
Riley, you're also involved in this growing and developing story.
Remember, Kamala Harris wants men in female sports.
She's perfectly okay with it.
Donald Trump is morally clear on this topic that men will not be in female sports.
You have filed a lawsuit claiming A player for San Jose State's volleyball team is a biological male.
So far, four programs have forfeited matches against this team rather than play against a dude, which is a great development.
This is growing, everybody.
This is Utah State, Boise State, Southern Utah, and Wyoming.
Reportedly, the biological male, Blair Fleming, is capable of spiking a volleyball at 80 miles an hour or more, creating a lot of health concerns for women on opposing teams.
Riley, tell us about this and just connect the dots.
Kamala Harris is perfectly fine with dudes competing against your daughters.
Not only is she perfectly fine for it, she encourages it.
That's what we've seen as of August 1st of this year.
The Biden-Harris administration has gone forward with a new proposal of Title IX. They've abolished Title IX as it once stood for the past 52 years as it was originally implemented.
They have abolished that and they have now equated sex with gender identity, meaning they encourage what we see at San Jose State University, which is A man towering over, I mean, 6'2", playing on the women's team.
There are growing numbers of concerns of these female athletes on other teams, their safety.
We saw, actually, they played University of Delaware not too long ago.
We watched him drill this volleyball into a young girl's face.
It was the game-winning point.
They're undefeated this season.
They've never been undefeated in the past season.
I think three, four seasons as a team this far along into the season.
But now, as you said, four universities have forfeited, which is great.
The girls have actually voted and they have voted.
We don't want to play this.
We know we're going to suffer a loss, but it's a worthy loss.
It is a loss we are willing to take because the cause is necessary and it is worthwhile.
What I can tell you, Charlie, in talking to these girls, even talking to some of his teammates, some of the girls on the team, one of the girls, actually the girl in this photo behind him, number three, that's Blair Fleming, the male, the girl behind him in this photo, her name is Brooke Sessler, and she has actually joined on to her lawsuit suing the NCAA. She says this is wrong.
This is discriminatory towards us as women, and we want no part of it.
That's the overall general consensus of how we feel.
And it's not because these teams of Boise State and University of Wyoming and Southern Utah and Utah State, it's not because they're teams full of staunch young conservative women.
No, these are teams of women who have worked their entire lives to compete and to succeed at the highest level.
But because of the progressive policies put in place by the NCAA, by their individual universities, and by the Kamala Harris Biden administration, the rug is being stripped out from under them.
And they acknowledge it's wrong, they acknowledge it's unfair, and that it's unsafe.
I hope everyone understands this is one of the simple moral issues of our time.
This is 184, which you would know the name, Riley, which is the female team.
This is from North Carolina, I think, of the female volleyball player who got hit in the head by a trans man is now paralyzed with brain damage.
I think you probably know the details here.
Let's go right there. Boom. Hit in the head, paralyzed by brain damage.
So... Modern day feminism brought to you by Kamala Harris is men being able to give brain damage to women in female sports.
This is not complicated.
This is not hard. It is so simple.
But I just want to add, the fact that teams are starting to forfeit and boycott, that is a new development.
We would not have seen that a couple years ago.
It just used to be the way of kind of sit down, roll over, shut up.
And this really credits you, Riley.
You've been leading this movement. And...
We have to now culminate this in a political victory where Donald Trump wins and he says to the Department of Education, you do not get federal funding if biological men are able to compete against women.
It has to be that simple. Executive order.
we can end this thing with a presidential victory with a lot of force from the federal government.

Riley, you have a new piece out, outkick.com.
Here's why my generation is ready to vote for Donald Trump.
And I want to give Riley Gaines credit.
She has been terrific on supporting President Trump and advocating for Trump.
She spoke at our event back in August, which means a lot to me and to the movement, because your voice in that space is important.
I know some people say, oh, Riley, just focus on the men and female sports.
But Riley's gone all in on President Trump, making sure he's going to win.
You deserve a lot of credit for that.
And a lot of people look up to you.
Riley, Tell us about your piece and why you are doing everything you can to get President Trump across the finish line.
Absolutely. Well, Charlie, to be totally honest, I'm inspired by you and by the work that you guys are doing at Turning Point by people like Scott Kressler, who really have taken the initiative of engaging voters, but Turning Point specifically, engaging and inspiring and mobilizing young voters.
I understand this is a demographic that historically does not typically vote conservatively, especially young women.
But now it just feels different.
The energy feels different. Watching President Trump, of course, at the Alabama-Georgia game, the reception that he got there, in total contrast to the reception that Tim Walz received at the Michigan-Minnesota game, On top of, like I said, what we see at Penn State, these universities, the viral sounds on TikTok of they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats.
I mean, young people are dancing to this now remix sound that has gone viral.
The energy now is different than before.
And so what I laid out in this piece are five main reasons why the youth will turn out for Trump.
Number one, of course, economic growth and job opportunities.
Number two, free speech is on the ballot.
Number three, outsider perspective.
Young people love to buck the system, and that's what we see President Trump as.
He is this figure who is anti-establishment.
There's only one political figure who has been indicted and targeted in the way that he has, the lawfare that he has faced, now the iconic mugshot.
They have tried to bankrupt him.
They have tried to keep him off the ballot.
I think that's a draw to young people.
Of course, the security issue, what we are seeing at the border, how our law
and order has just been totally corrupted in this country and how the Republican
party, number five, how the Republican party is now the party of unity.
The other side of the aisle, they claim to be the party that of course is tolerant
and inclusive and embraces diversity.
Well, guess what? They're lying to you.
They do not embrace diversity.
They do not, certainly do not embrace diverse thought.
It is the Republican Party now who does.
It was super cool. I was actually at the rally in Arizona, put on by Turning Point, where RFK Came out.
He endorsed Trump at this rally.
It was remarkable, the reception that he received.
Now we have this new slogan of Make America Healthy Again.
We've got former Democrats like Tulsi Gabbard, of course, Elon Musk, who has done more for free speech in this country than any other person, hands down.
It is the Republican Party that is the party of unity, and it appeals to young voters like myself.
I love that. You have Elon Musk, you have Bobby Kennedy, you have Tulsi Gabbard.
And Riley, we're seeing a big change here.
What is your advice on how to win over, let's just say, open-minded young women voters?
Unfortunately, far too many are on the left, as you well know.
But there's a fair amount that are open-minded and fair-minded.
What issues, what topics, what approaches are persuasive in trying to win over younger female voters?
You know, maybe I'm biased here, but what I believe and what has really disheartened me to see is that the gender ideology movement has escaped the past three national debates that we have had.
I wish so desperately that this is a topic that would get brought up because...
Imagine how powerful it would have been.
Tim Walls the other day was talking about abortion.
He's so passionate about it, right?
He's going off into how basically women should be able to abort and dismember their developing child up to nine months I wish so badly.
In that moment, there's a clip of him saying, we're pro-women.
I wish so badly that JD Vance would have looked at him and said, pro-women, okay.
Well, what about the 16,000, almost 16,000 rapists, known rapists, that have entered this country illegally?
Is that pro-women?
Or what about allowing men into women's sports or into your daughter's locker rooms?
Is that really what pro-women is?
How in the world... Can these fools claim to defend what they can't even define?
I wish this is an issue that would get brought up because I think it would appeal to a lot of young women like myself.
They claim to care about women.
They do not.
They do not love women.
No, they just love death and they just love destruction.
That is what we have seen from the other side.
I cringe.
I cringe watching Democrats talk about their love for women.
All 203 in the House voted against the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act.
158 Democrats in the House voted against the Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act.
These people don't love women.
They're lying. They're gaslighting.
It's what they're good at. Well said, Riley Gaines.
Riley, we'll see you at many of our upcoming events.
Thank you for your leadership and for your defense of President Trump and our movement.
Thank you. Absolutely.

We are attempting to get Corey Mills here.
So let's play some tape of him.
So Corey Mills actually, he does not, I don't think he's representing North Carolina, if I'm not mistaken.
I think he's from Florida.
That's right, he is a representative from the 7th Congressional District in Florida.
He's volunteering his time to come up and help the people of North Carolina.
He's been doing a great job of that. I want to play some tape here of Corey Mills.
This is how FEMA, the federal government, is missing in action because it has diverted resources for immigration resettlement.
Let me say that again. According to Corey Mills, the federal government Is not able to properly respond to what's happening in North Carolina, which is terrible flooding, because the federal government is too busy helping foreigners that have broken into America.
Let's play Cut 164.
Delivering insulin, oxygen bottles.
A lot of people, it's not just food and water and non-perishables, but it's medications that they're short on.
So trying to fulfill those needs until the federal government can get up and do what they need to be doing.
So that's really where the missing piece is, is the federal piece.
And again, let's go ahead and point out the obvious, which is that FEMA had utilized a large majority of the personnel who should be here taking care of this to be set and set up Replaced or repurposed, if you will, for immigration resettlement when we need to be focusing on Americans and what's going on, whether it be in Maui, Palestine, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, or Tennessee.
So, FEMA has run out of money for Hurricane Helene while spending hundreds of millions on migrants.
That is the centersquare.com that is reporting.
And AP News says this, Mayorkas warns that FEMA doesn't have enough funding to last through the hurricane season.
Now, FEMA, of course, is the federal emergency management agency that operates to try to respond to crises like this.
So, your federal government is forsaking American citizens that are literally drowning in North Carolina.
And prioritizing foreigners that are breaking into the country.
Let me tell you who they are prioritizing.
They're prioritizing people that are...
Another caravan is coming to the country right now, by the way.
Put 175 up as B-roll.
This is who Kamala Harris is prioritizing.
The foreigners that are coming up right now through the Darien Gap, that's them.
That's where your money is going.
Your emergency management taxpayer money is not going to help your fellow countrymen.
It's going to help people that are breaking into the nation.
FEMA's role, by the way, is natural disasters.
It's not for foreigners or migration.
FEMA is now subsidizing the mass migration.
Your taxpayer dollars are helping the breaking in of your nation.
And these foreigners will get more money than hurricane victims.
Ukraine will get more money than these hurricane victims.
When Donald Trump says America first, this is what he means.
Now understand, the ruling class in D.C. has total contempt for North Carolina, Western North Carolina, for Asheville, for Boone, because this is conservative country.
Why would you take care of your own people, just like East Palestine?
These are conservative white Christians.
Let's just let them drown.
Now, we don't know actually how many Americans or North Carolinians have died in this flooding.
I go to CNN.com.
Not a whisper. About the flooding in North Carolina.
The media has a total blackout of what's happening in our own country.
And your taxpayer dollars are going to subsidize the breaking in of our beloved country.
And this is a pattern.
Americans were left behind in Afghanistan.
East Palestine was forgotten.
What happened in the Maui fires by the way?
That was a strange thing.
How many people died there? Instead, we have Kamala Harris doing a photo op wearing a crisis jacket promising $750 apiece.
Play cut $177.
And the federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has included FEMA providing $750 for folks who need immediate needs being met, such as food, baby formula, and the like.
And you can apply now for anyone who's watching this who has been affected.
There are FEMA personnel who are going door-to-door to interact personally with folks, especially those who do not have electricity, but also that aid, if you have electricity, can be applied for online, and I encourage people to do that.
FEMA will just basically verify your address, and then the process should take hold.
She couldn't care less for the people of North Carolina.
Let me tell you what she should do if she was a leader.
She would say, I am mobilizing every military asset nearby.
We are going to have hundreds of thousands of people come and offer relief.
There will not be a single person that goes to that electricity within a week or two.
And we will do whatever we can.
We will have the full force of the federal government help.
Instead, she's reading off some script saying, here's 750 bucks.
This is a North Carolina resident on the lack of federal response.
Again, remember, your government hates you.
Your government despises you.
They don't care about what you believe.
They don't care about your worldview.
If you're drowning, it's irrelevant to them.
And I've honestly spent a couple days to not do this topic because I've been giving the federal government the benefit of the doubt.
I know they haven't earned it, but I said, okay, come on.
They got to at least get their act together.
And they have it. This has been a reprehensible, repulsive response.
And as Corey Mills said on television, the money that should be spent on all of this...
The money that should be spent on helping Americans is being spent to facilitate mass migration on the southern border.
Do you guys get luxury hotels paid for by taxpayer dollars?
Anyone in the audience get a luxury hotel?
Well, if you break into the country, you get a luxury hotel in downtown New York.
When's the last time you got a flight paid for for you?
Well, if you break into our country, you get a taxpayer-funded flight.
Is your cell phone bill covered?
If you break into our country, you get a taxpayer-funded cell phone bill.
Do you guys get your food for free?
If you break into this country, you guys get taxpayer-funded food stamps.
$1 billion of FEMA money has now gone to illegals.
Of FEMA. Which is hilarious, by the way, because the fact they're using FEMA is actually acknowledging that the southern border is a crisis, by definition, because it is the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Let's play cut 176, please.
When we heard that Biden was just going to be, you know, flying around, it kind of just made us feel like, you know, as our president, you know, where is that, like, guidance?
Where, like, you know, you're supposed to be kind of here helping us with this.
And just almost like it's like almost a sense of abandonment, you know.
And like I said, you know, it's mainly just the community coming together and helping each other out with all of this.
It's the community helping the community, wiping out one of the most red parts of North Carolina.
Yes, I know Asheville is not red.
I know that. It's like a hippie colony.
But all the outskirts of Western North Carolina are some of the reddest parts of the country.
And that's not insignificant.
The more conservative that you are, like East Palestine, the more Trump you are, your federal government just doesn't care about you.
Oh, your border is getting invaded?
Eh, I don't care. However, if a bunch of foreigners We're dying and drowning.
This would be the number one news story in the country.
Just think about it. Remember when a bunch of Border Patrol allegedly whipped migrants on the southern border?
That was the number one news story in the country.
Yet Americans are drowning in North Carolina and the federal government barely lifts a finger.
And then Alejandro Mayorkas says, yeah, I mean, we're out of money because we spent too much money on the people breaking into the United States of America.
This is Joe Biden announcing $2.4 billion for Ukraine and no more aid for Hurricane Helene.
Let me just repeat, the ruling consensus in D.C. is that the homeland of the country is Is insignificant and an annoyance.
The wars abroad are the priority.
Play cut 16. I'm proud to announce a new $2.4 billion package of security assistance.
We've given them everything that we have.
We're on the ground ahead of time, so we're working hard.
Are there any more resources the federal government could be giving them?
No, we've pre-planned a significant amount of it, even though they didn't ask for it yet.
It's an insult to every one of you.
And that is the America last agenda of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
So far this year, the United States has given $24.4 billion to Ukraine, $11.3 billion to Israel, $1.9 billion to Ethiopia, $1.6 billion to Jordan, $1.4 billion to Egypt, $1.1 billion to Afghanistan, $1.1 billion to Somalia, $1.1 billion to Yemen, $987 million to the Congo, $896 million to Syria, $9,000 per illegal immigrant that has entered the United States, and Americans who have lost everything to Hurricane Helene will be getting $750,
courtesy of FEMA. North Carolina Democrat Governor Roy Cooper still has not deployed 1,000 troops approved to assist in the Hurricane Helene recovery.
And a lot of people are asking, how is North Carolina going to vote in all this?
They're working on mobile precincts.
But honestly, the Democrats don't care.
They hope that everyone there is disenfranchised.
It's a super red part of the country.
This could flip North Carolina, by the way, to a blue state.
Maybe that's why they're doing it. This could flip North Carolina into a blue state.
Just the entire part of North Carolina is demolished, underwater, and flooded.
Millions of people that are suffering there.
And we have no idea how many have died.
No idea. And this is the commonality of the ruling regime.
$941 million of FEMA's funding went to illegals.
But not to you. I mean, you're just a sucker in this game.
If you're from Honduras or Venezuela, you matter far more to the federal government than the American people.
That's the way the current composition of the Kamala Harris worldview is.
You come last.
Foreigners come first.
This is a fundamental... They wonder why Trump is so popular.
They wonder why our movement is ascendant.
This is an elementary breakdown of why government exists.
Government exists first and foremost to serve its citizens.
Not serve ideas or abstractions or foreigners.
But understand, as your fellow countrymen are drowning and babies are face down in rivers, your taxpayer dollars...
Being used for luxury hotels for a bunch of foreigners in downtown New York.

How did we get here?
How did we get to a place where the ruling regime has such contempt for its citizens, its stakeholders and cares about foreigners?
Well, number one, it's because we've had a uniparty that has never held this consensus accountable.
Number two, it's the administrative state, the fourth branch of government that calls the shots.
Originally, the founders' intent, and the founders got it right, was this idea of three branches of government.
Article I, Article II, Article III. The executive, the legislative, and the judicial.
You see, in the Constitution that lays out the seven articles of the U.S. Constitution, separation of powers is also...
Derived from the most important principle of government.
Consent of the governed.
Otherwise said, we give them orders.
They are there on our behalf.
This is why the administrative state, the fourth branch of government, is so dangerous and is so problematic.
The fourth branch of government, definitionally, does not take its orders from the people.
When they say democracy, when the ruling regime says democracy, what they mean is that You vote for what we think is best for you, and if you don't vote for what we think is best for you, we're gonna do it anyway.
If you don't vote for what we think is the right decision, we're just gonna do it by fiat, by rule, by regulation.
So the founders had it right.
The founders' original intent was the structure and the form of government must be derived from the people, and the people are the sovereign.
We, the people of the United States, And now we have we, the administrative state.
So they don't take orders from you.
Now, I'm not going to say that elections have no consequence, but elections have waned in their consequence.
Oh, do we have finally Corey Mills now?
All right, Corey Mills joins us from North Carolina.
Corey, you're in North Carolina.
Give us the update here. What is going on?
So I appreciate you taking the time, Charlie.
Hopefully my columns are okay.
So we've been over the last four days.
We've dropped about a little over 18,000 pounds of supplies from water to food,
medicines like insulin. We've had different things for Starlink systems
that we've been setting up to try and get connectivity.
That will reduce the amount of missing person reports that we have because in some cases we've got 1,000 to 1,200 unconfirmed reports.
But that's also due to the fact that a lot of family members just haven't heard from them since all the comms and the actual storm took place.
We've gone everywhere from Asheville to South Toe to Broad River to Banner Elk.
We're right now in Mountain Heights High School, which is outside of Burnsville.
We've been up to Poplar. We were out in Pensacola just recently.
And so we're continuing to work SAR missions, medevacs, and just waiting for FEMA and everyone else to start stepping up.
So really quick, Corey, what is the death toll here?
We haven't got an accurate death toll.
How many people approximately have died here?
Well, right now it's being reported at least 170, but I can tell you, I was in Pensacola, North Carolina, up in the mountains yesterday.
I talked to the fire chief, Harris, and he had four more fatalities.
He had two individuals who had been washed down the river.
They've been unable to find the bodies on.
He's got a couple of landslide areas, and his exact comment, and I'm quoting him exactly, will be recovering bodies throughout the end of the year.
Through the end of the year.
And so, Corey, you made news where you said that the federal government is spending money on migrants and foreigners not here.
Educate our audience on what FEMA is spending money on.
Well, last time I checked, the Federal Emergency Management Agency was supposed to respond to natural disasters that are impacting Americans here at home.
But the reality is that they've allocated nearly a billion We need to start prioritizing our own borders over those 9,000 miles away.
We start prioritizing Americans in need.
We don't need to repeat what happened in Maui, what happened in Palestine, Ohio.
We need to get full Title 10 enactment by the executive branch to get our military and everyone in here to start providing the necessary time.
Because Charlie, here's the thing. Once you hit that 96-hour critical point from the storm, we start looking more from rescues into recoveries.
And that's a very scary thing when you start thinking about where these people are remote and isolated in mountain areas.
Okay, Corey, really quick.
You've been through a lot of disaster zones and military deployments.
Just describe to our audience here the tragedy, the human cost.
Describe to us what you are seeing and witnessing.
Well, look, I helped to conduct the very first successful overland rescue of Americans in Afghanistan after the botched withdrawal.
I've rescued over 255 people who are evac'd out of Israel only days after the October 7th horrendous incident.
I've been in Haiti, rescued 23 Americans by Hilo, 59 children who were mentally, physically
disabled after what was going on there.
I've been in many Florida hurricanes.
In 2021, my district was hit by Hurricane Nicole and Ian.
This is one of the most devastating.
There are complete cities that are completely wiped out right now.
People don't have power.
People are running low on food and water and medication, and it's civilians who are stepping
up and making it happen.
Very good.
Corey Mills, thanks for all that you're doing.
Please join the program.
Let's get some better connection.
Obviously, it's not your fault.
So please talk soon.
