Is FEMA working against private citizens who are trying to help In North Carolina?
Elon Musk shared a message from one of his SpaceX engineers who is on the ground in Ashville, North Carolina trying to assist victims of Hurricane Helene. In the message, the engineer reveals that FEMA is making it difficult — “actively blocking shipments” from people trying to help.
From Elon Musk on X:
Just received this note from a SpaceX engineer helping on the ground in North Carolina.
@FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help!
“Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives.

It’s very real and scary how much they have taken control to stop people helping. We are blocked now on the shipments of new starlinks coming in until we get an escort from the fire dept. but that may not be enough.”
