@clintruin @BinroHeretic @angelastella @lednaBM -- And that's why it's so fucking scary that the #MAGA crowd is believing everything Trump says. #Springfield #Aurora #Asheville #FEMA #Helene #Milton

Kamala connects climate change to $612 million smart-grid investment in the wake of Helene and Milton.

It's like the New Deal, but greener!

“Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities” -- Voltaire

This is what TRUMP and the #MAGA world has created.
Do you really really really believe they need to be in charge?

“Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities” -- Voltaire

People REALLY need to read that quote and understand what it means.

I was so lucky in #Milton , just minor damage, and no flooding, I can't imagine having to finagle that with using precautions. Since I got power back, I lent my generator and gas to another covider in my area but like 30 min away bc I know it's hard to get help, and we all lost many connections through this all, they might not get power back til Thursday

I survived #Milton hi #Mastodon but there's still #ongoing #MutualAid that I need to survive #Poverty

3 days left and there has been no movement since I managed to squeeze out the goal last week

We didn't get funds on time to get supplies I've been trying to get for 6 MONTHS to be able to get through things like this with safety

I don't just put goals out there haphazardly or for fun, they're essential things that I cannot go without, they're not luxuries

Not sure what a 15 foot storm surge looks like? Here's a video from two years ago.

Anecdotally, my grandmother's sister and her husband decided to ride out this very storm. Their condo took a full year of work to be habitable again, as nearly everything was a total loss. They were on the third floor (what some countries call second floor).

Hurricanes are serious. When you're told to evacuate, listen. If you don't you may end up dead.

#Biden’s appearance Thurs indicates how deeply the federal govt wants to get their messaging in front of the deluge of #misinformation that started spreading in the wake of #Hurricane #Helene & proliferates after Hurricane #Milton this week. It’s the 3rd time #POTUS has addressed the country about the storm in roughly 24hrs—each time, making sure to directly denounce the spreading of #lies while calling out one of the most prominent promoters of storm-related #disinformation, #Trump, by name.

Asked by reporters after his remarks at the White House whether he had spoken w/ #Trump, #Biden responded indignantly: “Are you kidding me?”

He then looked at the camera w/a message directly for his predecessor: “Mr. President Trump — former President Trump — get a life, man. Help these people.”

#POTUS #Biden tells #Trump to ‘get a life’ over storm #disinformation, promises #Milton survivors they’ll get the help they need

President Joe Biden said Thurs that the federal government is rushing to help those affected by #Hurricane Milton — & had a stark message for his predecessor, who has been spreading #lies about the federal response.

“Those who engage in such #lies are undermining confidence in the rescue & recovery work that’s ongoing,” #Biden said. “These lies are also harmful to those who most need help. Lives are on the line, people are in desperate situations — have the decency to tell them the truth.”

And asked again as he left the room whether he planned to speak w/ #Trump, #Biden responded simply: “No.”

“Vice President #Harris & I have been in constant contact w/state & local officials,” #POTUS said. “We’re offering everything they need.”

#Biden’s most forceful message came regarding the swirl of #disinformation & social media #lies about the storms that have spread over the last month.

Some of the #misinformation has led to #aid workers receiving #DeathThreats. Federal ofcls warned that in some cases the rumors are designed to prevent people who need help from seeking it.

"If you are a weatherperson, you’re a target. The same goes for journalists, election workers, scientists, doctors, and first responders. These jobs are different, but the thing they share is that they all must attend to and describe the world as it is. This makes them dangerous to people who cannot abide by the agonizing constraints of reality
