Kamala Harris to visit North Carolina areas ravaged by Helene on Saturday

Vice President Kamala Harris will visit North Carolina on Saturday to survey the catastrophic damage left across the state from Hurricane Helene, a White House official told McClatchy, days after making a similar trip to Georgia.

Harris will “survey the impacts of Hurricane Helene and receive an on-the-ground briefing about the continued recovery efforts that are occurring in communities across the state,” one official said. “The vice president will also provide updates on federal actions that are being taken to support emergency response and recovery efforts in North Carolina and other states throughout the southeast.”

The official did not specify where in the state Harris would visit.

Harris also spoke with North Carolina’s Democratic governor, Roy Cooper, to discuss the recovery efforts, the official added. She visited FEMA headquarters earlier in the week for a briefing and to thank federal personnel for their work on the emergency response.

Helene has claimed over 200 lives across the region, and hundreds remain missing. Over 1 million people are still without power nearly a week after the storm has passed.

He said if he was in charge he'd bomb nukes. The thing you want to bomb first is what he said. No one said no or how stupid or how crazy. They seemed to agree.

Really telling. He doesn't care how much destruction is done. As a psychopath/sociopath it's always the more pain the better for them. To love is to hurt. That's the way their twisted minds work.

Even if someone explained to him how destructive "bombing the nukes' would be he wouldn't change his mind. The worse, the better in their estimation.

He seized the idea from something President Biden said. Just to criticize and show what a boss he thinks he'd be by comparison he said he'd bomb what our wonderful leader said shouldn't be. Because he knows it must be bad if POTUS doesn't recommend it.

We know he doesn't understand anything about nuclear power. He wanted to nuke a hurricane. He is the very last person that the world needs in the most powerful job in the world.

We Got lucky last time. We have so much more to be really afraid of now.

Thanks for your reply, Dave Bowman.
