Far cry from the last admin that said PR didn’t deserve the help.
Paper towels
Last administration was a disaster of its own.
300 million dollars a day, seven days a week, spent in Afghanistan for 20 long years, most went into purses of military industrial complex corporations.
Of course, no funds for the aging, rusting and decaying U. S. infrastructures
@Sniffy Walkaway Biden Deathsentence and Abort are causing preventable deaths of HUNDREDS of Americans DAILY. But you are silent on that.
@Waryaa Wariiri trump is so old – he might die by 2024 – or probably be looking for a new running mate – hey, who better than one of these inspiring dopes?
@Sniffy Walkaway Biden NO…an insurgent released by the Trump/Taliban connection killed those marines
Awesome!❤️🇺🇸
That is a red state. They will just be happy if you throw them some rolls of paper towels. I mean they cheered it before.
NYC definitely needed some cleaning today 🤣🤣
@Florida Man You thought about that comment, I mean you really thought about it. And you still posted it. That’s pathetic – I see why you named yourself ‘Florida Man’
What are you smoking? Puerto Rico isn’t a state and it’s a welfare commonwealth.
@Warren Goss Maybe the same Covfefe you are?
@Warren Goss “Puerto Rico isn’t a state and it’s a welfare commonwealth.”
Like Kentucky and Florida?
Another Red state sucking up Fed money that the Blue states provide. In this instance, however, I’m happy to have paid my share.
Umm are you totally dumb? Have you taken a look at New York and New Jersey the last couple of days?
SEVERAL WEEKS without power??!! WTF! The remotest parts of Mogadishu or Monrovia have better utility service! America’s infrastructure is a complete joke …
did you forget texas?
Time to have that hard discussion about relocation from these dangerous places. The Cycle of rebuild/destruction/rebuild/destruction must end in these dangerous places like the coast of La. where I suppose it is cheap to buy land. But…
I have seen the same thing in Laguna Beach, CA and Malibu, CA. The canyons have both repeatedly burned and then flooded/landslide. They just keep rebuilding. Maybe they can do like Biden and Build Back Better. 😉
Retool and retrain the military thatʻs just been withdrawn from Afghanistan and put them to peaceful use here, helping their fellow citizens.
EXACTLY!! Did you see that Linkin Park music video of what SHOULD have happened during Katrina. The Saints are Coming. Would like to finally see that for real.
How will they get food to people in the coming weeks? Groceries closed. Power out.
Evacuate them to closed military bases or convention centers with hotels and restaurants.
Set them up in military tents. Certainly it is warm enough. First move them 100 miles or more to dry land and have the National Guard feed them and attend to their other needs.
Can’t we bring in some cruise ships to house these people?! Please!
Certainly no person with any brains wants to vacation on these virus incubators, but as temporary housing until these people can be moved to viable land, cruise ship could work. Goodness knows they have plenty of water to keep them afloat.
@ruth depew These climate victims have no water, shelter, electricity etc…. Cruise ships can house up to 6,000 people. And while we ‘re at it ,naval hospital ships. Glad you see this as an option. Blessings
School busses to provide transportation to the ships
Thank you President Biden for everything you’re doing. Can you imagine if that orange joke was in charge. I shudder to even think about it.
@Sniffy Walkaway Biden ….then the last administration caused the deaths of 600K Americans.
Biden is destroying America. He’s a demented vegetable.
@Violante de Rojas Obongo and Biden murdered thousands of innocent children in the middle east.
@Violante de Rojas Democrats murdered 60 million babies.
@Violante de Rojas China intentionally infected the entire world, aver 4 million dead.
Whos pickin on ya today Democrats..lol..
Because of the economic crisis and the rate of unemployment, now is the best time to invest and make money 💯
I’m really happy with my first Investment with Mrs Patricia Donna gave me the assurance that has made me invest without the fear of losing , i got four of my friends involved with her already
Yeah sure,I’ve got 12th winning thanks to Mrs Patricia , she’s really the best , I have made £16,200 in 18 days of working with her
Ever since I met mrs Patricia for the first time at a conference in manchester i invested £25,000 and traded in one month making close to £143,670
This is the kind of info we don’t get from most YouTubers .l will get in touch with her right away, I’m really impressed
Alot of success stories, she must be honest and trustworthy for people to talk this good about her.
Are the stations really out of gas, or don’t have electricity to power the pumps?
Both.
Hi Rachel Anne.👋🍺.
Me, i’ve conquered worse.👍.
Really need to build up some infrastructure junctions that can be restarted quickly after hurricanes, or in the case of Texas cold weather, or hot weather.
This lady sounds dry as shxt sheaves it seem like everything is fine 🤔
what’s with Red States living without electricity for weeks, like with Texas Winter of 1888 this past winter.
I’d be moving. Doesn’t seem like there’s many safe places whether due to a states politics or climate impact.
Might be time to immigrate.
If they had solar power, they would not have to worry about the heat.
