James O’Keefe has released new findings on FEMA’s response to Hurricanes Milton and Helene, revealing startling deficiencies in disaster relief. The O’Keefe Media Group’s latest video highlights empty disaster recovery centers and neglected communities still struggling months after the storms.
In North Carolina, residents have expressed outrage over the lack of assistance. During a Buncombe County Commissioners meeting, one individual warned of the risk of fatalities during the winter, saying, “We don’t want to have an epidemic of people freezing to death.” Others criticized FEMA for failing to show up in affected areas.
Green Mountain resident Tammy Kelly shared harrowing accounts of storm damage, including the discovery of human remains in flood debris. Kelly expressed disappointment with FEMA’s inability to provide basic shelter, arguing that storage units would be better than tents.
Earlier installments of O’Keefe’s investigation revealed allegations of political bias, including claims that FEMA workers skipped homes displaying Trump signs in Florida after Hurricane Milton. Such accusations have added to the mounting criticism of FEMA’s handling of disaster relief.
O’Keefe also documented an attempted visit to a FEMA compound in North Carolina. Federal workers avoided questions and turned their badges around, raising concerns about transparency and accountability within the agency.
As residents continue to struggle, O’Keefe’s investigation has drawn attention to FEMA’s apparent failures. Many are now calling for immediate reforms to ensure disaster victims receive the help they desperately need.
