MEDIA BLACKOUT: America’s Poorest Counties Devastated By Catastrophic Flooding

More Perfect Union | November 15, 2025



Trump wants to demolish FEMA and says the states will take care of disasters themselves. To test this theory, we talked to the West Virginians who have been slammed by historic flooding in recent weeks. It turns out the state’s flood protection fund is out of funds — and as a result, people are suffering. John Russell reports for More Perfect Union from West Virginia.

    That’s it! The oligarch’s media doesn’t want anybody to know about your life. You don’t matter what matters is they took the money meant for you in your time of tragedy and spent it on the presidents golf course but let the most ignorant and Fox entertainment brainwashed continue to ensure this happens. Stop the insanity people get out there and vote!

    The government ain’t gonna help those American people shit the government doesn’t give a shit about the American people. They are give a shit about the legal immigrants. Give them free, healthcare, free housing all this bullshit so no they don’t give a shit about us. They rather wait till we die while the Democrats take over the fucking thing and ruined the shit. I hope your buddies and all the friends you have at home and be all right but you’re that one guy is right though the government ain’t going to do shit for them.

    FEMA has been an extremely corrupt organization. These floods happened during the Biden administration in NC, FEMA refused to help the citizens. It was unbelievable. I hope FEMA gets dismantled.

    It's always so sad seeing people like this realize they need government assistance, not even knowing that they've been actively voting against those exact programs for their entire life. We're so propagandized as a people, and we're largely too undereducated to see it.

    The revolutionary violence of the working class is a just and necessary reaction to the daily economic, political, and social violence that our ruling class does unto us every second of every day. "When our time comes, we will make no excuses for the terror"
