A Tragic Loss Demands Accountability
Yesterday afternoon, as snow began to fall in Swannanoa, North Carolina, a husband, wife, and their 18-month-old baby were finally given a glimmer of hope after enduring months in a tent on their property. Their home, destroyed by Hurricane Helene, left them with no shelter until a donated RV arrived to provide warmth and safety.
However, at 5 p.m., a repossession truck arrived, seizing the donated RV and leaving this family with no choice but to return to the freezing tent in the middle of a snowstorm. That night, temperatures plummeted, and this young couple woke to the unimaginable tragedy of their baby’s death from hypothermia.
To FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, President Joe Biden, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, and Governor Roy Cooper: the blood of this innocent child is on your hands. Your inaction, mismanagement, and negligence have directly contributed to this tragedy. You have failed the American people, and justice demands that you are held accountable.
This is not hearsay or exaggeration. Leaders from four collaborative organizations, along with a team from one of my own organizations, were there to witness and confirm this heartbreaking event.
It’s time for us to rise and demand change. Peaceful protests are already being organized at the Governor’s Mansion to shine a light on this gross failure of leadership. If you are ready to join this fight for justice, private message me here on X.
We must force our government to serve the will of the people—not abandon them in their hour of need. This child’s death must not be in vain.

The report company used social media posts to track Download the RV. This is why NC Needs to pass moratorium against these things as well as eviction and foreclosures!
