A volunteer group called Savage Operations Center just delivered over 500,000 pounds of supplies to the devastated areas of western North Carolina via a fleet of private helicopters.
Organized by Adam Smith, the Savage Operations Center is utilizing dozens of private helicopters to deliver much-needed aid to the thousands of people who are still trapped in the Appalachian Mountains following Hurricane Helene.
“The people of Swannanoa, Bat Cave, and Chimney Rock are going to be here, and they’ll still be rebuilding their lives and trying to rebuild their homes and trying to figure out what’s next,” Smith commented.
“There’s homes that are washed out; people have lost their lives. There’s a lot of people left with nothing. There’s a lot of displaced people. The big challenge now, moving forward: It’s not so much the rescue but it’s how do we find a place for the displaced families?”

Over the weekend, Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, interviewed Steve Slepcevic from Strategic Response Partners about what is happening on the ground in North Carolina as private citizens rise to the occasion by helping their fellow man. The Health Ranger also confirmed that the first 10 pallets from his own supplies are now on the ground as well – watch below:
So far, the Savage Operations Center has raised more than $180,000 in a GoFundMe, this as the federal government is simply too busy sending aid to Ukraine, Israel and illegal aliens to care about American citizens who lost their homes and livelihoods.
There is growing speculation that the timing of this disaster is suspicious, especially so close to Election Day and in an area that generally leans “red” politically, save for Asheville. Is there a conspiracy afoot or is it all just a coincidence?
“Where is Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos, Larry Ellison, and the Walmart family?” one commenter asked. “Each could donate $1 billion easily.”
“That is a great point but they are not here to help people – they are here to prey on people,” responded another.
Many people are also furious that the federal government is actually turning private citizens who want to help away from Asheville. The claim is that private rescue operations are “interfering” with the work of the government, but people on the ground say the government is not doing much of anything to try to help.
In an official statement, President Biden claimed that 500 troops with “advanced technological assets” have been deployed to North Carolina to “assist with the response and recovery efforts.”
“Fifteen-hundred troops will now support thousands of National Guardsman and federal personnel on the ground,” Biden said. “My administration will continue to stand with all impacted by these storms.”
As of this writing, the official death toll exceeds 230 people, making Helene the deadliest hurricane since Katrina in 2005, which killed 1,850 people. And do not forget that Milton is just days away from striking Florida, which will create even more devastation this close to Election Day.
“FEMA is shutting down interstates and main highways in North Carolina around the hardest-hit areas to stop rescue workers and shipments,” a commenter added to the conversation.
“This is treason and mass murder to start a civil war and replace the 2024 elections with martial law to keep Trump out of office.”
Western North Carolina will likely remain a disaster zone for many months to come. Learn more about the fallout at Disaster.news.
