"Please do not donate to FEMA," Mikey, as he calls himself, says in the video below. "They are hindering a lot of what people are trying to accomplish out in the western part of the state."
Mikey suggests that people who want to donate send their hard-earned cash to local churches and nonprofit groups instead because they know better how to spend it on people in need.
"Try to find a nonprofit to donate to: a church, a local PD," Mikey says. "A lot of those are taking donations, sheriff's departments."
Welp There You Have It, Straight From Local Law Enforcement, DO NOT Donate To FEMA For Hurricane Helene Victims

Is FEMA trustworthy?
The department where Mikey works is one of the local police departments that is "running a bunch of stuff to the western part of the state," he suggests that do-gooders seek out something similar.
"FEMA doesn't understand that these Appalachian people are built differently," Mikey says. "I'm very familiar with them. They are not gonna stand by idly and have government officials tell them what to do."
"FEMA's playing a game of FAFO because free men don't ask for permission. Again, please donate and help these people out. They need us now more than ever."
Since FEMA is a federal agency, everyone who pays taxes inadvertently donates via their tax returns. What Mikey is referring to are donations made in excess of what is forced by law – he says to send that money to local sources instead.

"Donate to local churches with boots on the ground," wrote someone on X / Twitter in support of Mikey's message.
Another problem with FEMA is the claims that its personnel are turning away or even arresting volunteers who try to help. Volunteer Green Berets, for instance, tweeted that they are being told to leave upon arrival with medical support.
"What are they hiding!?!?" the "Green Beret Nap Time" (@GBNT1952) X / Twitter account wrote, along with the following text message screenshot:
?WOW!?
FEMA is turning away help and threatening to arrest volunteer Green Berets and other medical support if they enter the disaster area to help. What are they hiding!?!?

"More people need to understand that in our constitutional system, the government works for us and needs our permission," tweeted "Smitty's Corner" (@SmittysView). "That is why the Constitution was written the way it was. We are not servants of the government!"
Others talked about the large lithium deposits around Chimney Rock, King's Mountain, Albemarle, and other areas of western North Carolina that are now off-limits except to FEMA and the Department of Defense (DoD).
"And who gives final approval to the fed permit? VP Harris," one said.
