An 18 month old baby is now dead from the cold, while illegals are shacked up in 5 star hotels. This is another senseless death by the hands of an incompetent, useless, criminal government.

How do we know this is actually true?

That is horrible and tragic, full stop. There needs to be an investigation when Trump's people come in and people need to be held accountable and heads need to roll if negligence is found.


As for the family, does anyone know if there weren't shelters, churches, or anywhere, they could have gone to stay warm when they lost their trailer?

I'd imagine OP can provide a link to a non-social media source, like a local news website where the family is from.

Inside the tweet it says it's been verified. Should would be nice to know for those who require the legacy media to report before they believe a story. it's the problem we have been facing for a while. The legacy media cheerleads for one side, so why believe what they say?

Maybe they were overlooked by fema for having a trump sign in their front yard.

Sorry but I don't just accept what some rando on X posts, regardless of ideological bend.

Eta: Also, that's not verification.

That would be like me saying: TAMU1990 beat his wife the other day. I verified it as did a couple of other dudes who were with me that day. Basically, take my word for it!

Is there a link to the government (local or national) that verified it? Local news station, at least?

I'm sure governor cooper has a few spare bedrooms in his mansion he could spare.

Why does this board fall for junk on Twitter so much? There are zero other sources for this story, the area reports 1/10 inch of precipitation over the last several days and lowest temp appears to be briefly below freezing. Then for good measure they added in an evil repo man who came and put a family out of a donated RV in the middle of a snowstorm. Who actually believes this stuff?

🚨 BREAKING 🚨

Did an 18 month old baby freeze in Swannanoa? You’ve asked me for answers.

Here it is: NO.

Who is "this board?"

You know exactly what I am talking about. THIS board, the politics board, falls for internet rage bait fairly regularly, as evidenced by this very thread.

There are hundreds of people who post here. Are you included in "this board?"

Dude, if you are looking for a fight about something go somewhere else and pick a fight worth having. If you can't recognize the fact that there are routinely threads on this board started because the OP of the thread posts some fake internet BS I am not sure how to help you.

You realize that this happens everywhere on the internet, right? It's not an F16 thing. Look at the X thread linked.

Again, are you "this board?" You're posting here. People are skeptical every time stuff like this is posted. Are they "this board?" If you want to call people out for posting internet BS, man up and call them out individually. "This board" is just lazy.

Exactly the response I would expect on this board.

did some research, it appears it is not true.

🚨UPDATE🚨

It’s been a long day, y’all. And I have a lot to tell everyone regarding the baby in Swannanoa story. I was going to make a video - but painting kinda got in the way. Now I’ve got paint in my hair and a regular post will just have to do.

Here we go…

Just looked at your posting history. This is apparently your schtick. Are you an Aggie or just a townie?

Now I am interested, please go on, what exactly is my schtick?

Should have eaten their neighbors pets.
Or is that fake news still cool over here? I can't keep up

Maybe this thread has outlived its usefulness.

Is this a place FEMA skipped because they felt unsafe?

You know why that happens? Because Dems are so off the wall insane now that most have lost their skepticism. Today's satire is tomorrow's reality for the Mental Illness Party.
