Tennessee Flooding

700 Tennessee National Guard Deployed to Kuwait as State Struggles to Rescue Storm Victims

The Tennessee National Guard has been tasked with assisting citizens struggling in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, but they’re doing so without the help of over 700 of their men. They were deployed to Kuwait by the Biden-Harris regime.

As independent journalist Nick Sortor reported from the ground, civilians are having to help each other in Eastern Tennessee where catastrophic flooding continues to put lives at risk.

Sortor posted to Twitter:

The Tennessee National Guard is NOWHERE TO BE FOUND in Eastern TN, despite MASSIVE flooding and missing people

Why? BECAUSE BIDEN & HARRIS DEPLOYED THEM TO THE MIDDLE EAST TODAY.

WTF?

People are trapped in their homes, multiple towns are underwater, and utilities are out, so PRIVATE CITIZENS are being relied on to haul in pallets of water and food.

The state simply does not have the resources to handle all of this now that their National Guard is overseas.

@ChrisHallWx and I just delivered 50 pizzas to first responders and the hospital in Newport, TN. It’s the first hot, fresh food they’ve had since the storm.

THIS IS INSANE.

The task force of over 700 members of the Tennessee Army National Guard’s 278th Armored Cavalry Regiment left Saturday morning. According to Hoodline:

The deployment reflects the U.S. military’s continuing role in building partnerships and promoting self-reliance in the Middle East. By maintaining a military presence, conducting exercises, and fostering defense relationships, the Tennessee soldiers aim to strengthen regional security.

Add this to the growing list of poor Middle East decisions by the Biden-Harris regime.
