As the Biden administration leaves victims of Hurricane Helene to die, residents have no choice but to take matters into their own hands.
However, when one helicopter pilot stepped in to save his community, he was threatened with arrest.
South Carolina pilot Jordan Seidhom decided he couldn’t simply stand back and do nothing after Helene left hundreds of people stranded and wiped parts of the Southeast off the map.
“I have a helicopter, maybe I can help,” Seidhom thought, after reading about a family stranded without water on a mountain in Banner Elk, North Carolina.
With the help of his teenage son, he flew out bottled water and food to the family on Saturday, according to the New York Post. Then, they flew four other victims to safety, “including two women stranded at the top of a mountain and two vacationers trapped inside their Airbnb,” the NYP adds.
“They only had one day of supplies, which was gone by Saturday. They didn’t have any food, water, no running water, no power,” Seidhom told Queen City News.
“And we were coming back this direction anyway, so we actually took them to Charlotte-Douglas Airport and they were able to fly home from there,” Seidhom continued.
When Seidhom found another stranded husband and wife who “waved them down from their partially washed-away home,” he had his son step out on the side of a mountain to make room for one victim at a time.
Seidhom flew the wife to safety first, while his son waited with the husband for his return.
But as the heroic pilot was about to fly back to get them, a local official stopped him in his tracks.
Seidhom claims the official accused him of violating a flight restriction and threatened to have him arrested if he continued flying strangers to safety.
He was allowed to save his son, but forced to leave the stranded victim accompanying him stranded in his dilapidated driveway.

People in North Carolina still need help! They are still stranded. This man is on the ground/air doing rescues and is begging for military helicopters to help.

“Without helicopters, I can’t reach these people,” he said. “It doesn’t matter how many chainsaws and trucks I got, I can’t get to ‘em. They’re 10 miles in, 20 miles, 40 miles in the mountains. There’s no way to get with them or communicate with them.”
Did the hurricane wash your home away? Tough Crap! Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admits FEMA is too broke from throwing away $650 million on illegal aliens to give Helene’s victims more than $750 bucks.
Now FEMA doesn’t have enough money to cover the rest of the hurricane season.
