The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was founded on April 1st, 1979 under the Jimmy Carter Administration during the height of a nearly decade long stagflationary crisis and the Iranian oil crisis. Under Executive Order 12127, its stated goal was to centralize all disaster related efforts under a single top-down entity. Specifically, FEMA ended the more localized Civil Defense Agency, which was focused on community based emergency response, and it federalized all disaster coordination under a single top-down system controlled by the Oval Office.
FEMA was eventually placed under the purview of the Department of Homeland Security, creating even more centralization. The reason for FEMA according to the government is to aid Americans during and after a national level disaster event; anything from earthquakes to hurricanes to terrorist attacks.
That said, it should also be noted that FEMA was officially created on April Fool’s Day.
The true purpose of FEMA has long been obscured but some disturbing truths have been exposed in the past. The declassification of a program called Rex 84 (tied to Operation Garden Plot) revealed that FEMA was working directly with the Department of Defense on a hypothetical strategy to round up and detain large numbers of civilians considered a “threat to national security.” In other words, FEMA was to act as a tool for helping suppress civil disturbances, it was not necessarily designed to help Americans in times of need.
This was likely always the intent behind the founding of FEMA, but George H.W. Bush and Oliver North are cited as the men that truly militarized FEMA in the early 1980s. The goal to establish a mechanism for controlling domestic political dissent and suspending constitutional freedoms was exposed not long after FEMA’s founding. Oliver North was visibly enraged when the subject was broached in a congressional hearing during the Iran/Contra scandal.
It should be mentioned that the REX 84 documents do not list FEMA as a primary agency in control of civil disturbance response. This is where the accusations of “conspiracy theory” usually come from – FEMA is not the end-all-be-all agency in charge of locking down American rebellion. In fact, FEMA’s role is strangely ambiguous and is not clearly defined. All that is known is that they are indeed an element of Operation Garden Plot and have participated in REX exercises.
There’s no denying that the secrecy around civil disturbance programs is pernicious and suggests that there is far more going on than our own government cares to admit. To uncover FEMA’s real intent all we have to do is examine how they behave.
The recent Hurricane Helene disaster and FEMA’s handling of the response across the East Coast echos the agency’s crimes after Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans in 2005. Their emergency “aid” is used as a cloak to hide efforts to actually STOP communities from helping each other and preventing outside civilian funded supplies from reaching affected residents in need.
Desperate residents during Katrina were treated like prisoners rather than citizens, gun confiscation took place in many areas and some people were shot for trying to leave locked down neighborhoods. (As a side note – this is why you should NEVER let anyone confiscate your firearms, especially if those people are sent by the government)
CNN reported in 2008 that FEMA confiscated at least $85 million in donated goods and prevented them from reaching Katrina disaster victims. This included clothing, bedding, food and medical supplies. They stored these materials for years and then GAVE AWAY the supplies long after Katrina was over. FEMA claimed the supplies were “in excess to their needs.” This report and all related articles now seem to be missing from CNN’s archives.
We just witnessed a repeat of this behavior from FEMA and the affiliated agencies within their oversight. We saw local EMS being advised to prevent civilians from helping their communities. Supplies were once agaun being blocked, people with drones were being told not to help find survivors, people with helicopters are were threatened for helping save survivors and little aid reached Helene victims for weeks. Elon Musk’s Starlink was even been prevented from providing satellite internet services to affected regions until the story went national and the Department of Transportation was forced to address the problem.
It’s Katrina all over again, and FEMA always seems to have excuses.
But why? You would think that with an election only weeks away Biden and Harris would be jumping at the chance to look competent and useful. Instead, they did nothing other that offer a $750 relief check to survivors (which might help people survive for a week) and then referred people to federal programs which take many months to benefit from.
I argue that this is all deliberate. FEMA and the federal government at large are still using Operation Garden Plot-like protocols with two goals in mind…
First, they are trying to acclimate the populace to the idea that civilians can’t help themselves and that they should do nothing. They do this by constantly interfering with civilian efforts and disrupting donations. If civilians are working on their own to save US communities from calamity then they might one day realize they don’t need the Federal Government for anything. The establishment NEEDS people to believe that they can’t survive without government aid and protection. Luckily, at least in the aftermath of Helene, it seems that many communities are working on their own to fix the situation.
If civilians start doing things for themselves, the establishment machine becomes obsolete.
Second, I suspect FEMA is testing the waters to see how much they can get away with. Katrina was a clear beta-test for martial law disguised as an emergency response. Katrina was Garden Plot and Rex-84 realized. They want to see what Americans will put up with. Helene is yet another opportunity for these agencies to apply overt control and see if Americans will conform or rebel.
If FEMA is truly sincere in their efforts to help Americans they certainly don’t act like it. The criticism surrounding Helene is ramping up and FEMA’s indignant attitude towards their own failures in unacceptable. They should be punished for failing in their duties. That is assuming they are actually failing.
Maybe they consider the tragedy of government inaction surrounding Helene a success? The underlying point is, when disaster comes your way, it’s not enough to merely count FEMA out as a source of aid. That’s obvious. But you will also have to consider the possibility that the agency will work directly against you and your neighbors should you try to help yourselves.

That women is a 100% USDA Certified idiot. If people thought Joe Bidet was inept with dementia, this woman multiplies that by 50. This is the state/condition of a dying empire when stupid people are “selected” to run a country. And no I don’t expect Donald Trump to win in November.
All the numbers showed prior to the cheating, he was on his way towards a landslide victory but Joe Bidet and the all the nefarious votes proved he received more votes than any US president. Joe Bidet was selected by the Deep State to do their bidding and Kamala Harris has been given the baton to run/ruin the country for another 4 years. “The United States has terminal cancer”.
Expect civil war after the election cause NO one is going to believe this dumbass is capable of running a country. I seriously doubt she’s capable of being hired as an assistant manager at a 7-Eleven.
sadly you are right i heard of vote fliping going on all ready 10/22/24 the ballot box is broken so we will have switch over to another box and use its contence to take our country back and yes it is legal and mandated by our god given constitutoin….
The CONstitutuon is not God given. “Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes.” Last time I checked, “Thou shall not steal” did not contain a provision for taxation not being theft. Oh, and before you go there, spare me the Jesus quote of “render unto Ceasar,” it was a calculated response to men trying to trick him in the moment, nothing more. People who use that to say “Jesus says to pay your taxes,” are is intellectually dishonest (and downright silly) to use Jesus’s instructions to the rich young ruler to sell what he has and follow him to mean, they, and other followers must take a vow of poverty in order to be a true disciple. Truth is, it was a specific response per the situation, as was “render unto Ceasars.”
If these stories of militias fighting FEMA are true, then a hot civil war has already broken out in America Well, we are about to see because from what I’m hearing these militias protecting mountain families might be the catalyst for a civil war that’ll make our last one look LIGHT by comparison! This is why we must come out of ‘her and be separate.’ We must be marked with the Mark of Almighty God so we can be protected in the day of trouble. So therefore, believe in Jesus Christ & His soul-saving Blood, & on Him you can rely!”
“Brethren, as many of you have already heard, the recent hurricanes totally devastated massive areas to the south, but none were harder hit than the Florida & the Carolinas. And add to the devastation there that many of their mountain towns are hard to get to WITH ROADS, but now that those roads have been wiped out without a trace – rescue efforts have turned impossible. American citizens from all over are donating supplies, their time, risking their lives & lending private helicopte
Great point that Fed officials want to squelch any self-reliance. I wasn’t getting why so called rescue agency were blatantly interfering with real help. Makes total sense in terms of them continuing to undermine independence and survivability of regular people.
I think it goes beyond creating dependency. It goes more toward surrender and our resignation that they completely own us, and we have no recourse.
These N.C. disaster victims would be best off relocating from worthless land and uninsured flooded houses, towns with no infrastructure and businesses demolished.. Kids need to be in school and people need to make a living finding work elsewhere. There is no future there. Retirees in Florida will likely relocate to safer areas, some are moving to other states now incl. my area inland away from the Gulf.
With all do respect to you, Laura Ann. “Worthless land!” Ah c’mon! Your words are evidence you are not speaking with facts and have done little research, hold up on giving your advise! You have no idea what would be best for these folks. The planned devastation is all about what’s under their land! These folks have been horribly traumatized! The last place their kids need to be is in an institution that is operated by the very copperheads that bit them.
They should get paid for whoever wants their land since they have to transfer their deed like anyone selling land. Retirees have choices also, and some are tired of hurricanes and storm surges damaging property with occasional hurricanes.
Have a look at this interview with Ron Paul on a recent U.S. Department of Defense directive:

P.S: this episode of the “X Files” series is more relevant than ever today:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJjVS61HNU0
The “X Files” series is more than fiction.
I think more and more that the globalists’ next move will be a massive cyber attack. In any case, a large-scale false flag seems imminent.
…
P.P.S: George H. W. Bush(41st US President) was a former CIA director under Ford Administration (with Dick Cheney as Chief of Staff to President Gerald R. Ford; and Donald Rumsfeld as Secretary of Defense).
I have heard that Trump will win the election but the Democrats won’t allow him to be president. After the election there will be a combination of civil war, economic collapse, cyber attack, martial law and then a redo of the US 2020 election🧐
If Trump wins, wrong wing violence is a sure thing. If Scumala wins, the wrong wing will know they can commit mayhem with complete impunity and no consequences. Regardless of who “wins,” you should expect rampant violence.
A very, very realistic “scenario”. The globalists and the establishment need chaos to keep power and comply people to their NWO or Great Reset. Order out of chaos?! Again and again!
Trump is just a scapegoat, an ally(?!) or a “tool” or…a pretext.
From what I have read the outcome is to make the US look like a banana republic and destroy the US dollar as the World Reserve Currency in order to bring in a gold backed CBDC.
Since we don’t know how bad it will get, people need to buy supplies, esp. canned foods, paper products, and cleaning supplies (check weekly grocery sales, check dollar stores) Shop early, get extra personal supplies, pet food, batteries, etc. Watch kids and pets. Keep cars full of gas. Best not to take road trips and avoid crowds or protests, in other words stay hunkered down and keep informed in your city and surrounding area. Civil unrest could last awhile. Retirees need to run errands early in the day. Best to not go out after dark unless work related.

Revoke it. Problem solved
They’re losing control and they know it which is why things are ramping up more into force the people to do this and that. Everyone should be prepared to fight off the internal treasonous agencies and dissolve the government until a more perfect union can be created. It’s a matter of national security that we shut down this out of control federal government and similarly all state governments infected by the disease of working against the people while pretending otherwise. Lots of cleanup ahead.
I followed what happened in Katrina closely and I even heard that mercenries from Blackwater were there shooting people, it wouldn’t surprise me if that was true….
“The Federal Emergency Management Agency was founded on April 1st, 1979… its stated goal was to centralize all disaster related efforts under a single top-down entity.”
.
So, what is the correct response when it is FEMA itself that IS the disaster? Another FEMA to fix FEMA?
.
How do you fix one failing top-down entity? Make ANOTHER top-down entity and don’t expect them do fix anything either! And another. And another. Keep it going. That will fix the jobless figures, won’t it? Make as many FEMAs as you need.
.
April, 1979 we were ‘blessed’ with FEMA. How, oh how, did we ever survive as a Nation before 1979 without them? How did America free itself from foreign rule… from taming a wide and wild continent… from natural disasters… from battling fierce World Wars… how could we have made it all those years without FEMA to save us? Must have been a damn miracle.
.
“… FEMA was working directly with the Department of Defense on a hypothetical strategy to round up and detain large numbers of civilians considered a ‘threat to national security.’”
.
Ah yes, the real meat on the bones. A front group to obscure the actually intended core group that doesn’t look as fuzzy and warm and motherly. Problem is, when you have so many groups to Keep Us Safe (!) – you have to keep inventing threats and bad guys. Thank God we have Hollywood and Dark State Think Tanks for that.
.
“… they are trying to acclimate the populace to the idea that civilians can’t help themselves…”.
.
To make yourself powerful you need to turn everyone else into being helpless. And since the passing of the Greatest Generation, America has done a fine job of helpless-nessing itself. Make people weak and needy. Save me! Save me! I have an untied shoelace! That could be dangerous! Maybe a weapon of mass destruction even! Ahhhgghh! I think I’m triggering myself! FEMA! Save me!
.
But, many Americans have become very willing participants in our own juvenilization. Stay needy for life and let Mommy-and-Daddy Gov take care of you.
.
And in two weeks… we have a chance to elect (select) an actual needy Mommy figure! The Universe provides…
.
Bring the Joy… Smirking Lady! Save me from becoming a responsible adult who makes good decisions with my life. Maaahh–Meeeee!
In 1961 Harry Truman called the CIA “the American Gestapo” and regretted authorizing its creation. Along with FEMA, that “roll of dishonor” now includes the FBI, NSA, ATF, TSA, DHS, CDC and EPA. All must be abolished. That should be one of Trump’s top priorities.
Do you think there’s anything to the claims of weather manipulation by the government being the cause of Hurricane Helene?
Weather manipulation is a proven agenda, openly admitted to by various governments. That said, I doubt they can create hurricanes. There’s just too many factors to control. They can cause downpours, but they aren’t gods. Cloud seeding might make a hurricane worse than it already is, but good luck proving it.
There is always a dark truth behind an altruistic-sounding name. There are no exceptions to this rule.
Brandon, I was waiting to see a mention of FEMA detainment camps. I can’t prove they are there but I’m quite certain they will be a key element of such a nefarious plan.
During Covid Australia had wellness camps (cough/ cough) concentration camps but there was too many unvaccinated to go there. The Queensland premier even went on breakfast during Covid snd when asked laughed and said that the camps were for the unvaccinated. Tucker Carlson said on a few months ago when I watched him live in Brisbane said that the elite still want to put us in camps and if it’s coming in Australia it will come to the US. At least you in the US were smart enough to keep your guns.
Voluntary responses to hurricanes are always better than government ones. At any rate something needs to change but I wasn’t sure what it could be until recent months. We need to return to self reliance and no be so dependent on government assistance
The story of the $750 payouts seemed to disappear rather quickly,
however i did see a couple references to the small print on the application forms which indicated the money must be paid back on demand or forfeit property. May or may not be just a made up “conspiracy theory.”
“You would think that with an election only weeks away Biden and Harris would be jumping at the chance to look competent and useful.”
You would think so especially with respects to NC & GA which are battleground states. I don’t suspect most other people matter. It is only people on the right in the other 48 that are paying attention to this disaster recovery if I had to guess. If it wasn’t so close to an election I can absolutely see them doing it to demoralize the right. But they need to look competent in both of those two states.
This behavior fits into what dawned on me as a potential threat incoming. I want to be very delicate how I write this. I can see them either on the day of the election or a few days out “removing” the candidate who is NOT Trump. By remove I do NOT mean switching her out. Just use your imagination.
Trump supporters will be framed/blamed for it of course. Imagine this happening a couple of days before the election. The nation would come to a standstill and both sides would get revved up pretty quick. At this point I can some militarized migrants ordered to go into rural areas (Trump areas) to go after soft targets.
The reason given would be is because these Trump supporters wanted the candidate who cared about them “removed.” Martial law is then implemented along with the new EO allowing military to fire on citizens.
You guys can do the math from there. I have NO sources or Intel guiding me. Just a man with clues and an imagination and maybe even some psychic abilities 😉.
Am putting this out so we can anticipate it. If they think we know may they forego the plan….🤷♂️
Just a thought!!
Oh and PS Naomi Wolfe confirmed the new arrivals were indeed exempt from the covid shots. That’s in 2021 mind you when all lefties and their NGO’s thought the jab was the most wonderful development ever hatched. Why did they let them off the hook?
Since nothing is free particularly from the gov’t it is pretty safe to say that repayment of the $750 is a reality.
People can choose to be incredibly resilient I believe that is what is happening where Helene/Milton wreaked havoc. We have groups from Missouri going down to help and I know there are many more. FEMA be damned.
We all do so much better not getting hooked up to gov’t teat. Better to not give them a handle on you.
We really need to get back to gov’t be afraid of the people rather than the people being afraid of gov’t. It has gotten so backwards as evil, money/power brokers have gained control.
