The former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and current Secretary of Transportation for the United States, Pete Buttigieg, said this week that there would be brief flight limits “near or around rescue activities for Hurricane Helene.”

Buttigieg said, “Our goal is to ensure that money doesn’t get in the way of getting people the help they need and deserve very quickly.”

“This is biblically terrible destruction. The things we see out there are very end times.”

He went on, “There are also safety problems that come up. For instance, brief flying limits to make sure the airspace is ok for any flights or drone activity that might help first responders do their jobs.”

The Transportation Department put up a video of Buttigieg’s speech and added, “Drone pilots: Do not fly your drone near or around Hurricane Helene aid and recovery operations. Interfering with emergency response services has an effect on search and rescue activities on the ground.”

Blaze News earlier reported that Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told the press on Wednesday that the federal government does not have enough money to fully respond to these kinds of tragedies.

“With the money we have, we’re taking care of our current needs. We think that another storm will hit. We don’t have the money,” Mayorkas said.

America First Legal said that the Federal Emergency Management Agency under the Biden-Harris administration wasted a lot of money on illegal immigration.

AFL said, “The Biden-Harris FEMA spent over $1 BILLION on funding illegal foreigners.”

Many people have been angry and frustrated with the federal government’s reaction to Hurricane Helene’s damage in places where Americans live.

GA Gov. Brian Kemp (R) slammed the government for not doing enough to help Americans, especially those who live in rural areas.

Kemp told WRDW, “There were only 11 counties in the first emergency orders. And I was one of those angry people because there was so much damage in up to 90 counties.”

“We called the White House. We told the president’s chief of staff and the head of FEMA, ‘Look, you’re giving the message that you’re not paying attention to some of these rural towns,’” he said.
