My people just informed me that this is one of the worst storms to hit the East Coast in many years.

Also, looking like a direct hit on North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.

Please be prepared, be careful and be SAFE!

Pat Robertson Casts ‘Shield Of Protection’ Ahead Of Hurricane Florence

Televangelist sends out an anti-storm incantation via the Christian Broadcasting Network.


“In the name of Jesus, you Hurricane Florence,

we speak to you in the name of Jesus, and

we command the storm to cease its forward motion and go harmlessly into the Atlantic.

Go up north away from land and veer off in the name of Jesus.

We declare in the name of the lord that you shall go no farther,

you shall do no damage in this area.”


He also declared a “shield of protection” over the Virginia area in which he was speaking and around “innocent people” in the storm’s path.

“In Jesus’ holy name, be out to sea!” he called out.

He warned followers that they must have no doubts in their faith for the ritual to work but added that

the “shield” has worked against previous hurricanes.

“It’s almost hilarious to see them try,” he said.

“They try to get in and they can’t, and then they go north and they turn around, try to come back in. They can’t do it.”

In eastern North Carolina, home to the States industrial farm industry, Florence will more than likely kill livestock and release feces and urine from holding ponds due to a mind-blowing potential of 2-4 feet of rainfall from the stalled wind storm.

NPR reports (https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/09/11/646790793/hog-farmers-scramble-to-drain-waste-pools-ahead-of-hurricane-florence), in a correction to their 9-11-18 story, that

farmers that plan to empty the holding ponds in anticipation of heavy rains by increasing the spraying of waste on fields,

will not be allowed to spray the waste after all.

“A previous Web version of this story said that a state of emergency in North Carolina allows farmers to spray more manure on more fields.

This is not the case.

The state of emergency does temporarily remove restrictions on the size and weight of trucks carrying livestock, poultry or animal feed”.

Wage Theft Rampant in Aftermath of Hurricane Harvey

They worked 10- and 12-hour shifts in stifling summer heat, tearing down mold-infested walls, discarding storm debris and moving rotting furniture out of the four-story building.

But when payday came a few weeks later, several workers found their paychecks were short. Others had no checks at all.

More than a dozen workers eventually complained they had not received payment for their work,

while the construction companies in charge of the project blamed one another for the lack of payments.

Nearly a year later, many of those workers say they still have not been paid.

Experts have known (https://poseidon01.ssrn.com/delivery.php?ID=0431051271210261260890650070950911 21009036000082061091106020014025111000023082067011 12005810012204202405311306811400507311007302009003 40370341020691231010900710861160580020860721181100 89117087095008086007087000112127096024105025124098 104092113097006091&EXT=pdf) since at least Hurricane Katrina in 2005 that wage theft – as these unpaid wages are often known – increases dramatically after natural disasters.

Employers looking to profit off rebuilding take on transient and vulnerable workers they can easily exploit.
And yet, Texas officials were unprepared.

Lisa Givens, spokeswoman for the Texas Workforce Commission, defended the state’s work, saying the agency saw no spike in claims for unpaid wages after the hurricane. :lol

“We’re tasked with performing this function, :lol

and we use the resources that are available to us :lol

to the best of our ability,” :lol

she said.

“We continue to improve on the use of those resources to make the process more efficient.” :lol

The state made no significant outreach to low-wage workers in high-risk industries such as construction

– a basic strategy experts say discourages wage theft.

Reveal and The News documented 19 cases of workers whose wages were not paid.

The amounts ranged from just over $500 to more than $4,000.

Trump administration diverted nearly $10 million from FEMA to ICE detention program, according to DHS document

The reallocation of public money is documented in a "Transfer and Reprogramming" notification prepared this fiscal year by the Department of Homeland Security, the parent department of ICE, as the agency is known.

It was made public by Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon in an appearance Tuesday on "The Rachel Maddow Show," as Hurricane Florence barreled toward the Carolinas.

Merkley's office provided the 39-page budget document independently to The Washington Post.

It shows that DHS requested that about

$9.8 million going toward FEMA efforts such as "Preparedness and Protection" and "Response and Recovery"

be funneled instead into ICE coffers,

specifically underwriting "Detention Beds" and the agency's "Transportation and Removal Program."

The U.S. Secret Service was also a beneficiary of the reallocation.

Potential insurance bill from Hurricane Florence could take toll on wallets far from N.C. coast

Insurance companies retreated from some communities amid stronger storms, leaving a “last-resort” plan

“I hate to say it, but all of us who want to live on the coast, we are living on borrowed time,”

said David Redwine (https://coastalinsurance.net/company-directory), a vice president of Coastal Insurance in Shallotte, North Carolina, and a former state representative.

“We’ve been lucky, but will we be lucky in the future? There’s no guarantee of that.”

Harvey’s insured losses were more than five times more than what North Carolina’s coastal plan is currently financially prepared to handle.

So if a storm with comparable consequences struck North Carolina,

tens of billions of dollars in costs could be spread among every insurance customer in the state for years.

North Carolina is a prime example of how states are pushing aside the difficult task of dealing with climate change by subsidizing insurance and

blunting free-market signals that might discourage building new properties along the coast’s most vulnerable areas.

“People who live on the coasts oftentimes believe they should not be subjected to premiums that fully reflect their risk,”

said Robert Hartwig (https://www.iii.org/about-us/the-team/dr-robert-p-hartwig-cpcu), former president of the Insurance Information Institute, an industry association.

“They believe they should be entitled to some form of subsidy.” SOCIALISM for rich people! :lol
