Joe Biden. I love this man. I honor this man. He gave 50 years of political life to us to help make our lives better. I do not understand why certain journalists and tv networks are attacking him.

I live in the beautiful mountains of NC. You may have heard that we had a monster hurricane named Helene hit us 7 weeks ago. 1st photo you may have seen because it went viral (not my photo). 2nd photo I took as we drove by the same houses 3 weeks later. We still don't have drinkable water.
