14. Ground zero of Helena

Middle NC Chapel Hill Durham, got hit hard last week. Very little converge. And seeing this tonight is just sickening. New York New Jersey last night, and the New Mexico the day afterTexas. Little coverage.
Fires out west and all we see is Trump, his thugs ISIS gangs, a useless Congress on their knees in the Capital Well after robing us all with the BBB, for the rich, PRAYING.
And. Burning tons of food, those poor refugees could get it, maybe without maggots in it.
And according to GQP they pray all the time, and keep getting more and more. What Loving God would allow this if prayers worked?
I did not mean to insult those here that still have faith in prayer, I have lost any hope and I am just sick of the evil that is flooding our whole damn country from a regime claiming to be God’s chosen.
Did the Tornado victims this spring in Red Haven USA get any help? Noem and Miller should be in hell right now. If prayers worked.
