Ivanka Trump Flies Starlink Terminals to Hurricane Victims After Slow Biden Assistance
Ivanka Trump Flies Starlink Terminals to Hurricane Victims After Slow Biden Assistance

The Biden-Harris administration has become synonymous with missed opportunities and half-baked responses, and Hurricane Helene is just the latest example. From inflation to a chaotic border, their track record is riddled with failures.

But when it comes to disaster relief, the administration’s response—or lack thereof—feels especially egregious. As the people of the southeastern United States face catastrophic damage from Hurricane Helene, the Biden administration has dropped the ball, offering too little, too late.

Residents in the hardest-hit areas, many of whom have lost their homes, are waiting for real help. Instead of addressing the urgent needs of those who have lost everything, the administration is delivering hollow gestures and red tape. Take the $750 aid offer that was widely criticized as a token sum that barely scratches the surface of the overwhelming devastation.

In the face of such widespread loss, this administration has shown itself to be woefully unprepared to tackle the aftermath of this disaster. Where’s the leadership? Where’s the plan? Apparently, somewhere between a photo-op and an empty promise.

From Daily Wire:
Ivanka Trump and the Love and Light Foundation delivered Starlink terminals to flood-ravaged areas of North Carolina after southeastern states were devastated by Hurricane Helene.

Ivanka Trump and Musk Step Up

In stark contrast to the fumbling Biden administration, Ivanka Trump and the Love and Light Foundation have stepped up in a big way. While the federal government dithers, real help is arriving thanks to private citizens. On Wednesday, Ivanka Trump and her team delivered hundreds of Starlink terminals to flood-ravaged areas of North Carolina, helping residents who have been cut off from communication.

These terminals provide high-speed satellite internet, courtesy of SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk. When millions are left without power, internet, and cell service, the importance of staying connected cannot be overstated.

The United Cajun Navy, a grassroots disaster response organization, shared the news on social media with excitement. “YUGE shout out to @IvankaTrump and the Love and Light Foundation for flying in 300 STARLINK units for the #Helene victims,” the post read.

At a time when people are desperate for relief, Ivanka Trump is stepping in where the Biden administration has failed. And let’s be honest—getting things done has always been the Trump way.

Real Solutions, Real Help

While FEMA struggles to manage logistics, SpaceX and Ivanka Trump have already delivered 300 Starlink units to North Carolina and are offering free internet service for 30 days in affected areas. This isn’t just about posting numbers on a spreadsheet; it’s about real, tangible solutions for people in need.

As Elon Musk noted on social media, “Starlink terminals will now work automatically without need for payment in the areas affected by Hurricane Helene.” This is precisely the kind of quick, efficient action people expect during a crisis—something the Biden administration clearly doesn’t understand.

And it didn’t stop there. Former President Donald Trump himself got involved, talking to Musk directly to ensure more terminals were sent to the hardest-hit areas in North Carolina. Musk responded quickly, sending more units within hours of Trump’s request.

The difference between the proactive efforts of the Trump family and Musk versus the sluggish bureaucracy of the Biden administration couldn’t be more stark. FEMA may claim they had “planned” for Starlink deliveries, but let’s face it, without the direct involvement of Ivanka and Musk, would anything have happened?

Leadership in Action

It’s moments like these that highlight what real leadership looks like. Ivanka Trump’s swift action and Elon Musk’s technological muscle have provided essential services to devastated areas in days—something the Biden-Harris administration has yet to achieve.

People need more than platitudes and paltry sums of cash when their lives are upended by natural disasters. They need decisive action, and that’s exactly what they’re getting from the Trumps and Musk.

The Biden administration’s claim that they had plans in place rings hollow when compared to the immediate action taken by Ivanka and her team. While Washington fumbles around with paperwork, the Trump team is getting results on the ground. Ivanka and Musk aren’t waiting for bureaucratic red tape to be cut; they’re delivering help now.

Trump’s Real Legacy

This isn’t just about one storm or one response. It’s about the kind of leadership America needs. The Biden-Harris administration has been a constant source of disappointment for Americans, from failing to manage crises at home to prioritizing foreign interests over American citizens.

In contrast, Donald Trump and his family are proving, once again, that they understand what it means to serve the American people.

As Elon Musk noted, “Earlier today, @realDonaldTrump alerted me to additional people who need Starlink Internet in North Carolina. We are sending them terminals right away.”

This is how real solutions get made—through action, not empty words. And as millions across the Southeast struggle to recover from Hurricane Helene, it’s clear who’s actually showing up to help.

Conclusion: Who’s Really Got Your Back?

At the end of the day, Americans need to ask themselves: Who’s really got your back? The Biden-Harris administration, with their delayed responses and inadequate relief? Or the Trumps, who are stepping up with real solutions when it matters most?

While Biden and Harris continue to fail in their duties, Ivanka Trump and Elon Musk are demonstrating that true leadership comes from action, not from hollow promises. And that’s something America sorely needs right now.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Biden-Harris administration has been criticized for offering minimal aid to those devastated by Hurricane Helene.
  • Ivanka Trump and the Love and Light Foundation delivered 300 Starlink units to provide satellite internet to affected areas.
  • Elon Musk, in coordination with former President Trump, ensured quick deployment of more Starlink units.
