State Sen. Kevin Corbin calls out “conspiracy theory junk” about unburied bodies and FEMA stealing money.

A Republican senator in the North Carolina legislature has issued a public plea for people to stop spreading conspiracy theories about the disaster recovery efforts in areas ravaged by flooding from Hurricane Helene.

In a Thursday afternoon Facebook post, state Sen. Kevin Corbin, who represents the state’s westernmost area, asked his followers for a favor: “Will you all help STOP this conspiracy theory junk that is floating all over Facebook and the internet about the floods in WNC.”

    I love that Seth Meyers almost always includes ‘tears streaming down his face’ when doing a fake Trump speech. Because he says it all the fucking time. People just cry around him constantly apparently.

      Maybe people actually are constantly crying around him?? …Maybe their eyes can’t help but water up because of his reportedly horrible body odor.

        I look forward to it every time he impersonates Trump or Giuliani. They both crack me up whenever he does them.

          Yes! Also I look forward to when he stops impersonating them because they’ve faded into irrelevance ♥️
