JUST IN: Shocking Ring Video Shows Helene Victim Being Denied Disaster Aid Over Trump Sign
Doorbell camera footage released over the internet on Tuesday captured an infuriating moment when a liberal North Carolina resident providing donations to hurricane victims reprimanded a family for having the audacity to place a Trump sign in her yard and threatened to withhold future aid.
The Ring doorbell camera shows an elderly woman walking up to the front porch of a home in North Carolina where she was greeted by the homeowner. The End Wokeness account on X, which obtained the footage, drew viewers to negative remarks made by the woman shortly after she delivered a children’s mattress to the resident.

“This is the last of ’em,” the volunteer explains in the video. When the homeowner asks if they’ll be receiving more help, the volunteer replies, “I’m really conflicted — I have a lot more stuff to give, but I am not a fan of Donald Trump, so these signs are a problem for me.” She pointed at a red and blue Trump yard sign before walking off, leaving the resident standing nonplussed at the doorstep.

A timestamp accompanying the video appears to indicate it was recorded on Tuesday, evidencing that relief work is still in progress across parts of the Tar Heel state since being hit by Hurricane Helene in late September. Much of the effort was undertaken by FEMA but spiraled out of control amid speculation that the federal relief agency was withholding aid to Trump supporters, a claim furthered by then-candidate Donald Trump. Mainstream media outlets declared the accusation a “lie” and “baseless,” but shortly after the election the Biden-Harris administration was forced to fire a FEMA worker who admitted to directing her employees to skip over houses that had pro-Trump yard signs.
Other North Carolina survivors have detailed how FEMA hasn’t lived up to President Joe Biden’s promise of a maximum of $750 in relief payments. Other viral videos have shown military choppers causing mayhem over staging grounds where supplies were stored. The Blaze’s Glenn Beck has reported speaking with personnel on the ground who appear more interested in intercepting amateur helicopter pilots conducting rescue missions than rushing to save residents stranded in washed-away mountain towns. The video from Tuesday is another sign that the politicization of Helene has not abated with the election.
President Trump has promised to provide wholesale relief to North Carolina residents who, despite interruptions to the election, delivered the Republican his biggest win of the past three elections. “We’re going to continue to be with you,” he said during a visit to a disaster site in late October. “You’ve gotta get a better crew in to do a better job than has been done by the White House. Many Americans in this region have felt abandoned and helpless and left behind by their government, and yet in North Carolina’s hour of desperation, the American people answered the call.”
