Praying strength and comfort for all who loss loved ones and for the whole city that God help them all in Jesus Mighty Name 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Call Trump Trumpsters and KKK followers
Ya need to stop with these bible quotes and Hope's and prayers cause only money and resources are gonna help these people.
Remember how trump dealt with these disasters?
1. Blame disaster on all local officials who didn't support him in last election.
2. Suggest or imply he would be donating his own money…but it would never show up.
3. Claim climate change is Chinese hoax.
4. Release government aid only after local officials grovel.
Why worry Moscow Mitch and Dimwit Don the Con will come to the rescue. MAGA!
Where Mitch? Anyone heard from him? Stop voting republican Kentucky, I'm disgusted.
Amos 3:6 When disaster comes to a city is it not The Lord who has brought it.
Gen The Lord said" For the sake of 20 I will not destroy it." Kentucky should have treated Blacks better
Brace yourselves, natural disasters are only going to increase. So sorry for everyone suffering 🙁 Bless you all
Live in a flood zone
Expect floods
We are not all gun toting trump lovers here. This flood did not pick and choose who to take based on political affiliation, education level, financial status or anything like that. It came out of no where no matter how prepared you are. The news shows all these people walking around with no teeth, living in a run down shack. We are not all like that. Some of us have an education, with a good job not in the coal industry and we were not spared from the flooding. You will never see the normal ones though. He media only shows you the image that will go along with the stigma KY has and it’s a shame. I am a dem, but I am so hurt by some of the comments I have read here. I live here because this is my home, this is where my family is. All of us don’t dream of a life full of lights and city life. We like it here. We like the people and the culture here. Just because I choose to live here doesn’t make me less of a person. This is what we fight for, everyone to be equal and accepted. So If that’s what we truly want, why the comments about us getting what we deserve? I believe in the right to choose and all of the things. We are not ALL republicans. Bring a democrat did not save me from losing almost everything. Thankfully, my family is alive and safe. Thanks for your concern.
🙁
Praying for our Lord to protect, provide, and guide these people of Kentucky. May they overcome and rise again stronger than ever. They are not alone. Thank the Lord. In Jesus name. Amen.
Any strippers lose there trailer and need a place to stay? Must have all your teeth and not be pregnant.
No kids, no pets, no cigarettes…. no zombiejesusfreaks need reply.
Prayrrs people and snimals
Please helpall these business and families
Looks like they White Privilege ran out.
Where is God when you need him?
Truly tragic, I'm in North Carolina and have experienced flooding from over 15 direct hurricanes in 40 years, it destroys everything and rips your life away and rebuilding takes years each time. I visited Ashland Kentucky a few years ago and fell in love, this used to be small town life now it takes 45 minutes to commute 6.5 miles and desperately want to finish life in the Appalachian mountains, hopefully I can volunteer with clean up efforts in exchange for a job since all I know is carpentry,flooring,gutters and window replacement and glazing if anyone reads this and knows how I could relocate to Kentucky and help just leave a comment. It would be an honor to help people whom have lost family friends and all belongings
Why pelosi is not here?
Rebuild? For what? Soon another disaster will destroy everything again. This is caused by climate change. GOP is the biggest denier of Climate Change. Keep voting for them and you all will receive the Mother Nature Rage.
Natural disaster caused by americans!
;*(
I want to feel bad for them, but they just keep rebuilding in the same place while expecting a different outcome. That's crazy, and unfair to taxpayers.
I hope folks at Kentucky start to take Climate Change more seriously and not a hoax like the many who keep voting for Mitch McConnell.
GUN NUTS WANTED —- To drive out climate change.
McTurtle: Don’t look for me under water
Sorry. For all you climate change deniers out there, all we have left in stock are inflatable Hunter Biden laptop floaties. Are you interested in any of those? $45 each.
I don't like McConnell and what he is doing. I've been watching the opiod epidemic and the joblessness in Kentucky. Yet, the time I spent there in my youth, the beauty, the people, salt of the earth, has stayed with me and my heart goes out to them, as my prayers do also. I hope and pray that out of this devastating flood, just as in the case of Noah, that lives will be changed for the better. That hope will be renewed. That jobs and industrys will return and that Mitch will either be replaced or realize that one Nation, not divided by red, blue, so called right (NOT), and playing politics, has real consequences. He may be so divorced from reality of the wonderful people of Kentucky at this point and thinks that he can continue to pay them off for votes, that he's beyond redemption. But I believe with all my heart that the kind of people I met there and got to know will rise above, take a stand, listen to that still small voice and make Kentucky the beautiful and amazing place for every kind of person, be they rich or living up the hollar, that I remember. May God be with you, comfort you, strenghten you and stay close to you, as you recover from the flood. God bless.
QOBILTU.ALHAMDULILLAHIROBBIL ALAMIIN,ALLAHUMMA AMIIN.☆☆☆☆☆.@$#.
This is what is Americans are made of.
I feel for the victims who lost everything. I couldn’t imagine what it’s like and wouldn’t want to. May God strengthen the families who lost loved ones and bless them to either recover or move away. Everyone read Matthew chapter 24.
People will think I'm crazy
But praise God for his judgement 🙏
What can bottles of water do FOR THESE people. Karma is real they used to HANG Blacks THERE.
Where is McConnell in all this???
MOVE OUT OF THIS EVIL PLACE FOR GOOD. DONT BE STUPID DONT REBUILD THIS DAMNED PLACE
Repent Matthew chapter 24 Bible prophecies fulfilling repent vain is the help of man repent
