I can't believe they got hit again. Our complaints seem so small now….prayers
STATEHOOD FOR PR!!!!
SHAME ON MUSK AND BEZOS FOR NOT LIFTING A DAMN FINGER!!!
I love how you end the segment with a man standing next to a shopping cart that's blown over… TRAGIC IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT according to these IDIOTS…
We don't need your prayers we need canned food, rice and water. Then we need tarps fuel, gasoline and propane. And we need it now… not weeks or months from now… but now. This is just as bad as when cyclone Maria hit. There are plenty of food trucks that survived but most of us are living from dollar to dollar we need money to buy the fuel and the food to feed the people. Hopefully this time you won't send down big boxes half empty filled with potato chips and cookies we need real food…
Hopefully global warming swallows up this US Territory real soon ..So tired of throwing money at a problem that can't be fixed.

Ludzie waszej wiary spadają z całej ziemi se na wygrzewke szedno
Let them become independent and on their own like Dominican republic and Haiti.
Return Puerto Rico to Spanish and get done with it.
Why are all of these people overweight?
My heart is with those beautiful little islands, and the people who live there. I am so sorry this has happened again.💔💔💔😢😢😢😢😢💐💐💐💋🇺🇸
God Bless everyone ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
So sad but we are living in the E N D times, the 7year Tribulation with the world leader (Antichrist) is right around the corner, that's GOD'S judgement upon all unbelievers! But there is hope – get saved and be rapture ready: accept JESUS CHRIST as your Lord and Savior today!!!
Please study biblical end times prophecy; listen to Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology.

Their corrupt government takes whatever money is sent there so nothing gets done for the people.
Luma needs to be taken out period, and I don’t think they spent that much money in supposedly fixing the light years before, the government is stealing the money, that’s why Puerto Rico looks like 💩 and now is going to look even worst ☹️
The moment the island is “rebuilt “ will be once the Government, the big buck investors , crypto nerds , etc. Finish removing native Puerto Ricans out of their island . Then it will become what Hawaii is today
You have confidence in Luma? You’re a walking joke señor secretario
Luma is there for the camaras the island been struggling with the electricity more with Luma the problems was not so consecutive until they took over and they have raise the price 7 times when the people still getting pay the minimal pay $7.00 an hr LUMA is a garbage company
I find it amazing how an Island of Patriots who have fought in every American War and American Citizens since 1917 are still referred to as Puerto Ricans and not Americans. The US Governments treats the American Citizens of all the US Colonial Territories as 2nd. Class Citizens! It's time for the United States to change the status of Puerto Rico and address the status of the other Territories. They can start by exempting Puerto Rico from the unjust Jones Act.
Climate change will sink that island eventually. Why stay? Too bad if u do

Este secretario necesita ser más! como puede ser que la luz y agua todavía se va por eso mismo me fui de pr porque los politicians no sabe manejar dinero
Storm Chasers Answer Please !
Hurricanes – – Storm Surge , Flooding , Rain . I got that . With wind speeds are in tornado territory ,
Extreme roof damage = Tornado , Yes . Hurricane , No . At the same wind speeds .
In Isabela our fourth day without power and water 😩 the amount of frustration I feel.
They are going to have to put in a strict building code for all new homes, no more shacks allowed. Move people to the mainland wherever possible so there are not so many people there. No more building in flood areas, if water comes though once it will come again. Unemployment is basically 0%, there are lots of jobs on the mainland, I hope everyone makes good decisions.
The electric service in Puerto Rico is poor, because half of the Puerto Ricans there live in poverty. If Puerto Rico were not a United States (US) colony, she would have a first rate electrical system. The US militarily invaded Puerto Rico in 1898 to make her a US colony. In 1945, the US refused to comply with the United Nations’ (UN) Charter that prohibits colonialism for being a crime against humanity. Moreover, the US has ignored 41 UN resolutions asking her to immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. The US has never defended democracy. She has only used that word to defend only the interests of her 1% of citizens. That has meant 124 years of US colonialism for Puerto Ricans! If the relationship between the US and Puerto is so good for Puerto Ricans, why do two thirds of us live away from our national territory? Why must Puerto Ricans abandon Puerto Rico to supposedly “enjoy all of the benefits” of having US citizenship? Could it be that it was designed that way to get Puerto Ricans out of Puerto Rico? Why should Puerto Ricans be the only ones in the world without our own citizenship? The 9 million Boricuas worldwide must wake up and organize ourselves to engage in permanent resistance to force the US to comply with international law. Puerto Ricans need not be poor in Puerto Rico.
Ridiculous LUMA need to be removed.
🙏
Damn🙏🏾🙏🏾, we in the vi know how it feels. Y'all will bounce back stronger for sure 💪🏾
We can get over anything, except for our bunch of 💩 of politicians. US politicians are part of this, they keep putting US citizens tax players money in their hands, without any supervision, I don't doubt that your senators and congressmen are part of this scam.
Prayers for PR 🇵🇷🙏🏽
They need to put mountains solar
Correcti I n Cat 5
Only 2 percent of the allocated money for the restructuring of the electrical grid has been spent, thanks to the "junta" imposed on Puerto Rico.
