In the wake of Hurricane Helene, President Biden has ordered the deployment of 1,000 active-duty troops to North Carolina and surrounding areas to aid in recovery efforts. Amid rising death tolls, which have surpassed 200, Biden and Vice President Harris surveyed the extensive damage in the Carolinas and Georgia, pledging federal support to impacted communities. The president emphasized the commitment of federal resources while responding to criticisms from former President Trump regarding the federal response. Biden's visits included aerial tours and briefings with state officials, where he reiterated that 'the nation has your back' and promised assistance 'until the job is done.' Despite facing political challenges and public scrutiny, Biden focused on the devastation caused by the storm and the ongoing recovery efforts.
