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.”
So does that mean it’s finally the time to talk about gun control? What about the failed violent insurrection at the Capitol?
Is it at least the right time to point out that Republicans want to dismantle the weather monitoring system?
