A beloved father and friend who was working to repair flood damaged infrastructure. A carpenter and his wife, who by all accounts was "hospitality personified.” A doting grandfather. And a man who loved loud, fast cars. Tropical Storm Helene took the lives of 108 NC residents. We remember them all. You can find a full list of those NC lost to Helene one year ago here: https://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2025/09/26/108-nc-lives-lost-tropical-storm-helene-anniversary-names/86345094007/

An ICE fascist shot an American citizen 7 times, then arrested her, then filed a false police report that he was ambushed by 10 cars all while taunting her to “Do something, b*tch”—AND ITS ALL ON CAMERA.
