Sure, but it's getting very much exaggerated and politicized. I've seen people only two steps away from saying stuff like, "Biden personally showed up, pissed in my relief Cheerios and shit in my Starlink Dishy."

To me it seems like an extension of the same behavior.

They forced the husband to be rescued via rope line across a flooding river. Endangered him and the crew that had to hike in and do the rope rescue. Helicopter could have just picked up the guy and had him with his wife in 5 minutes. Then a few days later they asked the helicopter guy to come back and do rescues. Of course now it was “authorized”. It is the mentality of those with “authority”. He was not “approved” to to do the rescue. He did not break any law, there were no temporary flight restrictions. He did not create a hazard. He had permission of the guy to come back and land there to pick him up. He just did something that was not under the control of the “authorities”. They know better of course. They threatened him with arrest. So, I find it super easy to believe that the “authorities” would impound a truck of anything heading into the area they claim to be controlling and managing.

Just sayin’ I think it is nice that Elon is out handing out free terminals. Just like that private helicopter pilot that rescued the woman but was prohibited from making the return flight to get her husband, the government is full of people that do not like mavricks. Elon showing up with terminals and having local emergency people blocking them or taking them for their own use is not beyond the pale. Or are you really convinced the FEMA is a paragon of efficiency?
