There is no evidence for this claim and it was originally posted by a satirical website.

Fact Check:

Hurricane Helene displaced many citizens in western North Carolina due to its widespread damage, according to AP News. The state’s election board approved a resolution that would allow voters in 13 counties that were significantly impacted to have more ways to obtain and deliver absentee ballots, NBC News reported.

A post claims Kid Rock brought a significant amount of supplies to North Carolina to aid with hurricane recovery. The post shared the claim in text. (RELATED: Matt Gaetz Post About FEMA Funding Is From Hurricane Ian, Not Hurricane Helene)

ā€œKid Rock heads to North Carolina with Millions in supplies - Taylor Swift Nowhere to be Found,ā€ the post reads.

This post is inaccurate, however. There are no credible news reports to corroborate the claim.

The claim was originally posted by a satirical account. The account’s bio reads, ā€œA subsidiary of the America’s Last Line of Defense network of trollery. Nothing on this page is real.ā€ It was also posted in the form of an article by Dunning-Kruger-Times.com, a subsidiary of the same ā€œAmerica’s Last Line of Defenseā€ network. Similarly, the site’s about us page indicates that the website is satirical.
