Did US Marines really shoot and kill FEMA and FBI agents in North Carolina?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!
Claim : US Marines shot FEMA + FBI agents in North Carolina!
Real Raw News is claiming (archive | archive | archive) that US Marines have shot and killed FEMA + FBI agents in North Carolina:
Full story shortly. White Hats and Red Hats have temporarily joined forces to fight FEMA/FBI agents in Chimney Rock, NC.
We have spoken to a Marine sniper who reportedly now has 5 confirmed FEMA kills in North Carolina. He has told us “it’s the fight of our lives”
White Hats/Red Hats late last night engaged FEMA personel at the Greenville, SC, airport, where they saw FEMA escorting blindfolded children onto a twin turboprop plane. More soon.
These claims are also based on its article (archive) which claimed that US Marines and Special Forces ambushed and killed FEMA and FBI agents in Ashville and Chimney Rock in North Carolina!
As usual, the article is (intentionally?) rambling and confusing, so here is an excerpt. Please feel free to skip to the next section for the facts!

Truth : US Marines did not shoot FEMA + FBI agents in North Carolina!
The truth is – this is just another fake story created by Real Raw News, and here are the reasons why…
US Marines did not shoot FEMA and FBI agents
This may seem silly, but let me just point out that US Marines did not shoot and kill FEMA or FBI agents.
If that actually happened, such a shocking event would have been reported widely all over the world. It would also have sparked great outrage on social media, and a military response.
Yet, there is not a single report by any reputable media outlet, never mind wall-to-wall coverage. No surge of troops into North Carolina to quell the violence. Not even outrage on social media. That’s because it was all made up!
That said – it is possible that some people may actually believe that FEMA is trying to take over their property, and such fake news may result in violence against FEMA agents trying to help people.
US military cannot deploy within the US
It is really silly for anyone to claim that US Marines and/or Special Forces were sent to shoot at agents from another government agency.
The Posse Comitatus Act prevents federal military personnel from being deployed within the United States, except when expressly authorised by the Constitution, or an Act of Congress.
Generally, only the President of the United States can order the deployment of US federal military personnel and federalised National Guard troops within the United States using the Insurrection Act of 1807.
If a rogue Marine unit is indeed shooting and killing FEMA and/or FBI agents, then President Joe Biden might order US military units in North Carolina to take them out. But US military leaders by themselves cannot order such a deployment.

President Biden deployed troops to assist FEMA
The truth is – President Joe Biden deployed US military personnel to help with the response and recovery efforts in areas hit by Hurricane Helene.
Today, the President is announcing he has directed the Department of Defense to deploy up to 1,000 active-duty soldiers to support response efforts. These soldiers are part of an Infantry Battalion Task Force, based out of Fort Liberty, North Carolina, which includes a Forward Support Company with the necessary support structure (fuel, water, mechanics, etc.) to conduct operations.
