The death toll from a storm in the southeastern U.S. has risen to 118, with hundreds still missing. President Biden will visit North Carolina to oversee rescue efforts and refuted claims from Donald Trump that the federal response has been slow. Biden called Trump’s statements lies and emphasized the role of climate change in intensifying hurricanes. Emergency workers continue to search for the missing, restore services, and provide aid. The death toll is expected to rise, with many still unaccounted for due to the storm’s devastation.
