Republicans and Democrats are one in the same.

This country is doomed.

The OP thinks he’s so clever but all the dumb motherfucker does is add to the problem.

Why don’t the useless mods on USMB ever move his shitty satire to the ‘Political Satire’ sub-forum?

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine says air in East Palestine is safe following train derailment; people in area advised to drink bottled water

The briefing came nearly a week after an evacuation order was lifted and residents within a mile of the crash were permitted to return to their homes.

"Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and state officials provided an update on the East Palestine train derailment at a press conference on Tuesday. The briefing came nearly a week after an evacuation order was lifted and residents within a mile of the crash were permitted to return to their homes. Residents remain concerned about safety and odors from potentially toxic chemicals like vinyl chloride remain in the air, but Ohio Department of Health Director Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff says air quality levels remain normal. Due to risk of explosion, the Norfolk Southern Railway conducted a "controlled release" of vinyl chloride from five derailed cars, something DeWine ordered after saying it was the least of "two bad options." In all, the National Transportation Safety Board confirms 10 wrecked cars contained hazardous materials, but DeWine says the train was not designated as having "high-hazardous material," and therefore the railroad was not required to notify Ohio officials of the exact contents on board.


While authorities say the risk to public drinking water remains very low, Vanderhoff did suggest those in East Palestine and along the east part of the Ohio River drink bottled water in the short term. DeWine concurred, but did say he would feel comfortable going back home if he lived in East Palestine. Multiple lawsuits have already been filed against Norfolk Southern seeking monetary damages and medical testing. "Norfolk Southern is responsible for this problem," DeWine declared, also threatening potential legal action from Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost. "The impact on this community is huge."


What the hell is this DeWine guy talking about? This is what happens when you let Democrats control your state, you get this kind of incompetence. The drinking water is safe? Really? Why don't you drink some of it then Mr. Governor? And to say he ordered the control burning of dangerous toxic chemicals into our environment because it was Norfolk Southern's decision? Are you kidding? Why are you throwing this company under the bus when we all know it was that fag Transportation Secretary and Biden who sabotaged the train in the first place.

They are the ones who told you to do this, not Norfolk Southern. And now you are blaming the rail company for this and demanding they be held accountable? Even threatening them with legal action? Why are you not demanding Biden and that fag be thrown in prison for the attempted murder of well over one hundred thousand white Christians? Biden and the Dems have essentially declared war on Christianity with this attack. Why is he covering for the Biden admin?

Interstate railroads are federally managed, so yes, Joe Biden is at fault for this.

Did you feel the same way about the Flint water crisis? That lead poisoning will have lasting negative effects on the people there for years to come.....but don't recall much conservative outrage about it....


"A number of Republican operatives and allies Friday lamented that the GOP has largely been ignoring the water crisis in Flint and warned that it sends a terrible message to the nation. “This is an amoral display of political apathy by Republican leaders. Their failure to run to the crisis, roll up their sleeves and pitch in tells the world that we are still the same old Republicans who only care about those who would vote for or contribute to them”

Faint GOP interest in Flint’s pain is a mistake, party members say

Michigan National Guard members help to distribute water to a line of residents in their cars in Flint, Michigan January 21, 2016. “This is an amoral display of political apathy by Republican leaders. Castellanos said he agreed with an op-ed in the New York Times Thursday written by former...

Wonder why that was different from this? Especially when you consider, people actually died from it.....but I am glad republicans are onboard with stronger regulations and environmental protections now...

That city ran itself into the ground and the politicians were and are as corrupt as you can get. The Village.

The Biden Administration want's nothing to do with this because they are responsible.

The RWU argues that antiquated regulation and corporate malpractice led to the potentially generationally damaging incident, a primary culprit being Precision Scheduled Railroading, or PSR. The practice, dubbed by some workers as “positive shareholder reaction,” manages freight movement by the individual car level, as opposed to the whole train—ensuring train cars are constantly on the move. In practice, this has cut jobs, consolidated dispatch centers, and made trains less safe, as fewer workers have less time to conduct checks on more train cars.
Based on its analysis, the RWU says “the immediate cause of the wreck appears to have been a nineteenth-century style mechanical failure of the axle on one of the cars—an overheated bearing—leading to derailment and then jackknifing tumbling cars.”
Moreover, the train appeared to have had its collective weight unbalanced; prior to PSR, the caucus said, trains would be built with the heavier cars on the head, and the lighter ones bringing up the rear. Such a practice would prevent what happened in Ohio: heavier cars slamming into lighter ones in front of them, causing the exact jackknifing that had occurred last week. The train allegedly had 40 percent of its weight on the rear one-third of the train.
Fortunately, despite these failures, the train’s three-person crew was able to quickly mobilize together and minimize damage. As railroads have brazenly proposed cutting crews to just one member, thank goodness that was not the case here.
“The short-term profit imperative, the so-called “cult of the Operating Ratio”—of NS and the other Class 1 railroads—has made cutting costs, employees, procedures, and resources the top priority,” the RWU said. Norfolk Southern recently reported record fourth quarter and annual revenues; just last year, the company announced $10 billion in stock buybacks. Meanwhile, its workers still don’t even have guaranteed paid sick leave.
The workers’ warnings here follow a continual campaign for better working conditions and safer rail outcomes. After the government in December imposed a contract on workers that did not include much-needed paid sick leave, workers continued rallying for such benefits as well as the guarantee of at least two-person crews and the elimination of PSR.
Nevertheless, during his State of the Union address, President Biden did not mention the plight of rail workers, nor did he even discuss the disastrous rail derailment.

So the rail workers were so extremely concerned about this safety issue that they were ready to strike. Then Biden became self-appointed dictator and said "Fuck safety, I'll fuck it harder than I fucked my daughter in the shower!"

DeWine turned a potential chemical spill into a freaking phosgene fog disaster that killed livestock and pets and settled on the air and water. So far little or no criticism in the mainstream media. WTF?

 

[ColonelAngus]

My liberal friend from Ohio who now lives in Florida is shocked by the lack of coverage by the media on this disaster.

I think this might red pill her!

Then came 2017: After rail industry donors delivered more than $6 million to GOP campaigns, the Trump administration — backed by rail lobbyists and Senate Republicans — rescinded part of that rule aimed at making better braking systems widespread on the nation’s rails.

Specifically, regulators killed provisions requiring rail cars carrying hazardous flammable materials to be equipped with electronic braking systems to stop trains more quickly than conventional air brakes. Norfolk Southern had previously touted the new technology — known as Electronically Controlled Pneumatic (ECP) brakes — for its “potential to reduce train stopping distances by as much as 60 percent over conventional air brake systems.”

Rail Companies Blocked Safety Rules Before Ohio Derailment

Norfolk Southern helped convince government officials to repeal brake rules — and corporate lobbyists watered down hazmat safety regs.

This had nothing do with the brakes. The wheel bearing overheated and the train caught fire

railroad accidents seem pretty common these days…welcome to xiden’s america

 

[EvilCat Breath]

The other option was a huge explosion.....as the governor said, both options were bad....


The real question is...why didn't that fag Bootyhole offer a better option?

Why did he allow this train wreck to happen in the first place?

Why? Easy answer. The families affected are those with both a mother and a father.

They are actually down from Trump's America.

It was spewing sparks from the seized bearing for miles. How the fuck is there not a safety feature to stop the train and/alert the engineer?

At least this ends any notions buttplug had about a future in politics.

You may be onto something.....that fag may have done this because he wants to kill off heterosexual couples with real children....not the fake children that fag has....

I think Republicans need to campaign on that more...dont be afraid to stand up to these tyranny's

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

At least this ends any notions buttplug had about a future in politics.

Don't get too excited, he could always urge residents in Ohio to inject bleach.....or, he can just pretend it isn't a big deal and tell everyone it's a hoax and to not fall for the media lies and stuff


Seeing as tho this train derailment may be responsible for the deaths of 2 to 3 million people easily...if not more
