Erin Brockovich Breaks Silence on Ohio Train Disaster: ‘This Is Why People Don’t Trust Government’
Erin Brockovich has broken her silence on the Ohio train distance to blast Democrat President Joe Biden and the federal government.
Brockovich, the famous whistleblower, environmental activist, consumer advocate, and the subject of an Oscar-winning film, warned that the Biden admin’s handling of the train derailment in eastern Ohio is the reason “people don’t trust the government.”
She said: “I don’t trust the EPA testing; they’re talking out of 2 sides of their mouth-they say they didn’t find any air contaminants within the limits they’re looking for, that says to me that doesn’t mean you didn’t find it.
“Do you really have enough information to call ‘all clear’?
“There just seems to be a big gap, a lack of transparency, smells like a coverup—what the hell is going on?
“If you don’t know what the hell is going on you need to tell the community I’m not sure what the hell is going on.”
“It’s just a kick in the gut when a community finds out once again, yeah, our local, state, and community leaders don’t have our back.”
That's all fine, but what about the dead animals? The dead fish? The sick people? The statements by those agencies you are kind of supporting that everyone can live in the contaminated area? The Netflix movie about the same thing a year ago? The update to Vinyl Chloride by CDC before the train derails?
Also, the railway employees being put on shit schedules for years now? Someone who works in the railway industry stating that the wheel's sparking is related to maintenance that's never done on time?
I'm just saying once the train is off the tracks (literally) then what?
There are limited options. Your not going to put Humpty Dumpty back together again easily.
There were plenty of F ups to go around.

Yeah, other than not transporting these chemicals to start with, I don't know what else you do. Even if standards improved, I don't think the materials produced with these chemicals justify the risk.

Just Moments After Trump Declares Trip to East Palestine, FEMA Announces Reversal on Ohio Disaster Aid
The City of Cincinnati announced on Friday that it will shut down its Ohio River intake to prevent any possible contamination from the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment earlier this month.
The city, in a statement, said that it and the Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) are monitoring the Ohio River, one of the largest rivers in the United States, after the chemical spill in East Palestine. Earlier this week, an Ohio environmental official confirmed that a plume of chemicals was observed traveling down the Ohio River, and at the time, it was located near Huntington, West Virginia.

A Vice President Buttigieg, having only an unremarkable tenure as mayor of South Bend and a terrible tenure at the Department of Transportation to his name, would be one medical event away from the nation’s top office.
I don't think it's possible to set up and succesfully execute a railroad-wide conspiracy to keep one particular train car out of regular maintenance and then put it in a right place at a right time.
Kill some chickens in 10 mile (OK, I'll be generous - 100 mile) circle around a small town in Ohio and thus force the whole world to "eat ze bugz"
There must be more efficient means to reach that end methinks.
