While our brothers and sisters in Ohio are recovering from a Chernobyl-esque disaster, the Biden administration continues to send billions to Ukraine.
Not only that, but they have been awfully quiet about a toxic event that should be the #1 topic dominating the news cycle right now. …
Authorities—if we can even call them that—have instructed people to return to their homes and continue with life as usual as if nothing catastrophic occurred.
Officials have reassured people that the water is safe to drink and the air safe to breathe…
However, conflicting reports point to an inconvenient truth. …The environment in, and surrounding, East Palestine remains devastated and people have suffered injuries as a consequence of the toxic event.
Here are the latest developments regarding testimony from the community in East Palestine and the town hall meeting that recently took place:

Instead of sending the next billion to Ukraine, we should send it to Ohio.pic.twitter.com/nyoG1mLnmG

Trending Politics shared one victim’s account of the fallout:
“I went down 170 and I took a breath of that s**t into my lungs and I thought I was going to die.
And then I came back on Sunday and I drive through a cloud of s**t at the bottom of 170 and I thought I was going to freaking die.
And it stressed me enough I ended up in the hospital. They thought I was gonna have a damn heart attack.
So what did I breath in? That’s what I want to know. What did I breathe in? What is everyone else breathing in?,
Fish are dying. Animals are dying. East Palestine is dying. People are next.
And the climate alarmists haven’t said a single word. It was never about the environment.pic.twitter.com/t0e231oZeC

The line to get into the East Palestine town hall tonight stretches for a half mile. THOUSANDS of people are PISSED and none of them trust what the government is telling them.
Good.

Kyle Becker writes via his Substack:
Meanwhile environmental activists have been very subdued about the threat posed by the ecological catastrophe.
While they will loudly clamor about Polar Bears purportedly drowning melting due to melting glaciers, they apparently don’t have much to say about the East Palestine, Ohio spill endangering the long-term health of thousands of Americans, as well years of agriculture.
Perhaps they would be more vocal if Donald Trump were president. That’s where we are with these phonies and frauds.
