OPINION: TuckerCarlson: Mayor Pete is completely incompetent
Fox News host Tucker Carlson calls out the Biden administration's response to the Ohio chemical catastrophe following the train derailment on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight.'East Palestine, Ohio is not a huge place. It's a town of about 5,000 people not far from Pittsburgh. For many years, East Palestine was known as the place that produced dishes and cups and pitchers for America's hotels. The enormous ceramics works there employed much of the town.
So this train derailment was an environmental disaster, not an"environmental disaster" like climate change is, but an actual environmental disaster, a disaster that's hurting actual people.And then it got worse. Several days after the derailment, officials decided it was a good idea to set fire to the spilled chemicals. And the result of that decision was a giant toxic mushroom cloud over the entire region.
People living near the site of an Ohio train derailment that resulted in the controlled release of toxic chemicals fear returning home.The railroad company is responsible for this and for these people wjho went back to their homes. Their homes should have been tested. Their homes should have been cleaned. From the onset, These people were being marginalized in an effort to mitigate this.
The hazmat specialist in that video, Sil Caggiano explained to local media that it's such vinyl chloride on the train, that's not the only threat. There's also ethylene gas and we're quoting."You're looking at five, 10, 15, 20 years down the line until you see potential long-term effects. This stuff seeks low lying areas. It could be in sewers, it could be in nooks, crannies and crevices. Of course, that's how poison gas works. Ask anyone in Verdun.
Air quality? What about water? Oh, water. What does that have to do with climate change? Well, it's the one thing you can't do without. After about two and a half days, you die. But they're not even checking the water. While residents of East Palestine were inhaling toxic fumes, Mayor Pete was joking about the Chinese spy balloon his boss allowed to fly across the country. He's a funny guy. Watch this.I mean, if you look at what the American transportation systems have faced in the last two or three years, partly because of the pandemic, we've faced issues from container shipping to airline cancellations. And now we've got balloons.
