    Toxic cloud over Flint ?
    Nah that would've led the news cycle all week. This is a toxic cloud hovering over flyover country after a "controlled burn" of chemicals from a derailed train caused a massive toxic cloud to spread over the town of East Palestine Ohio. One of the cars contained vinyl chloride . When burned this creates hydrogen chloride and phosgene .....one of the chemicals used in WWI gas attacks . When someone breaths it in the gas prevents oxygen from entering the bloodstream and prevents CO2 from leaving .
    When hydrogen chloride mixes with water it becomes hydrochloric acid. Fish and wildlife in the area is dying .Vinyl chloride is a known carcinogen linked to liver cancer.As the cloud dissipates it will enter the water supply.







    Transportation Sec. Mayor Pete was AWOL sorta . He did find the time to have a news conference where he said that there were too many white people in construction work....and joked about balloons .

    Where is Quid pro Joe on this ? The Norfolk Southern Corp owns the railroad. This is a group that has Vanguard as the top shareholder with 7.68%. BlackRock Fund Advisors and JPMorgan Investment Management tie at 4.54% as other top investors.
    NSC - Norfolk Southern Corp Shareholders - CNNMoney.com

    What else do they have in common ? Vanguard , JPMorgan , and BlackRock all gave significant sums of money to the Biden 2020 campaign

    JPMorgan Chase & Co Profile: Recipients • OpenSecrets
    BlackRock Inc Profile: Recipients • OpenSecrets

    Also Congressional Rep Bill Johnson was one of the Reps who voted to object to the 2020 election results . So even though this is one of the biggest environmental disasters in recent years ;a state of emergency has yet to be called .

    Clueless Joe turned down Ohio Guv DeWine's request for federal assistance even as the town of East Palestine has been turned into the equivalence of a Love Canal super fund site

    On Tuesday, Ohio environmental regulators confirmed that butyl acrylate was found in nearby waterways and that the spill did make its way to the Ohio River.

    Finally some action

    Trump is going to visit the town . So Clueless dispatched FEMA to assess the damage today .

    The derailment was February 3 . Controlled burn and release of the chemicals began February 6.

    It is 2 weeks later and now FEMA is going to work ?

    Trump went to East Palestine . Clueless Joe did not . Mayor Pete got his marching orders to go there tomorrow. He will have to interrupt personal time
