The Biden administration’s repeated refusals to provide disaster assistance to residents in and near the site of Norfolk Southern’s East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment boggles the mind.
On Wednesday, the Ohio EPA released the results of tests they had conducted on the local water supply. The agency concluded they were “confident” that municipal water is safe to drink, according to WTRF-TV.
Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, a Republican, visited the area on Thursday to conduct a test of his own. The results showed a far different – and stunning – reality.
Vance dragged a stick along the bed of a local creek. Immediately, the toxins can be seen bubbling up into the water.
In the video below, Vance tells viewers: “Hey guys, so I’m here at Leslie Run and there’s dead worms and dead fish all throughout this water. Something I just discovered is that if you scrape the creek bed, it’s like chemical is coming out of the ground.”
Vance scrapes the creek bed with his stick and says, “Just see that chemical pop out of the creek. This is disgusting. And the fact that we have not cleaned up [from] the train crash. The fact that these chemicals are still seeping in the ground is an insult to the people who live in East Palestine. Do not forget these people. We’ve got to keep applying pressure. That’s how we’re gonna fix this problem. Thank you.”
Visited a local creek in East Palestine today. These waterways are still very polluted. It’s time for Norfolk Southern to finish the cleanup. Check this video out: pic.twitter.com/4lsHBmrMJj

Of course, there were plenty of liberal useful idiots on hand who sought to carry water (no pun intended) for the Biden administration by discrediting Vance’s motives.
As soon as you put the stick’s tip in the water, it gave off HC trails.
Which means the stick was coated in it. How the end of it is darker than the rest of the stick and it’s just touching the water.
Nobody doubts HCs are in the water now. But we should suspect your motives. pic.twitter.com/NDb7Y8poU7

Maybe because he’d already put the stick in the water Guacamole Dave.
But others who repeated Vance’s test got the same results he did. Watch what happens when a rock is thrown into the water.
Even MORE proof that the EPA is LYING to the people of East Palestine.

If this happened in another country, we would be sending aid immediately – in the millions.

On Wednesday, Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel told Fox host Harris Faulkner: “… I’m worried about down the line, vinyl chloride, small amounts of it in the environment leads to cancer. Even small amounts of it in the environment can affect fertility for generations to come. …”
This is absolutely an ecological disaster and the Biden administration’s failure to respond appropriately will be a stain on this presidency.
Vance provided a visual that all of us can understand. It’s clear that everything is not fine in East Palestine. And why the government is refusing to acknowledge the truth is simply astonishing.
It doesn’t take a science degree to know something isn’t right. The proof is obvious to everyone.
