The Big Three networks ignored news that the Biden administration denied disaster assistance to Ohio’s pro-Trump Columbiana County following the toxic train derailment in East Palestine.
Fox News reported Feb. 16 that Governor Mike DeWine (R-OH) spokesperson Dan Tierney said the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) denied federal aid because it “believed the [train derailment] incident didn't qualify as a traditional disaster, such as a tornado or hurricane, for which it usually provides assistance.” The incident led to a controlled explosion and the spewing of hazardous fumes into the atmosphere, with reports of groundwater damage, dead animals and health issues circulating. Newsweek even reported the turmoil could evolve into a “Full-Blown Ecological Crisis.” The denial of aid calls into question why the U.S. government is willing to commit more than $24.9 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the Biden administration but not an American town in turmoil.
Additional context may provide some insight as to why Biden’s FEMA did not pursue providing aid for that particular area, and why the ABC, CBS and NBC morning and evening news shows chose to ignore the story between Feb. 16 - Feb. 17.
Biden released details on a new executive order advancing racial equity on Feb. 16, the same day as the Fox News report. Biden claimed his goal was to “advance an ambitious, whole-of-government approach to racial equity and support for underserved communities and to continuously embed [racial] equity into all aspects of Federal decision-making.” Could that include FEMA’s decision-making? According to the latest breakdown, East Palestine is 93.5 percent white, three percent Hispanic, and only 0.36 percent black.
In addition, Columbiana County, where East Palestine is located, 71.7 percent of the vote went overwhelmingly for former President Donald Trump in the 2020 election

This administration has spent millions in FEMA funds for hotels, transportation and food for illegals, to make sure its human trafficking efforts are successful and the trespassers are comfortable. Those funds were not intended for that, yet they claim this train derailment doesn’t qualify for these funds.
And Gov. DeWine seems to go along with it.
Unbelievable.
The Love Canal contamination site was declared a federal emergency and FEMA was long involved in its remediation:

That’s a very comparable example. There remains a LOT of cleanup to do in East Palestine.
I haven’t mentioned this yet, in my many posts on this topic but.... Phosgene is NOT the biggest threat from burning VCM. The real threat is PCB’s. They’re heavy. They will lay down on a creek bed bottom. And, they are cacogenic at extremely low levels.
the ground water is the prob now
money for Ukraine...
The Big Three networks ignored
Yes they are you can find propaganda any place now days.
There are no networks, only branches of the federal government with varying levels of loyalty.
We need to burn down those phone lines...
Tell Biden to get the alphabet agencies out of the way!!
Yes the bigger the nose ring the greater the loyalty
