Florida County Evacuated After Breach In Wastewater Reservoir | NBC Nightly News
Yes yes
Yes yes too you all’s
Ye yes yes
Who could believe DeSantis??
And Floridians vote for these incompetent administrations?
Thanks to this report, Google taught me today something new: phosphate fertilizers contain uranium and radon. That opens the „why“ question.
No wonder Desantis and Desanitize are so similar.
This is what you get by having decades of GOP LEADERSHIP and VOTER SUPPRESSION
Looks like Billy Gotz wants to reclaim an area of Florida for a mosquito release…
Guessing DeathSantis might need to take up Biden on that infrastructure plan after all huh?
This story is being covered as an environmental disaster for Florida, when in truth it affects everyone everywhere. We are all intricately connected. If humans woke up they would understand that, and protect all life forms. Sadly, we are instead dying, slowly.
Oh yummy 😋
Did anyone think having a lake of toxic waste was ok ? I mean , decades ? So, there was Never a thought to finding a solution ? An end to a certain health & environmental catastrophe waiting to happen? Look at what your dealing with , this was not sustainable .
Eewww filthy america so quick to point your finger at other nations while your own country is crumbling beyond return what a disgrace to the human race
remember flint mi
A RED STATE DISASTER AGAIN!
Palmetto Florida #eeeeeeeee
Breaking News: Florida Man breaches wastewater reservoir
If we didn’t pollute our planet then this could be avoided. Or if we were not driven by greed then it could have been fixed decades ago.
So…wheres GOPQ on this? Matt Gaetz, hes from Florida lol
you have a lined pond holding this water for decades but now all of a sudden the water is safe……….FFS
The green water pouring out of a pipe isn’t seawater.
Millions of water stored in a manmade radioactive lake in Florida? What could *possibly* go wrong?!
Wonder how much corruption whether political or corporate played a roll in this!
Imagine if all this just part of promotion event for godzilla vs kong movies
Trillions and trillions of infrastructure US Dollars available right now. Ref Joe Biden Corp.
This is what happens when republicans lift safety controls and relax supervision on big corporations handling of expensive, but needed, safety measures. Remember the Texas disaster? How much will it cost the state and the citizens to relocate? How much will it cost the company to address the disaster? “IT IS WHAT IT IS, RIGHT”?
If you drink bleach it will go away
Trump took a dump.
Another wonderful day in Late (end?) Stage Capitalism.
Wow 😥
Why isn’t Ron in Mexico?
Great…dump it in the ocean. Who cares about sea life and the other catastrophic effects it will have on the planet. No biggie.
Gov. Ron DeSantis, enough said! you get what you voted for, good luck yakll
and yet another environmental hazard in DeSantis failing state….notice how all the avoidable disasters and huge humanitarian crisis’ take place in red states.
Fluba overload
Hiden Biden please send Big Harry! She will fix it. There’s no crisis at the border. MSNBC has your back. Big Harry to the rescue!
Same mismanagement by Teapublicans and corporations, different day….
I thought the majority republicans in Florida agreed with Trump that the environment is not worth saving🤔
NOT RADIOACTIVE!!!
“At a press conference Sunday morning, DeSantis said officials are pumping out 33 million gallons of water a day from the pond, and that the water “is not radioactive,” although another official added that the water is “not water we want to see leaving the site.” The primary concern, DeSantis said, is the nutrient makeup of the water, which contains metals. Reports on water samples should be available in the coming days.”
NBC CORPORATE BEAST SYSTEM IS CONSPIRING WITH ALL THE ATROCITY AGAINST US. MSNBC SERVES THE ANTICHRIST WHO PLAYS WITH PRESCHOOLERS IN THE PARK URINAL WITH UNCLE JOE
Governor desantis needs president Biden inferstuction plan. Florida don’t believe governor desantis.
Red state chaos again.
When did DeSantis become a scientist..ya right..
Ridiculous and reckless, look what happened in Texas,now this in Florida, infastruture neglect plus a new variant ,shout out to the Republican Accountability moment and Coca-cola ,for standing against Kemp notice all GOP ,not only do they oppose diversity and equilty , they don’t even take care of their own supporters,I wish they would wake up and stand with democracy ,and help remove the obstruction to true peace and democracy
Pwell Flint had water problems and nobody cared because the people were poor white and black now it looks like the people in Florida is white I don’t feel sorry for him now maybe the shoes on the other foot and that special goofball person that’s running the state they deserve what they get this is who you voted for this is what happened he cheated and this is what you get you always get good things that happens to you from the Republicans so just sit down and eat it live with it a lot of incompetence think about Flint you know nobody thought about Flint because it had nothing to do with them and maybe now they can think about what happened to the people in Flint
the people that standing there is just lying to you right there with the governor they’re trying to brainwash you and to believe and there’s no problem if you believe with these people say that you need to be poisoned by the water you voted for these people the people cheated to get to that to become governor well you know it hey like my grandma used to say you lay down on nails you would get you will get stuck
Why do they let this happen in the first place. He we go again with no fishing for the next ten years.
Where would the money have come from? We have “democracy” to spread everywhere on the planet…
DeSantis is a failure on Covid and a failure on this reservoir .
wHERE IS THE EPA ON THIS? AREN’T THEY SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF THESE THINGS FROM THE BEGINNIN? ARE THEY TAKING “PAY OFF?”
So the EPA guy is denying radioactivity??????Right on Government.
QAnon are idiots
I bet this is a terrorist attack. I bet we aren’t hearing everything
Praying for Gov Ron DeSantis and the people. Speaking to the Mountain .
Hc vm
It is interesting how radioactive wordage has been remove from news except for saying it is not a danger
Idiots destroying the earth what’s new . Didn’t they think about the natural gas plant before this happened ? Beyond sad. And who in their RIGHT MIND would dump all of this toxic crap into a Bay ????????
Man made ponds are a horrible idea. Just let nature do all the work.
Why is it Florida always being the worst lmao, I need to move
DeSantis looks like an alcoholic football dad
That is a issue a problem oil spills now this wow and they say no affect amazing to sit and lie to the public
Are they saying they live completely slums this is worse then bunny television
This is what happens to a 3rd world state like Florida is allowed to lie and spin everything with the help of the news. Florida is a toilet and needs to be flushed down a sink hole in the best interest of the rest of the US. DeSantis and Gaetz are both pukes who are more interested in showing power than actually doing anything that benefits its citizens. Again the government lets you down and you make excuses for them. Texas with its power, California with its fires and Florida with turd water shows if you do not take care of things preemptively it comes back to haunt you.
oh yeah..they all say ‘no threat of radio active water’ LOL LOL LOL liars all. INCOMPETENCE AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL…FOR YEARS.
What we’re looking at NOW, DESANTIS😡 is an inability to keep the Floridians safe far less the STATE😡! U, DeSantis, r a POS. I wouldn’t BELIEVE anything that he SAYS. People r drinking dirty water.
The title county evacuated. The truth 1/2 a mile perimeter. This is typical of the garbage we actually call news
I cannot wait until God “[brings] to ruin those ruining the earth.” (Revelation 11:18)
Amen🙏
Send in divers to find the entrance of the breech and start adding hydronic cement until and after it stops
“state environmental officials” are all right wing hacks, guaranteed.
who needs regulations? survival of the fittest. pull yourselves up by your bootstraps
Stupid people
Florida= Uncontrolled Trump, Uncontrolled Matt Gaetz, Uncontrolled Guns, Uncontrolled gators, Uncontrolled Toxic Waste, Violent hurricanes. Please stay tuned! More is coming.
Regulations is for wimps!
There are very serious problems in the social system.
Don’t worry DeathSantis 💀 is working with Publix to provide Geiger counters to FL residents.
The voracious coil promisingly excuse because direction substantially itch of a rightful russia. best, righteous network
Why dont Saudi rich n Powerful wont take in their Muslim refugees/Rohinya Refugees bcuz Saudi knows
Ghost is behind republicans , amen !
Humans gonna ruin this planet. We’re gonna be so sorry. But by then it will be too late.
Its breached. I know. let’s throw in large objects to increase pressure…wtf. That’s like the knife removal in Talladega Nights.
Cool
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 🐢 might soon be real after all.
The protective market disappointingly start because virgo ethnopharmacologically spark above a messy join. abrupt, trite napkin
But I thought Florida doesn’t like Government telling them what to do???….they are making a huge fuss over something with a 99% survival rate
The jail? Anybody evacuating the jail?!
I can Imagine home prices coming down,Anyone want to move to Flint Michigan
Omg.
Taiwan country is Not part of China (ROC =PRC) in the History. Taiwanese is NOT Chinese either.
* Though some Han Chinese Bandits or immigrants to Formosa(台灣) 300 years ago. But 95% of Han Chinese were single for life(路漢脚). Because native Islanders didn’t like marriage with alien Han Chinese …
* Even some Chinese (漢人) married with native Islanders, their children or offspring are NOT Han or Chinese anymore. They are hybrids children or Taiwanese (citizen of Taiwan).
* Chinese supremacists and arrogant can’t call people of another country is Han or Chinese, than claimed the Island is part of China(ROC =PRC). Cheating and Stealing in PASSING….
** Taiwan is NEVER part of China (ROC =PRC) in the History.
* Former U.S. President B announced in the Public:
“When you stand for your LIBERTY, we will stand for YOU”. Repeatedly many times.
Said ROC(China) was established in China 1912, didn’t include Formosa (Taiwan).
* Taiwan was Colony of Japan before 1952. [Formosa Island Taiwan is NEVER part of China (ROC =PRC) in the History)
* 1945 was WW2 ended (Wasn’t China and Japan War).
* Alien Chinese supremacists Chiang Kai Shek was convicted WW2 laws, He had evil intended to invade Taiwan, secretly contested (fighting) with U.S…
* Evil tricky Chiang K S faked stories and DISTORTED history to drag U.S. commander MacArthur felt plot, and as accomplice of Chiang K S to send 200K Chinese military attacked suddenly on Taiwan, kept shooting innocent Taiwanese for 16 days,….. Known as “228 HOLOCAUST”.
* 1949 Chiang K S was EXILED leader of China occupied Formosa(Taiwan) ILLEGALLY for temporary ASYLUM. But Chiang DISTORTED history to TAMPER “Taiwan” name. Replaced with “ROC slogan of Bogus gov”.ILLEGALLY.
* Than Chiang MADE up perjury stories to blame native born Taiwanese was espionage of China communist…. for purposes to impose “martial laws”. Then Chiang Granted army or police powers to shoot Taiwanese death before report cases.
* Chiang allowed army or police to killi or murder innocent Taiwanese continued 40 years”martial laws”since 1949, kept GENOCIDE innocent Taiwanese. Known as “WHITE TERROR”.
* Stranger Chiang Kai Shek was EXILED leader of China(ROC). Occupied Formosa Island ILLEGALly.
* Chiang faked stories and DISTORTED history and TAMPERED”TaIwan country” name. Replaced with “ROC slogan of Bogus gov “, he was acting violence of the world War crimes. But for China Communist rights to Claim Formosa (台灣) is part of China (ROC =PRC), said U.S. Former President B….
* So that the reason China communist Keeps threatened Taiwan Strait TENSIONS….
* I am speaking up for Taiwanese about TRUTH. And important BUT myths on Formosa(台灣)
1. Taiwanese rejected “Shanghai 3 Communique” that was illegal and unilateral conditions by China communist.
2. Taiwanese is rejected 92 Consensus (1 Country 2 systems), that was alien Hong Kong Han Chinese Illegal to drag Taiwan country as a bargaining chip to attractive China communist accepted 1 country 2 systems 30 years ago …
* 2005 Alien Hong Kong Chinese arranged China high levels and Ma Ing Jou(Former president of Taiwan) for a meeting in Hong Kong secretly. “92 consensus” is reaffirmed 1 country 2 systems.
★ If anyone is not agreed on the above #1.and # 2. Please replying to explain who and how were happening on them….
*** **美國前前 總統 B.公開宣佈 Former U.S. President Bush expressed:
“When you Standing for your LIBERTY, we will stand for YOU”. Repeatedly many times(重複多次).
* And said ROC /China was established in China 1912. DIDN’T include Formosa Island (TaIwan). (又說中華民國是1912年在中國成立，並沒有包括台灣，台灣1952年之前是屬於日本國).
* and the “ROC” is an “Entity” for China communist rights to Claim Taiwan is part of China (ROC =PRC).
* Taiwan was Colony of Japan before 1952. (1952 年之前台灣是屬於日本國),
* 1949 Chiang Kai Shek was EXILED leader of China occupied Formosa Illegally. He Tampered “Taiwan”
country name， replaced w/ROC bogus gov ILLEGALLY. (1949 年蔣介石逃亡到台灣島上避難，他偷天換日，非法篡改”台灣” 國家名称，改為 “中華民國偽政府” 的口號 欺騙外國人).
* And He IMPOSED ROC constitutions (1912 established in China) on Taiwanese is stranger that NEVER has happened in the world. (他非法把 1912年在中國寫下的保護中國人的憲法施壓在台灣人民，世界上未發生的怪事).
* ROC(China) was Established in China 1912. 中華民國是1912年打敗 滿州國，新成立的國家.
* 1895 年滿清政府(不是中華民國)， Monchu kou Is Not ROC(China). 簽署 馬關條約(signed TREATY of Shimonosek) 永久割讓台灣給日本(Abandoned Taiwan to Japan perpetually)。
* Because Chiang K S was CRIMES against WW2 laws and human rights 2 大重罪法案。 1978 年被聯合國 以 2758號法令 驅逐蔣介石。
* 從此 中華民國(ROC=PRC) 是代表中國共產國家和 14億中國人(包括港澳地區)才有中國領土主權在聯合國組織的唯一中國原則。
* 2019 蔡英文欺騙壓迫台灣島國人，拒絕破壞台灣民間團體辛苦努力爭奪恢復合法 “台灣正名公投”的活動。
* 2020 蔡英文狡猾霸權拒絕美國官員提出友好邦交的誠意，借題假造”時機不對” 傲慢自大中國人心態，故意模糊政治邪惡口號，欺人自欺。 完全不尊重人民。鄙視台灣全國人是領土主人的決定權利。
Ok wait, IS IT OR ISNT IT RADIOACTIVE WASTE THAT IS POURING OUT, OR WHAT.
Karma Karma Karma, Texas has a natural disaster, most Republican state ever, then Florida probably the second most and now this. First it was Covid and obscuring numbers, now this.
How long has this been leaking? People can’t fix it when they first noticed this? Goes into the gulf to join whats left over for the big oil sipll?
THEY CALLED THE NATIONAL GUARD, FINALLY! BUT ALL THEY DID WAS BRING SOME MORE HOSES TO SPILL MORE??
WHY NOT REENFORCING THE STRUCTURE USING THICK RUBBER LINING. YOU CAN JUST SUBMERGE IT AND USE PLASTIC SCREWS TO ATTACH THEM.
IT FEELS TO ME THIS IS ALL AN ACT. THEY ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH.
Republican government.
