Toxic Water Leak Causes State Of Emergency In Florida | NBC Nightly News
The Core of Engineers signed off on this?
Do they have any involvement at all? It’s a private facility. Why weren’t the corporate owners made to clean up their mess long ago?
This is so bad.
OMG This is terrible 😢
2020 and 2021 are twins
No. Just more of the same from this wicked system of things.
Oh man. Too bad Republicans hate infrastructure when it costs tax money.
Oh man, to bad your a lost sheep
Yeah it is. They destroyed your lungs last year with coco-19 Now this is the the final nail. You can’t survive a radioactive drink. All of your organs will fail in 3 months sooner for children and elderly. If you haven’t left Florida yet you were warned by the news.
they are pumping it into the gulf , how is that a solution??
@Ryan Meadows Say WHAT…ever hear of the red tide algae bloom…weren’t you listening to the expert being interviewed…
to say nothing of the possible side effects on the marine life. I wouldn’t be eating shrimp from the gulf for a while ….
I think the alternative is considered worse.
Dilution is the solution.
They should spread over field and hope it dries
Wow
1..
2..
3..
They will blame Jhy-na over it. Trust me.
Power grid in Texas, fecal tsunami in Florida.
Sounds about white
this is part of Bidens infrastructure plan
Huh?
Yes part of Biden’s infrastructure plan will go toward fixing things like this.
@Jordan Jang No doubt Florida will refuse one dime of that because it’s socialism.
No, it’s the result of NO INFRASTRUCTURE plan , for decades. Stop the stupid lies.

I hear it tastes great ! 😋
Lolol better then tide pods
*Picks up wine glass*
“I’m picking up notes of ammonia and hepatitis”
Why was this allowed to build up in the FIRST PLACE?!
MONEY
Well it’s all the other senile guy’s fault that orange radical Plump
What’s happening😭
Biblical
They will blame President Joe Biden for what happens in Florida. President Biden was in way the cause of this Florida F-UP! Mr. Biden never even held office in Florida.
Trump always got the blame for everything. Why would you think it would be different for Bidan. This is typed with a reasonable time of fingers.😁
I personally blame Trump for this.
Somehow.
@Hammeredge M.J.C. Can’t wait for the REPUBLICAN Governor De Santis to beg Biden for socialist relief. Haw! Haw! Here comes the fecal tsunami!!!! Run to GOP paradise Texas. Their power grid is almost up and running.
Forget the houses.
Save the ocean.
Hey Florida is a red State Republicans enjoy
Enjoy not stepping on the feces and syringes waiting for you on the side walks of San Francisco.
@Cee Jay <--Asshole it's Floriduhhh
@Rodolfo Garcia c********** Republican what did you expect?
@Cee Jay Enjoy the fecal tsunami that is about to hit Florida. I hear MSM is going to film it in 4K.
@Rodolfo Garcia I’m hoping that a fecal tsunami washes the Trumps out to sea.
Oh scary the daylights out of you is easy when you might become homeless and people are going to stare and point and talk about you because I told you people care about it’s how you will appear to the outside world well now you’re going to appear like a homeless man with a house full of stinking s*** and that the likes me no end 😂😆😂😆😂
It’s not radioactive maybe not but it is full of feces 😆
Save the man made materials, screw the gulf of mexico and whatever is in it.
Your garage is pretty full TMI !!! Lol
epa failure… how is a company permitted to produce waste it cannot dispose of responsibly… this should not be happening in 2021
*oo i’m sooo sure your REPUBLICAN GOV will just wave his Magic Ron Desantis wand over the problem and it will be Mission accomplished!!!*
Are you telling me that Florida’s water supply has neurotoxins? That explains everything.
Need new infrastructure
Florida man swims in this stuff lol
We have Noone to blame but ourselves for all the chaos that goes on.
Really? I blame greedy capitalists and the 1%
@Julie really. You keep giving them your money
Amen
Lol what a joke. This 100% falls on greedy GOP. You know, the ones who put oil guys in charge of EPA…
@lulu in hollywood moronic comment. They both do it sheep
This is what happens when a Republican controlled state is so pro-business it ruins the environment. Environmental regulations?? Forget it. They deserve what they created.
Couldn’t agree more
Those responsible for this should be forced to drink and bathe in it.
The mountainous energy numerically guide because white inherently groan to a quixotic select. vulgar, wacky paper
Aww Florida…if it ain’t a sink hole…it’s a sh*t hole… 😂
Florida was named by explorer Ponce de Leon in 1513. The name “Florida” comes from the Spanish word “florido,” which means “full of flowers.” They should change the name to Baño.
Why not dump that toxic swill into the gulf, better to make the oceans suffer than someone’s home. Big business needs to be held accountable for their mess.
Republicans need to be removed from Florida, this is ridiculous this was allowed to happen.
It is their own fault. I don’t feel sorry for them.
It has been leaking for a long time! It’s now showing it’s true colors and the government can’t ignore it now! Because they know people can see it leaking also. That’s why I said it has been leaking a very long time. And it’s a shame nobody did anything about it prior to this disaster!
Fear fear fear
old infra. dams, reservoirs, bridges. a lot of them old and outdated. hope budget for them arent blocked or obstructed.
Well there goes Florida
The important stuff is upstairs. Get a storage unit out of harm’s way. Who buys a house downstream from that mess?
STFU
They get what they vote for. Dumb Republicans
BREAKING NEWS: Florida man has let loose and caused a state of emergency
Well, Florida you are definitely the US’ toilet now.
Naaaa. Still jersey
Well….crap
Between Texas and Florida this demonstrates the need fixing the infrastructure. Costly mistakes brought about by neglect and the unwillingness to invest in our own interests.
Another win for STUPID.
And these dumb Republicans argue about reducing infrastructure repairs and upgrades… let these turds float in their swamps.
ի
All while on Joe Biden’s watch.
Where is the old dirt bag?
Keep government regulations out of my life! 😆😆😂😂
Now remember Florida is surrounded by water so this is a warning ⚠️ waken up 📢📢📢📢📢📢📢
We been told for years decades we are sinking and a swamp! Fla will not uphold much more
See we don’t need infrastructure help. Oh wait, this must be a red finger or whatever Marge Green says all shootings are…
Republican run states are dangerous to live in.
Omg..
Florida, cant be serious right now… hmm .. .” 300 million gallons of contaminated water on homes and businesses.”
Supper tRump will be there to stop it 🏌️♂️⛳⛳⛳⛳🤔

Thanks DRUMPF
So they destroy the homes of sea life to save human homes. The sea life didn’t cause this problem.
Great man doing what it knows best, ruining its home and destroying the environment!!
Lol. It will smell the the ocean took a giant crap in about a month.
Bad algae that goes into the air!
Lol Suffer Florida Suffer!
endless money for the army.
my idol Sam you looks young young and young, gwapo gwapo and gwapo po.
This is what happens when a political party wants to gut environmental regulations “cause they might impact corporate profits ….Wonder who”s gonna pay for this disaster ???
Fertilizing
More corporate tax breaks please
GOP already did that last year bro, keep up
All of America’s mismanagement catching up
Then they will sale you sea food from the gulf next at inflation prices
like I always say God don’t like ugly you going to give the rich people about the shots and forgets about the poor and the working class whites and people of color this is what you get God does not like ugly
Like gubbernent will be Honest 🤯🤯😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤐🤐🤐🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂
It all comes down to the history of human greed …
The water going into the Gulf won’t stay just in the Gulf…it will poison in whatever direction the ocean flows….catastrophic for the whole ocean biosystem…
US would have make a huge deal out of it if this happens in China. Yet, China says nothing about USA. LOL
They can’t really say anything about pollution tbh

Just put some bath salts in it
Deregulation and companies will screw you every time.
“We should have never have let this happen”
Hindsight is 20/20. Let’s fix the problem and move on.
All those rich people in Florida and you can understand how being selfish human beings can put you in this situation. Selfish people have a instinct intuition to just die off I guess.
😂😂😂😂 Not radioactive!!!
May ALLAH ALMIGHTY DESTROY EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU TYRANTS AMEEN !
Who was sleeping
The fish and wild life will be dying by the millions
This is nothing compared to India
Somebody’s poisoned the water hole
Not toxic? Ive worked on the pond it was specifically built to hold nasty stuff, something that was never supposed to get out

Deregulation works!
This is exactly what Biden is trying to correct. We can no longer sit on lead pipes and breaks. The X-Trump didn’t care about this. You republicans need to take NOTES…you can learn a lot from Joe Biden; or maybe you are too comfortable in your stupid existence.
This is why america needs joe Biden to take care of the environment.
lol…this pool existed during all 8 years of Obama/Biden.
So there going to Contaminate the Gulf!!
They just trying to scare people from moving there in droves
It’s REPUBLICAN Florida! What do you expect? Yet another reason to never vote Republican ever again!

They are pumping this into Tampa Bay, not the gulf.
