#Texas #Fire #Explosion
The damages are irreparable. We all know it’s 💩
Yeah everbody fogot about our Palestine.
As usual, someone has been smoking at an inappropriate place. Typical Pendostan.
Less regulation, more guns, less humans.
All that toxic smoke will rain down poisoning everything
Another accident, right – bull crap, a terrorist attack.
Mire explosions under Biden than anyone else.. hmmm interesting, Don’t you think
Shelter in place? Isn’t that the LAST THING you should do?? 😬😬
I wouldn’t have stayed. Nope.
All you hear is texas is a bad state , texas is corrupt , etc. Stop the bs , it happens everywhere its not the state its the us government thats corrupt
I thought bidens epa was the best , guess not , and how about train car chemicals the biden administration set on fire before people could investigate, pete butitege had it under control
Funny because last time i checked Trump dufunded the EPA, put less restrictions on train and track regulations, and made it easier for corporations to get cheaper let’s also not for get both Ohio and Texas are both pro anti-regulation so basically its not joe biden epa thats failing its the ANTI-QREGLATIONS that made it harder for EPA to work in the first place.

Omg!😮
There you go , the young people now living within a 100 mile radius will develop cancer in the next 20 years. ……………. TRAGIC
Hey i live like 10 miles from the plant and everything is fine no need to worry
Our nation’s private & public infrastructure is horribly unsafe and needs rebuilt and repaired . These types of preventable catastrophes happen a lot in the richest country in the world .this one is just the latest to be striking in video since the Palestine Ohio derailment And there are fatalities to the workers and neighbors close by. Its profits over citizen and environment safety. Yet instead of out tax dollars going to infrastructure repair and private corporate industrial and rail inspections by public government inspectors like OSHA ( i doubt it exists anymore. it saved a lot of industrial workers lives ) ,over 50% of our taxes goes to the military industrial complex and wars we have no business starting or being involved in
Skin and eye irritants but let’s make everyone within a 5 mile radius shelter in place!? Nothing is hidden anymore. Flee, leave your homes. And of they’re barricading exits? You go through them. This is all horse crap.
Let me guess what caused this, deregulation? Seems to always be the case. But we keep letting corporations bribe politicians to let them do it, and the ones paying the price as always are the taxpayers. Absolutely disgusting.
Sorry yall….I’m in Tx too….sleeper cells….
Unbelievable..
I blame trump
Good luck… Remember East Palestine Ohio?
