Turns out Trump was planning a visit to help out and donate money…now the WH sends FEMA after Biden initially denied it had led the people high and dry without support
https://www.cleveland19.com/2023/02/18/donald-trump-visit-train-derailment-east-palestine/ 11 hours ago An hour later? https://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/3864078-ohio-governor-says-fema-will-provide-resources-to-east-palestine/ Shows Trump is more effective to get the help needed to these people. Thank you Trump for showing you still care about Americans first! |

Yup. A reactive White House is a cowardly White House |

We'll see what Trump does. Trump is for Trump and no one else. |

False narrative. White House was offering and sending resources long before Trump got into the mix. |

Biden never "denied" anything. Nothing could happen until the Governor acted. Please stop with the lies. |

Republicans love deregulation. That would lead to more of this:

Just lovely. Republicans truly disgust me with their blind trust of industry and constant push to deregulate everything. |

Our “Transportation Secretary” is much too busy (with media events) to start to making any effort towards proposing one single safety measure. |

Funny how that far left rag propaganda rag Forbes /s has an article from the beginning of February about Buttegeig ramping up transportation safety initiatives. https://www.forbes.com/sites/rhettbuttle/2023/02/02/infrastructure-safety-and-equity-a-conversation-with-transportation-secretary-pete-buttigieg/?sh=2f22e5cf47b1 That infrastructure bill provisions are only just starting to turn on. But I'm sure you aren't hearing any of that from FOX News, who is too busy trying to deflect from Trump's gross malfeasance of rolling back dozens of regulations that could have prevented this. |

“Chemical [ industry] lobbyists got Obama officials to exempt the Ohio train from the “high-hazard flammable train” classification & its tough safety regs.
Rail lobbyists then got Trump to repeal a rule to force rail giants to start using better brakes. “ —David Sirota |

Obama-era high-hazard rules were repealed by Trump. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/feb/17/occupy-democrats/obama-era-safety-rule-high-hazard-trains-was-repea/ |
