East Palestine, 100 Days Later | Working People – Everything Law and Order Blog

It’s been over 100 days since the catastrophic derailment of a Norfolk Southern train carrying over 100,000 gallons of toxic materials occurred in East Palestine, Ohio, on Feb 3. Since then, residents of East Palestine and the surrounding area in Ohio and Pennsylvania have had their lives turned completely upside down. Entire families have been uprooted from their homes, with many having to live in hotels or wherever they can find shelter, unable to return home out of fear of exposure to chemicals that were spilled into the water and soil from the derailment and spewed into the air from Norfolk Southern’s “controlled burn” of the vinyl chloride contained within multiple derailed train cars. Even though government and company officials have claimed the air is safe to breathe and the water is safe to drink, residents have continuously reported negative health effects from skin rashes, headaches, and dizzy spells to nausea, diarrhea, shortness of breath, and mouth numbness. Farm animals, pets, and crops have been contaminated, property values have plummeted, local businesses have shuttered or are barely surviving—all the while, frustrated residents report feeling lied to, misled, disregarded, and abandoned by Norfolk Southern and by their state and federal governments, and their ongoing nightmare has been gradually forgotten by the national media. In this urgent episode, we speak with Ashley McCollum, Kayla Miller, and Christina Siceloff—three residents of East Palestine and the surrounding area in Ohio and Pennsylvania, and members of the East Palestine Unity Council—about what they, their families, and their communities are going through, how they are banding together to provide mutual aid for one another, and what we can all do to help.

  1. …. meanwhile billions of dollars for Ukraine, millions for illegals, free hotels, free meals, free bus rides, but no help for Americans. This person in the Whitehouse is a disaster for this country.

  2. Yeah biden and his puppeteers made sure this happened. They can claim anything they want, but we all know it is planned by the true elites who run biden and this country! Why do you think almost everyone on both sides of the aisle hated trump???? It wasn't because he was "racist, misogynistic, blah blah blah"!!! It was because he couldn't be bought and corrupted like all these establishment politicians!!! I mean does anyone even take a minute to look at things?!?! DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE FBI WHISTLEBLOWER TESTIMONY IN CONGRESS?!?! NO! BECAUSE MOST OF YOU WERE FOCUSED ON THE 3-4 MASS SHOOTINGS THAT HAPPENED DURING THE EXACT SAME TIME! And then magically, after the hearings end the shootings just stop! People need to wake up and get out of the matrix! They planned those shootings to happen while these FBI agents exposed the corruption and filth of the agency. And they planned this train derailment to coverup something else! Honestly you people need to wake up!

  3. Migthy God , What On Earth is usa doing? Or Not* doing in this matter ? This is worse than Flint town – how hard can it be to start digging some pipelines with water to You ? They are knowenly* invalide and murdering You ! You cannot ever drink this water !
    (See and follow You -from Norway 🇧🇻)

  4. Living in the UK I Do envy people living in America all of the wide open spaces we live in a cramped overcrowded Island its so sad that the government over there is so corrupt the are happy to send billions of your money to Ukraine fighting a pointless war killing thousends of people while this sort of thing is happening to there own people and they sit back and do next to nothing to help.

  5. These people in control are scum. Society is like a stagnant pond. The scum always seems to rise to the top. Not allowing a private fun raiser, that is enough to open everyone's eyes surely. This should be Mainstream news. Of course all the important stuff isn't. The Dan Delilo novel that predicted this exact scenario in the exact same town. C'mon what are the odds people?

  6. Trust. Trust what your body is telling you. If it takes your breath away, you remove yourself from the situation as quickly as possible.

  7. I live 25 miles from east Palestine ohio i have lived in ohio my entire life and my heart hurts for my fellow ohians. Where i live the air also had a strange nasty smell the clouds and sky were like nothing i had ever seen. It disgust me that the incompetent and evil biden administration have done nothing to help because of politics but lets spend millions in the ukraine. President Trump would of taken care of east Palestine. The biden administration is more concerned with the LGBTQ and indoctrination of innocent children and made up white supremacy. This damage in east Palestine will affect the land and everything for decades to come and sadly east Palestine has been swept under the rug.

  8. This is so sad to hear. Another controlled disaster hushed and lied about to the world. My heart goes out to all living there.

  9. This project will go down in history as one of the most important to securing tangible wins in the near future. This type of content is pivotal to raising social consciousness on the immediate existential nature of class struggle. If our class enemies are so actively poisoning and plundering us, we need to relate the reality of our pain for the historical record and no less, our revolutionary evolution.

  10. Hit 100k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started with 8k in June 2022

  11. they cant get water because theres no money for it. its buying tanks for Ukraine. you're not a billionaire, so you dont get charity! this country is something else. 3rd world all the way.

  12. Even if Norfolk Southern is taken to court, what’s to keep them from pulling a ‘Trump’ move and putting it off for the next decade?

  13. GIVE THEM 1,000,000.00 EACH. MAN, WOMAN and CHILD NOW! This is not a lot of money. We send over a BILLION DOLLARS A MONTH TO UKRAINE. MAGA

  14. Absolutely terrible. But fantastic Real News coverage as always, making sure these stories continue to be heard. And shining a light on injustice and corporate greed leading to these disasters that impact innocent people in such bad ways.

  15. Very good podcast, and I wish these women well, as much as possible; for them and others of their area. Norfolk Southern and the govts need to help people who are innocently in such situations. Washington has provided MANY millions or else billions of dollars for Ukraine, run by a coup govt, but doesn't do much of anything to help people of the USA? Gotta get real.

  16. 11:25 wow, shutting down a water shipment
    "no emergency here folks"
    I wonder what water the governor is Drinking???? You can guarantee it's not from East Palestine.
    This whole mess is outrageous & unacceptable..!!
    It's become painfully obvious that this town and its residents are expendable.

  17. Corporate culture is the single biggest threat to humanity, Why? Because it is enshrined in corporate law that profit comes before any other consideration, even life itself. Cue; psychopathic leadership, catering to the greediest in society. USA is screwed… and if we don't watch it the rest of the world will follow. It is the American Way? That is what the world thinks of you, sickening or what? From UK

  18. Sheeple Should have Relocated Living in Highly Toxic Chemical Bioterrorism Culling the Cattle Depopulation Attacks Assaults Crimes Against Humanity Shameful
