  1. IT WAS ON FIRE 20 MILES BEFORE REACHING THE TOWN OF PALESTEIN !!!! I would call that critical !!!! DUH !!!!!

  2. So it wasn’t Trump’s fault after all.

  3. Rude renter, most in office are the rude ones

  4. They talk about the 3 defect detectors with hot box detection, but there's something they're not mentioning:

    Milepost 79.8 (Sebring, OH) Hot box and dragging equipment detection (38°F above ambient)

    Milepost 69.0 (Salem, OH) Hot box and dragging equipment detection (103°F above ambient)

    Milepost 60.8 (Columbiana, OH) Dragging equipment detection only…

    Milepost 49.8 (East Palestine, OH) Hot box and dragging equipment detection (253°F above ambient and triggered a stop)

  5. Simple solutions – the CEO of Railroad and all "C" levels, Presidents and Vice Presidents with their families need to move into those East Palestine homes for a year. along with the, EPA, Ohio EPA and testing companies.

  6. Finally, a significant mention of the preceeding wayside detectors.

  7. standards for hot box detector alarms (temperature thresholds) are set by the Assoc of American Railroads (AAR) not the NS

  8. 0:34 fire started due to combination of hot axle and hopper car 23 plastic pellets. 0:44 train passed 3 defect detectors (presumably, Salem, Columbiana, E Palestine), showed increasing temperature, first two deemed non-critical by NS (there is no official universal government standard) 1:30 3rd detector reading in critical territory 1:59 detectors nor track implicated, still investigating. 2:39 wheel bearing failed while decelerating…

  9. Sorry, where have you been? Biden giving American $500 million of our taxes to Ukraine. USA IN TROUBLE. NOBODY SHOWED UP. 😡

  10. Big shout out to President Trump for helping the citizens of Ohio

  11. Right after the crash I Saw a video of the wheels on train red hot and throwing sparks minutes before crash

  12. Israel has gone Far Right. End Apartheid now

  13. Lets not forget who the owner of Norfolk Southern is.. WARREN BUFFET! Warren also owns controlling interest in CNN and NBC. Still wonder why it took so long for the story to show up on "The Nightly News with Lester Holt?" Why? Because it effects STOCK PRICES! Warren Buffet's a Multi-million DNC doner. The CEO of Norfolk Sothern is Allen Shaw. Another Multi-Million dollar DNC doner. Mr. Shaw was also the keynote speaker at the DNC convention. Now do you understand WHY Biden, Mike Regan and Mayor Pete didn't show? Only Fox covered this. BUT HOLD ON… Fox is being sued? Tha law suit's Buffet's way of getting even with Murdock for Airing train wreck! I say, We let the RICH AS FCK Oligarch's duke this out!

  14. Railroad industries and their technology and giant political tentacles operations have been one of the oldest and wealthiest industries since industrial revolution to today. So, do you think that they have known how to control their donated politicians? Research on labor unions, pacific railroad history and the filthy rich railroad dynasty families.

    Be aware of those sleezy political opportunists!

  15. Car 23 derailed (2023) in total 38 cars derailed (3+8 = 11) fire damaged an additional 12 cars. Feb 5 firefighters mitigated the fire (2/25) 2+2+5=9 (add to the 38 derailed cars you have your 9/11. A survivors rep group has already chimed in). Seriously I only wanted to hear an update I am sick of the coding.

  16. Imagine being affirmative action trash

  17. What a joke fall of Rome in real time politician's are corrupt on all levels

  18. "OMG, I must get to Ukraine right away!"
    said no legitimate president ever.

  19. 17 days later and she's able to tell us about how many train cars were on the train? EVERYTHING ELSE, we already knew. Thanks for waking the hell up NTSB and EPA!

  20. Meanwhile Biden is about to give bill gates more power over everybody https://www.youtube.com/live/ETOgkkoG9JU?feature=share Phuk this administration!!

  21. Why isn’t fema there yet

  22. …100% INTENTIONAL!!!
    ..all the podcasts we all watch, all these crazy theories… this is how “The BRANDON Camp” begins some “Clean Energy Reform” and we will spending fortunes on some type of Monorail, or Reverse Magnet type project. Laugh? Sure, it sounds crazy, has anyone noticed theres very rare car commercials for Pump Gas cars?

  23. Bidens RR union buddies spent billions last year on stock buybacks.
