2 toxic fires in Florida this week.
Thank you Erin for standing up for the people they need to advocate!!!💗💗🤗
SOMEONE THAT HAS THE WAYS AND MEANS NEEDS TO BE TESTING THE WATER ALL OVER THAT AREA BECAUSE THE EPA AIN'T GOING TO SHARE THE TRUTH ABOUT S***
I would like to know why there are not stations where trains enter and exit states like Weight stations for trucks to monitor the trains conditions as they come through or should at least be some kind of heat sensors detecting the temperatures of the wheels and brakes
BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT….HAH! YEP…"SAFE AND EFFECTIVE" WAKE UP AMERICA
look at Katrina no government help.history repeats itself
When are we the people going to stop Washington d c
Well Erin, here’s the next movie-opp.
You can take down the big, mean company AND the big mean government .
Go gettum!!
God bless you Erin
The EPA should provide 'free' water tests and brought truck loads of drinking water for the residents. And we're supposed to trust the head of the EPA about everything being OKAY? I noticed the cleanup team is only 3 – 4 men 'without' hazmat gear for protection, (when there should be teams of HAZMAT workers); and someone put a tiny pool -noodle across the river as if that's going to help. SMFH WHERE'S OUR TAX MONEY BEEN GOING FOR THE PAST 50 YEARS, THE EPA SHOULD BE ABLE TO CLEAN UP HAZMAT SITUATIONS IMMEDIATELY and ENFORCE FINES!
You have it in the ass! You are all going to have cancer, nature is dead and the animals are going to die. The whole region is contaminated. Praying is useless. They will put you to sleep with stupid reports. All the people who live in this region, you have it very deep! And you're not going to do anything because you're not a welder! You are not capable of mobilizing by the millions like in France. You are children…
Chemicals burning in Doral Florida also ..wake up people..
Save ohio help USA F Ukraine gas up food up taxes cuts F ukraine save USA
Do Your own tests ,Dont trust the government tests.
This is the result of the corrupt democrat party installing a brain dead president in the white house and choosing cabinet members who are woefully unqualified but check off the required leftist "diversity" categories. Mayor Pete Booty is now killing the American people with his ignorance and stupidity. But these are Trump voters so the democrats don't care.
unreal that our own govt isn’t helping this town . what a disgrace
75,000 farms in Ohio are 90% family owned. Kill Bill just became the biggest farmland owner.
And the country's biggest chemical disaster just happen?? Yeah I'll wait. Keep believing in UFOs
I wouldn't believe the government especially DEHC. We had the same thing happened in Lancaster South Carolina. If my husband did not been an auditor we would have never uncovered The violations from the privately owned water company.
Purposeful environment catastrophic
Biden is in the pocket of globalist….and they do not want to deal with a state pulling out of their financial influence
The way this administration is handling this I wouldn't be surprised if this whole town disappeared overnight every man woman and child just vanished then bulldozers came in basically to bury everything.
And then it be like what Train wreck?
A health clinic?! These toxins are going to affect the residents for decades. Thank God for you Erin
Why were these people Not evacuated,just let them absorb everything first ,then when are at funerals all week long somebody says maybe the water,air is doing it omg how ignorant this was handled
MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS OF ERIN ….
Has anyone noticed, Erin Brockovich looks a lot like Julia Roberts?
