  1. Car accident at rainbow bridge made world news. EVERYONE reported on it.. why is Kentucky always forgotten? ALOT of corruption going on here…

  2. Yea but but, Trump saved folks lots of money and you know, Rail lines are rarely dangerous and the stuff they haul would never hurt anybody. I mean, it's not like them nasty regulation Trump did away with for the railroad was any good anyways. Checking brakes on trains is for sissys.

  3. I'm glad the "good lord" ain't takin care of me. His people always seem the get the worst of everything.

  4. We don't have any operating train tracks on this island. not to mention tank cars of toxins passing by.

  5. My Grandma was a Hatfield from Ransom, Kentucky. I hope all of the good folks in Kentucky who are affected by this will be ok. Sending Love & Prayers from Flagstaff, Arizona.

  6. $600 billion for Israel and only $700 for the people in Maui that’s Biden!!!

  7. It's almost like rolling regulations back was a bad thing ……

  8. "US-Canada border crash not terror-related, says New York governor"

    – BBC News

  9. Kentuckians should again thank Trump and the Republicans for rolling back laws to weaken rail safety measures and saving monies for railroad companies and their rich owners.

    Rail owners believe it's cheaper to pay for after the accidents than implementing safety procedures. They don't take into account the costs to the emergency agencies, town and cities local costs, nor the costs and danger to the surrounding environment nor danger to citizens.

  10. ANOTHER ALL KNOWN, AND ALL PLANNED TOXIC DERAILMENT FROM BLACKROCK OR VANGUARD, AND THE MASS IS BRAINWASHED, NARCISSITIC, AND SPIRITUALLY DEAD THAT THIS WAR IS SPIRITUAL, AND NOT NATURAL. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

  11. The US never had train derailment until this White House and its cronies !!!

  12. This will keep happening over n over because of don the con chump's deregulation of safty. So now ppl are going to suffer. Biden wants more safty regulations to prevent exactly this type of sh it from occurring. All maga republicultist are domestic terrorists

  13. Im sure Biden and his sorry administration will pay a visit to this town. Sarcasm, he'll be hiding out in his basement. Disgrace

  14. I've been workin on the railroad all the live long day

  15. How many train accidents will be acceptable and exposes on homicidal train corporate leadership continue before regulations are re-applied & enforced. Increased accidents followed Congress' easing standards leaving safety concerns to the profiteers. ProPublica's & other exposes shed indisputable causes & blame on management. When will excess bonus enriched profiteers be prosecuted, including for long-term damage, devalued property, workplace & habitat violations and homicidal acts…?

  16. Election audit set to begin in big areas of ky…..seems fishy

  17. I like True news, thank ❤❤❤

  18. Thank you Buttjuice. However you spell his name.

  19. Terrioism from inside? We keep wondering why this seems so prevalent from years past. Is this a plot to attack our countryside,running our resources? Small towns that have railroads connected to their communities must be weary of these problems.

  20. Just another climate terrorists attack

  21. At this point we need to start privately investigating these issues. The government is going to lie and sweep it under the rug!

  22. Only happening in White areas 🤔

  23. EPA SPOKESMAN : EVERYTHING IS FINE AND NOT TOXIC.

  24. All that infrastructure money blown on Ukraine.
