  1. For some reason I don't believe them

  2. What crap! Pro deregulation, business friendly Republicans like JD Vance. Lax standards at Boeing
    means plane doors blow off. Maxing out profit by cutting corners at the railroads means trains crash.
    This is what happened at Lac Megantic, Quebec. The short line railroad running on the cheap did not want to pay
    overtime for a train crew to run a train full of crude oil overnight. So they park the train and walk away.
    The train rolls down a hill and crashes into the town and many people died.

  3. Stay classy, humanity. Some of the documentaries that have shown just how NEGLIGENT, "CYA"-prone, and utterly ruthless many of the wealthy high-ups of these companies have been… is friggin' ree-donk-cue-less. I'm not kidding. It's unbelievably embarrassing. Like… HOW ARE YOU PEOPLE CONSIDERED HUMAN BEINGS?!?!

  4. American archaic infrastructure. China are the world's leaders in infrastructure and fast speed rail so maybe blame them for the US being backward. Maybe blame the Japanese for having bullet trains way back in 1964 when The Beatles released their first record album. Last year there were radioactive water leaks in Minnesota and now Philadelphia and Louisiana. Where is Biden's infrastructure funding? Surely DeSantis hasn't used up all the infrastructure funds to send migrants from another state to another state like he did with Florida's Covid funding. In 2022, there were more than 1,000 train derailments in the Divided States.

  5. They won't even admit what chemicals were spilled

  6. Another fail from the biden administration

  7. You realize people live within a mile or less of where all of these chemicals are.produced? That all of our waterways are full of them.

  8. They voted for it. They have to live with it.

  9. Democrat & Biden Utopia….. these people are selfish…. don’t they know Ukraine and the Illegals need more help!

  10. we'll never know the truth of what really happened, its sad

  11. You mean those people the Biden regime ignored while sending our money to Israel, Iran, hamas and Ukraine?

  12. Thanks for the update. Normally they hope everyone forgets after a while even though the damage they caused lasts forever.

  13. That’s republicans for you. Always throwing away money
