SORRY, LIBS: No Way to Blame Trump for Toxic Train Derailment, Washington Post Finds

A new report by The Washington Post has concluded that none of the regulatory changes made during the Trump administration contributed to a train derailment in Ohio which spewed toxic gases into the air, forcing evacuations and causing illnesses to residents and animals living in East Palestine, Ohio.

The review analyzed all possible regulatory changes made during Trump’s presidency and found no connection to the Ohio train derailment. The report’s authors examined a range of possible factors, including changes to rules surrounding the transport of hazardous materials, rail inspections, and crew training.

The train derailment occurred when a Norfolk Southern train carrying toxic substances derailed and caught fire, causing the evacuation of thousands of residents. Many critics on the left had blamed the Trump administration’s regulatory rollbacks for contributing to the incident.

However, The Washington Post’s report found no evidence to support this claim. The report’s authors note that the cause of the derailment was likely due to factors such as track conditions, crew errors, or other mechanical issues unrelated to regulatory changes.

So sorry, liberals. You’ll have to find another boogeyman to blame besides for Trump on this one.

  1. EPA isn’t testing for dioxin, which should be the main health concern. The dioxin plume blew to the tristate area and came down in rain. For more info, I recommend the verivirology Substack of Adam Gaertner, also the planetwavesfm Substack of Eric F Coppolino.

  2. There is considerable research by Drs. Drech and Brech from Yenavelt State University suggesting that taking a double dose of Ivermectin while wearing a tin hat will protect you from train derailment derangment and associated dioxin plumes.
    P.S. There has been a cottage industry promoting unproven dioxin threats for nearly 2 decades and no independent research corroborating these phony claims.

  3. Wow, what a relief. Can’t blame Trump’s deregulation for this train derailment.

    But we can blame the republicans and Trump for not making a 180 degree turn and start supporting increased regulations, higher fines and increased safety audits.

    In fact, the Trump administration did roll back several safety measures for railways, including regular safety audits and an Obama-era rule that required faster brakes on trains carrying flammable materials.

  4. Gadolhadorah, I have asked you more than once not to respond to my comments, they aren’t intended for you, I hope you expose yourself to plenty of dioxin, I sincerely suspect you are paid to smear me and other important comments.

  5. Yosse, IT IS the smell they had north of NYC, and anyone who breathed it or got rained on, even if they didn’t become sick immediately, might have cancer a few years from now. Nothing to joke about. Gadolhadorah, you’re on par with a rodef when you scoff at important comments that otherwise might help to save the lives of some potentially exposed Yiddin. You seriously must work for the government.

  6. It’s quite possible even if you weren’t exposed to the plume or rain from it, you’re in harm’s way if you eat food grown or eat meat or drink milk from animals raised in areas of Pennsylvania or upstate NY that were exposed to the dioxin plume or dioxin rain or that have dust blown onto the land from it. Lots of farms in that area provide produce to the tristate area. Hardly anyone appreciates the gravity of this situation because there has been a concerted coverup. This is really like Chernobyl in gravity. To me, it seems like a deliberate depopulation conspiracy, alongside the vax, 5G, a lot else. Really, it’s a milchamah, and you should not count on an end to it any sooner than only a half billion people remain on Earth.

  7. Sorry, Fox “News”. The Washington Post publishes news even if it may not be what its readers want to hear.

    Is it a surprise that some catastrophes can happen without help from the Dopey Don?

  8. Schmendrick, there is no evidence that dioxin is a serious health hazard to humans. The whole fear of dioxin, which led to the evacuation of an entire town in the 1980s, was nonsense and lies.

    Jackk, why on earth should Republicans make “a 180 degree turn and start supporting increased regulations, higher fines and increased safety audits”? What need is there for them? One of the Trump administration’s greatest achievements was rolling back many burdensome regulations whose cost exceeded their likely benefit. That is a good thing. These regulations are what is choking our economy and creating poverty, which is the greatest killer of all.

    Chuck Schumer’s claim that “the people of East Palestine now know that analysis was wrong and that they’re suffering the consequences” is a pure LIE. The rule would not have prevented this accident, and had it gone into effect it would have killed far more people than it could possibly have saved.

  9. This is the republican pro-life party.

    There is a major accident that has caused devastation for the people of East Palestine and they don’t want to do anything to prevent it in the future.

    Response is “let’s revoke more regulations so that these disasters can continue killing Americans. “

  10. Milhouse, I honestly wish you were correct. Whoever is alive and has overcome their cognitive dissonance a number of years from now unfortunately will see I was correct.

  11. Everyone should note the accounts that are dismissive of dioxin. They likely are the spooks of this site. Same with the accounts dismissive of the claim that the regime in Yisroel incited the wave of terrorism or bunt down the Satmar beis midrash in Yerushalaim. Same with respect to the accounts dismissive of claims the vax kills. The spooks try to discredit anyone who publicizes the conspiracies of the deep state.
