This is a distraction from him abandoning East Palestine and telling them he’s not doing shit for them while giving Ukraine another $500 million in weapons.

To the idiots:

@Hey1 posted a link to an article showing that Fox News admits Trump rolled back train regulations.

Conclusion: That means you should blame Trump (not Biden) for the train derailment in Ohio.

To the moron MA1...

1) During former President Barack Obama’s administration, the Department of Transportation enacted a rule requiring high-hazard cargo trains to be equipped with electronically controlled pneumatic brakes by 2023, allowing them to brake faster.

2) The Trump administration repealed this rule, citing government reports that found the cost of requiring these kinds of brakes was not economically justified.

3) Even if this safety rule had still been in effect, it would not have applied to the Norfolk Southern train that derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, because it was not categorized as a high-hazard cargo train.


Conclusion: Hey1's bullshit media source is total crap leftist bullshit and MA1 doesn't need to be telling us what to conclude when Hey1 posts a bullshit article.

@Rabbit

So you’re saying the hazard caused by the derailment was unavoidable?

Try to follow this logic:

- GOP is the party of deregulation.

- Trump repealed an Obama-era law that would have helped prevent these types of derailments.

- This material was clearly highly hazardous and should have been handled differently. It should not have been on a “mixed” train. It should have been on a train that would have had the upgraded brakes.

- You need to stop giving excuses for those who value saving money over ensuring public safety.

So the hazardous material was on the wrong type of train that should have had the upgraded brakes.

Maybe there were two issues here, not one.

The biggest problem we have with the East Palestine train derailment is that both Biden and fudge packer Buttigieg flat out dont give a damn that a significant accident happened and are doing *NOTHING* to help the affected community.

Take your Trump derangement and shove it.

Way to cuck for the democrats MA1 once again!

1) Pneumatic/mechanical breaks have been used for decades. All of the sudden they’re an issue?
Fuck outta here with your liberal deflection/pivoting methods.

2) Biden really flew to Ukraine and completely neglected Ohio. Do you not freaking see what is wrong with this? Have you not seen what the residents of Ohio are going through?

All democrats/libtards do is deflect/pivot, in their eyes BIDEN is incapable of having poor judgment or being an international embarrassment.

Trump needs to start paying rent on the real estate he is taking in all the libtards shallow skulls.

Which is the bigger threat?

A eco disaster that has already happened, or a foreign power with actual strike capabilities to our entire nation?

The Ukraine visit shows commitment and resolve to lead the way against Russian aggression, and keep the battle at Russia’s borders. Should Russia win, their ambitions would grow and local conflict would escalate to engulf most of the planet.

The Russians were notified of Bidens trip beforehand so nothing would happen to him. But WWIII is not just a claim as China now has signaled possible military assistance to Russia. Actually in a sense WWIII has already started. Where are the peacemakers ? This thing could get out of hand.

With Putin in power, I doubt peace will come. He has been itching to get the Soviet empire back together, and he knows he has a few years left in his life to make it happen. It’s do or die time for him, so no going back.

@ rabbit

Republican Governor Mike DeWine initially refused Federal funds to address the derailment, yet you want Biden and Buttigieg to clean up the mess themselves? The EPA is the agency that is dealing with the fallout from the train derailment and the railroad company is taking full responsibility to pay for the cleanup, as they obviously should. To say that they are doing nothing to help the affected community is obviously wrong you gaslighting clown.



@Ego

1) Pneumatic brakes were a requirement instituted by Obama that Trump repealed in 2018. This is a current issue.
2) So Biden’s trip to Ukraine/Poland is insignificant while people are talking about WW? Does Biden need to be at a cleanup site to support the community there?

You gaslighting snowflakes are just a bunch of whining, ignorant cunts.



@flash911

Read my response to @Ego above.



To be on topic:

America's primary enemy is Russia.

Russia is attempting a territorial power grab by invading Ukraine and has plans to expand into other Eastern European countries, destabilizing the entire world.

Ukraine is fighting for its freedom and on behalf of the rest of the world against the primary enemy of democracy.

If Ukraine falls, WW3 will likely happen.

Biden's trip is a show of support that is necessary to send a message to Putin that our support of Ukraine will be unrelenting.


Now some of your treasonous losers would rather we stop funding support of Ukraine in this war; you'd rather repeat Russian talking points. How does anyone reason with ignorant people like you?

"How's that VAX workin out for ya"

@flash911


I've never had issues with the vaccine and boosters, and I've never heard any of the dozens of people who I personally know that are vaccinated have issues.

Conversely, an easy tell that someone is a moron (besides the blank look on their faces when asked a simple question) is that they are unvaccinated.


Based on the complete lack of logic in your posts and your reliance on clearly suspect sources of information, I am not surprised that you're unvaccinated.

It's a great thing to note that the USA citizens need no help.
Biden will go down as the most compassionate president in history.
He helps any country he believes is in need of help.

He will stop what he is doing to help Illegal aliens.

If he misses anything Harris will pick up the slack.

This president and vice president are blessed.

I think one thing the Ukraine war has shown is that Russia has neither the will
Nor the means to restore the old Soviet Union. . In fact it may be somewhat the opposite that NATO is attempting to basically encircle Russia much like the west tried to do in prewar WWII. In fact was the destruction of Nordstream 2 a way to isolate Russia from Germany. ? NATO members have been equipped I believe with missles that are aimed at Russia and could deliver nuclear warheads??
Russia before the war had 2 basic demands 1. That the Ukraine never join NATO and 2. That the Eastern Russian speaking provinces be given automy or independence.
We should not be fooled by the neocons in Washington and the military industrial complex that is behind much of the war effort

Ego…you’re so clever.

Reread what I wrote. It isn’t deflection.

And I hope you’re a supporter of Biden’s actions and positions on Ukraine. His walking in Kiev during the day was a complete embarrassment to Putin. He knows he’s losing the war. Russia will be a lot weaker after this war ends.

Nukes used in Ukraine will likely have significant fallout felt in Russia and Belarus (a country Putin plans to absorb into Russia) since they all share borders.

Putin may be crazy, but his own military and oligarchs (the ones he hasn’t thrown out of windows yet) will take him out before he uses nukes. At least that’s what we are hoping.

Now let me get this timeline correct.

The derailment happened on February 3.

Biden left for Ukraine on February 20

Shit by my inferior right brain calculations, he had more than 2 full weeks to make a quick stop to Ohio.

But hey, the old man puts a lid on his day at noon, so an old man can't take a 45-minute flight from DC to Youngstown, Ohio. Hell he could have gone and come back in the same day.

Keep making excuses for him. He doesn't have the mental or physical stamina to do this job.

how long does it take to implement billions of dollars of upgrades? NOT LOOKING AT ORIGINAL bill or order for it to be done...DID they have an implementation date? that could let you know if it would have had an effect in this crash

think we voted in billions of dollars for various construction projects...they are no where close to even being started...years later


BUT there were two years to RE-implement it...just like trump coulda RE-stocked all the PPE he was blamed for not doing. the shit will NEVER end btw


don't buy houses near train tracks/freeways/utilities/airports....anything else we can think of?
