Michigan, Texas officials unaware Ohio contaminated soil, water, taken to their areas: 'We were sandbagged'
Officials from Texas and Michigan say they were unaware that soil and water from the site of the East Palestine, Ohio, freight train derailment was being taken to their areas.
A Norfolk Southern train with 50 rail cars, 10 of which were carrying vinyl chloride, derailed in East Palestine on Feb. 3. The derailment caused hazardous chemicals to spill onto the ground and sent a plume of smoke into the air.
Days after the derailment, officials conducted a controlled release of chemicals to avoid the risk of an explosion. Residents were evacuated before officials conducted the release, but have since been allowed back.
Wastewater and soil from the site of the derailment was taken to hazardous waste companies in both Texas and Michigan, and some officials claim that they didn't get any notice......
Wayne County Executive Warren Evans told FOX 2 that himself and Governor Gretchen Whitmer weren't told about the waste disposal plan either. "It sounds in all intents and purposes that we were sandbagged. I don't know how you do that without contacting local officials so that we can number one, know how to respond to our communities, and two, to give advice about what routes to take and those sort of things,"

OH HELL NO we don't want your toxic soup. Send it to Pete Buttigeg or to Joe Biden. I hear Joe just made some extra space in his garage next to his Corvette.
