Not only does Norfolk Southern need to be sued out of existence, the common folk of East Palestine should consider legal action against certainly the governor, and perhaps the mayor. DeWine obviously is a lying shitbird, but the mayor isn't to be trusted either.

@5:06, speaking to MSNBC just a few days ago, the mayor says that he'd rather not have Biden come visit because of logistical considerations. I thought "OK, that makes sense".

And then the fucker went on Jesse Watters earlier tonight to bitch and moan about Biden visiting Ukraine instead of East Palestine.

I pity the people who will never understand exactly how wronged they've been until it's too late. Their evil leaders are laughing all the way to the bank.

I have been somewhat impressed by Senator Sherrod Brown's anti-corporatism sentiments, but he also sided with Biden when it came to only temporarily appeasing the rail workers' union when it was striking for better working conditions a few months ago.

Oh, and also, I am now accepting guesses as to what, exactly, Trump will be saying when he travels to East Palestine on Wednesday. What form will the grifting take? How can the derailment be tied into election grievances? I can at least assure you that he'll blame Mayor Pete (but so do I, for not pushing to re-instate the regulations Trump repealed).
