(TJV) Former President Trump landed in East Palestine to visit the small town which was left in disarray after the Feb 3rd train derailment and it’s toxic aftermath.
Local TV station WKYC broadcasted Trump’s speech in East Palestine. The former president said, “to the people of East Palestine and to the nearby communities of Ohio and Pennsylvania, we have told you loud and clear, ‘you’re not forgotten.'”
More than two weeks after the disaster, the EPA has briefly visited and told residents, the water is safe to drink and everything is fine; meanwhile the internet has exploded with first hand accounts, of wildlife dying, people vomiting blood and household pets dropping dead. The extent of the danger is not known for certain yet, however many feel the incident was buried by the Biden administration.
Speech Begins at around 6 minutes into video
Bereitbart reported:
“President Trump is meeting with the citizens of East Palestine, and he will never forget them and what they are going through. Contrast that with Biden and the federal government, who have failed them from the beginning,” Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung told Breitbart News.
John Rourke, the CEO of Blue Line Moving, which transported the pallets of water to East Palestine, told Breitbart News the company moved 13 pallets of water, which comes to over 14,000 bottles for the small town.
“Joe Biden/Pete Buttigieg stay away! The real President is here taking care of American Citizens. Make sure those Ukrainian pensions are take care of,” Rourke told Breitbart News.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has taken a lot of heat for his slow action in regards to the derailment which took place on Feburary 3rd. Buttigieg held a presser almost 2 weeks later focusing on racial disparities in construction work staffing and barely mentioned Palestine, Ohio.
Trump, took this opportunity to make an appearance to bolster his 2024 run for president; meanwhile writers, scientists, pundits, and members of the “conspiracy”community have speculated that the toxic spillage in Ohio , is near the level of the Chernobyl disaster of 1986, and could have devestating, and cancerous long term effects.
On February 3, a train operated by Norfolk Southern was carrying chemicals — including vinyl chloride, a highly volatile colorless gas — when it derailed, spilling the chemicals, and sparking a fire, which sent thick billowing smoke into the sky.
Cleanup crews ended up igniting five train cars to get rid of toxic chemicals in a controlled environment, which created a menacing plume of thick smoke that resembled a mushroom cloud. Images of the controlled detonation were later circulated on social media, sparking concerns around the nation.
