We went down to East Palestine for a week to get residents’ side of the story after the Ohio rail disaster. People told us they’re getting sick and their pets are dying, while Norfolk Southern is trying to cover it up. John Russell (@heyjohnrussell) reports.

Great personal video on this event. Relevant content starts at 19:58.
My first question from the start is: What is the name?...WHO?...Is the mental midget that gave the order to light this on fire???!!!!
"Im a hazmat technician. Before I got laid off because of the pandemic, I worked for an Environmental protection company that was on the first call list for Norfolk Southern. I did countless small jobs cleaning up very small spills here and there. Until a train derailment in Juniata County Pennsylvania. Granted, the cars were only carrying concrete powder. But from my experience working a NS derailment I can say with unwavering certainty that NS doesnt care about residents, their own employees, contract workers or anyone. I spent nearly 2 months working that derailment and not once did I see a single NS representitve on site. NS knows how crucial they are to the grand economic infrastructure of the nation and they use that leverage at every single corner. There is nothing they can't evade. Nothing will be done here long term. NS has the money to suppress news, manufacture their own, bat down virtually every lawsuit and they're gooooood at it. They've been doing this an extremely long time"
