For me, this is so instructive. Because Marjorie Taylor Greene is one of the top fundraisers in the Republican party. She’s positioned herself as somebody who’s gonna get small donations closer to the base than say even a senator like JD Vance and this is the only thing that they have in response. So she starts off this thread on what happened in East Palestine like this. The devastating consequences of the toxic trained realm in an explosion in East Palestine, Ohio are only beginning. Deadly chemicals are spreading far and wide through the air, groundwater, and rivers of blah blah blah. I don’t think the blame can be placed on one person or a nefarious cause. I think this is a tragedy that happened because we are a crumbling Nation with many causes as to why we’re crumbling. So she keeps going on, it goes longer and down the thread. But here’s the key part I think. no no. I think this is a good opportunity for Biden to come back out and do us a second bite at the Apple of the infrastructure bill. yeah yeah. I lost the train of thought. but what’s happening yeah but what’s happening in East Palestine is probably just the beginning of more tragic events that are likely to happen to us in our crumbling nation. The rail industry they have been suffering from labor shortages that were exacerbated by COVID shutdowns. especially the freight industry which is a critical piece of our supply chain that delivers Foods Goods chemicals and fossil fuels for us all to survive. With labor shortages cutting the number of rail workers on trains, it creates potentially dangerous conditions for trains and Railways. the disruption in our economy blah blah blah. Well just to be clear. Yeah yeah, she’s blaming laborers for what she ends up doing here. Hold on. Well but first off the labor shorted their little labor shortages if they refuse to hire more people. We just saw this. Yes. We just saw this. This is what the threatened strike was about. Yep. And the threatened strike was about hiring more people so that we can take sick days without the threat of being fired.
