BREAKING: East Palestine, Ohio Chemicals Making Their Way Through Water to East Coast States
While the Super Bowl and unidentified objects continue to dominate the news cycle, something more influential is going on in East Palestine, Ohio.
Last week, a train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio that led to the release of toxic fumes.
The situation has been tampered down by the media and journalists are even getting arrested for reporting on the matter.
“We basically nuked a town with chemicals so we could get a railroad open,” said Sil Caggiano, a hazardous materials specialist.
As public officials try to calm the public, animals are falling sick and dying.
“Out of nowhere, he just started coughing really hard, just shut down, and he had liquid diarrhea and just went very fast,” said resident Taylor Holzer while he explained the mortally ill confition of his foxes.
“Smoke and chemicals from the train, that’s the only thing that can cause it, because it doesn’t just happen out of nowhere,” Holzer said. “The chemicals that we’re being told are safe in the air, that’s definitely not safe for the animals … or people.”
The situation gets even more terrifying however now that we know what the chemicals are doing to the water life.
“Hundreds of dead fish found belly up in Leslie Run stream located in East Palestine, Ohio,” reported the Citizen Free Press. “Youngstown, Ohio is only 30 miles north and Pittsburgh 1 hour south.”

According to Upward News, the dangerous chemicals are making their way as far as West Virginia through the Ohio River.
“Toxic chemicals from the train derailment & explosion in East Palestine have reportedly “contaminated” the Ohio River as far as West Virginia, a water source for over 5 million,” they reported. ”
“The Ohio River is one of the nation’s great natural resources. Over 30 million people, or about ten percent of the U.S. population, live in the Ohio River Basin. With numerous public drinking water intakes and industries, the river provides drinking water to +5,000,000 people.”

As noted by DC Draino on Twitter, the toxic acid rain cloud has a 200 mile radius however people are only being evacuated in a 1 mile radius from the crash site.
“They only evacuated people in a **1 mile** radius of the Ohio train crash site,” he tweeted. “The toxic acid rain cloud has a 200 mile radius (that we know of). Now you know why the media won’t talk about this disaster.”
