JUST IN: White House Says Biden Has No Plans to Visit Ohio Derailment Site, Despite Having Plenty of Time to Visit Ukraine

"Under federal law, there are two forms of disaster declarations: an “emergency declaration,” which authorizes up to $5 million in federal aid to the affected community, or a “major disaster declaration,” which “provides a wide range of federal assistance programs for individuals and public infrastructure, including funds for both emergency and permanent work,” according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s website. The President makes the decision to declare an emergency after receiving notice from a state’s governor."


But DeWine has refused to issue a disaster declaration that would send much-needed federal resources to East Palestine and draw attention to the Norfolk Southern accident. He has also failed to ensure that the railroad giant paid the price for two other derailments in his state earlier this year.

Oh, they will, but the disaster they created far exceeds their capacity to mitigate. That's where the US Government comes in.

Notice the tweet stating he was in constant contact with FEMA. FEMA stated that they were not eligible for assistance.
 
What a coward this Usurper is. At least the real duly elected President went there to show support.


What should Biden do in East Palestine?

Republicans will mock it as a Photo-op
He could visit the relatives of those who died……but nobody died
He could visit the sick and injured in the Hospital…..but there are none.

Maybe Biden can do what Trump did
Take them to McDonalds

There were roughly 4,000 derailments during Trump's time in office, how many did he visit?

Give a few more billion to Zelensky.

For some reason you people are really, really eager for the government to come rescue the rail company from paying every last penny they owe for their negligence.

Well, which is it fellas?

Biden should show the fuck up to a disaster site, where US citizens' lives have been shattered by a chemical nightmare.
Biden gives taxpayer money to migrants, to China, to Taiwan, to Ukraine, to probably a hundred different countries, but the POS can't offer financial assistance to East Palestine. Just like a tornado or hurricane, their houses are unlivable, they are contaminated.
Biden should condemn any house/business that wants out away from the chemical contamination and pay to relocate affected residents.

Which Trump did.

.

/——/ democRATs bashed GW Bush for not dropping everything and visiting right after Katrina hit. Did you forget that?

Respect for what? Everyone knows that the federal government will have to pick up the tab after the company and their pet politicians walk away. Afterwards these people will vote for more of the same.

What an a**hole you are! Trump goes for some cheap publicity, and takes no responsability whatever for ending safety regulations that may even have contributed to this accident (or caused others) and you treat that as … genuine.

Biden actually showed real political savvy and commitment, and some personal courage, in going to Kiev — demoralizing Russian soldiers and officers, who have grumbled that Putin won’t even visit Crimea or Russian cities near the Ukraine border.

Tragic as it was, nobody died in the train derailment, but hundreds of thousand have and many more will die in Ukraine, due to Putin’s bloody invasion in February. The risk of a wider European war, or even WWIII, is real as well — and the President and his advisers are correct to give this issue their almost undivided attention at this time.

That doesn’t mean Biden’s policies are always going to be correct in Ukraine, and there certainly seems at present he is paying little attention to finding a peaceful end to the war. But the first requirement for a successful conclusion to the war is for Russia to understand its invasion will not and cannot succeed.

NATO & European “democracies” must hang together to help Ukraine survive, but that does not mean maximalist Ukrainian nationalist demands — or U.S. appetites to seize Crimea, Black Sea oil pipelines and resources, or bring about the collapse of Putin’s Russian Federation through a proxy “endless war” — should be supported.

Ain't no millions of dollars in shady kickbacks for "The Big Guy" by visiting Palestine, Ohio.
 
Maybe because it hasn’t been declared a disaster?
/----/ FACT CHECK
Fact check: Biden did tell a Detroit worker 'I'm not working for you' during gun rights argument.
