Ohio has been denied aid following the disastrous train derailment which led to the release of hazardous chemicals into the air and surrounding waterways. Thousands of toxins were released during a “controlled burn” which was approved by the governor in an attempt to prevent an explosion.
“Emergency responders that arrived on the scene were ordered to slowly release the vinyl chloride into the air and ignite it. This created a large plume over the sky and prompted state officials to order an evacuation of the surrounding area.”

After vowing to seek accountability for the actions leading up to the derailment, the Biden Administration has left Ohio residents defenseless in the wake of an environmental catastrophe. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has informed Ohio’s State government that it is “not eligible” for financial assistance because the chemical spill did not resemble a “traditional” disaster, such as a hurricane or tornado.
Thousands in the community were forced to evacuate, and reports of livestock, family pets, and freshwater fish deaths continues to skyrocket following the incident. Residents living near the crash site have reported a number of health concerns, including a burning sensation in the eyes, severe headaches, and nausea.
Despite officials confirmation that 3,500 fish were found dead in the surrounding waterways, residents of East Palestine were told that it is safe to return to their homes, after testing the air and water supply quality. Those living in the area however, feel that they are being lied to, and told it is safe to return while obvious warning signs of environmental calamity linger on.
“‘[Ohio’s Governor] has been in daily contact with FEMA to discuss the need for federal support, however FEMA continues to tell Governor DeWine that Ohio is not eligible for assistance at this time,’ DeWine’s office said in a statement earlier in the day. ‘Governor DeWine will continue working with FEMA to determine what assistance can be provided.'”

Individuals on the ground have revealed the hazardous conditions affecting East Palestine and surrounding areas, but state and federal officials have told residents to not believe their own eyes, and ignore the plume of smoke and debris.
Theories have spread throughout social media following the toxic spill, highlighting a string of similar events all occurring in sequence around the country: Ohio train details, spilling toxins and carcinogenic chemicals into waterways, soil, and air. Hazardous materials spill out of a second train derailment in Houston, Texas just days after the Ohio disaster. A third train carrying toxins derailed in Detroit, Michigan. A Florida plastic factory combusted into flames yesterday, releasing harmful chemicals into the air, just days after a major fire erupted at an energy plant near Miami. In another road disaster, a truck carrying harmful materials crashed in Tucson, Arizona, leaving behind a green-yellow smoke which filled the air.
The number of back-to-back incidents have people wondering if it is all coincidence, or whether there may be some larger conspiracy at play.
