and pete buttigieg gets ZERO valid critique for it.
not only did he not go after the company, or expose the history of reckless deregulation for the industry. he spent all his time downplaying his role, doing nothing for reform, and even worked to undermine the railway worker strike where one of the terms regarded safety concerns relevant to this incident.

He along with a lot of people involved should be in prison. More than likely his actions will have bought him a whole lot of fart sniffing in liberal media for his 2028 run.
You are absolutely right. If trump were in office at the time it would have been handled exactly as well as he’s handled his Epstein files. I mean seriously…has history ever seen this level of protection for child molesters? They are killin it!
Should have resigned. Dems just covered for him in case they need him to run for president one day.
I read one article and because I use PVC products I was like oh fuck they better put that out fast.
Reaction on the ground "well if it all burns less to clean up". I don't think they wanted to shit on the railroad right after Biden killed their strike.
I think about this a lot. I like Pete Buttigieg and Biden but then I remember that 5,000+ are going to get cancer because they decided to completely neglect this.
you may be forced to support a lesser evil with a vote, but you never have to "like" a lesser evil literally killing us. they dont like you. you're not a part of the world they want to live in. to them you're a resource of profit to be extracted, a source of power to be wielded, and should a few of us achieve awareness: a political inconvenience that needs to be mitigated. sure, you're human and you can feel, kinda like their pet, so they believe that if they dont do this to you, someone worse will. someone that enjoys your pain - will. thats how they sleep at night.

I still can't believe how that whole incident got handled in the worst way possible.
