#1 "we owe it to the people of East Palestine to move it out of the community as quickly as possible,' Shore said."

But we're stopping the work. Doublespeak (the politest word I know for outright lying) at its finest.

#2 The local news reported last night that a North Texas chemical firm had been treating the hazardous stuff from the East Palestine accident.

They're trucking that crud from Ohio to Texas? No treatment facilities closer than that?

#3 I shoulda read the article first - it's there.

But the article notes the EPA is getting in the way, disposal subject to EPA review and approval, just to make sure the evil railroad doesn't make it worse.

Somehow, that doesn't make me feel better.
