Top 9/11 Lawyer: Don't Trust the EPA
PJ Media ^ | FEBRUARY 20, 2023 | Matt Margolis

In the wake of the train derailment that caused a huge environmental disaster in East Palestine, Ohio, Michael Barasch, a top lawyer for issues related to the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, is warning the public not to trust the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA is insisting that the air is safe.

Barasch led the charge to inform hundreds of thousands of people that they were entitled to compensation for the health problems they’d experienced as a result of breathing in poisonous dust from the World Trade Center after the attacks. He says he still has clients who are “are dying every single day from 9/11 toxic dust.”

He’s now warning the community in and around East Palestine to “stay away and don’t believe the EPA.”

...

“They should have just been honest with people then and said, ‘Look, if you don’t have to be downtown in your office, stay away until the fires go out,’” he told Breitbart News. “And that’s what they should have done here.”

“Otherwise we’re going to see in another twenty years exactly what I’m seeing now — with people developing illnesses and dying from post-9/11 toxic air

...

How can anybody with any kind of assurance say the air is safe?” given the amounts of toxic chemicals that were burnt into the air or have ended up contaminating local water sources.

They’ve lost their credibility

...

The Obama EPA also had a number of scandals, most notably the Gold King Mine spill in Colorado, which the EPA caused.

They are hiding the dioxins from torching the PVC to prevent a Bhopal sized explosion that would level the town. Think Agent Orange.

And INTEL has plans for plant in Ohio that uses millions of gallons of non-potable water a day.

If it’s known by an acronym - and particularly if it’s a 3 letter acronym - they ain’t the good guys.

EPA is a good agency. Problem is that the people in charge often don’t know what they’re doing. Many are just politicians.

This topic was posted 02/20/2023, thanks george76.
Biden's responsibility? Accountability? Media interest in his eff-ups? Close to zero.
Obama's eff-up against the environment got buried by the media faster than the Mob got rid of Hoffa. The rest of the Gold King Mine keyword, sorted:
