The Joe Piscopo Show - Broadcast Feb. 28, 2023 - Morano: "We've actually had now the government is finally acknowledging the first related injury in East Palestine Ohio and this is huge progress, Joe. The governor of Ohio, Mike DeWine, is now wearing a boot on his foot because he injured himself on one of his visits to there. DeWine must have tripped one of the cameras when he was trying to spin all the nonsense of his weak response as a governor. So we actually do have a confirmed injury and finally, the government is willing to admit it. But unfortunately, it was only a boot that's on the ankle of our of the governor of Ohio, Mike DeWine.

This whole situation just shows you environmentalism has been hijacked by climate change. If it's not climate, they don't care. The big news I have out of this, for this whole East Palestine derailment is this: In 2020, in Scotland, a fatal train derailment was blamed on climate change. Even Greta herself linked to this story saying that extreme weather caused the railways to be more vulnerable to crashes. See: ‘Climate change!’ What can’t it do?! Flashback 2020: Fatal train derailment in Scotland blamed on ‘climate change’

Well, now we know that if East Palestine had told Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg from day one they thought this was a climate change train derailment, they would have got FEMA money, they would have got visits from Biden, and Mayor Pete would have been there the first day. That's where I would tell you the residents failed. They should have linked this to climate change like other past train derailments. And they could have got instant help because then it would have been seen by the Biden admin as: 'Hey, this is in our agenda.' But an actual chemical spill with actual environmental harm to people and this administration doesn't have time for it." 

Biden Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg on CNN: "Climate is not nonsense. Dealing with climate change is one of the biggest things that people like me and people like him (GOP Sen. Mitch McConnell) will be remembered for after we're gone."

‘Scotland’s transport sec. said the climate crisis is presenting increasing challenges for rail safety’ - Scottish transport secretary, Michael Matheson, said it was reasonable to presume the weather had had an impact on events, adding he hoped investigating authorities would advise whether efforts to address the challenges posed by extreme weather events should be stepped up. “[Network Rail] are well aware of our views about the need to make sure that we are taking forward the right types of mitigations that help to manage a challenge of these types of localised, intense weather events,” he said.

Climate Depot's Morano: "Climate change has hijacked the real environmental movement. Climate concerns now trump concerns over clean air, clean water clean soil. The next time a train derails, we have learned that if you want to get the attention of the Biden administration, you need to claim that the train wreck was a result of 'climate change'. If East Palestine Ohio had blamed the toxic train derailment on 'climate change, Secretary Pete would have been there the same day." 

'Tomi Lahren is Fearless' Show on Fox News' Outkick - Broadcast February 20, 2023 - Morano: "They're collapsing our Free Speech through corporate-government collusion. And they're also now collapsing our medicine. We have anesthesiologists wanting to lower anesthesia because of the carbon footprint of anesthesia. The American Cancer Society is worried about the carbon footprint of cancer care. This is Bonkers!  From A to Z Tomi, this is what's happened just since March 2020. They've gone full insane in the climate agenda because they now realize they don't need democracy."

Vanguard and BlackRock, giant asset management firms known for their commitment to investing in liberal Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) causes, aren’t just the top two shareholders of Norfolk Southern, whose train derailment created an environmental disaster, they’re also among the top shareholders of the parent companies of the broadcast networks that have abandoned coverage of the ongoing toxic threat.

Actor and humanitarian Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina Elba will accompany Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Michael Regan on Saturday to sub-Saharan Africa, theGrio exclusively reports.  The NAACP and Golden Globe award-winning star, Mrs. Elba and Regan will travel to Ghana and Sierra Leone to focus on the issue of climate change and ways to combat its devastating ripple effects around the globe.

Update Trip Cancelled: Editor’s note: "Since the publication of this report, EPA Administrator Micheal Regan has postponed his trip to Africa due to his department’s emergency response to the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, which has caused environmental concerns for its residents."

Climate Depot's Morano: "This aborted Africa trip is more evidence that the climate change issue has hijacked real environmental concerns! The entirety of the environmental movement has been obsessed with 'climate change' to the detriment of real green issues like pollution, clean air, and water. The Biden Admin and Sec. Pete has devoted themselves to wokeness and 'climate change,' and they are letting their real environmental duties, like addressing the toxic train derailment, fall to the wayside. It took Buttigieg 10 days to even talk about the derailment as he instead chose to talk about too many white construction workers. When your goal is climate change and renaming racist roads, real environmental protection gets ignored."

“I’m asking they trust the government. I know that’s hard. We know there’s a lack of trust,” Regan said, according to AP “We’re testing for everything that was on that train.”

“People have been unnerved. They’ve been asked to leave their homes,” he said, adding that if he lived there, he would be willing to move his family back into the area as long as the testing shows it’s safe.
