Biden Promises to Visit Hawaii But Still Hasn’t Gone to East Palestine, OH
“I’ve been to too many disaster areas. But I want to go, make sure we have everything they need.”
President Joe Biden has not visited East Palestine, OH, since the chemical spill happened after a train derailed six months ago.
Biden promised to visit 160 days ago. It’s been silence since. Gov. Mike DeWine asked Biden for a Major Disaster Declaration. Again…silence.
East Palestine is still cleaning up.
But Biden and Jill are more than happy to go to Hawaii when the wildfires die down because he’s been to so many disaster areas.
Except East Palestine, OH.
I’m not downplaying the horrible wildfires in Hawaii, but I’m also hoping this isn’t just more hot air blowing out of Biden’s mouth. Hopefully, he visits both:
BIDEN: “My wife Jill and I are going to travel to Hawaii as soon as we can. That’s what I’ve been talking with governor about, I don’t want to get in the way. I’ve been to too many disaster areas. But I want to go, make sure we have everything they need. I want to be sure we don’t disrupt the ongoing recovery efforts. FEMA administrator Criswell, who’s the best we ever had, I think, was on the ground this weekend, I just talked to her, she’s back in the States. I have directed her to streamline the process as quickly as possible to help register survivors for immediate federal assistance without delay. To date, FEMA has approved 5,000 — 50,000 meals, 75 liters — 6,000 liters of water, 500 beds, 10,000 blankets, as well as other shelter supplies for survivors displaced from their homes.”
President Biden says he and First Lady Jill Biden will go to Hawaii “as soon as we can”:

They’ll have to bring in the right equipment if they want him to show up,

make sure we have everything they need
Not that they should have everything they need, but that we should have it. Oy vey.
Also, the choice is obvious: East Palestine isn’t a tourist destination for wealthy donors.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who caught that.
It’s a sketchy slip on a lot of levels:
– As you pointed out, not that they should have everything they need, but that we should have it.
– We can’t accept that they can take care of themselves; we need to have everything they need so that they must get it from us.
It’s happened with several disaster responses over the years: FEMA shows up and the very first thing they do is seize and commandeer all the local supplies and equipment, so that survivors must go through FEMA for assistance.
Because Heaven forbid the community rebuild itself!
….. and because East Palestine doesn’t have a beach!
More likely, East Palestine isn’t a coastal or urban Democrat stronghold; it’s a fly-over area in a fly-over state, so who gives a crap?
Joe just wants to get a photo of himself next to the sign for Dick’s Halfway Inn.
They don’t have parallel parking there.
It’s head-in only.
*rimshot*
I’m here all week! 😀
Don’t quit your day job ,😑
Someone should ask if power lines are part of the climate change causing extreme fires he loves to talk about.
I’m sure they are. Something about humans needing power, blah blah blah, if humans didn’t need power there’d be no power lines, blah blah blah, and power generated by burning fossil fuels, blah blah blah. Climate Change!
Please, no, Kamala might be the one to answer!
What insult isn’t appropriate for this treasonous maggot and his equally odious wife?
“You’re the kind of guy who just shows up and punches in everyday.”
I can understand all the coverage of this issue, as it seems that Biden really doesn’t care, but it seems to me that everything the guy touches turns to crap.
The country would be better off if he were to stay in his basement.
He’s been “in the way” since he took office.
Joe can’t afford to let his SecTrans (transportation or transsexualism?) Pete Buttie-gig (sp?) look bad. After all. the Dems want to be sure they elect the first Sodomite (or is he a catamite? My guess is that with a name like Chasten, his partner is the catamite) POTUS!!!!!
What does Hawaii have that Ohio doesn’t…hmmm. Great beaches which Brandon has sat on for almost 3 weeks. Ice Cream although that baked bean thing is an acquired taste. Oh, I know! A Democrat Governor, 2 Democrat Senators and 2 Democrat Representatives.
So, Joe Biden (AKA “The Big Guy”, AKA Robert L. Peters) will head to Hawaii
