Today marks 10 years since the start of the Flint Water Crisis. A decade later, kids are still sick, the city is not done replacing lead pipes and families still haven’t seen a cent from settlement funds
Flint residents grapple with water crisis a decade later: ‘If we had the energy left, we’d cry’www.theguardian.com Years after the emergency, the Michigan city is yet to replace all lead pipes and affected families are still awaiting justice

This is an inflammatory take on the situation that makes it sound like nothing significant has improved.

Proposal: make him drink Flint water and eat Fukushima fish while showering with one of the Texas or Carolina H5N1 cows in untreated East Palestine creek water.

learned recently that neighborhoods were rebuilt on Love Canal, right where they were before. some houses that remained merely got renovated +resold. 20,000 tons of chemical waste still buried nearby but "cleanup complete". corruption counts on short memories +shorter attention spans😔

I love how we give billions to foreign powers for weapons but can't do anything about this.

It seems longer than 10 years ago. It’s obscene that the city charges residents for water. I know it isn’t necessarily his responsibility but I can’t help think bozos could easily afford to pay for replacing all of the pipes in Flint.

No one ever sees settlement funds from anything ever. I wish this was more reported.
