East Palestine, Ohio, right on the border with Pennsylvania.
00:00:06.380
Governors DeWine and Shapiro signed off on the controlled burn,
00:00:11.960
and they're trying to blame everything on Norfolk Southern.
00:00:17.380
We are naming names and we are dropping receipts.
00:00:23.040

00:01:09.720
This is obviously a very serious situation that is still very much unfolding.
00:01:14.820
And I'm here today to provide an update on how this situation affects Pennsylvanians.
00:01:21.100
The vinyl chloride contents of five railcars are currently unstable and could potentially
00:01:28.360
explode, resulting in deadly shrapnel and toxic fumes.
00:01:32.960
As Governor DeWine and officials in Ohio just announced, to alleviate the risk of uncontrollable
00:01:39.880
shrapnel, Norfolk Southern Railroad is planning a controlled release of the vinyl chloride at
00:01:48.800
However, the controlled release of the toxic chemicals also has the potential to be deadly.
00:01:55.360
Following new modeling information conducted this morning and discussed at length between
00:02:01.060
myself, Governor DeWine and our respective teams, I am strongly, strongly encouraging an
00:02:08.660
evacuation in a one mile by two mile area surrounding East Palestine that includes parts of both
00:02:17.380
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily, powered by Turning
00:02:30.200
State of Pennsylvania, announcing essentially that he signed off on this controlled burn after
00:02:39.560
the derailment disaster in East Palestine, Ohio.
00:02:49.480
Now, to understand this, we should do a map break.
00:02:54.700
And I want to explain that East Palestine, Ohio is exactly on the border between Pennsylvania
00:03:03.160
It essentially sits right between Youngstown, Ohio and Pittsburgh.
00:03:07.460
I know Youngstown pretty well because my wife used to live there and she told me many,
00:03:11.840
many stories about Youngstown and she used to live there.
00:03:14.520
One of the first places where she lived after she came into the country, believe it or not.
00:03:19.340
And so East Palestine and something that would affect the air and the water of East Palestine,
00:03:30.480
of course, is going to affect everyone in that area.
00:03:37.480
East Palestine, that part of Eastern Ohio and that part of Western Pennsylvania.
00:03:42.900
So you heard him there pretending to puff his chest up, act like he's a tough guy, the man
00:03:52.480
You hear the same type of technocratic babble from people like Barack Obama, like Pete
00:04:02.360
Biden didn't used to do it, but he does it now a lot.
00:04:04.320
Conservatives do it as well, but a lot with the neoliberals where one of the easiest ways
0.97
00:04:07.860
to tell them, Hillary Clinton does it now as well, of course, where they pretend that
00:04:12.260
because they know the details of some process so well and so intently that they act as if
00:04:24.400
And if that is the same thing as making decisive action and judging the importance of their
00:04:34.380
Well, it turns out that Josh Shapiro, governor, didn't actually care about the people of Western
00:04:43.260
Pennsylvania, the same way that it feels like Governor DeWine didn't care about the people
00:04:49.480
And Governor Shapiro, believe it or not, he's now sent a new letter blasting a three page
00:04:57.180
Blasting Buttigieg, blasting the train company, blaming them, blaming them.
00:05:03.240
And to be sure, there's a lot of blame for them.
00:05:05.440
But he's saying this had a significant impact on the residents.
00:05:11.380
The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection was not immediately contacted.
00:05:15.520
The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency didn't, you know, was not immediately contacted.
00:05:33.380
You gave inaccurate information about the impact of a controlled release.
00:05:54.100
You were an idiot then and you're an idiot now.
1.00
00:06:00.200
There is a person who was supposed to take command in a situation like this.
1.00
00:06:04.460
There is a person who's supposed to take charge and actually stand up for the people that are affected by this.
00:06:13.380
Because all you care about is running for president.
00:06:22.160
All you've cared about is running for your next office.
00:06:25.420
And I said it last year and I'm going to say it again.
00:06:31.760
And you certainly don't care about the people of Western Pennsylvania.
00:06:36.160
Because you know they're never going to vote for you.
00:07:22.200
But the other sound you're hearing is the derailment of your entire career.
00:07:29.100
Because ladies and gentlemen, Josh Shapiro signed off on the worst disaster to hit Pennsylvania
00:07:40.280
And we are going to make sure that no one ever forgets.
00:07:47.160

00:08:35.060
Last week, in the immediate aftermath of the incursion by China's high-altitude balloon,
00:08:43.040
our military, through the North American Aerospace Defense Command, so-called NORAD,
00:08:49.480
closely scrutinized our airspace, including enhancing our radar to pick up more slow-moving
00:09:00.640
In doing so, they tracked three unidentified objects, one in Alaska, Canada, and over Lake
00:09:10.100
They acted in accordance with established parameters for determining how to deal with
00:09:18.240
At their recommendation, I gave the order to take down these three objects due to hazards
00:09:24.100
to civilian commercial air traffic and because we could not rule out the surveillance risk of
00:09:31.360
We acted in consultation with the Canadian government.
00:09:34.980
I spoke personally with Prime Minister Trudeau and Cam from Canada on Saturday.
00:09:40.560
And just as critically, we acted out of an abundance of caution and an opportunity that
00:09:49.540
Our military and the Canadian military are seeking to recover the debris so we can learn more
00:09:57.080
Our intelligence community is still assessing all three incidences.
00:10:00.740
They're reporting to me daily and will continue their urgent efforts to do so, and I will communicate
00:10:07.340
We don't yet know exactly what these three objects were, but nothing right now suggests they were
00:10:13.580
related to China's spy balloon program or that they were surveillance vehicles from any other country.
00:10:19.640
You may remember President Biden pretending that he was fighting the aliens for about a week
00:10:26.100
after he was cucked in 4K by the Chinese Communist Party in a massive spy balloon that flew over
00:10:38.880
I had the shades on, but I assure you, it was me.
00:10:41.220
And, uh, I said on the program that that should, that thing should have been blown out of the
00:10:48.720
The minute it crossed us airspace, I stand by that.
00:10:51.920
And of course he didn't, he waited for it to continue its mission, leave us soil.
00:10:58.960
Then they shot it out after, after it completed its mission and the entire world saw it folks.
00:11:08.440
But then an interesting, how do you say occurrence came up next?
00:11:15.560
What happened next was that suddenly there were UFOs everywhere.
00:11:33.400
We were doing Kevin Costner memes the other day.
00:11:37.440
It turns out that all of these identified objects, which were ordered to be shot down
00:11:47.900
Well, it turns out that they were not UFOs at all.
00:11:51.720
And here on the show, we told you that we told you that the president was lying.
00:11:58.740
There were some people and I'm not going to name names, but there were some people, including
00:12:05.180
those in conservative media that went along with this and fell for Biden's UFO psyop.
00:12:18.320
Well, it turns out now that a small globe trotting balloon declared missing in action by an Illinois
00:12:24.360
based hobbyist club has emerged as a candidate to explain one of the three mystery objects
00:12:30.880
shot down by four heat seeking missiles launched by U S air force fighters since February 10th.
00:12:38.360
This is from aviation week.com and apparently the club, the Northern Illinois bottle cap balloon
00:12:47.460
brigade is not quite pointing figures just yet, but the circumstantial evidence is at least
00:12:54.140
The club's silver coated party style Pico balloon reported its last position on February 10th
00:12:58.580
at 38,910 feet off the West coast of Alaska in a popular forecasting cool.
00:13:02.800
The high split model provided by the national oceanic and atmospheric administration projected
00:13:07.560
a cylindrically shaped object would be floating high over the central part of Yukon territory
00:13:14.180
on February 11th, a cylindrical object floating over Yukon territory on the same day.
00:13:21.960
We might remember that that's the exact same description that was given by the United States
00:13:30.980
Air Force and the F-22s when they shot down a quote, unidentified object.
00:13:40.820
Remember Trudeau and all this Trudeau's tweet, the prime, the prime minister, I've ordered,
00:13:48.540
He said, I've ordered the, the, the fighters to shoot down this unidentified object immediately
00:14:01.020
It was a bunch of high school kids set up a weather balloon to see if they could fly across
00:14:06.620
the planet, across the whole world, circumnavigation, like Magellan.
00:14:15.600
If not for the fact that the U S government needed a scapegoat after they had been cucked
00:14:24.560
by China, the Chinese communist party means emasculated by another man, by the way, for
00:14:30.340
those of you who aren't familiar with the term, they blew up a high school weather balloon
00:14:44.000
I hope it wasn't pointed at East Palestine, Ohio, because we still don't actually know
00:14:59.900
I remember when president Obama invited Ahmed the clock boy to the white house.
00:15:08.500
They ordered the U S air force to shoot down high school weather balloons and pretended
00:15:18.400
Hundreds of thousands of dollars, millions of dollars of equipment.
00:15:22.020
If they're willing to lie about that, what else are they lying about?
00:15:27.620
You know, a lot of people complain about the state of our country and the way woke corporations
00:15:32.640
treat us and their employees, but it's not enough to complain.
00:15:35.700
We need to change the way the marketplace works.
00:15:37.660
And that starts with you and where you spend your money in less than a year.
00:15:40.940
Public square has grown to be the largest patriotic platform of freedom loving businesses
00:15:46.800
Whether you want to support a restaurant that only buys from local farms, a coffee shop
00:15:50.240
that took a stand against COVID mandates, or a bank that would never cancel you for your
00:15:56.260
There's also an interactive sensor-free community group where you can connect with other local
00:16:09.300
You can also list your business for free so your local community can support you.
00:16:12.880
Look, we can't always change the word, but we absolutely can vote without.
00:16:23.680
U.S. Democratic Senator John Fetterman checked himself into a hospital on Thursday seeking
00:16:31.420
That's according to a statement by his office that said the 53-year-old Pennsylvania lawmaker
00:16:35.980
who flipped a Republican-held seat in last November's elections just six months after suffering
00:16:40.800
a stroke was at Walter Reed Medical Center after the attending physician for Congress evaluated
00:16:45.920
him earlier this week and recommended inpatient care.
00:16:49.420
Fetterman's chief of staff wrote, quote, while John has experienced depression off and on
00:16:53.880
throughout his life, it only became severe in recent weeks, adding, quote, after examining
00:16:58.860
John, the doctors at Walter Reed told us that John is getting the care he needs and will
00:17:07.480
What is there really to say about Senator John Fetterman?
00:17:20.440
It says a lot about where we are as a country that here's a guy who had clear medical issues.
00:17:32.820
He said, he said, I think Fetterman ran because he thought he was doing something good for the
00:17:39.000
country and he pushed himself through it rather than backing out.
00:17:42.880
Of course, now Fetterman has put himself into Walter Reed because apparently he now has doubts
00:17:55.500
and depression over the fact that he realizes deep down that he should have dropped out when
00:18:04.080
Remember, he had a stroke before the primary in 2022.
00:18:08.600
He could have easily dropped out back then and focused on his health, but he didn't.
00:18:17.280
And the thing is, we're seeing the reports on him.
00:18:34.140
Same way we feel terrible for the news from Bruce Willis that dropped yesterday.
00:18:49.760
And cognitively, Bruce Willis is not going to be there much longer.
00:18:59.640
Well, you can say you have compassion for the man, and we do, certainly.
00:19:05.700
He also pledged to represent the people of Pennsylvania in the United States Senate for six years.
00:19:14.400
We just had this massive situation in East Palestine.
00:19:21.300
Our state has no senator there to actually do anything about it.
00:19:43.600
This is why we have laws on the books and regulations on the books for what to do when someone is, and it's called, not fit to serve.
00:19:53.520
And he knows, deep down, that that's what's going on right now.
00:20:12.560
Do the right thing for yourself, for your family, for your health, and for the people of Pennsylvania.
00:20:23.780
Senator Fetterman, the people of Pennsylvania deserve a full-time senator.
00:20:34.760
Not someone who isn't going to be there when there's a massive train derailment.
00:20:40.580
And people are concerned because they're not getting straight answers from their government about controlled burns, about chemicals in the air, about chemicals in the water.
00:20:54.640
What's going to happen to these schools, these houses, these hospitals, these senior citizens out there in western Pennsylvania?
00:21:07.460
All those union workers that you went out to, that you spoke with, that you said you were going to fight for,
00:21:26.320
As the environment is being destroyed by chemical explosions that were signed off by our own governor.
00:22:02.980
What does it say about us as a country that we knew we would be in this situation, yet we let it happen anyway?
00:22:09.180
We've been talking this week about the collapse of complex systems.
00:22:16.420
And I simply have to say, this is another system.
00:22:19.800
Our political system is on the verge of collapse.
00:22:24.000
It's like we're watching the Roman Empire fall.
00:22:47.780
If I were in a situation like that, I would do the exact same.
00:22:51.980
I'd step away from all this stuff and I'd go be with my family.
00:23:02.340
It will happen to all of us one day, one way or the other.
00:23:06.360
And I'm going to say a prayer for you guys today.
00:23:09.800
I'm going to say a prayer for the Fetterman family.
00:23:15.780
But I want to remind you that this weekend, I did announce this on social media, but I
00:23:21.280
want to say it here on the show as well, that we have an incredible Sunday special lined up
00:23:30.120
From the Manhattan Institute is going to be joining us.
00:23:32.280
It's pre-taped at one hour discussion where we get into all of these questions that we've
00:23:40.660
And I think one of the more salient issues that's going on in our society, when we look
00:23:47.100
at South Africa, we see a society that put diversity and equality and inclusion, critical
00:24:01.940
So my question and the title of this special, it's going to drop 10 a.m.
00:24:06.460
Eastern on Twitter and Rumble, and then it's also going to be on Real America's Voice later
00:24:13.980
Is diversity our greatest strength or should we bring back merit, skills-based employment
00:24:26.320
Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore.
