@ProPublica The train that derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, was about twice the length *planned* to be approved in Germany.
While no sane human should ever make the idea come true to intentionally set fire to train cars carrying a load of vinyl chloride.

@edbott What was in it for Trump, dollar-wise?

@glennf Thanks for that, Glenn.

Did you also find out, who paid Donald "Quid Pro Quo" Trump how much money for corruptly rolling back railway-safety regulations?

Remember the Trump-mantra: "What was in it for them?"

@Barbramon1 @GottaLaff Phosgene, the gas, that killed ~85,000 soldiers in World War I, & which was reportedly released on the recent East Palestine derailment, *reacts with water to release hydrogen chloride and carbon dioxide*.
Adding to it: Phosgene is insoluble.

About #EastPalestine in #Ohio. #Dioxins are a persistent pollutant They are released for example when burning plastic waste such as #PVC and the criteria is that the more chlorine is present in what is burned, the more dioxins are released
#VinylChloride is a precursor of PVC that when burning forms #HydrogenChloride vapor -boils at 48ºC- #CarbonMonoxide and #CarbonDioxide and very little #Phosgene
If chlorine volatilized in #HydrogenChloride,#Dioxins will be less of a problem

In combustion, #VinylChloride can turn into deadly #phosgene (Carbonyl chloride), one of the main chemical weapons used in World War I. It shows the recklessness of authorities--phosgene’s likely presence from the crucible of the burning train cars has largely been ignored.

@FowlMammaTodd It’s crazy that there have been 500 news stories a day about balloons and UFOs but like 3 for #ohio turning into Bhopal. #phosgene #disaster

OH, THAT WAS SAFE!

*Nearby residents in Ohio and neighboring Pennsylvania were ordered to evacuate when authorities decided on Monday to release and burn chemicals from five tankers filled with vinyl chloride, sending hydrogen chloride and the toxic gas #phosgene into the air*

85% of the 91,000 gas deaths in WWI were a result of phosgene or the related agent, diphosgene (trichloromethane chloroformate).

And another AP update today:
"Officials warned the controlled burn would send phosgene and hydrogen chloride into the air. Phosgene is a highly toxic, colorless gas with a strong odor that can cause vomiting and breathing trouble and was used as a weapon in World War I."

These fucks are done with a press conference ...well we can't be done living here. Monstrous ghouls! We demand answers!

The chemicals being released by this "controlled burn" include #phosgene, a literal #ChemicalWeapon, and HCl, which when dissolved in water is hydrochloric acid. But our prosecutor governor assures us everything is fine.

#Ohio #Pennsylvania #LiteralTrainWreck

We just accept this risk nearby the homes of millions of people every day.

"Release of toxic chemicals from derailed tanker cars begins"

"Officials warned the controlled burn would send #phosgene and hydrogen chloride into the air. Phosgene is a highly toxic gas that can cause vomiting and breathing trouble and was used as a weapon in World War I.

'You need to leave, you just need to leave. This is a matter of life and death,' DeWine said at press conference.
