She saw all the bad press she was getting so she wagged the dog and broke the dam

I couldn't decide which of the following to go with, so I chose both.

It was only yesterday that that gov. was teasing her suitability to be Biden's VP choice. Even though she hadn't been vetted yet.

Crazy how fast the water level dropped on Wixom Lake where the dam let loose. #Midland

Trump blew up the dam because he doesn't care about rust people

I'm from the area. This is not good. The Titt river is already nasty from Dow dumping dioxins into it decades ago.

The Titt River? Is that going to be flowing all the way down into the Mons Delta?
Posted on 5/19/20 at 11:25 pm to maizegoblue
I am going to assume there are containment ponds and chemicals tanks at risk here right?

I feel for you and nobody should have to deal with river pollution, but my inner Beavis and Butthead is laughing at Tit River.

Midland is a great town.
Dow and other companies on their site being impacted affects our nations food, pharmaceutical, and defense industries.

There needs to be an investigation into how this was handled. This will cost midland and the government mega bucks.

An analysis was done in 2018 that the Dam would probably not be able to take even 50% of the max pressure of flood waters. Sounds like they were proven right.

Should have opened up the Morganza but God forbid the Michigan politicians’ camps get flooded out.

Too bad nobody can leave the house to do anything about it. You know, governor’s orders and all.

Good thing there are similar industries to help fill in for these guys while they’re out of commission.

This could end up being Chemical Chernobyl.

From her response to the SOTU earlier this year
Any doubt this is OMB fault will be the headlines?

Everyone in this country benefits when we invest in infrastructure. Congressional democrats have presented proposals to keep us moving forward, but President Trump and the Republicans in the Senate are blocking the path.
The choice of Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to give the Democratic response represents the key role that Michigan will play in the presidential election. But Whitmer, who has been in office just over a year, is also an example of how Democrats believe they can win in the Midwest by focusing on kitchen table issues such as infrastructure, clean water and climate change.

When it comes to infrastructure, Monte has tried to do more with a shovel and a pile of dirt than the Republicans in D.C. have with the Oval Office and the U.S. Senate.
