A train derailment on February 3rd in East Palestine, Ohio, has turned into a MASSIVE disaster that is being actively covered up by the authorities and the Main Stream Media.
East Palestine, Ohio is undergoing an ecological disaster bc authorities blew up the train derailment cars carrying hazardous chemicals and press are being arrested for trying to tell the story.
Oh but UFO’s!
What is going on?

The media has been attempting to distract Americans with talk of non-existent UFO’s and Chinese Weather Balloons.
WTF is going on?!?!?
I’ve been checking with friends and online—absolutely ZERO coverage in the American mainstream media about the Ohio chemical train derailment.
Attached are photos of the event—and screenshots of CNN and the New York Times websites.#TotalMediaBlackout pic.twitter.com/tJHT5pgFmf

More than 2,000 residents were evacuated due to health concerns over the chemical leak but have since been allowed to return.
While the media has been providing wall-to-wall coverage of flying objects, this is going on: https://t.co/jBWhLaSzaq

Some of the crashed cars were carrying toxic chemicals – vinyl chloride, butyl acrylate, ethylhexyl acrylate, and ethylene glycol monobutyl ether – which were released into the air, surface soils, and surface waters.
Best video I’ve found explaining the chemical aspect of the Ohio train disaster
Extremely toxic liquid vinyl chloride was leaking so authorities planned a “controlled burn” but that created hydrogen chloride acid that clings to water
Basically acid rainhttps://t.co/gIsaKqm114

Some reports are saying that the chemicals have affected towns like North Lima, around ten miles from the train derailment, with residents reporting that their chickens died in the days after the fire.
Other reports are saying that the dangerous vinyl chloride chemicals have contaminated the Ohio River.

A Journalist named Evan Lambert was arrested while trying to cover the incident for his news outlet.
[Truth Comes to Light editor’s note: The twitter link supporting the above statement has since been deleted. Apparently, there is controversy around “fact checking” this arrest. See here.]
This could be one of the largest man-made disasters in decades, and the media is silent on it.
CATASTROPHIC!
10% of the U.S. population, over 30 MILLION PEOPLE, live in the Ohio River Basin!
The Ohio River itself provides drinking water to over 5 MILLION PEOPLE! pic.twitter.com/DE3fNweEro
