represent January 14, 2016 Share January 14, 2016 (edited) Rachel as always, did a great job covering, her presence I think calmed Matthews down. If Dump doesn't point out at least once tonight that Cruz might not be "legitimately" eligible to run/be President, then the night will be an utter waste, just wasted, LOL. I'm even more pissed at Cruz making me feel a connection to Dump because he talked shit about New Yorkers and Dump had to defend. Don't talk shit about my former fellow New Yorkers. I was born and raised in that city, that's where my loyalties will always remain no matter where I reside. New York values? WTF? How are you running for President of these United States and then insult the citizens of one of those states? Doesn't sound like he wants to represent the great citizens of New York. Quite frankly, I don't buy he wants to be President of these United States, I actually think he'd like to break up the union which isn't all that much of a stretch since the interloper just gave up his Canadian citizenship what? Fourteen months ago? A candidate for president should have his/ her heart and soul fully in this country, and one example of that is to have been a citizen of this country alone as far as I'm concerned. I mean this interloper has been living in this country for decades yet he just recently gave up his citizenship to his birth country? And has the nerve to talk shit about the natives of New York City? Get the fuck out of here. Deport Nikki Haley? No, deport Cruz, oh I can't stand him.

I really hope that whatever SCOTUS is doing with this case doesn't make it easier for people like McDonnell to get away with such chicanery. It felt strange to watch Rachel toot her own horn about stories that they've followed before the national press, but I noted that she still made a point of crediting local reporters for their work.

Every time I hear about this story I think about the scene in Erin Brockovich where she and her boss are meeting with the PG&E lawyers and one reaches for a glass of water and Erin says "Oh, by the way, we got that water in special for you. It's from (town where PG&E poisoned the water)." 6 Link to comment
AmandaPanda January 16, 2016 Share January 16, 2016 I really appreciate the work Rachel has put into the reporting on the Flint story. I am an elementary school teacher in an urban school and have several students with super high lead levels (around 15). The difficulties they have with learning and regulating emotions is astounding. Thinking of the children in Flint and the problems they are in store for just makes me so angry. I hope someone goes to jail for this. It won't fix what has already been done, but there need to be some sort of consequences. 10 Link to comment

Lillybee January 18, 2016 Share January 18, 2016 Well the Governor said that he would sent in the National Guard to distribute water and filters and he did. He sent in SEVEN guardsmen to distribute water to a city of 100K plus. Link to comment
jjj January 18, 2016 Share January 18, 2016 (edited) They are increasing the National Guard presence (see link), but I agree this is shameful, to start with seven guardsmen. The fact that any help is making its way there is really due in large part to Rachel's focus on this -- it had been in the national news, but she really put the spotlight on the situation. I've been to Flint (before this crisis), and it was already a town in a desperate decline, not of its own making. (See "Roger and Me".) Has Rachel ever had Michael Moore on her show? Now, there would be a voice of unrelenting outrage. http://www.mlive.com/news/flint/index.ssf/2016/01/national_guard_to_double_numbe.html Edited January 18, 2016 by jjj Link to comment
brgjoe January 18, 2016 Share January 18, 2016 First of all, good on Rachel for being on this story for so long. I know other media outlets have been reporting on it, but she was the first (at least the 1st I saw anyway) on TV to bring this to light. People should be going to jail over this. Starting with all those officials who kept saying, "You don't know what you're talking about. The water is completely safe to drink!" I want perp walks for those people. Gov. Snyder should resign at the very least. I don't see how he could have handled this crisis much worse. And I want a thorough investigation on him and his administration in their role(s) leading up to this disaster. Hopefully criminal charges will result here as well. I feel for the people there. I hope they can get the help they need, like yesterday. And that all their medical costs will be covered. I hope the damage done isn't completely irreversible now. 1 Link to comment
M. Darcy January 18, 2016 Share January 18, 2016 I honestly don't know how they people of Flint have been handling it for so long. I had to go without water for one morning on Saturday and almost had a breakdown over it. And, that's the heartbreaking thing about their situation - I had a slight inconvenience one morning because something broke and was fixed by 12 noon. They have had to go for months because a bunch of people made a decision and then ignored the warnings and signs that something was very very wrong and lied about it. And, the guy who was the emergency manager in Flint when that decision was made about the water - apparently, he is still the emergency manager in Flint. I really liked the guy who was on the Friday News dump. 2 Link to comment
bluepiano January 19, 2016 Share January 19, 2016 (edited) Rachel is the only one I've heard report that the cost of treating the water would've been only $100 a day for three months. That's $9,000, a pittance in terms of a state budget, and the Governor and emergency manager didn't even want to spend that. Which makes it all even more appalling. If the Governor or some state commissioner goes to a conference, they probably spend more than money for entertainment. Just think of the billions they will now have to pay out to remedy the situation, and handle the law suits. Edited January 19, 2016 by bluepiano 2 Link to comment

Do not miss the final four minutes of today's show, which show delicious clips of the British Parliament debating whether to ban Trump from their island nation.

She keeps reminding viewers of this point and it is key, it's where her reporting on this city/state began. Absolutely to the point! She was the one around four years ago who raised the alarms about Snyder-appointed emergency city managers and Snyder legislation that allowed for the dissolution of local government years ago, back when Benton Harbor was taken over by an emergency manager who took away public park land to create a private golf course. Now there are luxury homes next to incredible poverty. Flint's current problems are the horrifying culmination of these czar-like insular decisions to overtake local management of towns and cities. It has been reported on subsequently, but Rachel was out there first. Read this article now, with the hindsight of the problems of Flint created by the Snyder administration: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/18/magazine/benton-harbor.html?_r=0 Just saw the town hall, which appeared to be taped earlier today -- good mix of interviews, and ovation for Rachel at the end: "ra-CHEL! ra-CHEL! ra-CHEL!" -- then they cut away, too bad!

I OMG, this is infuriating. I can't even look at Snyder's face anymore. It's one thing to try and shut poor people out, try to provide them with less access to education, professional opportunities etc.. but to literally poison them, fuck with their water supply. This is not even turning your back and pretending/hoping no one will find out because after all it was all in place before I came into office. No, this was actually sitting down and giving the directive to switch the source of the water supply without treating the water, which has poisoned citizens. This is exactly like the like the Tuskegee Experiment... I mean this way past and over the line of Katrina. You can't compare this to Katrina. And this shit is where exactly where the Black Lives Matter movement is coming from, this type of shit right here. If they want they can add poor people to it then yeah...

bluepiano January 28, 2016 Share January 28, 2016 (edited) Michael Moore on Lawrence O'Donnell tonight really nailed it. He said that long before the water was poisoned, Flint and other cities like it had been abandoned by America. One school nurse for the entire school system? A city of 100,000 people without a single grocery store? Rachel said tonight that America will come together and find a solution to this crisis. But sadly, as horrible as this situation is with the water, it's really a symptom of a much larger issue. The fact is that there are two Americas, and the billionaire class that has bought the government is perfectly okay with one of those Americans continuing to slide into the status of a Third World country. The statistics on the number of Americans living below the poverty line, especially women and children, are a disgrace for "the greatest country in the history of the world," as we keep hearing.

Why isn't each household provided with two or more multi-gallon containers which are filled daily by water trucked in from Detroit for household use? The bottled water donations are great but they are an emergency stop-gap and these homes aren't going to be repaired any time soon.

I used to live near Detroit, and I think, that as Michael Moore mentioned, once you get inside the city limits there are few if any supermarkets either. Similar situation with many large, poor urban centers around the country. This is a huge issue, because people have to shop at convenience stores, where there is little to no fresh meat or produce, and prices on household staples are very high. One reason why people eat so much fast food. (Same with chain drug stores. In the Ferguson riots, the one chain drain store in the area, which had only recently opened, was trashed They interviewed people saying how that store was a huge deal to them, because they previously had to travel far to get their prescriptions). Something to think about when politicians (mostly Republicans) talk about privatizing various services. Private business is solely about profit. So what if, for example, mail service is privatized? Does the company running mail service then get to decide that they will only deliver to areas where it's profitable for them? Edited January 28, 2016 by bluepiano 3 Link to comment
