DOJ ends water treatment in Alabama

[Bn2f]

We know you hate transsexuals. The other guy is a noob.

I said I’m relaxing, observing.
You’re free to take advantage to say whatever.

The part where they race bait it.

It’s an “environmental justice” case based on the fact that sewage disposal problems were ignored because the communities are majority black. The racial composition of the place is central to the legal case. Obviously referring to that isn’t “race baiting”, it’s just a fact that you don’t like.

All MAGA sheep have is pretense.

 

[Bn2f]

The DOJ has ended a water treatment project in a majority black county in Alabama. They claim it's about fairness and the colour of most of the residents was not a factor.

I wish they'd be honest racist and stop with the whitewashing.

Reminded me of Alabama doing this as well. But, hey, it’s not racism.

What Effect Will Shuttering Alabama DMV Offices Have on Black Voters?​

Jim Crow 2.0 in action.



People "forget" that Jim Crow 1.0 was ALSO designed by racists, and ALSO involved a layered set of obstacles working in unholy concert to suppress voting.



We. Told. Them. So.

Great analogy with Jim Crow!
Once the federal government (DOJ) wipes its hands clean then the state of Alabama will resort to doing nothing. At best, a cholera outbreak affecting ALL in the state may force action.

If it were a predominately white co., this wouldn't even be a story.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- The U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday that it is ending a settlement agreement regarding wastewater problems in a rural Alabama county where most residents are Black, closing an environmental justice probe launched by the Biden administration.

Trump just wants to undo everything Biden did.

Because its sewage treatment problem would not have been ignored, which is the entire point of the legal case.

People with rocks in their heads are weird.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

They led with black county. That became the focus of the piece.

So if they lead with minority white county would that be racist?

Did I say it was racist? I believe I said race baiting. We wouldn't even be talking about it.

ABC with the obvious race baiting spun news story.

Pretty much.

 

[Politruk]

This doesn't have anything to do with fluoridation, does It?

ABC with the obvious race baiting spun news story.

Here's a quote from the story. I especially like the part about "fining people with inadequate home systems." Instead of fixing the infrastructure, the (white) authorities were fining their (black) constituents because they were too poor to fix their septic systems!

The Justice Department in 2023 said its probe found Alabama engaged in a pattern of inaction and neglect regarding the risks of raw sewage for county residents. The Alabama Department of Public Health agreed to take several steps as part of the settlement, including not fining people with inadequate home systems, creating a comprehensive plan for the region and other steps.

The agreement was the result of the Justice Department's first environmental justice investigation under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

U.S. Rep. Terri Sewell, a Democrat whose district includes the county, criticized the decision to end the agreement.

“It was about addressing a public health crisis that has forced generations of children and families to endure the health hazards of living in proximity to raw sewage, as the DOJ itself documented," Sewell said.

Rock-Head is diligently ignoring this:

Before the Civil Rights movement, a typical Southern town had a white side and a black side. Since most blacks could not vote, the black side had no voice in local government and tended to be underserved by such things as clean water supplies, sewers, paved streets and good schools. And if law enforcement ever showed up on the black side, it was to investigate some crime against a white person.

Apparently some people are nostalgic for those times.

Trump spent time on several of his campaign events whining about hotel showers. Now he's taken time out of his busy schedule crashing the economy and golfing, to sign an EO to improve the water flow when he has his hair washed. Important things matter.

You can bet that if Mar a Stinko needed a water treatment works, it would have an emergency EO not an ordinary one.

Most of what "Biden" allegedly did was illegal to begin with.

You can't name one thing.

And "allegedly" and scare-quotes don't apply -- no one was ever pulling Biden's strings.

I read the other day that Mexican sewage flowing into US waters near San Diego, California, was making the Navy Seals training in those waters sick. Navy Seals are overwhelmingly white. Will there be any hearings or DOJ action in that matter?

Saint_Ann Syndrome rears it’s ugly battered head…again…



Meanwhile:

The Drumpf administration’s move was ACTUAL “race baiting” AND racist. (The news media just reported on it.)



Hope that ^ helps.

Of course the handwringers could actually do something, you know, like get their asses down their and clean the mess up them selves. Or maybe round up the money it would take to fix shit and contract with some company to do the job. But no, whine, piss, moan, bitch, demand money from others, that's what they do.

Fuck'em. Fuck'em all.

And right on cue, Racist5soul chimes in with a comment designed to deflect / distract from the race baiting AND racist move by the Drumpf administration.

How much longer are people going to put up with this dictator and stand up and get him the fuck out. America is quickly become the most hated nation in the world, let’s just see what the tourism # look like in 3 months and how many jobs that costs
