There are thousands of communities in the USA with lead levels as high or higher than Flint Michigan at the height of the crisis. And why aren't the Dems all over this? This is a winning issue. Tons of money for bombs or DHS stuff and no money for clean, safe, drinking water. How in the hell??? And the public officials who cover this up should be prosecuted and jailed for child endangerment among other crimes.

This is a crime. This is a cover-up. This is a public health issue. This is why we must have regulations. This is a Democratic issue and yet - where is the outrage? Put aside herr drumpf for two whole GD minutes and concentrate on the issues that are affecting our country right now, that harmed us yesterday and will continue to do so tomorrow.
