We shared a video of the overheating axel on the train that derailed in Palestine, Ohio. And that seems like the culprit. But did you know that derailing trains is a thing with the radical left, especially the enviro-fascists?
Much like the way various faces from the identity politics totem pole perpetrate hate crimes (often) against themselves, these green activists want to cause environmental disasters as a sort of I told you so.
Ace had a very detailed accounting of this practice the other day in a post about Mayor Pete “choo-choo” Buttigieg. Whoever is running the Biden administration had just turned down a request for Federal aid for Palestine, Ohio (FEMA has to rearrange their sock drawer), while Mayor Choo Choo blamed Donald Trump.
Did Palestine vote overwhelmingly for Trump or something? This seems particularly sinister, especially since the buck always stops at Biden. He’s said so himself. And so what if there are over 1000 train derailments a year, and most of them are minor without a toxic chemical spill set on fire by someone who looks nothing like Donald Trump.
What about the Antifa and Green Angst domestic terrorists who get off on train tipping?
Samantha Frances Brooks, 27, and Ellen Brennan Reiche, 23, were arrested Saturday night in Bellingham, located in Whatcom County, which borders Canada, as they allegedly placed “shunts” on Burlington Northern Santa Fe tracks, according to a complaint filed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Western District of Washington Monday.
A shunt is comprised of wire and magnets that are strung across the tracks, mimicking the electrical signal of a train.
The two women were charged in connection to Saturday’s incident, but there have been 41 incidents of shunts placed on the BNSF tracks in Whatcom and Skagit counties since January. Shunts were placed in areas that disrupt the crossing guards where the tracks cross streets, so vehicles could have tried to cross the tracks unaware of the oncoming train, U.S. Attorney Brian T. Moran said.
Ellen Brennan Reiche is a gender warrior and a Democrat Campaign staffer.
Reiche, who identifies as “non-binary” and uses “they/them” pronouns, was the deputy field organizer for Washington State Democrats, according to their now-deleted LinkedIn profile.
They/Them is probably not a Trump Voter (Mayor Choo Choo), so you may need to go back to the narrative drawing board right after you get back from vacation. Maybe see about addressing Antifa coordination and material support of acts of domestic terrorism against US transportation infrastructure.
According to the federal complaint, a posting on the anarchist website Itsgoingdown.com (IGD) described the shunting campaign as being carried out in solidarity with Canadian indigenous tribes seeking to prevent the construction of an oil pipeline in British Columbia.
The post also provided instructions for how to carry out sabotage …
It is worth noting the role played by IGD, which included both publicizing terror attacks, as well as providing clear instructions for those inspired to carry out future attacks. As the Center for Security Policy testified before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Subcommittee on the Constitution, websites like IGD play a crucial role in anarchist and Antifa organizing:
And maybe this is just a suggestion, when caught ‘red-handed, put them in prison for longer than people who happened to wander into the US Capital on January 6 (after Capitol Police let them in) to take a selfie.
One more point. Palestine, Ohio, is 95% white and voted 80% for Donald Trump, and refusing aid might just be political.
Update 1: After Trump announced plans to visit Palestine, Ohio, FEMA backtracked and announced it would provide aid.
Update:2
Literal residents of Palestine were in the movie as extras.
