4:00 pm
a 94-foot putt well done and a brand new car. how about that? tomorrow on "special report." the next part in our energy series focuses on domestic oil and gasoline production. we look at where the u.s. output is increasing and which locations are producing less. thanks for watching "special report." i'm mike emanuel in washington. "jesse watters primetime" starts right now. hello, jesse. have a great show. >> jesse: hey. thank you have much. ♪ >> jesse: east palestine, ohio has become the home of the forgotten men and women of this country. a community that was pretty much just nuked with 500 tons of chemicals is being forced to live in the middle of a potentially cancer-clustering mushroom cloud. these people were just living normal lives. they didn't want it. they didn't even cause it. this happened because of a rail company who put themselves above a small company in ohio. when they lit their train on fire, after letting it fly off the rails with 500 tons of hazardous chemicals inside of it.
4:01 pm
and then just told these people to deal with it. so, "primetime" sent summer, our producer, out to see how they are dealing with it. >> how has this chemical contamination impacted your life? >> it's been absolutely terrible. it's uprooted me and my six children. >> it's making me move out of my house. >> people don't know if it's safe to drink their water. they are saying yes but then we have fish kills everywhere. >> i have a well so i worry in six months, you know, what could happen to my water. >> what have you noticed about the environment since this has happened? >> it's dirty. there's a lot of dust flying around. >> that creek is dead. there is not a fish in there. there's not a salmon der. there is no frogs. dead snakes. >> i don't know where the birds all went but we don't see any birds in our place? do you feel safe. >> no, i don't. no i don't feel safe i would be a fool to say that i feel safe right now.
4:02 pm
>> my throat has been burning, horrible cough, sneezing. congestion. my eyes have are burned. it's scary, you know? >> i vomit within 10 minutes of being in that home. >> what about the ladies that's going to have babies. is the babies going to be infected? are they going to come out deformed? i went through there sunday and i thought i was going to die. i'm curious if what i sucked in is it going to kill me? i'm scared. i am. i'm freakin' scared. >> what is your message to the people in charge? >> please bring us help. please, you know, yeah, my biggest fear is that this will be a forgotten town. >> we are a small community, yeah. we are country people but we care. we all care. this has been home for people for years. and i mean, we want answers. >> jesse: so what is happening here isn't normal. you would think there would be people rushing to help them but, instead, the mayor of the town is being forced to beg. >> i need help. i'm not ready for this. i wasn't built for this.
4:03 pm
i have the village on my back and i will do whatever it takes, whatever it takes to make this right. i'm not leaving. i'm not going anywhere. this is my town. i'm not going to sell my house. i'm not going to move my kids out of the school. i'm here to stay. and they're going to make it right. and that's it. they screwed up our town. they're going to fix it. if they don't, i'll be the first one calling all you back to do this all over again. >> jesse: good for him. these people got screwed over. now the rail company responsible for all of this, norfolk southern is hiding from them. like cowards. last night, they were a no-show at the local town hall. they skipped out on the only chance these people had at getting some real answers. why? well, norfolk southern says they were scared. >> norfolk southern was a no-show. what is the message to the community on that? what's your reaction? >> well, i'm hoping it doesn't -- this isn't what it's going to be like in the future.
4:04 pm
alan shaw made a commitment to me he is going to stay in our community. i'm going to hold him to it. if he doesn't, then i will have to use the bully pulpit to get results. >> what was the last communication with him. >> i talked to him this afternoon. >> he said we are not showing up. >> they said they didn't feel safe coming here and that's what they felt. >> jesse: so, how about the people of east palestine, aren't they scared? do they feel safe? isn't it scary to wake up one morning and see your kids getting rashes? you don't think these people are wondering why they keep getting hit with migraines? so the slimy rail company and their ceo alan shaw are just worried about themselves. they're not worried about giving answers to a town they just nuked. they never even cared about the little guy in the first place. just two days before the crash, the same derailed train broke down. did that keep shaw from sending his train out with barrels of chemicals? knowing the train was also going to be riding on rickety brakes?
4:05 pm
no. shaw gave the green light for the train to keep riding on. now, after he set fire to 500 tons of spilled chemicals, he won't answer any hard questions. the only time norfolk southern shows their faces in the town is to goose residents into signing legal waivers. they wave the paycheck for a thousand bucks in their face, told them you're welcome. oh, and by the way, you're on your own now. and $1,000 is chump change. we gave illegal aliens a thousand dollars a day in new york. and believe it or not, norfolk southern did the same thing back in 2005. when another one of their trains crashed and spilled chemicals all over a small town in south carolina. norfolk southern showed up with the same waivers and, unfortunately, some of the residents were fooled into signing them. and years later, when they got sick, norfolk southern wouldn't take their calls. these guys have a history of screwing over the little guy. they get away with it because
4:06 pm
they line the pockets of every politician in washington. now, the ceo alan shaw hangs out with mayor pete. look at him. no wonder pete is not getting anywhere near palestine. no wonder pete is down playing this train wreck. >> rail safety is something that has evolved a lot over the years. but there's clearly more that needs to be done because while this horrible situation has gotten particularly high amount of attention, there are roughly 1,000 cases a year of a train derailing. >> jesse: guys, trains fly off the rails all the time. i'm just the secretary of transportation. what do you want me to do about it. norfolk southern. the residents of east palestine too smart to buy into what they are saying. >> how has norfolk southern handled their disaster? >> i think absolutely terrible. i was told to evacuate my home. they told me they were going to
4:07 pm
do an air quality test. never got a call back three times, three different agents from that number said they were coming to do an air quality test. >> i don't think norfolk is owning up to what happened. >> probably about 10 minutes after the evacuation was lifted the first train went through. and so it was just kind of a slap in the face. we felt that all they were worried about was getting the trains running. >> i think they handled it really piss poor really. they are trying to hush, hush people now with all the $1,000 inconvenience. >> they better start getting the tablet out because they are going to be responsible for a lot. i hope that they are held to be responsible for tremendous amount. we don't know what's going to be down the road. >> jesse: so these people are fed up as they should be. not showing up is bad. showing unjust to lie to these people's faces is even worse. that's exactly what the ohio e.p.a. did last night. they showed up to the town hall just to lie to everybody. luckily, "primetime" caught them in the act.
4:08 pm
>> would you drink the water here? >> yes. >> you would? drinking it right now. >> why. >> because it has been tested. we have all the results back today. we tested it for all the potential contaminants. >> you personally did testing. >> we worked with the contractor. the county health department did testing as well. >> why are the fish dying in the creek? >> we're talking about the drinking water. the drinking water is not ground water from a system amile away. >> you are not concerned about the creek water possibly leaking into the ground water? there's no cross contamination. >> we are evaluating. we are getting more data on the streams. we are testing. >> if a child were to go and play in the creek, do you think that would be a harmful issue for them? >> i -- until we have more information what is in the streams, i wouldn't recommend people play in the creek. >> jesse: the water is safe to drink butnot safe to swim in.
4:09 pm
how safe is this water anyway? >> let me just show this to people. see this on camera but watch this. just see that chem pop out of the creek. this is disgusting. >> jesse: so, that's not leaking into the soil? that's not getting into well water? the e.p.a. isn't even testing. the e.p.a. hasn't done a single test. the e.p.a. is letting norfolk southern hire an in-house contractor ringer to do all their testing. the same company who said the gulf of mexico was totally clean after bp dumped oil into it. the same company said the water was fine after katrina triggered an oil spill in 2005. the same company said when a city in tennessee was covered in toxic coal ash in 2008 go outside and inhale the fresh air. and now they are telling the people of east palestine to drink the water. you'll like it, especially if
4:10 pm
you like the taste of vinyl chloride. how is anyone in this town supposed to trust these people when they keep being lied to, when people don't show up to take their questions. when the president of the united states tells a small town engulfed in chem smoke that they don't qualify for fema aid. that's what biden said. east palestine is being treated like they don't matter when is that going to stop? let's bring in east palestine residents. all right, mike, we heard and saw the secretary of transportation say this stuff happens all the time. and now he is in a picture right next to alan shaw, the big rail tycoon. how does that make you feel? >> oh, it makes me feel infuriated. the only way i'm going to feel good about anything that's going on here is when they come down off of their pedestals, come to east palestine, drink the water,
4:11 pm
bring their kids, make baby formula and take their kids, play basketball where i'm at. i'm right here at ground zero practically right now. i don't feel safe. i haven't seen any ground testing as far as my kids can go play basketball outside. my kids can go ride their bicycles, play in puddles, i haven't seen any of it. i want to see that until i see that, i don't believe any of it. >> jesse: lenny, have you seen this video of j.d. vance, the senator stir up the bottom of that creek and watch all those chemicals rise to the surface? >> yes, jesse. i have. that's the same creek that, you know, i can access from my house right on that side of town. i can walk my house through the park, through the walking trail. that trail actually goes down along that trail my three kids, my dog, my wife. we have walked it many times and if you keep going to the end of it, it's my parents at the bottom of that hill. to say to see him there today, you know, digging up those
4:12 pm
chemicals was rather surreal but it's not surreal. it's real. >> jesse: mike, the e.p.a. doesn't even test. they are relying on the company that spilled and then burnt all this stuff all over your town to do the testing. do you trust that? >> you know, i want to trust it. i want to believe that everything is good here. but, until we -- i see -- i want to see the railroad tycoons come down here. they created this mess. they created the problem. you have to be liable for the problem that you created. get down here. apologize to everybody. that would be a good start. it really would be. but, i don't think they have the balls to do it. >> jesse: no, they don't have the balls to show up to the town hall. lenny, are you hearing stories about them making people sign waivers and handing out thousand dollar checks? >> yes. i mean, i have heard the
4:13 pm
stories, you know. i have not tooken -- you know, took any of their money. you know, right now my life, i don't want any of their money. you know, they haven't proven me worthy to take a dime from them. you know, i feel for the people in my community. i have people, i know people, i know people that are hurting. you know, really bad. you know, they are in a way worse situation than i am, personally. and that's why i'm here. you know, these people are struggling tonight to barely sleep. barely eat. their kids are concerned. barely paying their bills. so, you know, i am here for them because that is what a community does. i stand behind everybody in this community. born and raised here, you know. that's the last thing i want to do is see somebody like norfolk come into my community, wipe it out and just turn a blind eye and last night he did that. you know, i emailed him the second day that this happened. i woke up, couldn't sleep. i sent him an email. very passionate. kind of just how i truly felt.
4:14 pm
it wasn't disrespectful. it was honest. from man to man. and he told me back he would promise he would do whatever he could. i believed it. from man to man and last night he had a chance to show up in our community with our people. >> yeah. >> there wasn't one arrest. nobody got walked out. there was tons of police here. >> yes. there was sheriff's department. there was local police department. there was everybody there. there was no -- there was no one going to get hurt. >> i think in this situation. >> no way. >> you know, you got to be -- if you're truly path passionate abt something that you did wrong, then you take every opportunity to show face and make it right. >> absolutely. >> jesse: the entire country has your back. republicans, democrats, it doesn't matter. we're going to make this rail company or this e.p.a. or mayor pete do the right thing by this community. because this cannot happen in the united states of america. and people have to be held to their word and we're going to do that here.
4:15 pm
and we love you guys. and anything you need, let us know. just talk to our producers. >> they need to come here. i don't want to interrupt you, but they need to come here. you know, we're not bad people. we're people. you know. a lot of people here are poor. they don't have a whole lot. it would be so refreshing for a big corporation to finally be held accountable and to finally do the right thing. >> so it doesn't happen again. everywhere. it's not that hard to regulate a couple trains, i would imagine. >> do the right thing. do the right thing. >> the stage is theirs. >> it's all yours. >> jesse: you heard them. lenny, mike, thank you guys for joining us. appreciate it. stay strong. >> thank you, jesse. >> thanks for having us. appreciate you. ♪ >> jesse: wow. well, we just found out who owned one of the balloons that biden popped. it was an 11-year-old. ♪ ♪

4:25 pm
northern illinois balloon brigade. >> why couldn't you just have a pilot do a fly by? be like it's fine. >> jesse: we had to prove to the american people that joe was not going to let anything enter our airspace, not a seagull, not a balloon, nothing. your reaction to how he handled the people's questions there because i mean it's been almost a week. >> so i cannot believe that it's been a week. this is the first time that we have had a shootdown over north america in our country. and you would think that the commander-in-chief would understand that there is a vacuum. when there is a vacuum of information that means something is going to fill it? what was filling it? well even the d.o.d. says we have no idea what it was. >> jesse: aliens. >> dana: could have been. then they had, i think, a lot of nerve to mock anybody who said is it aliens? without providing any information. >> jesse: not aliens, dana. it is the bottle cap balloon brigade. >> dana: now we know that. and it is -- it is, i think -- not only was it $800,000 miss

4:28 pm
about this ongoing investigation. i would refer you to the department of justice. >> the press secretary declined to say what prompted the search but the fourth location tied to biden that federal investigators have now combed through and now the second location that biden's attorneys did not voluntarily disclose. a previous search of the penn biden center only claim to light through media reports. biden and white house lawyers refused to comment on it and they have taken the same posture with university of delaware search. lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have expressed concern that millions in anonymous chinese donations to both schools poured in after biden set up programs there in his name. university of pennsylvania, for its part, said none of the chinese money ever went to the penn biden center. but the university of delaware has not yet made any similar statement. republicans have been very interested in whether there is any nexus there with their probe into hunter biden's business dealings and federal authorities are also looking into that along

the dealer as a mule, as a way to support my drug habit. and they would show me pictures of houses having built back home in honduras with the drug money that they are wiring back home that they make here on strand streets. >> jesse: killing us and building homes with the murder money. >> that is correct. blood money. to the tune of 620 overdose deaths in san francisco last year. most of that was from illicit fentanyl that they do sell in mass quantity. last year in the tender lion neighborhood which is primarily where the dug dealing happens san francisco police department pulled over 70 kilos of illicit fentanyl off the street which is only 5% or 10% of what is actually out there. >> jesse: are the traffickers away of these soft policies in san francisco? do they purposefully come to san francisco because they know they will be treated like babies? >> oh, absolutely. i mean, first of all, all these dealers that are out here that
4:38 pm
are honduran nationals that run documented. they don't live here. they live in oakland. they commute every day on the train across the bay to come to work here because they know that if there is a little bit more lax rules around drug dealing here and san francisco has always kind of had a liberal kind of approach to drugs. but, unfortunately, fentanyl has completely changed the game and now would have two people i do san diego in the city from those drugs that they are selling and we no longer let them just kind of get away with it and have this huge footprint of an organized cartel-fueled drug dealing ring operating in plain sight in our city. >> jesse: why don't you run for city council and we will back you and you can clean the city up. do we have a deal? >> i will think about it. >> jesse: you think about it, tom. thank you so much. >> thank you, sir. >> jesse: well, here it is. we just got joe biden's physical. we're going to read it to you next. ♪
