A member of Biden's own administration called Pete Buttigieg's claims about the train derailment in East Palestine 'misinformation.'
Buttigieg was referring to the Department of Transportation withdrawing a proposed rule requiring trains carrying certain dangerous chemicals to use electronically controlled pneumatic brakes.
But on Thursday, National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy took to Twitter to implore the public to “PLEASE STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION” about what caused the train disaster. “For example,” she said, “Some are saying the ECP brake rule, if implemented, would’ve prevented this derailment. FALSE.”
“This means even if the rule had gone into effect, this train wouldn’t have had ECP brakes,” Homendy declared.— Jennifer Homendy In additional tweets, Homendy stressed that “nothing is more important than accuracy at a moment like this,” and that “anyone speculating about what happened, didn’t happen, or should’ve happened is misleading a suffering community.”
