Federal Judge Rules Obama EPA Knew Flint Residents Were NOT Warned About Lead Levels
Here is yet another negative story about Barack Obama’s scandal-plagued administration that is 100% guaranteed to be overlooked by the mainstream media.
The MSM has a narrative to protect and they do it well.
Anyway, remember the whole Flint scandal from not long ago?
Turns out Team Obama was slow to act.
From Daily Caller:
A federal judge ruled Thursday that Flint citizens can move forward with lawsuits targeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s handling of the Michigan city’s lead contamination problems.
The EPA under former President Barack Obama was too slow to intervene in the case, according to U.S. Judge Linda Parker, who ruled that the federal government was not immune from legal action in the case. More than a dozen lawsuits were filed against Michigan and city officials after researchers discovered in 2016 that Flint’s water contained elevated levels of lead in 2014 and 2015.

According to former attorney general Eric Holder, who is still the only cabinet-level member in U.S. history to be held in contempt of Congress, Obama should be ranked high as one of the all-time best presdents. He also thinks President Trump may go down as the “worst” ever.
Democrats say the darndest things, don’t they?
Melber: America.
Holder: A work in progress … um … a great nation.
Melber: Trump?
Holder: He is in danger of being the worst president in the history of the United States.
Melber: Obama?
Holder: History is going to be extremely kind to Barack Obama … He’s going to be a top five.

Really, Eric?
Holder might actually run for president in 2020. But first, Eric wants to do away with the “undemocratic” electoral college.
He tweeted:
A good reform measure to support. Change the Electoral College by having a state’s electoral votes go to the national popular vote winner – not the person who won the state. The candidate who gets the most votes – nationally – is elected. Real democracy.
