Gov. Snyder declares State of Emergency for Genesee County (Flint Water Crisis)

[Siwsan]

I guess the Justice Department getting involved gave him no option.

FLINT (WJRT) - (01/05/16) - Governor Rick Snyder has declared a state of emergency in Flint.

This comes a day after city and county leaders signed off on an emergency declaration.

This means Snyder has made available all state resources to the response efforts in Flint to deal with the hazardous lead levels in the water.

It authorizes Michigan State Police, Emergency Management and Homeland Security to coordinate with local leaders to help citizens affected

1. Snyder does not care one god damn BIT about any of those Black lives in Flint, or maybe not

even the white ones, but he does care about the real government outside of his fascist state.

Oh god, please indict this prick for something.

3. Flint has several big down sides, where Snyder is concerned

Its large "minority" population, the fact that it is, historically, a very Democratic area and still contains a relatively sizable union population.

I'd love to see his whole administration perp walked out of Lansing.

5. Rachel has been screaming about the fascist state of MI for years.

Removing elected officials and putting in your henchpunks

nobody seems to care

6. People care - but Snyder and his gang are underhanded, lying thugs

He got the 'right to work' legislation passed by locking people out of the Capital bldg and holding a middle of the night vote. He signed an extension on the Film incentive, and then got bullied by the tea party talaban into cutting it out of the budget, losing Michigan a whole lot of jobs and money. All because of the 'Liberal Hollywood' meme garbled by his ilk. He is less a governor than a despot dictator.
