HHS Secretary Kristi Noem is accusing Maryland’s State Democrat leadership of gross incompetence that led to a catastrophic environmental disaster in the Potomac River. Millions of gallons of sewage water were released into the Potomac because of a faulty pipe.
Noem said, “Thanks to gross mismanagement by Maryland’s Democrat leaders, hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage has reportedly been dumped into the Potomac River—flowing straight through our nation’s capital and endangering millions of people, wildlife, and the entire DC region’s water supply.”
The President has responded by pledging to use Federal resources to attempt to clean up the mess. DC Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) has officially declared a public emergency and requested Federal rescue.

“This is the best way to ensure that we have the full weight of resources that quite frankly the residents deserve,” Deputy Mayor for Public Safety and Justice Lindsey Appiah said in a news conference.

Democrats Create a Sewage Crisis — Then Defund FEMA’s Cleanup – PJ Media
A Trump administration official is accusing Democrat mismanagement of causing the massive sewage pipe break and spill in the Potomac River, and the government workers who have to deal with the spill just got defunded, discourtesy of toilet-brained Democrats.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is a subsidiary agency of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which Democrats just defunded. Leftists’ anti-ICE obsession consumes every other consideration. But FEMA has to deal with a massive sewage spill poisoning the waters of the river that runs through Maryland, Virginia, and D.C., because if there is one thing that is always true of Democrats, it is that they insist on creating catastrophes with their policies straight from the sewer and then making someone else clean up after them.
