government but whatsapp is never going to be able to kind of provide all of the detailed information you might get in a meeting or in a properly written document setting out various options for ministers to make a decision. there s also a question about whatsapp groups. one of the things we saw earlier was who was in groups mattered because if you re not in whatsapp group and people are having a conversation about an issue that you can contribute to and you re not in that group, it means all the information isn t necessarily taken into account. so, it is a tool and i think it should be used but it s not the only way of doing things. as we were hearing just now, matt hancock s teams at this link is partial and only show some of the conversations, we don t have the record of the meetings or whatever else was taking place. so, again, i don t think there s anything wrong with the use of whatsapp but it can t be and shouldn t ever be the only way that government communicates and decisions a
and as long as this information isn t given to them, full transparency whether you do or don t know something, you leave them in a horrible, vulnerable position to return to an environment that is unsafe. and that is absolutely unacceptable from local, state, and any federal authorities. look, this community wants to believe that the oversight is protecting them, but we re hearing way too many stories how long it could be for cleanup. we don t have all the data yet. don t drink the water. why would they want to live there? at this point i don t think there s faith or trust, jake, in what the government agencies are telling them. you ve been call on the biden administration to be better about communicating with the residents of east palestine, ohio, who as you know feel as they ve been left in the dark.
4th about children having breathing issues, onset of as muattacks, rashes, projectile vomiting, getting evacuation orders, not wearing where to go, to shelter in lace. a lot of confusion, a lot of miscommunication if no communication. here we are ten days out, and now you re just hearing the governor as your reporter just stated, now there s an issue with don t drink the water. this is precisely what s concerning this community because all the information isn t in yet. look, it was a train derailment. ten cars with a hazardous chemical, vinyl chloride, that was set to explode that they put into a controlled burn, and the information isn t all in. so what anussurance are you goi to give this community that it is in fact safe, which has been their concern all along. and now we re hearing drink
do you rule out as it seems some military types have all the way up to the white house that these are not ufos or extra terrestrial objects? i m not ready to go x file on this. much more concerned about the chinese than the martians at this point. all kidding aside, we re not sharing or maybe by decide the white house and the military are not sharing details. but they rule that out which means that they know more than what they re letting on. what do you think? yeah, that makes sense. that s probably a good thing at this point. i know there s a lot of concern ant and a desire to get more information out to the public, to elected officials and the like. a lot of times when the information isn t there, there s a vac you ll that gets filled by conspiracy theories and those
so if it takes a weird corner of a clock unveiling to get people to start paying attention to that stuff, then so be it because i do think we should be paying attention. i agree retiring that we should be paying attention, but it s not a paying attention clock, it s not oh man we got problems clock, it s we re seconds from total annihilation and extent shall eraser on the planet clock. and this information isn t leading to that. the threat from nuclear war is coming entirely from putin and people listening to those people aren t in moscow climate change is real and a problem but the timeline by all the experts who are most passionate about it is very different than like nuclear war tomorrow. it is, and maybe telling everybody that we are seconds from the apocalypse, which is what so much of twitter and social media does already, is part of the problem. because it keeps everybody in a state of panic.
