- East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway criticized President Joe Biden’s visit to Ukraine and said the unannounced visit “was the biggest slap in the face.”
- “He can send every agency he wants to,” Conaway added, “but I found that out this morning in one of the briefings that he was in Ukraine — giving millions of dollars away to people over there and not to us — and I’m furious.”
- “That tells you right now that he doesn’t care about us,” the mayor said as the small Ohio town continues to deal with the fallout of a train derailment that released toxic chemicals.
