Apparently he was due to fly to France that same night, but canceled it to enjoy the positivity after his late winner. 12 hours later he’d be buried underneath the rubble…

Surely you could have just googled this? He's a football player from Ghana. He is well known from his time playing in the Premier League.

Edit: downvoting me cause I called out a title is pretty cringe. We should want the title to be clear.

It’s really sad how in all your responses you’ve tried to insult me lol. It just shows the lowest level of arguing and it shows very low intelligence.

State DES could do nothing until EPA and FEMA approved. Federal government does nothing between Thanksgiving and after New Year's. Not to mention working from home.
So the teeny tiny toxic chemicals fire in a landfill that could have been put out by the local volunteer fire dept is now a roaring blaze, displacing families, spreading toxins and unable to be doused.

Tbf it has historically been a both sides thing. Republicans often stand in the way or de-regulate, while Democrats have been notorious for just not doing 'the thing' whenever in power.
If we don't stop trying to shy away from the reality that both parties are ruining this country we'll never be able to fix these core problems.
Change is going to require what's known as a realignment election, which is where a major third party emerges, or the parties ideological alignment is redefined.
