    1. arcemedies macdonald , except the Water has been Poisoned since at least 2010 when Booker was Mayor , and the DEMs refuse to Declare an Emergency for Federal Aid !

    1. YOU SO-CALLED PREACHERS NEED TO GET OUT OF POLITICS AND DO YOUR JOB. YOU SHOULD HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR THIS. YOU GET MONEY FROM COMMUNITIES AND HAVE THE NERVE TO RUN AND CRY TO THE GOVERNMENT KNOWING PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE GOVERNMENT!

      Acts 6:1-7 1In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. 2So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. 3Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”

    2. Jed I. Knight , the Water has been Poisoned since at least 2010 when Booker was Mayor , this is on the DEMs who refuse to Declare a Disaster so they can get Federal Aid !

    1. These people keep voting for the same DEMOCRATS that fail them. This is why Trump is winning more minority voters. They have nothing to lose!

    2. @Dave Schultz The Republicans already showed their love in Charlottesville and at the border. Republicans in Washington already turned a swamp into a toxic waste site.

    1. Someone needs to test it first to see if it will take out enough lead to do any good. The city already handed out filters a few months ago that did not do the job.

  1. Where’s Cory Booker ? oh right too busy running for president
    WHY IS THIS EVEN ALLOWED ??????I hope this governor chokes

    1. @Ash Roskell 1 that is stupid. if they were ‘helping” they would be tooting their own horn. 2 it is probably a scam to make some bottled water company owner rich 3 it is a local issue 4 the only who has spoken out loudly is the guy in the white house. where did all the money go? just like Baltimore.

  2. This is SHAMEFUL….. NO meaningful RESPONSE from the incumbent LOCAL, STATE, or FEDERAL GOVERNMENTS which have effectively DESERTED the CITIZENS who voted them in.
    HOW DARE THEY !!!

    1. S A : America is going all Third World on us, it seems? And, they sorta’ kinda’ voted for it . . . Smh

    2. Keep voting Democrat Black folks. Now them Democrats have you on tv begging for water like a slave. But the Democrats are fighting for people at the border who aren’t even Americans. Blacks are being played…

  3. Trump literally HATES ANYONE who opposes him. Trump literally HATES America, or the MAJORITY of it, at the very least. Think about that, America . . . Smh

    1. bill b Seven short words and you couldn’t even get THAT right….are you too stupid to use spellcheck?

    1. DON’T BLAME JESUS FOR THE CROOKS. CHURCHES SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE PEOPLE. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE THE CHURCH.

    2. YOU SO-CALLED PREACHERS NEED TO GET OUT OF POLITICS AND DO YOUR JOB. YOU SHOULD HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR THIS. YOU GET MONEY FROM COMMUNITIES AND HAVE THE NERVE TO RUN AND CRY TO THE GOVERNMENT KNOWING PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE GOVERNMENT!

  4. MSNBC, Hello America!!!
    My perspective is that. ..
    I agree, this is definitely an emergency health care crisis.
    If, the President, Governor, Mayor, City Council members , Congressional representatives
    for any state, are playing politics, slipshod within their “individual paid” leadership responsibilities
    and shady towards helping people/families obtain clean uncontaminated water…
    VOTE THEM OUT, VOTE THEM OUT, VOTE THEM OUT!!!

    1. YOU SO-CALLED PREACHERS NEED TO GET OUT OF POLITICS AND DO YOUR JOB. YOU SHOULD HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR THIS. YOU GET MONEY FROM COMMUNITIES AND HAVE THE NERVE TO RUN AND CRY TO THE GOVERNMENT KNOWING PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE GOVERNMENT!

    1. Yea begging for water like a slave while his political party the Democrats are at the border fighting for people who aren’t even Americans. Where is AOC, Omar, Tlib & that angry Black woman??? Too busy fighting for Muslims & illegal aliens. He’s beautiful alright, beautifully played…

  5. 2 cases? In NJ, that cost 8 dollars, and they have to pick it up. Ridiculous. The Governor needs to call a State of Emergency, and start distributing water!

  6. The Water has been Poisoned since at least 2010 when Booker was Mayor, this is on the DEMs who refuse to Declare a Disaster in Newark!
