Newark Church Bishop Calls On NJ Governor To Do More About Water Crisis | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
build one less aircraft carrier and you’ll have more than enough money to fix the plumbing
make america intelligent again
Lol 5 out of the last 7 Democrat mayors have been indicted on criminal charges
A Democratically controlled city…
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 !
New Jersey is well known for having problems with their water.
They have a problem with crooked DEMOCRATS.
This is beyond just a “problem”!!! Why is rich upper Bergen having no issues! Huh?
Flint is still dealing with their water crisis 3 years later.
Dixiecrats don’t care about Blacks…
@Toxic Grunt Trump is going to die in prison. No doubt about it.
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.”
just another reason on why local elections are so important.

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 !
This is about racism and classism. Heartless. These politicians are positively heartless.
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!
@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.
A Democratically controlled city. Keep voting those wolves…
@Dave Schultz The only minority where Trump sees gains is in the willfully ignorant.
They sell reverse osmosis water systems for $60 on Amazon! It will filter lead out of your water!
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.
@ruth depew they are very good systems, use one myself. My water ppm is 18!
@Grim Reefer But, I assume you start with relatively pure water.
Where’s Cory Booker ? oh right too busy running for president
WHY IS THIS EVEN ALLOWED ??????I hope this governor chokes
Wendy Pastore : We can’t assume they’re NOT active or helping?
@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.
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 !!!
S A : America is going all Third World on us, it seems? And, they sorta’ kinda’ voted for it . . . Smh
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…
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
Go huh a tree ya mental patient
bill b Seven short words and you couldn’t even get THAT right….are you too stupid to use spellcheck?
That makes absolutely no sense
Churches doing something other blabbing about Jesus and taking money. Cool to see.
And molesting children. Don’t EVER forget that.
DON’T BLAME JESUS FOR THE CROOKS. CHURCHES SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE PEOPLE. THAT IS WHY THEY ARE THE CHURCH.

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!!!
And? In the EU they call these vile places NO GO ZONES!
Prophet YouTube is useless
@Make Racists Afraid Again, that’s original, amazing, hahahaha!
The US is a 3rd world country

Water is life.
What a lovely man.
One thing about Newark they always stick together, especially in a crisis.
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…
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!
This is sad. This is America. This should not be happening.
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!
Flint crisis ongoing. No end in sight. Newark will share status.
