Nuclear Monitoring Stations Fall Silent After Russian Explosion | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
I wonder how china feels about a radioactive cloud floating down their way Lul.
@Mary Rose Kent Uhhh, Clearly that map is showing the cloud over kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan pakistan uzbekistan turkmenistan Tajikistan Ukraine Romania Bulgaria turkey Syria Lebanon Israel Jordan Iraq Iran saudi arabia greece and china… maps?
The cloud will see the smog and go “Fark that, not going in there”.
Arashi Mokuzai
They’ll build a wall. Russia will pay for it.😂😂😂😂
Those downwind probably feel the same way those educated folks downwind and downstream feel about Fukushima, which is still not “fixed”.
Arashi Mokuzai
Yeah, I really shouldn’t post at 3:00 AM.
Do you want a HBO spinoff for Chernobyl…because thats how you get a Chernobyl spinoff
Look into a mirror, why nobody ever mentioned Hiroshima disaster ? Cos US HAD THE RIGHT by Whom ???
Literally happened the day I finished watching. Now to wait 30 years for the cleanup and miniseries.
djteenladonn.info/ysbRXMC05Qco
Trump himself is a Chernobyl spinoff,..
This would have been dominating the news for weeks five years ago. In the era of Trump, no one cares.
BartJ583 That is a shame. This ‘incident’ appears way more important than Tr*mp & his antics…
David Lafleche Read the Mueller Report. That should give you clarity and the truth. Stop making garbage up. You are an embarrassment to this nation…
David Lafleche What nonsense are you talking about? The world has many problems, it seems you are unaware of ‘everything’.
@David Lafleche “keep the world safe from democracy” – obvious Russian
We have our own disaster…in the WhiteHouse.
How convenient to control the news. Where have I seen this before. Let me think……
Don’t say Russia Today.
“Controlling what the people think, that’s our job!” – MSNPC’s Mika Brzezinski, while lamenting Trumps influence.
@Mind Freshener Traitor Trump’s influence on his cult followers is like that of Charles Manson.
If Mika opens their eyes, that’s a social service.
Controlling what people think has been Putin’s obsession since his USSR days.
Soviet communism and Maoist communism control people with an iron fist.
Putin kills those who oppose him.
The internet in Russia is like big brother.
Though police screens everything in Russia.
Ramon Guzman Exactly! The same as Trump admin shutting down scientific research, taking another page from Putin playbook.
I’m assuming that the nuclear monitoring stations that went offline will be correlated with wind direction, as well speed, to see if the problem is worse than is currently being reported!
The serpent left devils legion is the same serpent line who enslaved the black race, genius
@Rockstarr Seven wait what? Russian bot?
A few more Russian experiments and they won’t have a country they can live in. If people knew what happened PUTIN would be hung in the square in Moscow. That’s why they hide it.
Radiation fallout does not respect borders, it is not a Russian problem, it is a Europe, Asia, Mediterranean and eventually a world problem
They have calenders, mugs, and posters with Putins face on it on every street corner. Think they’re gonna hang him? They are taught to adore him.
@D E you’re not wrong, but kind of wrong) You understandably don’t see the whole picture (and neither do I, even though I live in Russia), but the popularity of this government is plummeting. They control the media, so the information about it is not flowing as freely as it could and should. And although the situation for the revolution is not quite right yet, there are enough forces preparing for it.
Wouldn’t it be hilarious (not) if Russia became a democracy and we end up with a totalitarian government?
No Republicans were hurt in the making of this disaster.
😵 Trump Derangement Syndrome 😵
@Mike D – Absolutely, he is deranged!
@Purple Flame Tarot You look like you’ve been up for days crying about Trump😵😵😵
😭😭😭
@Mind Freshener YOU LEAVE MICHELLE OBAMA OUT OF THIS !!!!
Oh. Great. That’s just great. Put nuclear fallout and possible (additional) Russian duplicity on the pile of problems we’re dealing with right now. That’s swell.
And Trump is Hitler
Russia acts like a giant cloud of dangerous radioactive waste is just a fart in an elevator.
They are used to it.
Silent, but Deadly.
A fart in an elevator can cause a lot of problems.
“The Russian government has not been transpare-”
STOP RIGHT THERE. Russia is never, ever transparent about their dealings.
Transvestite “Rachel” has not been transparent about his real gender either, but you don’t see me complaining.
LuckySevenSamson :
Putin: “So, you put the uranium in WHICH END of the missile?”
Lackey: . . . “Umm . . . It seemed like a good idea at the time . . . “
Putin: “That’s it! No more Vodka for those scientists!”
Lackey: “Yeeeah . . . About those scientist . . . “
Putin: “What? Where are they?”
Lackey: “We haven’t finished scraping them off the sea bed, yet . . . “. 😁
@Ash Roskell
Should have listened to me:/ STOP MAKING SILLY WEAPONS.
@Vendicar Kahn
😅

Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find a way to stop having so many nuclear disasters. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by your neighboring countries if you do. 😄
joye ottwell and orange man bad right 👍🏻
djteenladonn.info/vuBYxvGpo
@Derek D Richard’s right though. Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Not the meltdown are the civilian attacks. We’re still the only country to use atomic/nuclear weapons against an opposing nation.
I’m sure Trump will accept whatever Putin tells him!
@Mervyn Stephens ahh….but agolf’s comments are not wasted on the rest of us. And, it is pretty entertaining to see them still trying to blame everything on Hillary. According to their fearful leader, women are insignificant and useless, except Hillary, she’s a super woman! Everything theybelieve is so contradictory!😄
@Mervyn Stephens
Of course it goes straight over the nationalist minority’s heads.
It is scientifically proven that the nationalist minority is born stupid.
But it still has to be said though 😀
@Cat Castaneda
Well written and thank you 😁
To actually be as oblivious and ignorant as the omega males “jesuisravi” and “Rockstarr Seven” apparently are, you have to be very young and very wet behind the ears.
I can’t tell exactly what year their dad’s condom ruptured, but it was sometime in this century, that’s for sure.
@jesuisravi yes Hillary Clinton blew up a Russian Nuclear missile. Do you realize how stupid that sounds? No you are probably a low IQ individual as your President says……..
Russia! Home of slavish slavery, non-truth & nuclear disasters galore!
_slavish slavery_ LOL!
Yet even Russia is currently more of a developed country than America.
@Mace Cee In what way?
So Putin has just nuked his own population and he’s trying to keep it quiet.
While he’s having a nice little extended holiday in France…
He probably told them not to test it if the prevailing wind was blowing in the direction of France.
With the winds aloft, Russia has made the whole upper hemisphere toxic. But that’s ok Fuhashima, another big secret, is still leaking radioactive materials into the ocean. And that affects everyone.
Nuclear everything is just a really bad idea.
No wonder Trump wants control of the media like Putin has.
More plastic surgery. ..
This was an accident.just think, what if we actually blew ourselves up.we are stupid to allow the risk of death by nuclear war, to hang over the heads of our children.besides all the other life on earth.
Especially when it’s in the hands of a madman; here and abroad!
Putin doesn’t care…. I’ll bet he would prefer that if he doesn’t get his way.
Russia and radiation go together like Trump and an std!
Chump #45 is Putin’s dog.
@Mike D
Lucifers flock of Rachel Maggot mindfukked bimbos
@Mike D No, it’s STD, not TDS…In this case it stands for Stupid Trump Disciple.
That is the truest comment here. And they are all true. LOL.
Now is a perfect time for Trump to visit his best friend Putin and investigate the testing sites. We can assure him it’s safe. “Fake news” POTUS 👍🏽
He’ll tell them to sweep the floor.
Absolutely!✌
Make sure chump bone spurs has no gas mask or anti-radiation gear.
Lol. .I second you on this…
Putin killing his own people, with nuclear weapons.NICE! Any oligarchs affected?
Myriam Gapella nah they just loot their countries wealth and live abroad
They will finally get the chance to stay at their trump tower penthouse suites.
I hope so.
Only in Russia do they have monitoring stations that are on when there is no radioactivity to monitor and off when there is radioactivity to monitor.
In mother Russia you no monitor radiation, radiation monitor you.
Check out the monitoring stations here in the USA after Fukushima. Many of them went offline for _some reason_ after the event and have not, as far as I know, been returned to service. Nuclear power industry has a strong grip on governments and taxpayers. The industry supplies fuel for the bombs.
So, trump believes US intel on THIS, but otherwise it’s “fake news” and they are against him? 🤔🙄🖕
