A train derailment in Matteson, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, has prompted evacuations due to a hazmat situation.
According to ABC 7 Chicago, officials were investigating a leaking train car.
Multiple cars derailed from the Canadian National Railway (CNP) train near the 21000 block of Main Street at approximately 10:45 a.m.
It wasn’t immediately clear what substance was leaking from the train car.

ABC 7 Chicago reports:
The village spokesman said a white powdery substance seen leaking from one car was tested by CN, who said it is not hazardous.
Residents within 1 mile south of Main Street and 217th Street, 1 mile west of Main Street and a quarter mile east of Main Street will need to evacuate as a precaution.
The mandatory evacuation order also includes residents living on Main Street from the tracks south to Sauk Trail and residents living on 218th Street, 218th Place and Charles Street.
The village spokesman said residents should “plan for a long-term evacuation” and “take any medication and supplies” they may need.
A CN spokesman said crews were responding to the incident. He said about 10 cars carrying “various substances” derailed.
“Train cars are reportedly leaking chemicals, and hazmat has been called in All residents within a one mile radius have been told to bring necessary supplies for a LONG TERM EVACUATION Please don’t let this be another East Palestine, Ohio,” journalist Nick Sortor wrote.

Per CBS News:
Evacuations are underway after a freight train derailed in Matteson, Illinois on Thursday morning, as crews work to determine if hazardous materials have leaked from the train.
According to Matteson police, 20 railcars of a Canadian National train derailed around 10:30 a.m.
The Village of Matteson confirmed nearby residents are under a mandatory evacuation order.
“Multiple cranes have arrived at the scene of a trail derailment in Matteson. Canadian National is the company and they said 10 railcars carrying ‘various substances’ derailed. A temporary evacuation order for nearby residents was lifted around 1:30PM,” WGN TV News reporter Angelica Sanchez said.

Planes, Trains and Shipping Vessels — What Comes Next?
Plains, Trains and Automobiles was a hilarious movie. Maybe Top 20 comedy of all time, especially since Hollywood has been incapable of writing comedies for about 10+ years now and doesn’t appear able to recover anytime in the foreseeable future.
But Plains, Trains and Shipping Vessel derailments? Not so funny.
Two things happened yesterday that caused me to consider this topic and write this article.
First, someone mentioned to me how it seems like there has been a huge increase of tragic events under the Biden Regime (remember all the train derailments? Now planes falling apart every day. Now capped off by a Shipping Vessel taking out an entire key bridge).
But don’t worry, this guy is on the case and going to fix it all real soon:
Of course we covered all of those on a daily basis, but stepping back to view the forrest from the trees, it was stunning to really think about.
Then they asked me the question: what do you think happens next? Between now and the election. Do you think it gets better or worse?
Neither of us really needed to answer that question because we both knew.
The second thing was I ran across the meme posted above.
Sometimes a picture truly is worth 1,000 words.
I don’t recall much, if any, of this crap happening under Donald Trump’s watch.
Oh we had some mean Tweets, but the world was mostly at piece and under control.
Now?
Well, I thought it might be good to turn to the actual data and take a walk down memory lane.
This is by no means a comprehensive list, that would take far too long, but here is just some of what we’ve endured over the pat 4 years of the Biden Regime.
How much of this must happen before it becomes “not a coincidence”?
I don’t know, but see how far you can stick with me as we walk down memory lane….
Of course probably the most notable and tragic derailment was in Palestine, OH.
I’m sure you all remember this:

Wow, right?
And that was just a SMALL sample, I stopped before it got unreasonably long.
And that was just trains.
I probably don't need to remind you too much about all the airplane incidents recently....planes literally falling apart during takeoff, midflight and during landing.
Here are just a few:

SHOCKING Footage Shows Atlas Air Plane On Fire Mid-Air, Makes Emergency Landing
TERRIFYING: Video Shows Boeing 737 Losing Section Of Plane In The Air
Anyone excited about flying the friendly skies these days?
Me either.
Then of course we have the infamous incident from yesterday which was horrific:

And I saved perhaps the best (worst) for last.
Don't forget about all of these:
STUNNING: Map Shows All Food Processing Plants That Have Burned Down, Blown Up or Been Destroyed Under Biden
Folks, this is truly stunning.
They are trying to destroy our food supply!
As someone who sits in this chair and covers the news each day, I see this firsthand.
Heck, we covered this one just this morning:
I knew there have been a lot of food processing plants and other food supply buildings that have burned down, blown up or otherwise met a catastrophic, untimely end in the last 3 years, but I had no idea just how many until I saw it all together in one place.
I've been here to cover each of these, but it's really jarring when you see it all in one place.

Just like I sincerely doubt Hillary and Bill Clinton have over 100+ friends and close business associates who committed suicide or died under strange circumstances, I do not believe these are all accidents.
No way.
This looks intentional to me.
This looks like an intentional destruction of America from the inside to me.
So now the big question: What can YOU do about it?
And how can you keep your family safe?
