Newark's Water Poisoned with Lead

Mayor Ras J. Baraka wrote a letter to Donald Trump, urging the president to ditch his potential plan to fund his long-sought border wall with emergency funds and instead send some of that money to Newark to replace faulty lead lines that are leaking ‘dangerously high levels of lead’ into the city’s tap water,” The Root reported.

Newark is still in the process of fixing the corrosion control treatment process at the Pequannock plant, which is contributing to the elevated lead levels, said city spokesman Frank Baraff, adding that the city was expecting the levels would still be high during the latest monitoring period”.

It looks that the Flint Water Treatment Plant's failure in treating the water and the subsequent success in drawing Federal Emergency monies is being repeated. 


Newark is one of the oldest American settlements. Originally it was organized as a theocracy of Connecticut Puritans, but that was a long time ago. About 10% of the population is European, the rest is African. Talk about Jews replacing the natives.
