"CNN's Bill Weir describes how the Trump administration gutted train regulations before the East Palestine disaster
“When President Obama tried to make [new brakes] mandatory after a bunch of derailments in 2014 ... the industry, the railroads, the chemical companies, the lobbies fought it hard. They gutted it.”
"But then when President Obama tried to make them mandatory after a bunch of derailments in 2014 – said let's just put them on the cars that have explosive carcinogens, for example – the industry, the railroads, the chemical companies, the lobbies fought it hard. They gutted it.
The final version was that longer high-hazard flammable trains would need brakes by 2023, ironically. But in 2018, the Trump administration, Elaine Chao was the transportation secretary, rolled it back entirely."

"if the derailment was due to sabotage or human intent"
