Flint

E-mails released by Republican Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder show his office dismissed concerns about the poisonous water in Flint. From the NYT story:

A top aide to Michigan’s governor referred to people raising questions about the quality of Flint’s water as an “anti-everything group.” Other critics were accused of turning complaints about water into a “political football.” And worrisome findings about lead by a concerned pediatrician were dismissed as “data,” in quotes.
