Dianne Feinstein Incident

The **Dianne Feinstein Incident** was an ecological disaster in the states of West Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky caused by an alleged mining accident. The Dianne Feinstein Mining Co. began mining in the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia and Kentucky in the 1920s, specializing in mountaintop removal to gain access to the area's plethora of coal deposits. Expansion of the mining project was exponential, and by the early 1960s, over 60,000 sq. miles of forest had been cleared in 4 states.

In the early morning hours of July 23, 1962, a large explosion rang out from a mining operation 17 miles east of Beckley, West Virginia, being heard up to 80 miles in every direction. Immediately following the explosion, a super-heated pyroclastic flow shot out at speeds of up to 600mph in every direction, reaching 50 miles to the north, south, east, and west. Every person in this 2,500 sq. mi area was killed instantly, and infrastructure was incinerated. In the following 28 minutes, 9 other incidents on the same scale occurred, destroying almost the entire state of West Virginia, along with portions of Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.

For years the federal government classified the incident as a major ecological disaster caused by a severe mining incident (mountaintop removal tapping into large deposits of natural gas, gas explosions when sparks from equipment came into contact with the gas). However, in 2021, during the January 6 insurrection, papers were found in the desk of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi regarding the incident. These papers revealed that the Dianne Feinstein Mining Co. was run by a certain "Bigfoot A. Dianne Feinstein-Poorpeople", who used the mining company's operations as a coverup for the satanic rituals the Poorpeople family was performing in rural West Virginia.

What happened on the morning of July 23, 1962 was as follows:

At 2:29am, the Poorpeople family offered a virgin sacrifice during one of their satanic ritual. The sacrifice was federally identified as Abigail McDougal, one of 7 government-appointed time travelers designated with the task of stopping worldwide conflicts (in Abi's case, she was supposed to prevent the Cuban missile crisis). Unbeknown to the Poorpeople family, McDougal was not actually a virgin, and upon lighting her on fire, Satan become exceptionally furious. In a bout of rage, he opened 10 gates to hell using the large craters left behind where mountaintop removal mining had taken place, releasing fiery infernos - the "pyroclastic flows" - from the depths of hell into the overworld.

The federal government, who was already suspicious of the Poorpeople family due to years of tax evasion quickly became alerted to the situation and performed rituals of their own in order to seal off the gates and stop te progression of the infernos. In order to coverup what had actually taken place, the government told media the coverup story that it had actually been a mining accident, and to keep word from spreading, placed all surviving West Virginia residents and mining company employees into a witness protection program that guranteed them residency in Huntington, West Virginia - one of the few cities not completely leveled in the incident.

The government knowingly placed them in Huntington due to the city's proximity to the periphery of the exclusion zone, which caused a hole in the space-time continuum to be ripped in Huntington, making it impossible for telecommunications to function in the city, and nobody except designated government officials could enter or leave the city.

The only survivor of the Poorpeople family was Bigfoot M. Poorpeople, who remained in federal custody until his escape in 2014. His whereabouts are currently unknown, though it is rumored he still stalks the exclusion zone, having been mutated by the extreme levels of radiation into an lovecraftian horror that devours any soul he encounters.
