Southfield Officials Denied a Toxic-Soil Report Existed, But We Found It
All four mountains of dirt on the site in 2021 contained toxins that could cause brain disorders and cancer
By Charlie LeDuff @Charlieleduff
The mayor of Southfield is something unique in the animal kingdom: a weasel who walks on two legs.
I say this because Mayor Ken Siver has presided over the mass poisoning of his city. It’s been going on for a decade and, now cornered, Hizzoner lies about it. He tells his citizens they are safe when they are not.
Siver tells the public that the mountains of poisoned dirt at the old Northland Mall site, which are blowing directly into their homes, are not super-contaminated with heavy metals and volatile compounds when they actually are.
When we broke the story last year, Siver posted an FAQ response on the city’s website. He assured the public the dirt wasn’t toxic, because his “experts” told him it didn’t look or smell contaminated.
As if you can smell PCBs!
It all broke loose after Detroit authorities discovered that the toxic Northland dirt had been illegally transported to Detroit and dumped into demolition holes there. Test results showed the stuff contained toxins at levels too dangerous for human contact.
You’d figure that a mayor hearing something like that would want to get to the bottom of things. Not Siver. When I reached him by telephone, the weasel got squirrely. His voice grew shrill. He peppered me with salty insults.
“You’re a sensationalist. You twist things. You have trouble with the truth,” he whined. “I wouldn’t know about that dirt. I was told it was clean. Where’s your proof?”
The Detroit test results should have been enough. They weren’t for Siver.
I was told about a massive 2021 environmental report prepared ahead of the city’s sale of the 100-acre site to a private developer. Since public funds were involved, the city and the state were required by law to have a copy.
Southfield officials repeatedly denied they’d ever seen the report. The state Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy denied it, too.
But I found it. All 1,011 pages of it. Its contents are shocking. According to the report, there were four mammoth piles at the site in 2021 covering 30 acres and standing 50 feet tall.
These mountains were photographed and dozens of boring samples were taken. The results? All four were super-contaminated, containing PCBs, arsenic, lead, selenium, chromium, barium, and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons at levels that in some cases exceeded human safety thresholds by 500%.
These toxins can enter the body, causing cellular mutations, brain disorders, cancer, and death.
As a condition of the Northland sale, the developer was supposed to dispose of the Franken-soil at a specialized landfill. Instead, Detroit’s inspector general alleges some of it got dumped in the city’s neighborhoods.
Where did the rest of the dirt go? Most of it still sits in Southfield, except when the winds pick up and it blows all over the children playing outside at the neighboring daycare centers.
In fact, the developer is currently excavating one pile where a soccer dome is slated to be built. Instead of taking it to a landfill, crews are dumping that pile on top of two other contaminated piles just a few hundred yards away.
Despite our warnings, no government agency is doing a thing about it. They’ve all been contacted—a veritable alphabet soup of bureaucracy: CDC, EPA, EGLE, MDOT, and the Michigan AG.
The scope of this thing is massive. The price of the cleanup could reach into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Not to mention the inevitable class-action lawsuits.
And it’s all Siver’s fault.
A decade ago, he gave the okay for area contractors to bring the shitty soil from their road, sewer, and utility projects to the site. The shit belonged in a landfill, but Siver and his dimwits figured they’d use it to fill the miles of tunnels underneath the old mall and then stick condominiums on top.
The condos are half-built, the city is out tens of millions of dollars, and the weasel of Southfield is trapped in his own hole.
🚨BREAKING: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is reportedly gearing up to REVOKE the tax-exempt status of nonprofits including George Soros' Open Society Foundations, CAIR, and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
And it could come with massive CIVIL PENALTIES and back taxes.
For decades, these political operations have masqueraded as "charities" while living tax-free on the American dime.
- Open Society pushes open borders, funds radical prosecutors, and bankrolls NGOs that sue America for enforcing immigration law.
- SPLC slanders conservative and Christian groups as "hate groups" to get them deplatformed.
- CAIR has been cited by federal prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history.
And you, the taxpayer, have been subsidizing it.
According to the NY Post, Treasury and IRS are drawing up a sweeping audit under President Trump's 2025 executive order targeting nonprofits operating with a "substantial illegal purpose" — financing political violence and organized radical action.
Bessent's inner circle is drafting the blueprint to strip 501(c)(3) status, which would force them to pay the 21% corporate tax rate like every real business.
If taxed at 21% for 2024 alone:
- Soros network would owe $163.6 MILLION
- SPLC: $354,000
- 17 CAIR chapters: $860,000
- Combined total: ∼$165 MILLION in taxes they dodged
Treasury officials are "like a dog with a bone" on this, sources say. Many of these groups are "on borrowed time."
This was made possible by Trump's memorandum "Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence" that directs the IRS to ensure no tax-exempt entities are financing political violence.
Bessent put it bluntly: "We are examining where tax exempt status has been exploited, where charitable entities have become financial conduits for foreign influence... and have enabled violence."
The ultimate irony? Bessent used to be Soros' own chief investment officer. Now he's the man dismantling the Soros empire.
It's about time.
@catturd2 Trust me. The best is yet to come. Trump set a trap.
He's moving to "Checkmate" the Left once and for all!
There is no escape, @DNC !
Timing is everything!
12/18/2026 to be exact!
Lawyer up!
@ForbiddenLeaksQ Fucking porch monkey!🤬
In the words of Chris Rock.....and I agree....
"I love black people, but I HATE NIGGERS"!
And they're so fucking dumb. Deep down, I think most of them are pissed off that they weren't born white!
Black fatigue, anyone!👀
I said what I said!🤷♂️
@TheSCIF How can anyone square this bullshit? My own County in Michigan has NOTHING to brag about!🤬December 18th can't come soon enough!
Executive Order 13848 is the trap set up by our @POTUS to expose all the election fraud!
Hide and watch, The best is yet to come!👀
@FarmBoyJeff1 EO 13848, was extended in September, 2026 for another year. December 18th will be the day of reckoning! No certified election results until the forensic examination is complete!
As for Michigan? How do you square this?🤔
A lot of Black folks talk about Charlie Kirk like he was Hitler. What he actually told people was to go to church and take care of their kids.
"If that's extreme, this civilization is cooked. We're cooked. It's over. Pack your bags."
