Breaking Baltimore, ship brings down bridge, mass casualties

And here it comes ....... wait for it ........


BIDEN: "It's my intention that the federal government will pay for the entire cost of reconstructing that bridge and I expect the Congress to support my effort."


So why shouldn't the ship owner's insurance pay right away???????? HMMMMMMM ☠️☠️

It's being described as a "Black Swan" event. Not sure why though.

"Black Swan" event: a major event that would be difficult to predict, but, in hindsight, appears inevitable.

However, I would posit that "difficult to predict" only applies if one excludes active intervention.

Thank-you. Personally, I'm amazed we don't have more large-scale events affecting the public. The safety of the aviation industry is unbelievably outstanding, considering all the plane movements and complexity of the aircraft, combined with humans running everything...24/7.

Biden should treat this like it was a Trump ship, and DJT himself was at the helm.

Do you really think they will cave in and pay up straightaway?

Years of litigation would be my guess.

a reply to: xuenchen

Litigation would take years. Maybe even over a decade. When the 35W Bridge collapsed in 2007, Congress unanimously approved the funds for its replacement. Because of how quickly Congress moved, the new bridge was opened within a year.

Bullsh!t 😃

Lara Logan has inside info!!!!!!!

Multiple intel sources: Baltimore bridge collapse was an “absolutely brilliant strategic attack” on US critical infrastructure - most likely cyber - & our intel agencies know it. In information warfare terms, they just divided the US along the Mason Dixon line exactly like the Civil War.

Second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material now down for 4-5 years - which is how long they say it will take to recover. Bridge was built specifically to move hazardous material - fuel, diesel, propane gas, nitrogen, highly flammable materials, chemicals and oversized cargo that cannot fit in the tunnels - that supply chain now crippled.

Make no mistake: this was an extraordinary attack in terms of planning, timing & execution.

What has it got to do with politics WeMustCare?

It's a tragic accident by the looks of things.

Whether or not it could have been preventable is the pertinent issue.

Well that and finding out what happened to the missing people and if they are ok.

Sadly.

I have to agree Andy not everything that happens in life is a conspiracy.
Although I also agree many many things are.

As I pointed out earlier marine ownership can be hard to determine which shelf company holds the insurance.

In the middle of the night?

You would think if indeed this was a planned attack.

They would have timed the event somewhat better to cause maximum casualties.

Just a thought.

a reply to: andy06shake


That assumes that casualties was the intention.

Stop what? Pointing out that insurance companies are soulless and will do everything in their power to avoid paying out claims?

Human casualties were NOT the Target. 😊

🤣cut it out, you're too obvious.

a reply to: xuenchen

I'm sorry? Why should I "stop it"?

You live in the most litigious country in the World.

I'm a litigation lawyer over here and I can tell you that insurance companies ain't known for being soft touches.

Their will be a protracted investigation into what happened before any claim even gets off the ground.

You think rebuilding should wait for all that?

If Biden did nothing, you'd be the first to have a go at him.
