Biden vows to reopen Baltimore port, rebuild collapsed Key Bridge

[Dadoalex]

No stupid, the government has no money. The money is coming from American taxpayers.

Still can't figure out why I'm paying for a bridge in Baltimore knocked down by a Singapore flagged ship run by a Dutch company.

You can't find your ass with both hands, SIRI instructions, and a map
So figuring stuff out ain't your strong suit.
But then neither is wiping your ass so...

So you have no clue why I'm paying for this bridge either.

Got it.

Got it.

I have many clues.
But none for you.
You will remain clueless.

He also vowed to stop shitting his pants, but forgot about it 3 minutes later.

Ships are "drive by wire" there is no way to intrude on a closed system. The only way for a cyberattack to have disabled the ship would have been for someone to do physical damage to an electronic component. The ship's controls aren't wi-fi or internet accessible.

I love it that we are all experts in navigation now!

I'm not an expert on navigation, but I'm very knowledgeable about electronic communications systems. A "closed" system that isn't connected to the internet CAN'T be hacked from an external source. It's impossible. It would be like hacking the wired connection between a DVD player and a television, or a CD player and an amplifier, or an amplifier and wired speakers.

How do you go by train if there are no tracks?

The train goes through Baltimore Penn Station
When he drove, he took the Key Bridge

Why do Conservatives struggle with English?

November?! November 2026, maybe.

My prediction is that the ribbon cutting will be done by the President elected in 2028.

For Dems / Socialists, the money never ends. $50 Trillion in deficits doesn’t just grow on trees.

Trump added debt faster than any other president. You'd see that if only there wasn't a log stuck in your eye.

I guess you’re clueless as to the national debt added by Biden.

President Biden vowed Tuesday to rebuild Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge after it collapsed into the water when a cargo ship rammed into it, echoing what some Maryland officials said earlier but adding that he expects the federal government to foot the bill.
“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,” Biden said in remarks at the White House. “This is going to take some time, but the people of Baltimore can count on us though to stick with them at every step of the way until the port is reopen and the bridge is rebuilt.”
He said he spoke with Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) on Tuesday morning, as well as Maryland officials including its congressional delegation and two U.S. senators. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg traveled to the Baltimore site.


Commentary:
Thankfully, the bridge collapse occurred at 1:27 AM when there was little traffic on the bridge.
Baltimore harbor is closed for the immediate future. As someone on another thread mentioned, if only there were someone in office who had experience on getting major projects completed sooner than expected.
Actually, if Biden were smart and not so hateful, he’d offer Trump the job of dealing with the mess.
Have no fear. Pete Buttigieg is there now. Lord help us. BTW, I am sure the Big Guy will get his 10% kickback from this rebuild..
Of course we will have to buy the steel and concrete from China since America no longer manufactures these items. Just think of all those DEI jobs for illegal aliens that this accident has created. American citizens need not apply.
Undoubtedly, there is now potentially massive liability issues here regarding the ship, the companies involved.
Joe Biden's handlers might also intend to exploit this incident as a campaign ad, blaming the Republicans in Congress if they knock down his promise to have the taxpayers cough up billions of dollars to rebuild this bridge without any compensation from the negligent parties involved.
The rebuilding of the Francis Scott Key Bridge will be a DEI and minority owned business boondoggle. Parties are already positioning themselves to get their cut of the grift as we speak.
All the Democrat politicians of Baltimore will need favors, graft, pad the payroll, hire their cousins’ steel supplier (just opened! What great timing), set asides, pollution studies, DEI requirements, save the fish, safety training, abatement, bridge color survey, indigenous peoples museum for the bridge and slavery history museum for the bridge. And that’s week number one.

Trump in charge? Isn’t the country already in enough financial trouble?

Great support by our President

Trump would be throwing Paper Towels
