Federal money to build a new bridge? Wtf isn’t that ships owner’s insurance paying for a new bridge?
Right we give away too much to everyone but hardworking Americans. Key word is hardworking
It's a way for Biden to say how he created new jobs.
Oh they will but that will take time in court. The work on this Bridge needs to start right now. Recovery clean up rebuild asap.
Did the ship strike a bridge part? I dunno. I used to live in South Jersey and know unless the ship did, we Taxpayers gotta eat it. But on the other hand, what about the hundreds of engineer bridge inspectors who are suppsed to signoff safe or not safe. Who's checking THEIR work?
HARBOR PILOT, was most likely on control of vessel at the time.
🙏🏼 MY CONDOLENCES TO THE PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES. 🙏🏼
The fact that they don’t talk about the person driving the boat
What is there to talk about, It was mechanical failure. What do you want to do? Blame the Capt?
Cause they barely got on the ship today. Omg you’re trying to be racist for no reason. The ship is from Singapore. So I wonder what he looks like 🤦🏽
@razor281 it also hit a quay in antwerp Belgium July 11th 2016
He was a Democrat.! 🤔
💀It was literally a mechanical issue. He did all he could. When you lose all the power to steer the boat correctly and precisely you can’t do much . I would love for you to try to steer one those boats when you literally lose all power to everything 💀
Smart Truckers are staying out of the whole area anyway…
Sad true, but life goes on. 🙏
Smart people of ALL walks of life are avoiding Baltimore, and have been for years. It's a scourge on our fine Republic, and it's government is a pox on the body politic...
not many smart people in trucking.
@@theboringchannel2027 guess you don’t need truckers, because you get your food at the grocery store ?😁
@@theboringchannel2027 you must be a trucker then 😂
Why will they have to rebuild with federal money? Shouldn't the ship's insurance company pick up the tab for reconstruction?
Feds sue the insurance company and ships owner and charter company.
Feds lay out the money to get it repaired, while it takes 5 years or so
in court to settle it all.
@@theboringchannel2027 The owners will not be found. The company that owns the ship is registered in a tax haven. The American taxpayer will happily;y foot the bill.
@@amracewayyes but the ship itself is insured if it wants to dock in US ports or travel US waterways. Feds could care less where it’s registered or who owns it.
That was a good joke !!😂😂
I don't think the city can afford to spend 5 years waiting on the lawsuit to complete to only then start building the bridge.
Six dead.. but let's talk about how slow things are now..
The world goes on unfortunately
@@spenceregerton5268it does, however, we are force-fed so much other information that it makes people forget what they were shown or told just the day before....
Lies
They was Spanish not big deal
yeah but this didnt "just happen"@@spenceregerton5268
This was no accident! Why do the American people have to pay for it? The shipping companies have insurance for a reason!
I guess the American govt will pay to rebuild to get operations back up and running fast, while investigations are ongoing and a possible lawsuit to replace the funds.
Really and truly it's a clear picture of an accident caused by a ship which may belong to another country.
American people have been paying for the foreign wars too!
Trickle down economics. The costs trickle down to the American people.
person driving the boat, called the PILOT is a LOCAL AMERICAN CAPTAIN
who works in that port. He also dropped the anchor trying to stop the boat.
You should always have 2 ways in and 2 ways out
No more hoe mo stuff!
Truckers are considered dangerous cargo haulers. They are not allowed in tunnels. Traveling in an RV with propane we used to follow the truck routes. How many bridges can one afford to build?
Can still take the 695 loop around the city. It just takes longer.
It’s a bay.
That’s not how it works with bays.
You don’t need to follow hazmat routing unless the amount is considered a bulk package.
Will somebody ask why the tugs wasnt guilding this ship in and out of port like they do every day hello
It's our so called government to further collapse USA... Biden crime family and his boss Obama and freinds
Federal money my A$$
Doesn't the container ship have insurance ?
Of course they do. Do you want us to wait until it gets settled through the courts first? That could take decades. Or better yet, begin repairs now and send the bill to the courts later.
Seriously doubt they could afford rebuilding almost 2 miles of bridge, even though their job is to take money for nothing lol
There’s an obscure law from 1851 that prevents them from having to pay for damages
I like that field reporter. He knows how to report a story.
What a horrible tragedy prayers for all who is affected by this awful tragedy and the families of the victims that passed away
Why Federal money. What about the ship that hit the bridge. Where's it's insurance liability? Why do the tax payers have to pay for this?
More national debt= more unconstitutional interest to the banksters running the illegal "federal " reserve Marxist bank.
Biden should call Ukraine and ask them to help us out. After all, that's where a majority of Bidens "INFRASTRUCTURE" bill went to.
Yeah why do tax payers need to pay for something tax payers use? Wait for years for the insurance money to come through thats more important than the bridge. This money would be better used filling politicans pockets uselessly.
Biden 2024 mother hell ya
True.
We can not transport hazmat cargo in the tunnels. We had to use bridge.
This is all just a coincidence.. 😂😂
@@DebbieOnTheSpot What is a coincidence? I don't see what coincides.
Last I checked the north part of the 695 beltway is open…
A truck hauling gasoline can catch on fire and block the forward exit path of the tunnel. Forcing everyone back the way they entered.
This definitely seems >fishy< This is NOT an >>accident
Yeah yeah... we get that you have no idea how cargoships work...
Accidents happen all the time.

@bobbykiefer4306 Was the bridge fire in Ohio an accident too?
This is my home state and it breaks my heart to see this happen
Next up - more increased prices due to supply chain issues 🙃 RIP to those taken by this tragedy
They wern't happy with covid
I’m not convinced that it was a “mechanical failure “…..just saying… prayers out for the families 🙌
You can clearly see the ship lose and regain power twice. Pretty certain it's a mechanical failure. Unless some terrorist was smart enough to do that to try and fool people which I don't find likely.
@@tigerwoods373You are in for a huge awakening. Power failure ? Lmao. Keep believing like they want you too.
@@willymaykit1482Believing in every conspiracy theory is not awakening, it's quite the opposite. You look like a person who believes that every bad thing in the world happens because of some evil people behind the scenes pulling strings, secret government e.t.c. But the world is way simpler than you think.
@@user-iz7fu2dp6q keep on being stupid. It's Exactly what they want.
That ship has had prior incidents including another crash, just a company being super cheap on upkeep
Those of us in West Seattle feel your pain. Our single bridge closed a few days after the lock down. The alternative added 10 miles to the nearest way out.
Remember when the Seattle ports burned down last year I remember the whole port ablaze I live in Everett
I live in Seattle and am from Baltimore. Similar situation only it’s gonna add even more time and convoluted routes for these folks.
I think they did that on purpose because they was talking about that bridge earlier this year now all of a sudden a boat hit it in the right spot to take it down. Something fishy going on
Yup. Built in 1977. Due for replacement. It's definitely plausible. Trade centers also built same year ironically and were so laden w asbestos they took em down because the right way by dismantelling them it would take 25 yrs.
There's more to that incident than just engine failure.
Yes. More than just the engine failed
@rona4960 yep they think we're STUPID!
Either way a bridge collapsed and 6 families are grieving

What a massive blow to the few hard workers people left in a tough city.
Let the price gouging begin!!!🤦🏽♀️
didnt biden also say he rode over that bridge on a train? i been across it 25 times or so day & night.i never saw a train or tracks.
Loool
Biden was probably talking about his choo choo train
There was no rail line on the Key Bridge, nor has there ever been...
😂😂😂
Biden will say anything
Prayer for those affected.
Why arent they talking about the boat driver or the peoole driving across the bridge that fell into the water when it collapsed
The only people that fell into the water were the workers on the bridge
It was a mechanical failure that caused the boat to lose power. You can have the best captain in the world at the helm and it wont matter if the boat doesn’t have power
@@rona4960 oh really??? No cars were going across??? I didn't know that, well damn that's awesome that not more were hurt then
@@hollyaseltine1965 It was very close.
@@hollyaseltine1965they aren’t talking about the cars that fell off the bridge because when the boat crashed and the bridge collapsed it opened a portal. Everyone who fell or disappeared went into the back rooms where they are never to be heard from again. There’s nothing for them to talk about anymore
Imagine all the terrorists taking notes right now..
knocking down a bridge is a piss poor attempt at terrorism
Yeah, they didn't do this, but all the conspiracy nuts are giving them ideas....
@@rona4960 The US invaded two countries because two towers fell...
That’s you. Terrorizing the world
@@rona4960 You are dead wrong. More damage can be done to this country by taking out infrastructure than flying planes into buildings. Port is shut down for weeks maybe a month or so.

True, it was clearly a crash.
You are an accident !
IntentionaI I agree. Also a bridge in Ohio has a fire 3 hours later. They really think we're that stupid to believe it was a freak accident?
The longer version of the vessel showed it steer directly into the tower support
This was a terrorist attack.

@@theboringchannel2027okay, now you’re posting this on comments that are irrelevant. No one mentioned the pilot or the captain.
I dont know, but the way that the bridge collapse makes no sense.
Yes, it does; watch a video by an engineer explaining it and it will make sense to you.
How does it not make sense?
Your engineering degree leads you to that conclusion?
It was a bridge built at a time where ships weren't this massive and the idea of something like this happening was never on anyones minds. If you look at modern bridges now that has ports nearby they have more safety put in to them just in case something like this happen for modern ships.
So yeah everything we saw happen makes complete sense.
Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean it doesn't make sense.
I'm a Layman I can tell you right now this don't happen not by accident

They live we sleep.
Most don’t know that👍🏽
Condolences 🎉 to rhe families of the lost 🙏
He’s already promised he’ll use OUR money to buy a brand new bridge. When that cargo ship has insurance.
Corporate neglect and the company firing a whistle blower for concerns about safety issues. This is what corporate rule looks like.
Look how it fell down. Not an accident

Evil is walking upon this Earth.
It has been said: "woe unto the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! Amen!

@@theboringchannel2027 was u their on the boat this is what the tv sayin but we know the truth it’s bigger then what the news saying
@@bigmoneywaltTV that is how it works in every port in the US. A local pilot gets on the boat and guides the ship in and out of the harbors, because they are local experts for their port.
For really big ships, they also bring on a docking pilot who docks the boat once it gets near the dock. All standard in every commercial port. Put the tin foil hat away.
@@theboringchannel2027Sure are trying hard to convince everybody
Corps of Engineers can operate without the permitting hassles, hire pre-authorized marine salvage contractors, have the bridge debris removed within 30-60 days and shipping traffic can resume into bay.
A month or 2 is too long of a time for the port's livelihood. Likewise to all the boats stuck at port. RIP construction workers. Hope the recover can be done quickly and with dignity.
How come a bridge with so much ship traffic did not have something to help prevent this type of thing from happening.
like a tug boat escort?
This was in the plan for a while now.
I used to drive over that bridge a couple of times a week. I drove between Fall River,MA and Norfolk,VA vans, flatbeds, and drop decks.
Probability is high that strengthening bridge foundation abutments will once again be deemed too expensive & un-necessary.
Truckers wondering what they're gonna do.
That's the point, right?
To destroy jobs & take out businesses?
We need an aggressive PRO-URBANIST PRO-PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION PRO-TRAIN politicians in power
to get ANGRY AGAINST UNNECESSARY OVERSIZED SUVs & PICKUP TRUCKs made by the auto industry,
and OUTLAW them, and who will get as many individual CAR drivers to TAKE PUBLIC TRAINS instead, to FREE up as MUCH ROAD SPACE for truckers as possible, who HAVE NO ALTERNATIVE BUT TO DRIVE.
But cuntservatives (Republicans) and centrists (Democrats) are only too busy attacking the poor, or migrants/immigrants,
or attacking imaginary nonexistent Communists, Marxists, & Socialists, or attacking a tiny handful or innocent powerless Communists Marxists and Socialists. You need a GREEN like Dr Jill Stein or Communist or a Marxist or a Socialist in power if you want to see STRONG GOVERNMENT FIGHT TO MAXIMIZE JUSTICE, FAIRNESS, OPTIMIZE QUALITY OF LIFE for all EQUALLY, instead of just pandering to increase the wealth of who don't deserve it and already have too much of it: like auto industry executives.
The trucks will still be transporting the cans
@dooothedooo1102 Thank you for enlightening us on some of the regulations we are unfamiliar with. 🇺🇸
@dooothedooo1102 They can still go around the 695 loop.
Forget about Trump for a minute, or your feelings on the economy he claimed credit for. Our greatest strength is the economy. The you know from where flu knocked that out, but only temporarily. Now think of all the freight moving throughout the country. Next time you're in a stack, or on a major bridge or in a tunnel. Hold that traffic up for a month?
Being a hazmat route that is no more where will the hazmats be rerouted through hmmm I wonder
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington D.C? I mean the hazmay coming from it are 24/7/365.
The railroads!
I suspect they might rescind the restrictions on the tunnels and open up another opportunity to ________ more infrastructure???
They can take the long way around 695.
@@sfstoryteller1227 and tunnels
He “promised” federal money to build a new bridge? Because there was no insurance? For a ship that was already cited for propulsion deficiency when it was inspected in in 2015 and again after another collision in Belgium in 2016?!
😕🍺.. what do you expect the workers and the captain are from India they don't belong in a ship they belong in our local convenience stores... They don't know what they're doing
Who was directing that vessel?!
It doesn’t matter. The power went out and they had no control over it…
It hit a quay an antwerp Belgium in 2016 too....
Directing? What do you mean? It’s a ship from Singapore that was going to Sri Lanka. It was exporting but power went out and they couldn’t do anything about it. It’s an accident. Was it preventable? I don’t know.
Vessel still should have used tug boats especially being that large when it comes to taking slow turns where were they at ?
A Democrat.! 🤔
The supplies disruption wont effect just the warehouses, it will effect grocery, gas, and local restaurants as well. Surrounding areas pf which im sure have a hard time getting to good grocery sources already.
Why is that ship top heavy?!!! It was taller than the bridge!!!’ Look at it people!!!
0:37 Dont tempt me with an awesome ramp like that.
Why weren’t the Bridge Supports Protected instead of being left Exposed to Ship Traffic as it most Clearly Shows?
For such a Vital Transportation Route a Tunnel is more Suitable, not only Concerning Ship’s Movement but the Possibility of Destruction by a Hurricane should be Considered.
You want to take that money out of the pockets of all our corrupt politicians? Tsk tsk
Elon Musk has a Boring Machine for the tunnel needed.
Wonder where all the funds from the tolls went… ain’t they supposed to be for bridge maintenance and repair?
this would be considered RECONSTRUCTION, not a repair.
THat is done with Fed and state money usually.
They only need to clean the part that is in the channel. Then Ships can go through.
There aren't any bridges nearby?
the bridge tripped and fell into the harbor
Imagine if a runaway ship plowed into a tunnel transition point.
Hopefully it would not compromise the structural integrity of water tight systems.
I hope people in positions to do so are looking at what lessons can be learned from this & how to make such places safer in the future. 😢

This could've been a deliberate "act"...🤷🏾♀️
Was
Rhode Island had to close the West Bound lanes the I-195 Washington Bridge between East Providence and Providence in Mid Dec 2023 due to "hidden" corrosion found during an "upgrade".
Norfolk Southern would have the channel clear by now and trains running again across the bridge by Saturday afternoon.
Rest in peace to those who lost their lives. I hope the insurance company covering that ship will cover the funeral expenses , injury compensation and the build of a new bridge.
How in this world does this happen? God bless each and every one that was involved in this. It's just a sad day
The Fed's decided to pay for the bridge because now they can make plans to re build ASAP. if they sue the insurance company of the shipping company,it would take YEARS in court to even decide who exactly is at fault. 🤦♂️
Definitely not a quick fix!
tragic loss of life my condolences...moving forward they need to have the wreckage moved out in a week so shipping can continue ..traffic can detour...a new bridge could be up in 6 months...cut the crap and get at it

Good ol’ bootyjudge.
I pray no lay offs. Nothing but bad comes from the government. Who are we supposed to trust. People can’t give up. We all need to pray for our country. The bridge collapse is nothing of what is about to come.
I've hauled cars across that bridge more times than I can count. I just retired from trucking 8/2023
Don't worry you all we have another Port here in the U.S and it in Savanah Georgia. Truck drivers and ship pilots will have to make a longer drives to get there but it what we have for now. The port is not as big in Savanah but it will help for the time being.
Hopefully the next ridge will include bigger strictest at water level so bridge is not so vulnerable? A " footing " to speak, so impact has harder time damaging vertical supports?
Here we go another end of the world, fear porn event.
your a Democrap. you should leave.
What happen to the ppl in cars
Except for workers in their cars.traffic was stopped
Total bummer all the way around. We are way dependent on Our arteries and if something goes wrong, it can be catastrophic. I live on the west coast, we have it pretty easy until we get the big one. When it hits we will probably lose every bridge in Portland because we're not even remotely ready
Virginia and West Virginia will not be effected we get our goods from Hampton Roads in Norfolk VA
With so many families struggling to make ends meet already, this is a nightmare for them. 😢😢😢

Somebody is in big trouble
No
I want a interview from the truck that floored it across the bridge at the last minute
Could it be that the Francis Scott Key Bridge could be a retaliation for the Trucker Strike in New York City?
No. I'm not certain of a lot, but i am absolutely certain you are wrong.
Looks like a boat hit a bridge. There doesn't need to be a backstory.
put the joint down, you had too much
Why was a cargo ship that size trying to get through ? Was it a draw bridge?
Not s draw bridge
More than 50 ocean shipping and cruise ship companies do business with Baltimore port, their vessels visit the port about 1,800 times per year. The ship in question is an average size ship.
Bro, we knew somebody knocked out the ship's control once to lock it up with the spread.And it ends up being a terrorist or a military attack just without all the gunfire.Knocking out a key artery wonder
okay, drama queen
We don't need people like you starting lies. The captain notified the bridge crew and the cars were stopped.
@dooothedooo1102 You're the one falling apart
Transportation leaders are looking for solutions? There should always be back up plans just in case!

Dropping anchor would never stop the ship in that situation, it was done to slow the ship to hopefully limit damage in a collision
The momentum of that ship is enourmous for its weight, and not much is going to stop it but time/distance and an engine.

I have a parcel on the ship. Should I call Baltimore police? It is really important ! 😡
That would be a good ramp for the Knievels. They could jump the river.
the loghts on ship did not go off this after it hit bridge check .0.15
Another reason for time estimates. Businesses need to plan otherwise they'll have no choice but to lay off employees.
One way to get a new bridge.
Send them here to the West Coast, our ports can use the work.
Tug Boats would have prevented this
