A massive disaster happens in Baltimore.
More “Hollywood Culture” is being investigated by the Feds.
And Congress passes a huge bill in the middle of the night…again.
Terrorism?
The Francis Key Bridge along the I-695 that connects to Baltimore had a support beam run into by a cargo ship and completely collapsed. The whole thing was caught on camera.
Here are the details:
- The incident occurred at 1:30 AM EST last night.
- The bridge is 1 1/2 miles long and 187 feet above the ocean. The water is 50 feet deep and is 47 degrees.
- There was an unknown number of cars on the bridge.
- A crew of road workers were also on the bridge.
- It appeared that the ship was losing power when it hit the beam. There are reports it was also on fire though one couldn’t see that on the video.
- It was traveling at 8 knots which is pretty fast.
- The cargo ship that hit the bridge was the Dali, a 95,000 GT Singapore-flagged container ship, the Maritime and Port Authority (MPA) of Singapore confirmed. There were 22 crew members onboard at the time of the incident.
- During the press conference, it was said that there is no evidence of terrorism
- It sure looked intentional to me.
- Some are saying it could have been a cyber attack.
- The government’s lack of transparency is the reason no one trusts their reports.
- The collapse comes just two days after the 47-year anniversary of the bridge’s construction, which was completed on March 24, 1977.
- The FBI, local law enforcement, and Coast Guard are on scene. Navy SEAL divers are also on scene.
- Pete Buttigieg has been notified.
- A State of Emergency has been declared.

There Is Only One Surprise Here
Sean “P-Diddy” Combs had his house raided yesterday in connection with sex trafficking. The raid was conducted by DHS at his Los Angeles and Miami homes.
Combs was initially accused of sexual harassment, sexual abuse and rape of both women and men.
Then it was reported he was actually involved in a sex trafficking ring.
There are now reports on Twitter with some evidence that Combs’ private plane and heading to a non-extradition country. Who knows if this is true.
There are comparisons being made to Jeffrey Epstein.

Dumbass of the Day
Some things:
- Massachussets was never a slave state.
- If my church said the would do this, they would never see another dime from me.
Why So Late?
According to the Daily Wire:
The Senate approved a $1.2 trillion spending package in a bipartisan vote during the early hours of Saturday morning, sending the bill to President Joe Biden, who will likely sign it as soon as possible to avoid a government shutdown.
After passing the House on Friday in a 286-134 vote, the Senate voted 74-24 at 2:00 a.m. on Saturday to send the more than 1,000-page spending package to Biden’s desk, The Hill reported. Earlier this week, House and Senate leadership announced that they had come to an agreement to fund the government for the remainder of fiscal 2024, which is nearly half over, covering the remaining spending bills that were not included in a $460 billion “minibus” that passed earlier this month.
“It’s been a very long and difficult day, but we have just reached an agreement to complete the job of funding the government,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said just before the bill passed. “It is good for the country that we have reached this bipartisan deal. It wasn’t easy, but tonight our persistence has been worth it.”
Twenty-five Republicans voted to pass the spending bill, along with 47 Democrats, while 22 Republicans voted against the $1.2 trillion package. Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado, along with independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders — who caucuses with the Democrats — also voted against the bill. Sanders cited a block of funding to UNRWA, an agency of the U.N., as a reason he voted against the bill, according to The Hill. During negotiations with Democrats, Republicans successfully secured the cut in funding to the UNRWA, whose workers have been connected to Hamas terrorists.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said on Tuesday that the final negotiations that were worked out between House and Senate leadership focused on appropriations for the Homeland Security Department (DHS). The $1.2 trillion package covers funding for the Legislative Branch, Financial Services and General Government, and the Departments of Defense, State, Health and Human Services, Labor, Homeland Security, and related agencies.
Some things:
- There is a silver lining to this cloud. Republicans can’t be blamed for a government shutdown. That means we can concentrate on the crappy job of Joe Biden.
- Don’t get me wrong, this is a bad bill.
- It shows we need to get rid of bureaucracies (especially the IRS). Most of these government agencies are paid too much, are too bis or shouldn’t exist at all.

Let Them Be Kids
According to Fox News:
Many schools across the U.S. are rethinking their class schedules for April 8, 2024 — the day a solar eclipse will hit North America.
The eclipse’s line of totality — the areas where the sun will experience total coverage — will span 15 states, according to NASA.
The eclipse route will travel from Mexico, arching northeast from Texas to Ohio before reaching Canada and going back into Maine.
Many school districts, and even some universities, that lie in the direct path of the eclipse have already planned to close school for the day or cancel classes out of concern for students’ safety.
Some things:
- There’s nothing dangerous about a solar eclipse. Don’t stare at the weird sun and everyone will be fine.
- This is a teaching moment. You can teach a kid about whan an eclipse is, teach kids about the son and moon, and teach them how to watch an eclipse safely.
- How are the kids (and college students) staying home going to make them safe? What is going to stop the kids from watching the gun at home?
This isn’t about keeping the kids safe. This is about the teachers wanting a day off. We know one thing, working 6 hours a day for 8 months a year can really take a toll on a person.
Can we just stop with the whole teachers-are-the-saviors-of-our-youth bullshit? They are a bunch of lazy, overpaid divas that are trying to indoctrinate our kids into the Left wing insanity.
They are not heroes doing an impossible job. Hell, they aren’t even able to teach our kids how to read or write.

Another Example?
According to the Post Millennial:
A trans-identified male has pleaded guilty to the brutal murder of a 12-year-old girl in Pennsylvania, and will spend at least 15 years in prison.
Ash Cooper, who was initially charged as Joshua Cooper but began transitioning after the arrest, admitted to the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Morgan Connors in Cooper’s family’s Bensalem, Pennsylvania trailer in November of 2022, the Daily Mail reports.
In a press release, the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office said the judge sentenced Cooper to 15 to 40 years in state prison and a consecutive seven-year sentence of probation. Cooper, who is now 18, was also ordered to “follow all the rules and recommendations of adult probation and parole and undergo psychological and psychiatric evaluations.”
At 4:11 pm on November 25, 3033, Bensalem Township Police responded to a 911 call about a possible homicide at the Top of the Ridge Trailer Park. Investigators learned that a juvenile witness was on an Instagram video chat with an acquaintance, later identified as Cooper, who had claimed to have just killed someone.
In the video chat, Cooper, then 16, reportedly flipped the video image and showed the legs and feet of a person covered in blood to the juvenile witness. Cooper reportedly asked the acquaintance for assistance in cleaning the scene and disposing of her body.
When police arrived on the scene, they spotted a juvenile running out of the back of the trailer. They entered the trailer and found Connors, described as a “best friend,” deceased on the floor of the bathroom with an apparent gunshot wound. “There were also indications that substantial steps were taken to clean up the crime scene,” the office wrote.
Shortly after setting up a perimeter around the trailer park, Cooper was arrested.
Investigators said Cooper used a firearm obtained from Cooper’s father’s gun safe. Connors’ cause of death was listed as a single gunshot wound to the neck and upper chest area. She was found lying facedown with her pants around her ankles and the gunshot wound to her backside.
Some things:
- The callousness of this murder is incrdible.
- They will now try to make this kid a victim of mental illness to let him out early. The defense will use his trans-ness as evidence. No, you don’t get to have it both ways.
- He will probably end up in a women’s prison impregnating all the female inmates.
- He should spend the rest of his life in prison.
