Baltimore bridge collapse

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


We’ve been following the terrible bridge collapse in Baltimore.

In addition to the tragic loss of life, it looks like the entire eastern seaboard might be impacted. Snippets from this article:

“The current issue revolves around an emerging disruption in mid-Atlantic supply chains. The major East Coast port is now paralyzed due to the mangled bridge blocking the only shipping lane in and out of the harbor. … The supply chain snarls have sent major logistics companies scrambling across the US East Coast on Tuesday afternoon. … Baltimore is the most inland port on the East Coast and is connected to the I-95 highway network. With no commercial vessels sailing in and out of port anytime soon, this is catastrophic for port operations and could spark supply chain snarls in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. We suspect inbound vessels are rerouting sails this morning. The bridge collapse has severed these major marine terminals. It’s unknown when operations will be restored.”

Coal: “Earlier, Consol Energy shares plunged nearly 10%, the most since October, as the bridge collapse will affect its massive coal terminal, which is served by CSX trains.”

Sugar: “A major sugar refinery owned by American Sugar Refining Inc. warned its Domino Sugar refinery only has six to eight weeks of raw sugar supplies as the blockage affects ships moving in and out of the port.”

Hazardous materials: “One very big logistical complication in the Baltimore bridge collapse is that the Francis Scott Key Bridge was the main route for hazardous materials (which aren’t allowed to be transported through the tunnels).”

For those living in the area, let us know what’s going on!

    My Fellow Americans:

    ALL port facilities have contingency plans for such unlikely events, almost identical to military “What-If” scenario plans.

    This was a critical port of operation, there is no way they did not have contingency plans for a variety of scenarios including Tsunami’s, Earthquakes, Terror Attacks of Port/Nearby Distribution Systems, BRIDGE COLLAPSE, LOS (Loss-Of-Power) – Grid Down, Communication Disruptions, etc, etc, etc.

    If they are playing dumb about what to do (The “Biden” Game Plan), that is deliberate.

    They can easily have partial port operations back in operation within 96 – 144 hours by cutting a partial section out of the way and using dredgers and any other heavily maritime cranes to haul the critical wreckage out of the way. (The real question is how far away is the nearest large scale maritime equipment…)

    The actual complete clearing and reconstruction,…. well, that is another story and will likely take 2 years on the fast track, up to 4 years if local bureaucrats dicker over their kick-backs.

    [“The main question is, HOW is it possible that a VIDEO was made at exactly the right time, available on all channels for SPECULATION-ASSUMPTIONS-DISCUSSIONS and for everyone to make a MAMMON out of this disaster? Even in Germany there was a similar "accident".......as TRUCKER you have to carry out a PRE-TRIP-INSPECTION....an when containers are loaded or unloaded, the technicians including the captain have enough time to check everything... knowing the enormous responsibility and liability that these types of ships have to function 100%...so...it is now the search for real facts and not speculation...what is behind it...CAPITAL BREACH or CAPITAL LOSS AT SEA....insured or uninsured, WHO is responsible? So the BAR-ASSOS and COURTSHIPS are getting ready to make BIIIG-BOND-BUSINESSES too.... at whose expense and lives and bankruptcies of innocent people with or in other businesses that the BIG CORPORATION UNITED STATED calls " TRADE WAR” against us all for their PROFIT, at our COSTS and LIVES? Think of the chain supply management behind this...what kind of coincidence is this? Think of the chain supply management behind it...what kind of coincidence is that? Or a pure technical accident?Or a planned tragedy to cut the entire logistics chain in order to artificially create unrest in all areas? And who will bear all the consequential costs?Whose shoulders will they fall on, because the BANKSHIPS and the United States Corporation of America are BANKRUPT...and urgently need our assets from our collateral accounts, because we are the trustees, i.e. lenders...questions about questions...right?”]
