Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of former President Donald Trump, has suggested that Russia could be responsible for recent train derailments in the U.S. and linked the incidents to the destruction of the Nord Stream gas pipelines. "We've had train wrecks day in and day out for the past week, coincidentally, right after a report about our possibly taking out Russia's Nordstrom [sic] 2 pipeline and yet not a single reporter has asked if perhaps it's a retaliation against our critical infrastructure.

Maybe. Maybe he’s perfecting his ‘trolling’ abilities to keep people talking about things they want to bury.
That mean the Russians were doing this under Trump He’s dads administration?
The Department of Transportation needs to get after the railroads and press them for better maintenance and safety procedures. Unfortunately, the “catcher” who is head of Transportation is an incompetent imbecile.
My employer has a siding. It’s in poor shape. We have 4 or 5 cars a year slip off the rails or a rail would pull loose from a tie. The siding was very low speed and contents were edible. Imagine the risk at high er speeds and more dangerous contents.
Train derailments are much more common than people think. That being said, don’t be surprised if and when we mix it up with Russia/China that their embedded agents here commit attacks against our infrastructure.
JR is being really lame here. So stupid to even suggest this without even any evidence of sabotage. Did Russia make the train in Ohio travel more than 20 miles with a Hot Wheel? JR has lost a lot of respect from me here.
So why do they wait to start sabotaging our trains?
None of those carried toxic chemicals that spoiled large areas. The reference also indicated that even a derailment in switch yards while going .01 MPH were counted.
No, the Russians would maximize the damage.
But if he speculated that his father did it, they'd congratulate him on his bravery in speaking the truth.
For me, the top suspects in the series of train derailments and food processing plant fires are the ones with a proven record. The ones that ordered or carried out the destruction of the Nordstream pipeline. A terrorist act of war.
My point in posting that article is that radical liberals have been trying to derail trains for years.
