BALTIMORE, MD — As crews continued to deal with the aftermath of the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg praised the cargo ship Dali for helping dismantle racism in American roads.
With the investigation into the cause of the disaster still in progress and the rebuilding of the bridge expected to be a long and complicated process, Buttigieg hailed the collapse as a step in the right direction to root out the deep-seated systemic racism and oppressive ideology that formed the foundation of the nation's roads and bridges.
"This catastrophe is a beautiful turning point," Buttigieg told reporters. "Gone are the days when we will allow these symbols of discrimination to continue to stand. Thank you, cargo ship Dali, for taking such bold action to dismantle these oppressive structures. Also, I'm gay."
The collapse of the bridge resulted in the closure of the Baltimore port, raising speculation that shipping delays and supply line issues will lead to more economic challenges across the country. Biden administration officials say this is a small price to pay to cleanse the U.S. transportation system of its bigotry. "Sacrifices need to be made," Buttigieg said. "If crippling the national economy and making it more difficult to obtain goods and maintain commerce is what it takes to absolve us of the sins of our racist bridges and roads, so be it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to catch a flight for my vacation. Chasten is taking me to Turks & Caicos! Eeek!"
At publishing time, Buttigieg had commissioned a life-sized bronze statue of the cargo ship Dali to be placed in the Patapsco River.

“Thank you, cargo ship Dali, for taking such bold action to dismantle these oppressive structures.”
“Also, I’m gay.”
HaHaHa! Great headline!
Butt plug is one evil piece of 💩
I just can’t stand him. He is so snarky. He was on Fox today, early in the morning with Dana and the other guy and he couldn’t stand when they interrupted him to ask questions you could tell he was getting annoyed just the kind of person you wanna punch. Father forgive me.
And the port of Baltimore should be closed forever anyway because it was once a Slave Trading port.
Social Justice!
How much longer will the Babylon Bee be allowed to spread malinformation (true but embarrassing to the feral government) before the lot of them are arrested and “reeducated?”
Got me again.🤣🤣
All of the “construction workers” that died in the collapse were illegal aliens. Had they not come here illegally, and instead waited their turn, they’d still be alive today.
I know this is the Bee, but I’m betting that the rebuilt bridge will have a DEI name once it’s completed. Count on it.
we didn’t build that anyway!
/s
Pete, got his job cause he is a homosexual.
No experience.
Not compatent
Not even a quota boy.
A worthless mookabooker.
” mookabooker”
What is that? Can’t even find it doing a search. It will be my Word Of The Day.
It is a made up word
In most places if you state someone is a mother f-er you get banned
This is my alternative
Sounds good.
Interesting.
Seriously, I posted this from the BEE because it was such an unmitigated disaster with only a unintentional, very limited loss of life.
Of course there was serious negligence, and the real world consequences always come to bear.
