World is so unstable and on edge now that any disaster must be that of some enemy
lurking in the shadows......we can with certainty expect fingers will be pointed.

“ I’m listening to the scanner feed for the Baltimore City Fire Department. It’s real.”

He means the video of an explosion on a bridge said to be this bridge, that was posted later on X.

That’s a different bridge. Someone trying to spread disinformation that this Baltimore bridge had an explosion.

This will effect travel in the Baltimore area for years.

No. In 2022, Johnson scuppered the deal.

Going back further, to the breakup of the USSR, they agreed to the breakup, based on assurances from NATO, that there would be neutral countries forming a buffer zone between NATO and Russia. It was the West that didn’t stick to the agreement.

Yes seeing that video was misinformation. On the Key Bridge there was traffic in the mini or two before the bridge collapse but it didn’t seem like there was any moving at the time of the collapse. 1:30 in the morning there’s probably not much traffic.

I wasn’t responding to a post. Just reporting what I hear.

Oops. Sorry. Got the posts mixed up. I’ve caught up now. You’re right.

More likely mechanical, damaged propeller, stuck rudder, engine failure. That’s a lot of mass even under fill control can be slow to manage, out of control it’s going to go wherever it wants.

I’m thinking it’s not terrorism. But if we see another ship do the same thing in a day or two ....

At least seven vehicles, including at least one tractor-trailer-sized vehicle, have collapsed into the water, Baltimore City Fire spokesman Kevin Cartwright confirmed with WTOP. He added that a dive team was deployed to help those in the river.

From WTOP.

Hard to know how many.

It wasn’t rush hour, but it wasn’t empty.

The Francis Scott Key Bridge has collapsed after a ship collision in Baltimore. The 1,200 feet (366 m) span bridge was the third longest span of any continuous truss in the world.

Maybe a slightly different angle.

(I can’t get on twitter)

This looks deliberate, frankly.

If they have a COOP they could use Sparrows Point or something and still have a functioning port. It is just outside the bridge area. The channel will have to be cleared.

Yes - the big explosion is from Russia or someplace.

Between fake text with a years-old video, or fake AI images, one really needs to be careful on what to believe.
