“warned of power issues before the collision”
just before?
or hours/days before?
If it was just before then nothing could be done with a 100,000 ton vessel in motion.
If it was hours/days before then someone is in trouble.

One video I watched showed the lights coming back on the ship just before the crash and then it swerved into the bridge.

All traffic is being detoured away from the bridge, said the Maryland Transportation Authority.Well, geez, that's good to know.

So why didn’t they **DROP ANCHOR** immediately if they were drifting ?

IF it is 1000 feet long-—
THAT would be a SHIP-—NOT A BOAT.

Gordon Lightfoot could probably write a fine song about this. But it’s too late now.

No mention of ship's horn blaring before impact?
Not that anybody on the bridge would have known what to do, but......

I do not like speculation about blame this early in a disastder such as this one. As a safety engineer, I would think the NTSB will be called in on this and they will look at the design and the operation and attempt to learn what what wrong. I suspect power was not the only thing, because at this time power would be considered a critical factor, (Needed for GPS, nav, guidance, and helm control). So there would have been back up emergency power, which must also have failed. Maybe a computer was involved and when power was lost, this device lost its recent memory. Maybe needd to be re-booted — unforgivable if if it was.
So we need the engineering team to get busy before we try to guess what they did or did n ot do.

Teams were working “methodically and safely” to ensure “everyone operating here on the scene is safe and that we’re able to make progress without causing adverse harm to anyone else,” Cartwright said.
Is there another kind of harm than adverse?
