 26 Barges Float Uncontrolled Down Ohio River, Bridges Shut Down

Breitbart

Over two dozen barges broke loose from a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania marina Friday night, causing “extensive damage” as they floated down the Ohio River without control.

Both the McKees Rocks Bridge and the West End Bridge have been temporarily shut down after 26 Campbell Transportation Company vessels, mostly loaded with “dry cargo,” began heading downstream, CNN reports.

While 11 barges have been found and pinned against the river’s bank, 14 continued down the river and six have gone over a dam, the city said in a press release. more

  1. How many Chinese Soldiers, I mean New Arrivals, are here again? I read along time ago they were here to screw with our infrastructure. Closing water ways and wrecking railroads would seem the logical way to do that.

  3. “broke loose”…Journos just print what they’re told. Rush used to call them stenographers. So true. No explanation of how these things are secured, what speculation about what might have caused them to “break loose” (storm? flooding? collision? Bueller?) just rote repetition of what they’re told, not even a hint of the possibility of vandalism or sabotage.

    Nothing to see here move along as local officials take action Out Of An Abundance Of Caution, playing cleanup cleanup & shutdown after the fact. Go back to sleep America. This stuff randomly happens all the time. Aren’t our First Responders just the greatest? They sure do seem to be getting a lot of chances to prove it, though.

    And Brad, I think the quote goes, “First time is happenstance, second time is coincidence, third time is enemy action.” Of course, it is possible that wr have be ome our own enemy.

    The article did not make it clear whether this was Trump’s fault or caused by Global Warming (TM) or by racism.

  6. “broke loose”

    Were the barges being held unconstitutionally like the J6ers? Did they break loose from their fetters from their slave masters? Did they break loose in dance routines?

    I’ve seen better writing in some 3rd grade essays. Seriously, where do they get these so-called journalists?

  7. Incompetence or Intentional?

    Either way it is the CURRENT ADMINISTRATION to BLAME.

    Loose boarder, DEI, Build back Shittier, etc.

  8. FWIW:

    Iran launched Drones & Cruise Missiles against Israel.

    So far Iron Dome is working but that 6 Billion Obama & The Aid restored by Joey Shitpants is doing great things for World Peace after the west’s artillery reserves have been wasted in the Ukraine.

    These fuckers are determined to accelerate WW-3.

    I cannot fathom how our so-called Administration wants to send more billions to the Ukes, but apparently wants to limit aid to Israel and at the same time support the Hamasses by building a dock and sending food, medicine to Gaza only to be intercepted by the Hamasses and other butchers.

    It’s a cockeyed world. It’ll get worse if Bitemypants is elected to a second term.

    “I’m sure the SecTrans Pete Buttigeg will be on top of it soon”.

    Buttigeig will hop on anything that has a pecker and a tight a-hole. But not loose barges or ships.

    The famous WWII slogan: Loose Lips Sink Ships.

    Now it’s: Tight Anuses Sink Ships.
