President Biden vowed Tuesday to rebuild Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge after it collapsed into the water when a cargo ship rammed into it, echoing what some Maryland officials said earlier but adding that he expects the federal government to foot the bill.
“It’s my intention that the federal government will pay for the entire cost of reconstructing that bridge, and I expect the Congress to support my effort,” Biden said in remarks at the White House. “This is going to take some time, but the people of Baltimore can count on us though to stick with them at every step of the way until the port is reopen and the bridge is rebuilt.”
He said he spoke with Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) on Tuesday morning, as well as Maryland officials including its congressional delegation and two U.S. senators. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg traveled to the Baltimore site.
I think I’ll stay here in Canada. The weather is so much more survivable here.
Yeah nobody has ever died of exposure in Canada ;) But you have lots of fossil fuels to keep you warm… wait- weren’t you whining about that a second ago?
No, I was saying that under Joe Biden’s watch, America produced more fossil fuels than any country to ever esist!
You haven’t been paying attention 😉.
Yeah, I get it, you’re grateful to Biden for the oil because you need it to heat your home.
I think he should be sanctioned for aiding a genocide, let alone the crime against humanity that is record oil production during a climate crisis, but much like you, my voice doesn’t matter.
Yeah, I get that you’re conflicted about being so grateful to someone you also think is aiding a genocide. Sounds like a tough spot for you. Maybe you should stop using so much of that sweet Biden oil? Or maybe you’re just not THAT against genocide? You’ll wiggle out of it somehow ;)
Really proving that the average American can’t read above a 6th grade level, aren’t you?
No, I’m definitely against the genocide… And the oil pumping.
You really should try not to be so smug all the time.
Where am I wiggling? Sanction Biden.
But you’ll keep enjoying that sweet Biden oil no matter who genocides who… seems like you’re just not that serious about opposing genocide.
That’s a strange takeaway from this. I’m sure your parents are disappointed.
