    So the question is did the local pilots dismiss the tugs or the ship's captain.  I am not an expert sailor, but I thought when the ship was under control of local pilots they had full control within the waters they are paid to pilot.  Regardless, it is not known if the tugs could have really done anything in this situation.

    Yeah I have no idea either. I read they were being tugged around 1am ish and dismissed shortly after at 1:09am. The accident happened around 1:30am ish but that was after they had veered off course. The recent press conference just said there are 4700 containers on board and 56 are hazardous.
     
    Reminds me that in 2022 the Ever Forward got stuck in our bay due to pilot negligence. https://abcnews.go.com/US/cargo-ship-stuck-chesapeake-bay-freed-month/story?id=84133293 The local pilot was busy on his phone and the other pilot had left the bridge. Was a complete mess to get it unstuck, I can only imagine how long the cleanup for this disaster is going to take though..

    Supposedly they lost control of the ship and its propulsion (note: I know nothing about sailing.) It seems insane though that something like this could fail to such a degree that they hit the pillar and bring down the whole bridge....perhaps one of those rare "one in a million" type accidents. I suspect the company who owns the ship will pay out major money in damages.

    Its been a heck of a weird day. Being woken up early in the morning to my husband mumbling "parents won't stop txting me... bridge has collapsed. they're freaking out!" 
     
    and me half asleep being very confused. "which one? our county bridge?"
     
    "no no.. baltimore"
     
    "the bay bridge?!"
     
    "no baltimore or something"
     
    We appreciated the concern, but his family have no conception that we're really quite far from Baltimore, but I think his parents associate the key bridge with ANY bridge they've been on in this state at any given time.
     
    It was a beautiful bridge. So many memories, used to look on it from my house growing up. His first trip to the US, we took photos of it from Ft McHenry.

    I really don't understand what the ship was doing there and why it wasn't being tugged. Lordy.. it's going to be so expensive to rebuild. Traffic will be a nightmare.

    So, the next time I trade in my used car, is an Attorney General and a court going to scrutinize what I believe to be a fair valuation of my trade-in during the negotiations?  It's called a negotiation.....This is exactly the same thing as the Trump /James case.

    Aside from the fact that the completely partisan Jan. 6th Committee put out this narrative, if someone was assaulting an officer they deserve a punishment.  Now when this happens to all the masked Antifa, BLM and extreme Leftist “mostly peaceful” protesters, maybe people will have more trust in the government.

    Meanwhile Old Corrupt Petulant Joe is abandoning USC hostages again.  I guess since none are LGBT+ basketball players it is fine for the truly devout Joe worshippers.  As to your comment, which bank or surety company was defrauded?  Why was CNN suggesting Trump sell Mar A Lago to cover his bond when the really smart judge said it was only worth $18 million.  Why did the Governor of NY have to come out and re-assure the others that play in the NY commercial real estate game that they will not be prosecuted for the same thing since they were not Trump (unless of course they don't toe the Leftist/Democrat line or at least keep campaign money flowing).

    Saw this, and it brought back memories of all the Clinton wag-the-dog antics.  Sure it is RT, but it is hard to argue how Kosovo turned out after the nation building from the West.  It also begs the question as to if Yugoslavia was fine to break up and re-draw political boundaries along sectarian lines, why is Ukraine now different.
     
    Ruins of Yugoslavia: How Russia learned that NATO poses a threat
     
    Unsurprisingly, problems in the region did not end with the expulsion of the Serbs. To this day, Kosovo is a poor country with major corruption issues. The US took an active part in the reconstruction of Kosovo, but the region was mostly used by businessmen and officials for personal enrichment. Many of them have profited from murky schemes, including former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who owned a share of the only private mobile network operator in the region, and later tried to grab a piece of a state-owned company. Coincidentally, Albright’s daughter is the executive director of a corporation that distributes development grants to poor countries (including Kosovo). In Kosovo, there are 800,000 migrant workers per 1,800,000 inhabitants. Moreover, the republic has turned into a stronghold of the Albanian mafia. Even the Western press was forced to admit the failed state-building attempt in Kosovo.
     
    A few years after the events of 1999, Montenegro peacefully broke away from Yugoslavia, and the latter ceased to exist. President Slobodan Milosevic was overthrown in 2000 as a result of unrest in Belgrade and was secretly extradited to the international criminal tribunal in the Hague. In 2006, before the trial’s conclusion, he died age 64 in the UN prison there and immediately suspicions were raised, which have persisted, over how he died.

    Just wow.  I know when I moved into my current complex they had a weight limit on dogs, but it was never enforced.  A few years ago we had an activist attorney and dog hater join the board that decided it was time to start enforcing it.  He is not on the board anymore and things returned to normal.

    Biden’s Shameful Betrayal of Israel at the United Nations
     
    President Biden has been getting increasingly bellicose in his rhetoric against Israel in recent weeks, particularly when it comes to Israeli plans to finish the job against Hamas by invading Rafah in southern Gaza. Over the weekend, the administration dispatched Vice President Kamala Harris to ABC to again chastise the planned Israeli offensive, claiming, laughably, that she had “studied the maps” and decided that Israel’s plan to evacuate civilians from the area wasn’t feasible.
