I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, or it was something sinister.
Could be either one.

Bridges across America are close to failing every day. There is no actual investment in the country anymore outside of military spending, what do you expect?

Interesting that you mentioned the military. There is a military base close to where I live. The road leading to/around the base is quite nice. Many roads in other parts of the city are in rough shape. It's most prominent in the ghetto areas. However, you can find bad roads in nice areas too.

"Sources report witnesses seeing Biden Administration officials removing bolts and cutting out supports, early this morning, to provide the President an example of crumbling infrastructure in need of repair."



Only joking!

Hearing about a human chain being formed to help people is quite inspirational at a time when it seems like everyone is at each other's throats. Or at least that's how Facebook and the media portray it.

It's up to PENDOT to maintain their bridges, not the Federal government.

Everything associated with this President and his administration crumbles. What a perfect metaphor.
Build Back Broken on Biden's watch.

Different budget, different funds.

Who’s been killed from collapsing bridges in PA?
