NEW: At least 7 people are missing after cargo ship appears to lose power & slam into the support beam of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland.

The ship was being piloted by a local pilot who specializes in moving in and out of the Port of Baltimore.

Two people have been rescued from the river. One was uninjured and the other is in “very serious condition” in the hospital.

The ship is a Singapore-flagged container ship, the Dali.

Something was bad wrong with the ship. It looks like it lost power twice:

Agree with your analysis. But two details that still bother me are: 1) The smoke appears to be the engines powering up to full throttle while still in the harbor and 2) The power failures would not have altered the ship’s course. But it very clearly, and rapidly, turns. 🤷???🤔

Very good point. I’ve been wondering all morning if this was intentional and I am starting to think it was…

Watched the video multiple times.  It sure looks like the “ drifting” vessel would have missed the bridge support entirely had it not made two separate course corrections to starboard (right) seconds before impact.  Does anyone else see this?

I’m curious if the power system on the ship could have been hacked or some sort of wave could have been used to knock out the power.

Apparently there is fear in Paris of terrorist attacks. Not sure by whom?

The reason was the decision of the French Defense Council to increase the level of terrorist threat in the country to the highest one.

Putin is supposed to do what is best for Russia,...


And that would include protecting its citizens,  right?.   So,  riddle me this,  Patman:  The U.S. warned Russia of just such an attack and we later find out that Russian intel picked up on it too.   So why didn't Putin provide security at a large gathering, right in the middle of Moscow no less? 
It takes quite a bit of time to massacre over 120 people and the terrorists had plenty of time to do it without any intervention by armed security.   And most--7 out of 11--were even able to get away.   Putin says they were escaping in the direction of Ukraine--how convenient. 
Putin has fairly well acknowledged it was ISIS-K but what he wants to know is "who put 'em up to it," leaving open the possibility that it could be Ukraine and Ukraine's supporters (US and Europe)--another convenient (for Putin) possibility.
Here is some speculation for you from me:  Putin,  having prior knowledge of the possibility of just such an attack,  took no security precautions because he wanted it to happen so he would have an excuse to go Sherman-esque slash and burn on Ukraine. 
Mark my words,  he will use it to go "nuclear" on Ukraine whether or not they were involved.

The swamp is full of 'em...take your pick.

I heard that US warned Ukr through some low level unofficial channel rather than official channel.
If true maybe US was hoping the attack worked but they could later point to the unofficial communication.

Brian is a CPC simp but is good at finding and publicizing US DOD documents.
He says that each F-16 requires 8-14 support people and the training can take years.
He used to repair stuff for US Marines in Japan. Maybe opto electronics?

I know Turkey was funneling Jihadis/mercs into Syria and Armenia.

🇬🇧🇹🇷🐍 IS ERDOGAN THE SNAKE? - Ex-MI6 intelligence officer Alastair Crooke reveals Turkish link to the Crocus City Hall terrorists.

ISIS-K (Islamic State - Khorosan Province) is a cover story, because ISIS-K is not real. It was a parallel with ISIS, created by Western services (Mi6). As Saudi Arabia stopped supporting mainstream ISIS because of the bad publicity that came from the actions of the jihadists. And so they had to come up with something...

Essentially, this is a corridor that goes from Turkey through northern Syria to Iran. And it was mainly aimed at infiltrating sabotage groups into Iran and some jihadists into Syria. Just to be clear, Turkey has a training base and has trained jihadists - some of them went to Ukraine, particularly the Tatars from Crimea, but there are others.

This is part, if you may, of the process that Erdogan is overseeing for a kind of pan-Turkic group to emerge in south Central Asia. It's just a funnel. It is also a source of mercenaries. And these 4 people who participated in Operation Crocus were clearly mercenaries. They were not jihadists - Crooke reveals.

Imagine if some Russian diplomat (not politician) said what Nuland said or what Miley is reported to have said. Then something nasty happened.  My point was that they should keep their mouths shut. I have been ranting about the lack of competent US diplomats for a while now. Alex of Duran is a diplomats son so he is amazed at the lack of diplomacy compared to many decades ago.

Then the US statement that we knew who did it 55 minutes after it started IMO better to keep quiet and think things through.
IMO Ukraine is more than capable of recruiting losers using Telegram messenger. I heard that a couple of Moscow terrorist were recruited in Turkey? There are some ISIS fighters fighting for Ukraine I heard. Photos of them wearing ISIS patches.

I heard part of this episode..Sachs rants that the US had not done diplomacy for a long time. Was Reagan the last? During the Cuban missile crisis there was constant communication. JFK did not call Khrushchev a thug. Now it is like the movie Mean Girls. Suzy won't talk to Peggy because Peggy is friends with Mary.

I did not follow the news. Why is Macron concerned? Is it related to Gaza?

Well, Medvedev, Peskov & Patrushev have all said strong things about the West and using nukes, but that's OK I guess...just Russians being Russians...

Oh, and we're ALL nazis...every last one...nice, and I own no swastika or elite privileges... Totally screwed!

And on actions...regardless what you think of the rest of this screed...there is no denying they hacked a dudes ear off and made him eat it or that they hooked up a tapik on another dudes genitals...(is that the unconscious dude in court?)...

But, just Russians being Russians...

https://youtu.be/yqlM_ZEd-ps

Is Macron concerned about Russians attacking France or internal immigrants? At the current rate of advancement Russians are years away, assuming they want to take of France.
