Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapses after ship struck it, sending vehicles into water

A massive CIA-linked floating crane has arrived in Baltimore, Maryland, along with other cranes

CIA linked???

Anthony Scott explains:

The massive crane tasked with cleaning up the wreckage of the Baltimore Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse has a long past with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

The U.S. Naval Institute has reported that the Chesapeake, the largest crane on the East Coast, arrived to assist in the efforts of cleaning up the wreckage left behind from the Dali crashing into the Francis Scott Key Bridge on Friday.

According to the UNI, the Chesapeake, formerly named the SUN 800, was built by the CIA “to recover the Soviet Golf II ballistic missile submarine K-129, which sunk in 1968.”

The CIA used the SUN 800 to help assist in the construction of the Hughes Glomar Explorer.

The Hughes Glomar explorer was a “deep-sea drillship platform built for Project Azorian, the secret 1974 effort by the United States Central Intelligence Agency’s Special Activities Division to recover the Soviet submarine K-129.”

By conducting Project Azorian, the CIA was able to recover several Soviet crew members who were on board the Soviet submarine K-129.

Scott Spellmon, the commanding general of the US Army Corps, told the press regarding the re-opening of Baltitmore’s port, “I don’t think we’re talking days, I don’t think we’re talking months.”

 

Lara Logan was on Redacted. Here are some notes for about half of the interview.

Start of interview - 1:05 - Ship company says that we are not to blame or responsible for the accident in a law filing.

Indicators that something isn’t right or abnormal – raises red flags:

1 – company files definite statement in a court of law (on record in a legal form) that they are not to blame or responsible.

2 – No public statement or heard from people about the significance of the impact of the accident on people’s lives and the strategic importance of the port, etc is not being talked about and/or is being minimized in the media, etc. Logan maintains that the impact is big and that the impact long lasting.

3 – FBI comes out the next day and definitely says that this is not a cyberattack. No time to investigate it. Cyberattacks are very hard to track or trace after the fact – “invisible crime”. The red flag is that when you have the possibility of an “invisible crime” and investigators come out soon after without investigating and being definitive that it didn’t happen.

4 – Any journalist can verify with those in the industry or think tanks that the port of Baltimore is of very strategic importance. When this very provable fact is being denied, then that is a red flag. “Almost a nuclear hit on our infrastructure.”

Interviewer - Mentioned after the 4th point, that it is highly suspect that Biden comes out the morning after the accident, almost immediately and says the Federal government will pay for a new bridge and that there is nothing nefarious, we are going to rebuild everything etc when there was almost nothing said about or done about East Palestine Ohio toxic spill and fire, Maui fire, Texas fire, etc (My note: FBI also came out and said no indication of terrorism, etc). NTSB investigators hadn’t even arrived on the scene two days later to start an investigation. 2 minutes of critical data prior to the accident not able to be recovered. How can they, the White House, come out and say that there is nothing to see, etc without any investigation and Logan has people on the inside saying that this was a Cyberattack and they are lying about it?

Later in the interview – red flags – as a journalist of 35 years she has never seen so many examples over the last few years of disasters and damage to critical infrastructure and supply lines. Covid supply chain issue. Small family businesses and farms and middle class hit hard or bankrupted – “catastrophic damage”. Legislation, regulations, and policy to target farming, small farms, etc to shut them down. What you are seeing is a “death by a thousand cuts” strategic assault on food industry. Assault on energy industry since Biden came into office. Climate policies, etc
(end notes from the interview)

If the bridge collapse was not the result of an unfortunate accident, then it could be seen that it is just a continuation of plans to move toward depopulation agendas, sow chaos and fear, etc in the US.

Q: (Niall) Are major food distribution centers in the West being deliberately destroyed?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) By whom?

A: Elements of the secret government.

(Joe) They talked about abducting them from Vietnam, reanimating them, and putting them back in different places. The train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. That was an accident?

A: No

Q: (Joe) So... The train was tampered with?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) And it was kind of allowed to happen in that respect…?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) And how bad is the contamination?

A: Deadly, but will ameliorate.

Q: (Joe) So no long-term...?

A: No

Q: (Joe) The fires at egg farms: They're all deliberate?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) Why eggs?

A: Eggs are major source of protein for poor people.

Q: (L) So they're just going at this whole genocide thing from all kinds of directions.

(Joe) At a very practical and crude level, as well.

A: Yes
 
Another one, in one of the comments is being questioned about the contaminated fuel, there is not much info yet, though.
Hmmm...

Could there be some kind of new electrical conductivity above water that is screwing with maritime systems ?

Because this feels like an electro-magnetic phenomenon that is happening above water.
 
This was apparently an April Fool's joke that gained traction:


It just goes to show that many people are now primed to believe almost any conspiracy theory that seems even slightly feasible without doing due diligence with regards to research. And this one being so preposterous could cause many to not believe the true story that Mr. Silverstein did in fact get an insurance payout for the destruction of the towers on 9/11.
 
Still little to no information on what caused the accident. The only other recent news is that the FBI boarded the vessel to investigate, but no other information about what they were investigating was given.

Saw this article where it describes how wind should not have been a factor in terms of turning the vessel and that the vessel should have been able to maintain steering with back up power to the steering systems or uninterrupted power supply batteries (see below).

These multiple layers of security for maintaining steering control are mandated by the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations and the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974

Per Subpart 58.25—Steering Gear of the Code of Federal Regulations—a large vessel must be equipped with Auxiliary Steering Gear and Auxiliary Power.

Curious readers who take the time to read this entire section of the code will understand why a loss of primary power should NOT impede the pilot from maintaining his course while steaming 8.7 knots in the middle of a deep ship channel on a clear and windless night.

(...)

In addition to primary and emergency power, many modern cargo ships are also equipped with Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) that are battery powered, though I haven’t ascertained if the Dali (operated by Maersk Line) was equipped with a UPS system.

It’s important to note that Auxiliary Steering Gear and Auxiliary Power (automatically available within 45 seconds of loss of power) are NOT optional. They are required by U.S. and International law.

If Maersk Line failed to maintain these systems or provide proper training to its crew in their use, it raises the question of why the Biden administration immediately declared that the U.S. federal government would foot the bill of the disaster.
 
April 23 Update:

Ship that hit bridge was 'unseaworthy' when it left, city claims

The Dali, the container ship that left the Port of Baltimore in the early hours of March 26, before crashing into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, toppling a portion of it, set sail despite its "unseaworthy" conditions, according to a Monday court filing from the city of Baltimore.

In the court document, the city argues that the ship's parent company, Grace Ocean Private Ltd., should be held liable for crashing into the Key Bridge. The filing was in response to Grace Ocean Private Ltd.'s request to limit their liability in damages they have to pay.

In previous filings, GOPL has argued that it shouldn't be held liable for the crash that left six construction workers dead and a length of the bridge wiped out.

The owner of the Dali cargo ship filed a federal lawsuit earlier this month denying responsibility for the accident and seeking to limit the total payout to $43.7 million, a fraction of the billions the cleanup and bridge rebuild is expected to cost. The company is using a law from 1851, the Limitation of Liability Act from that year, in its quest to limit its liability.

The city said that 12 minutes after the Dali left port, despite warning signs, it crashed into the bridge.

"Reporting has indicated that, even before leaving port, alarms showing inconsistent power supply on the Dali had sounded," a lawyer for the city of Baltimore said in the filing. "The Dali left port anyways despite its clearly unseaworthy condition."

The city of Baltimore is arguing that for four decades, thousands of cargo ships have passed through the port of Baltimore without incident, making it one of the busiest ports in America.

The Dali's "negligence" is grounds for the company to pay the city for the incident, the city argues.

"For all intents and purposes, Petitioner's negligence caused them to destroy the Key Bridge, and single handedly destroy the Port of Baltimore, a source of jobs, municipal revenue and no small amount of pride for the city of Baltimore and its residents," the city's filing reads.

The company has yet to file a response to the allegations.

And the crash caused the death of six construction workers. Article didn't even mention that.

See 'previous filings' 3rd paragraph down (easy to miss as it is a light blue hyperlink).

"Reporting has indicated that, even before leaving port, alarms showing inconsistent power supply on the Dali had sounded," a lawyer for the city of Baltimore said in the filing.

Not much depth to that statement, however it is a legal finding with some type of evidence as it made its way into the filing.
