Power lines ignited the massive Texas wildfires, officials said on Thursday. Utility company Xcel Energy said its power lines sparked the Smokehouse Creek fire in the Texas panhandle. “Based on currently available information, Xcel Energy acknowledges that its equipment appears to have been involved in an ignition of the Smokehouse Creek fire,” the company stated. The deadly Texas wildfires have scorched over 1 million acres, killed thousands of livestock and destroyed crops. Ranches burned, highways were shut down and thousands were evacuated. The number of cattle killed in the wildfires is not known at this time. Massive wildfires engulfed parts of the Texas panhandle this week amid gusty winds and unseasonably warm weather. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/03/power-lines-ignited-massive-texas-wildfire-officials/ An area off the coast of Washington state is being shaken by hundreds and hundreds of earthquakes. So is this an indication of potential trouble for the Cascadia Subduction Zone? At this point, there is so much that we don’t know. Scientists are telling us that the quakes are centered around a large underwater volcano. The underwater volcano does not pose a threat at all, but if an enormous earthquake along the Cascadia Subduction Zone were to trigger a giant tsunami that slams into the west coast, that would be a historic disaster of epic proportions. The frequency of the earthquakes that we are witnessing off the coast of Washington is extremely alarming. It is being reported that earlier this month there were “as many as 200 in a single hour”… According to one of the experts who has been monitoring this area, there were over 2,000 earthquakes in a single day… ...what happens if this area continues to shake violently and eventually an extremely large earthquake is triggered along the Cascadia Subduction Zone? Such an earthquake could potentially create a colossal tsunami that is hundreds of feet high. A tsunami of that magnitude would cause destruction on a scale that most of us cannot even imagine right now. In 2015, the former head of FEMA’s Region X was quoted by the New Yorker as saying that “everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast”… In the Pacific Northwest, everything west of Interstate 5 covers some hundred and forty thousand square miles, including Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Eugene, Salem (the capital city of Oregon), Olympia (the capital of Washington), and some seven million people. It would be the greatest natural disaster in the entire recorded history of our nation up to that point. Crews are searching for the people who fell into the water after a ship hit Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge early Tuesday, causing it to collapse. The crash and subsequent collapse happened at approximately 1:30 a.m., resulting in vehicles and people falling into the Patapsco River, Breitbart News noted. According to Baltimore Fire Department Chief James Wallace, crews are searching for several victims. He also noted that two individuals have been rescued following the incident, People reported. Video footage shows the moment the ship rammed into the bridge and the moment the structure fell into the river below: [at the link] According to Breitbart News, there were reportedly serious problems with the MV Dali prior to the crash. Its power went out a few minutes beforehand. “Now the BBC notes ‘an unclassified memo’ from the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) states it has confirmed the ship ‘lost propulsion’ before hitting the bridge,” the report stated. I'm thinking that this bridge falling, the Francis Scott Key Bridge, named after the man who wrote the Star Spangled Banner, our national anthem, was possibly a sign that America itself is also going down. Nice connection Patricia, I think you may be correct. Doesn't look so accidental when the video is speeded up. (A short, less than a minute) President Joe Biden said the government would pay the “entire cost” of rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, after a cargo ship hit the bridge and caused it to collapse early Tuesday morning. “It’s my intention that we will pay for the entire cost of reconstructing that bridge. I expect the Congress to support my effort,” Biden said in a White House press conference. “It’s gonna take some time. And the people of Baltimore can count on us, though, to stick with that every step of the way until the port is reopened and the bridge is rebuilt. We’re not leaving until this job is done.” Asked if the company behind the ship should be held responsible and pay for the repairs, Biden responded, “We’re going to pay to get the bridge rebuilt and open.” The government paying for the repairs will “increase the budget deficit at a time when federal borrowing is already historically very high,” Breitbart News’s John Carney added, further exacerbating inflation. "We’re not leaving until this job is done.” Yeah, biden. Like Afghanistan?? What a clown. I don't know if this is true or if it's a conspiracy theory. Investigative reporter Lara Logan reported Tuesday that this was not an accident; it was a brilliant “strategic attack.” Later on Tuesday Lara Logan joined Steve Bannon on The War Room to discuss the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. Steve Bannon, who served in the US Navy, was also skeptical of the official narrative that was established by daylight yesterday that “it was an accident.” Steve Bannon asked Lara about her investigation. Steve Bannon: You say there may be something. Here’s the other thing that’s concerning me. Why they run to the mic? You had McCabe on this morning at sunrise on CNN saying, It’s not terrorism. It’s not terrorism. It’s not… It might not be terrorism. But why do you come to the mic right away, we need facts, we need empirical evidence, we need an investigation. What is your investigation telling you? Lara Logan: Well, I have a better question for you, Steve. Why are you coming to the mic telling the country that it’s not terrorism when your own intelligence agencies are telling you it is? And I know they are because I didn’t make this up. These are not my words. I’m talking to people who are on the inside, some who are on active duty, some who are retired. And everyone, literally, from critical infrastructure in the Department of Homeland Security to the intelligence agencies, they know there’s no other… This is a cyber attack on a critical infrastructure corridor for the United States. For those people who think this is just a river, this is in Baltimore, what does this matter? The I-94 corridor on the Eastern Seaboard is literally what connects the North and South. And when I talk about hazardous materials, this is a brilliant, well-planned strategic attack on one of the most important supply chains in the United States of America. The only other one is in the Western side in California. And what you have done, you now have shut it down. And When I talk about hazardous materials, what are we talking about here? This is refined fuels, right? This is propane gas. This is diesel. This is fuel. This is flammable materials. This is oversized loads, nitrogen, chemicals. Everything that you need for your economy to move has literally just been shut down for 4-5 years. How did they do it? They knew that they had to target one of two main anchor points on that bridge. There are two load-bearing pylons that any structural engineer can identify that are on the end of each side of the bridge. These are the ones that are thicker and stronger than anything else on that bridge. When you hit one of those pylons, when you take that out, the reason you see so much of that bridge collapse instantly is you just brought 50% of the span of that bridge coming crumbling down.
