@Morgan_C_Ross You know they picked a good name when it lasts decades after it was officially changed.

@BuddOfCourse @Morgan_C_Ross It was the first with a fully functional, retractable roof. Others, like Pittsburgh and Montreal had partially retractable elements.

A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.

Donald Trump won’t let it open.

Here is why.

The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.

Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.

He called Trump.

Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.

Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.

Canada paid for the entire bridge.

Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.

This is corruption in plain sight.

A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.

Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.

@chriswarkentin This is how you win one vote in your riding and lose 10,000 elsewhere. Well done.

@SenWarren Yeah. They would have to work, take risks and go all in. Then they would have to hope and pray the govt doesn't tax and regulate them to death.

@Rainmaker1973 Canadian postal codes are alphanumeric (A1A 1A1) instead of strictly numeric like US ZIP codes, which exponentially increases the # of possible combinations. allowing them to be more specific, often down to a single city block, an apt bldg, or even a single large-volume mailer.

@mario4thenorth My local Tims staff are great, but none have been white in more than four years.

@garywfuller @NASASpaceflight @Bl3D_Eccentric @dwisecinema It's going to cost a lot more now with construction costs way up (post pandemic) and the demolition costs (and delays) before construction can start. Also, the site is not a 'clean sheet' which will increase costs too.

@niccruzpatane Delta stock is us today as it becomes obvious they will need to go with Starlink.

@MattGialich One of the camera angles appears to show the TE fall toward the rocket and hit the upper stage first. Perhaps an explosion under the pad caused the TE to lift and get propelled into the rocket?

@TeslaBoomerPapa Delta stock is up as it becomes obvious they will need to move to Starlink.

@TheAstroN8 @asherbphotos @LaunchHeavenX The TE fell into the rocket and struck the upper stage.

[cdnpoli @cdnpoli3]

@asherbphotos @LaunchHeavenX Where's the rocket?

@IanGray94742199 @WhitakerTA_ This is actually ahead now because Blue will have to clear all the rubble before they rebuild.

@Gateway2Space Doesn't even rank in the top 10.

@xAviation These should be standard for black box recording. It could answer so many questions after a crash. Flaps, debris, loss of airframe, collision, etc.
