JUST IN: Officials stopped cars from crossing the Francis Scott Key Bridge just moments before the cargo ship collided, saving lots of lives.
According to Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, the ship issued a “mayday” call before colliding.
The workers on the bridge jumped into action and halted traffic, saving many lives.
“The ship issued a mayday loss of power. The workers on the bridge halted traffic right before impact. They saved lots of lives,” Moore said.
Six people remain missing. Two have been rescued and sent to the hospital.
So here’s the latest summarizing the rumor mill…. please take all of this with a grain of salt because it’s largely rampant speculation
The hot gossip is speculation that there is going to be a change in the order of succession wherein:
1) William is installed bc Charles dies OR
2) Williams illegitimate is going to be added
3) William is removed as unfit bec he:
a) domestic violenced Kate
b) killed some guy
c) Charles doesn’t trust him
d) otherwise crimed OR
But if William is removed then the crown goes to George which if Charles dies before George is 18 requires the appointment of a regent.
Rumor mill says
1) this is what was asked of Harry in the 45 minute trip to UK in January and as soon as he said he’ll no they stripped him of his security.
2) Now there is some other old white guy no one heard of being considered for regent
Why are eyes on Parliament/Sunak?
1) Both the appointment of a regent and a change in succession requires parliamentary action
2) any death of a Royal must be told to 10 Downing before the public
3) Barack Obama had an unannounced/unplanned visit to 10 Downing for approx 30 minutes today after which he didn’t take press and left promptly fueling further speculation
