    Why Think Twice About the Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse? | Steve Bradbury

    Why Think Twice About the Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse? | Steve Bradbury

    In the early morning of Tuesday, March 26, the Francis Scott Key Bridge on the Patapsco River in Baltimore, MD collapsed following an impact from a container ship. As of this writing, several individuals are missing and may be deceased. The tragic accident will also result in major logistical and economic disruptions. But there’s more reason to be concerned about critical infrastructure failures of this kind. Is our government really keeping its priorities in order to prevent such disasters? Heritage Distinguished Fellow Steve Bradbury, a veteran of the Department of Transportation, explains.

Why is Israel having problems with relations with the Middle East?

The progressives in the US have definitely taken the wrong side of human society. The US has lost spiritual intelligence. Knowing US missionaries, Israelis treat other cultures like lower class humans. They have brought some criticism from the Middle East upon themselves. IS college students are exactly what you have talked about. Colleges are recruiting LGBTQ+ students into the schools of education to spread their genderism k-12. My own Alumnus, Ole Miss, is actively recruiting LGBT+ students from rural areas and community colleges with the promise of paid tuition with promise to teach 3 years in the state of Mississippi. Their plan is to take over the K-12 student minds in Mississippi and beyond. Their school of diversity, imbedded inside the college of education, has a tool kit and mission statement similar to what BLM has published on their radical website. What a parallel!
