“Hrs ago, Republicans chose 2 cut Some of The meager Funds, 4 AMTRAK!!” Cher tweeted.
“They did this EVEN AFTER the Train Crash & loss of Life, last nite!!” she said.
“Majority of GOP congressmen & senators don’t give a flying Fk about the wellbeing of Americans,” Cher said in a separate tweet. “They defund Everything PPL DESPERATELY NEED.”
Cher’s remarks followed Northeast Regional Train 188’s derailment in Philadelphia late Tuesday.
The House hit Amtrak with reductions Wednesday as part of a $55 billon funding bill for the departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development.
The GOP-sponsored measure shrinks Amtrak’s available cash to $1.13 billion, down from roughly $1.4 billion Congress appropriated in 2015.
Democrats argued Wednesday the maneuver exposed Republican insensitivity towards Tuesday night’s accident.
“Last night, we failed them,” Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.) said of Train 188’s victims.
“We failed to invest in their safety,” he said. “We failed to make their safety our priority.”
“It defies the interests of the American people,” he added.
Republicans countered that Democrats were politicizing a tragedy without fully understanding its cause.
“I was disappointed to hear my colleague talk about the funding for Amtrak and to suggest that because we haven’t funded it, that’s what caused the accident, when you have no idea what caused the accident,” said Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho) of Israel’s remarks.
National Transportation Safety Board investigators announced Wednesday that Train 188’s engineer had tried using its emergency brakes.
That measure failed, the agency argued, given the train was traveling in excess of 100 miles per hour.
The Federal Railroad Administration lists the speed limit for the section of track where the crash occurred as 50 miles per hour.
Tuesday’s derailment killed seven passengers and wounded at least 140 more.
Here's a hint Cher. The train was going 106 MPH in a 50 MPH zone, think maybe the engineer had something to do with it?
It is obvious that the solution to every problem is more funding!
Who is Cher?
Never let a crisis go to waste...
To expand socialism.
Boy, they sure can whip out the talking points in a flash. Notice how it’s a different voice every time. So Jr High.
Is she aware that like the Post Office, Amtrak loses millions every year?
Cue that “Do you believe” song.
“Last night, we failed them,” Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.) said of Train 188’s victims.
“We failed to invest in their safety,” he said. “We failed to make their safety our priority.”
“It defies the interests of the American people,” he added.
Idiots all...facts only confuse liberals. Yes, Cher, that includes you.
If you blow in its ear, does a fart come out the other side?
The Amtrack engineer may have been listening to Cher’s music, high on pot. So, I blame Cher. Is that crazy?
I hope so.
Limousine liberal Cher wouldn’t recognize a ninety-ton instrument of public transportation if it swiped her fat-ass silicone implants and derailed.
Yea and he was gay Cher. Another mother may have screwed him up just like you did with your DAUGHTER
Great idea ! Keep rewarding agency failure with more and more funding
The only train Cher is familar with is the train she pulled for all of the Allman Brothers Band during her coked out dalliance with Gregg.
What an idiot. Saying lack of funding caused the crash is as insane as saying the engineer’s gayness caused it.
Correct question is "What is Cher"
So sad God took the normal one of that act.
Creeps me out. Looks like a brine shrimp mated with a turtle.
The Cher abomination should pitch in on that funding instead of complaining then.
