“...he took a few months off to play mommy and go on vacation.”

And this one more reason I really don’t like queers.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Biden had two years with a democrat majority in the senate and the house and did nothing.

Yep...not changing it means they agreed with it.

[HollyB]

He was entrusted hundreds of billions of tax payer money for infrastructure. He’s been spending his time and this money on the wrong things.

[ifinnegan]

Some poster here said this a couple days ago.

I assume he’s in the loop.

[Diogenesis]

if FOX "NEWS" [began the overturn of election 2020]
cannot blame white people, then they blame 'orange man'.

always.

[Leep]

If Trump was gay ..none of this would have happened.

[euram]

I don’t care what Buttedge has to say about anything.

[sjmjax]

“It’s Fox”.

Yeah, I’ve noticed that at times they are hard to tell apart.

[shotgun]

What stopped them from reversing this rule on Day 1? They have reversed all of the other rules that Trump implemented through the alphabet agencies.

[Beowulf9]

Did Trump actually reverse the rule at all?

In 2018, the Department of Transportation (DOT) withdrew a rule proposed three years earlier requiring trains carrying certain dangerous chemicals to utilize electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brakes, saying the technology's benefits were inconclusive.

I doubt that had anything to do with this crash.

At this time, this would seem to be correct. Such systems still have a fault with activation being caused by other signal traffic and in some cases possible electric impulses.

And more construction workers been black.

[escapefromboston]

So where the rules ever in place before being withdrawn ?
I doubt Obama, Trump, and Biden are exactly experts on the braking systems on trains anyways so I wouldn’t really blame any of them anyways.

[Vaquero]

These c*** s*****s will say anything. Facts need not apply

[Wdempsey]

Au contraire, mon ami.
(A little French lingo there to show fondness for little Froggies.)

Buttafluck has plenty of smarts. He is a mommy and a butt ranger who still finds time to serve his country while somehow giving filthy orgasms to his spouse

As to Choo choos he is clueless.

[Charles Martel]

If it is so obvious that the Trump Administration did something bad by reversing that rule on train safety, then why didn’t the Biden Administration reinstate that rule?

I'm sure that Petey intended to reinstate that rule, but was distracted and overwhelmed by the many burdens imposed by new motherhood.

[Boogieman]

So for all this time, well over 150 years since trains have been operating all over the country, none of them have been forced to use these super-special brakes that the rule is concerned with, and yet we have somehow avoided continual train derailments...

[kiryandil]

Yeah, the little butt pirate checks a lot of boxes, n'est-ce pas?
