Biden Administration Announces $1.4 Billion , to Improve Rail Safety.

On Sept.

25, the Biden administration revealed that over $1.4 billion has been awarded to projects geared toward railway safety.

Specifically, "70 projects in 35 states and Washington, D.C.," will receive the funds, AP reports.

Much of the money is provided by the 2021 infrastructure law.

These projects will make American rail safer, more reliable, and more resilient, delivering tangible benefits to dozens of communities where railroads are located, and strengthening supply chains for the entire country.

Railroad safety has gained national attention ever since the East Palestine, Ohio, incident in which a train carrying hazardous chemicals crashed and spilled toxins throughout the town.

Railroad safety has gained national attention ever since the East Palestine, Ohio, incident in which a train carrying hazardous chemicals crashed and spilled toxins throughout the town.

Several other derailments have occurred since that incident.

The new rail projects will see tracks upgraded, bridges repaired, improved railway connectivity and more.

$178.4 million will go toward restoring passenger service along areas near the Gulf of Mexico that have been out of commission since 2005's Hurricane Katrina.

This is a significant milestone, representing years of dedicated efforts to reconnect our communities after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.

, Sen.

Roger Wicker, R-Miss., via statement.

Restoring passenger rail service will create jobs, improve quality of life, and offer a convenient travel option for tourists, contributing to our region’s economic growth and vitality, Sen.

Roger Wicker, R-Miss., via statement.

The largest grant, $202 million, will serve to restructure railways in California to build a high-speed rail line

“No Deal? Too Bad” — Trump Threatens Massive Sanctions on Russia as 50-Day Deadline Looms

U.S President Donald Trump has issued a blistering 50-day warning to Russia: reach a deal, or face the full force of U.S. tariffs and sanctions. Speaking on the Ukraine-Russia war, Biden declared he’s “on nobody’s side” — except the side that wants the killing to stop. But if Moscow doesn’t act, the U.S. is ready to strike economically. With time ticking and global tensions high, this could mark a major turning point in the war — or a slide into deeper confrontation. What happens if the Kremlin refuses? And is Biden ready to follow through? #Biden #Russia #UkraineWar #Putin #BidenSpeech #USPolitics #Sanctions #Tariffs #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineCrisis #RussiaSanctions #BidenWarning #InternationalRelations #GlobalTensions #BidenVsPutin ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

Trump DEFENDS Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Files Fury, Accuses ‘Selfish’ MAGA World Of Undermining Bondi

President Donald Trump vigorously defended Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein documents, accusing his own MAGA allies of orchestrating an unfair campaign against her. At a recent rally, he lambasted critics, saying they’re “all going after AG Pam Bondi” despite her "fantastic job." Trump blamed "selfish people" for obsessing over the Epstein Files—penned by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Brennan, and Biden appointees—rather than celebrating what he calls “the perfect administration.” He claimed MAGA is being undermined by endless distractions and urged focus on issues like border security, Energy Dominance, election fraud, and public safety. Trump dismissed calls for renewed scrutiny of Epstein, referencing fallout from alleged “fake dossiers” and expanded investigations. He praised Bondi’s ongoing work into the 2020 election and emphasized America’s resurgence. His remarks reignited MAGA infighting and shifted attention from past controversies to future political battles. #Trump #PamBondi #EpsteinFiles #MAGA #AGDefense #ElectionFraud #SelfishCritics #BorderSecurity #EnergyDominance #FEMA #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #TrumpRally #EpsteinDocs #ObamaComeyBrennan #FakeDossier #2020Election #MAGAConflict #ElectionInvestigation #TrumpSpeech #BondiDefense ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

Trump AXES Funding for California Rail Project | SLAMS ‘Newscum’ Over $130B ‘Train to Nowhere’ Plan

In a fiery declaration, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially axed all federal funding for California’s long-delayed and over-budget high-speed rail project. Calling it the “HIGH SPEED TRAIN TO NOWHERE,” Trump accused Governor Gavin Newsom—mockingly dubbed “Newscum”—of overseeing a $130 billion disaster that has delivered nothing but cost overruns and broken promises. Despite decades of work and billions spent, the rail line connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles remains incomplete and years behind schedule. Trump praised Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy for ensuring that not “a single penny” more will be wasted on the project. The move not only highlights Trump’s disdain for the project but also signals a political jab at one of his most prominent Democratic rivals. With this announcement, Trump rallies fiscal conservatives and taxpayers, painting himself as the guardian of their wallets against California’s “boondoggle.” #TrumpNews #CaliforniaRail #HighSpeedRail #TrainToNowhere #NewsomScam #TrumpVsNewsom #FederalFundingCut #GavinNewsom #TrumpSpeech #USPolitics #InfrastructureFail #RailProjectCancelled #TransportationNews #TrumpAnnouncement #SeanDuffy #CaliforniaBudget #TaxpayerMoney #PoliticalShowdown #Trump2024 #WastedBillions
