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.
Restoring passenger rail service will create jobs, improve quality of life, and offer a convenient travel option for tourists, contributing to our regionâs 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
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 heâs âon nobodyâs sideâ â except the side that wants the killing to stop. But if Moscow doesnât 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 â or a slide into deeper confrontation. What happens if the Kremlin refuses? And is Biden ready to follow through?

President Donald Trump vigorously defended Attorney General Pam Bondiâs 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 theyâre âall going after AG Pam Bondiâ despite her "fantastic job." Trump blamed "selfish people" for obsessing over the Epstein Filesâpenned by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Brennan, and Biden appointeesârather than celebrating what he calls âthe perfect administration.â 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 âfake dossiersâ and expanded investigations. He praised Bondiâs ongoing work into the 2020 election and emphasized Americaâs resurgence. His remarks reignited MAGA infighting and shifted attention from past controversies to future political battles.

Donald Trump ripped into Vladimir Putin, accusing him of killing "too many people" and mistreating human lives. In a sharp shift, Trump confirmed he supports sending defensive weapons to Ukraine, criticizing Biden for over-equipping Kyiv but acknowledging Ukrainian bravery. âWe gave them far more than Europe. Shouldâve been less,â Trump said. Calling Putin ânice but meaningless,â Trump admitted, âWe get a lot of bullsh*t thrown at us.â His remarks mark a dramatic tone against the Russian leader ahead of the 2024 race.

In a fiery declaration, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially axed all federal funding for Californiaâs long-delayed and over-budget high-speed rail project. Calling it the âHIGH SPEED TRAIN TO NOWHERE,â Trump accused Governor Gavin Newsomâmockingly dubbed âNewscumââof 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 âa single pennyâ more will be wasted on the project. The move not only highlights Trumpâs 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 Californiaâs âboondoggle.â
