Sen. Tommy Tuberville voted against a bill that just gave his state $1.4 billion for rural broadband. He's celebrating it anyway.

There are clear majorities in support of the #BuildBackBetter agenda, and even for the watered down Machin Synematic Universe version we got through the #InfrastructureBill. If the Dems could mobilize voters - by convincing them that they were committed to *doing things* rather than capitulating - they could win strong majorities in 2024.

Project supporters envision a train with a top speed of at least 250 mph operating on a dedicated track

That’s right: #AOC voted AGAINST the #OmnibusSpendingBill. Just like she voted AGAINST the #InfrastructureBill and AGAINST using the the assets of #RussianOligarchs to fund #Ukraine and AGAINST increased funding for the #CapitolPolice and AGAINST funding for Ukraine this past September.
AOC is #ControlledOpposition. She’s gaslighting you. Wake up.

The #Pittsburgh #bridge that collapsed was steel, rated "poor". From http://bridge.watch, here are #steelbridges with similar usage rated "poor". https://bridge.watch/?plot_type=year_built&material=3%2c4&service_under=5&ratings=4&min_traffic=14500 (I added permalinks) #BridgeCollapse #infrastructure #Infrastructurebill @USDOTFHWA@twitter.com @ASCETweets@twitter.com @USDOT@twitter.com

Finished processing highway data with @observablehq@twitter.com from the past 30 years, and it looks like highway #bridges have gotten better (and some states just didn't always report info🤦‍♀️). Merry X-mas, ya filthy animals! @ASCETweets@twitter.com #dataviz #InfrastructureBill https://observablehq.com/@m-clare/nbi_hwy_1992-2021

The #WestSeattleBridge has been closed since 2020 because of significant cracking (to be repaired by @wsp@twitter.com). We used http://bridge.watch to flesh out a case study on similar #bridges in the U.S. #InfrastructureBill @ASCETweets@twitter.com https://bridge.watch/posts/west_seattle_bridge

95% of #bridges in Illinois with 200 ft or longer spans are #steelbridges (231/245). 30% of them are in poor shape (all but one were built prior to 1980), and have an average traffic volume of 23000 vehicles/day #Infrastructurebill #bridgeengineering http://bridge.watch
