>A train carrying Republican members of Congress to a legislative retreat slammed into a garbage truck in western Virginia Wednesday morning, killing at least one person and injuring at least five others.
>The deadly crash occurred in Crozet, Virginia, about 15 miles west of Charlottesville. The Amtrak train carrying the legislators blasted into the garbage truck at about 50 miles an hour, according to lawmakers. The group was headed for The Greenbrier resort in West Virginia.
>A metal container from on the truck was flung onto its side next to the train. Debris was strewn throughout the area alongside the tracks.
>Rep. Bruce Westerman, R-Ark., was on board and said he knew the seriousness of the violent crash right away.
>"I’m an engineer so I know when you feel something that’s got as much mass as a train, anything you hit that causes you to feel it on the train, you know it’s a pretty significant collision,” he said.

>Congress Launches New Investigation into Agents Who Prosecuted Cliven Bundy


>GOP lawmakers are looking into widespread abuse by Bureau of Land Management law officials after the case against a Nevada rancher accused of multiple felonies was dismissed for “prosecutorial misconduct.”


>GOP Reps. Rob Bishop of Utah and Bruce Westerman of Arkansas asked BLM Acting Director Brian Steed to investigate and report on the problems within the BLM that lead to a mistrial against Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher who led a standoff with federal law enforcement in 2014.


Looks like he might have some enemies in the bureau of land management

Seems like it's actually a pretty common occurrence.
https://oli.org/about-us/news/collisions-casulties
Seems like the crashes are almost always located near the driver's home. How far out was the garbage man?
Is there anything weird about the company or the driver that can be linked back to a bigger group?

I am not seeing any chatter showing suspicious behavior, but a lot of assumptions that it was an attempt at harm or a message. Q has just weighed in on it:

TICK TOCK!!! Q, was the train incident a FF today?

Do you believe in coincidences?

Conspiracy theories emerging:

What is The Greenbrier, the resort GOP members were headed to when their train hit a truck?

'The Bunker' at The Greenbrier: A secret for 30 years
https://www.pgatour.com/news/2010/07/28/bunker-greenbrier.html

CONFIRMED: THE CONGRESSMEN ABOARD THE TRAIN WERE SUPPOSED TO BE IN SESSION. THEY WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HEADED TO A "RESORT" THAT DOUBLES AS A DOOMSDAY (COG) FACILITY
http://82.221.129.208/.zi0.html

The Secret Bunker Congress Never Used
https://www.npr.org/2011/03/26/134379296/the-secret-bunker-congress-never-used

Adding to the credibility of the theory they were fleeing a threat is the fact that they had family members aboard the train, including children that should have been in school.

Of course, the Dems/Dems supporters are celebrating. CNN talking head and former Bernie Sanders surrogate (((Jonathan Tasini))) posted this on Twitter before he deleted it.

I personally have doubts it was intentional. If there was to be an assassination it would be more thorough than a garbage truck on Amtrack, and more likely to succeed. If it was a high-speed rail it would have worked, but the terrible infrastructure saved them. Unlikely to de-rail at 50 mph, but I'm not an engineer.

>>113138
Also, if these people were in on it they would not have celebrated. A last-ditch attempt that failed means their end is at hand and gloating over the failure would just dig them deeper.

If it was an deliberate attack I agree it was one doomed to fail. It might have been Antifa delusionally believing a truck (abate filled with trash and weighing quite a bit) would be a match for a train. But if the train had been going full speed who knows how much damage it would have caused. If they had got one of the wheels of the train to derail it might have been quite a different story.

The celebration form one uninformed supporter don't rule out an deliberate attack. It just shows he was not in on it, and if it was an deliberate attack I would assume as few as possible would be in on it.

I also think the most likely scenario for this being an deliberate attack is that undercover agent inside Antifa convinced some of them to do this. Convincing someone that placing a garbage truck on the track would derail and kill many or all would not the hardest thing to do I guess. Also Q talked about sleeper cells being activated.

Smells to me like a deliberate attack but not a centralized one, as you are saying.
Thankfully they are not going full "plata o plomo" and bombing the shit of the train. In that case, what would have been the consequences? Civil war? They want it.
They killed Kennedy and got away with it.
