    Talking about derailments: lol

    DeSantis is on the heels of a failed bid for president that tarnished his reputation nationally, and the power of his endorsement in Florida appears to be waning. DeSantis backed 23 school board candidates who ran during Tuesday night’s primaries, nearly half of whom did not win, while six others were forced into runoffs.

    And just like that, the strike is over... Go Kamala!!! Joe Trudeau!!!

    The Canadian government stepped in to end a shutdown of the nation’s two major freight railroads less than 17 hours after it started, ordering binding arbitration to end the labor dispute that threatened severe disruptions in both the US and Canadian economies.

    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s administration had refused such a move ahead of the shutdown, which started at 12:01 am ET on Thursday. But Canada and the United States were faced with possible disruptions in multiple industries across both countries, including agriculture, automobiles, energy, lumber and chemicals; halting commuter rail operations that use the freight railroads’ tracks of the freight railroads; and the threat that water treatment plants in both countries would run out of the chlorine they needed to provide fresh drinking water.

    Thursday afternoon Canadian Labor Minister Steve MacKinnon ordered the Canadian Industrial Relations Board to impose the binding arbitration and ordered the railroads and the union members to return to work. The shutdown began not through a strike by the Teamsters union, which repesents about 9,000 workers at the two railroads, but instead a lockout of those unionized workers by the management of the two railroads, Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Kansas City Southern.

    The move is a victory for CN and CPKC, which had been seeking government intervention. They said they had been forced to shut down their networks, despite the disruption it would cause, because there was no way to reach a deal with the Teamsters union.

    "The brilliance of trudeau government

    Canada has 2 national freight rail companies.. CN and CP. Contract negotiations were always off set by 1 year so incase 1 rail company goes on strike the other could still move freight across the country

    Last year government extended the negotiation talks with cp to this year.. falling on the same date as CN... now both are on strike and no goods being moved across the country lol"

    Most likely a new immigrant to Europe. My best guess is for the authorities to look for a spurned, lonely, Polish, white, incel, formerly of the U.S. of A.

    Manhunt in Germany after three killed in festival stabbing attack

    A manhunt is underway after an attacker armed with a knife killed three people and seriously wounded several others at a festival Friday in the western German city of Solingen, police told CNN.

    Witnesses alerted authorities at around 9:40 p.m. saying an unknown perpetrator had attacked several people at random with a knife at the Fronhof, a central square in the city, about 25 kilometers (15 miles) east of Dusseldorf, German police said during a press conference.
