Related to this, the railworkers rejected their current labor contract, but congress and Biden intervened, blocking a strike two months ago:

I'm a bit disappointed that none of the reporting on this incident I have come across is making these links.

Now you're asking that question, you might also ask why we saw more news stories days ago about this derailment in the European media than we did in the US.

The media news cycle in the US was literally staring at a balloon in the sky for days. It's as unsubtle of a distraction from real issues as it can get.

Or why we're seeing so much coverage of random "balloons" being shot over US airspace. It just feels off and convenient, even if not a downright conspiracy.

And what else is lied about in the "news."
