RICHMOND, Va. – Well, folks, another Friday, another reason to stock up on ammo and canned goods. This time, a bus decided to play bumper cars on I-95, turning six vehicles into twisted metal and sending five souls to meet their maker. Thirty-four others are nursing their boo-boos in the hospital. But before we even have time to mourn, you just KNOW the usual suspects are gearing up to blame this on… climate change? Trump? Toxic masculinity? Stay tuned.

The official story? Traffic slowed down in a work zone. Bus driver probably wasn't paying attention, or maybe he was too busy reading about how to dismantle the patriarchy. Who knows? What we DO know is that I-95 is basically Mad Max: Fury Road at this point, and the only thing keeping us alive is sheer dumb luck and maybe a dash of divine intervention.

I'm waiting for the NYT headline: "Deadly Bus Crash Exposes the Racist Infrastructure of I-95." You know it's coming. They'll find some obscure study about how highway planning disproportionately affected minority communities back in the 1950s and use it as justification for open borders and reparations.

Meanwhile, back in reality, people are dead. Families are grieving. And the only thing our glorious leaders in Washington are doing is arguing about pronouns and raising the debt ceiling. Thanks, guys. Really making a difference.

Of course, nobody will mention the bus company's safety record. Or the driver's training (or lack thereof). Or the fact that maybe, just maybe, we need to start holding people accountable for their actions instead of blaming everything on “systemic oppression.” Nah, that would be too logical.

So, what's the solution? I dunno. Maybe start driving like your life depends on it, because it does. Maybe invest in a heavily armored SUV. Or maybe just stay home and binge-watch reruns of The A-Team. At least they knew how to handle a bus.

I bet you a dollar that Biden will release a statement about how he plans to fix the problem with a new, completely unnecessary, multi-billion-dollar program filled with pork and woke garbage. And who will pay for it? You. Me. The hardworking taxpayers who are just trying to make a living in this increasingly insane world.

I'm not saying we should abolish all regulations, but maybe, just maybe, we should take a long, hard look at what's working and what's not. And maybe, just maybe, we should stop listening to the virtue-signaling elites who are more interested in scoring political points than actually solving problems.

Bottom line: a tragedy occurred because someone screwed up. Likely several someones, in different ways. It's a great opportunity to distract from the border, the economy, and the impending global reset, so strap in. The outrage machine is firing up as we speak.

In conclusion, drive safe, stay strapped, and remember: The only thing standing between you and complete societal collapse is a well-placed meme and a healthy dose of skepticism. And maybe a flamethrower. You never know.

This is the world we live in, folks. Buckle up.
