President Joe Biden witnessed firsthand the extensive cleanup operation at the site of the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore on Friday. He observed the intricate efforts involving cranes, ships, and diving crews working diligently to reopen one of the nation's vital shipping lanes, describing the scene as a "mangled mess."
"I'm here to say, your nation has your back, and I mean it. Your nation has your back," President Biden assured local officials and recovery workers during his visit. "My commitment is unwavering: we will not rest until the cement has dried on the entirety of a new bridge," he was quoted as saying by ABC News.
