Same. Never heard a confirmation. Originally heard that the traffic was stopped on the bridge and a guy got out. While he was out, a truck started sliding and it knocked him over. That makes zero sense to me, but you never know.

Then Westlake Police posted on their FB page that he just jumped. Nothing about another vehicle. No follow ups. Nothing. Just couldn’t take it anymore, I suppose.

Yeah I’ve heard the same. I would have been aggravated too but I wouldn’t have just jumped 60ft to my death. Plus when he jumped traffic had only been stopped for less than an hour probably. Not like he was stuck there for 7 hours like some people. Just doesn’t make any sense.

As to my comment about Higgins, it was apparent that the infrastructure bill would pass as all the republicans were against it. His yes vote could have been explained as somethingn greatly needed for his district. He chose to keep his 100% voting record with the GOP. Now watch him try to take credit for it.

Now ask yourself this. Trump had 2 years where he had the House and the Senate. No infrastructure but we did get $8 Trillion more in debt during his 4 years. Biden gets in and we have a infrastrucure bill passed within 2 years thanks to the leadership skills of Pelosi. How many speakers of the house have we had since GOP won the house? I rest my case.
