There is a little bit of video at 20 seconds in.  Not much. 

Different report.

Not much detail that I can see yet.  Just addressing injuries and such so far.

Trumps fault for making the Mexican government divert so much maintenance money to building the border wall.

Oh... wait...

Have they blamed the NRA yet?
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I guess the deaths were either caused by gun violence or COVID.  Which is more important. 

I wonder if they used new math for the bridge design.
