Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
The parti of financial responsibilities 🤡
And yet further evidence that Trump is a fucking idiot.
This has been a plan for a long time. There are 2 islands they were planning on using as midway surfacing points for car and train tunnels 20 years ago.
That would "reduce" the project to two canal-tunnels. Sounds do-able alhough I have not compared sea depths an types of the sea bottom which are more critical than length.
There's are documentaries on the project with 3d renders. Was a cool engineering idea.
Doable? It's still a massive project to connect one area where nobody lives, to another are where nobody lives. Start with a regular ferry first.
I wrote doable....not sensible
Trump and Putin be like what if kissed in the undersea tunnel 😳
Like the tunnel scene in Irreversible?!
God willing
Is Elon digging a hole again?
Sure they need this! Go for it! As long as they can put their name on it it's justified for them. Let's act as if there is no Russian boycot and their economy is okay. Let's pretend the usa has affordable healthcare an education for all citizens......
Ok, all politics aside, it would be cool to be able to take a train to Russia. Not that it will ever actual be possible in my lifetime. Wish the world was a good place.
Aside from the political issues and technical issues, have you looked at what parts of Russia and the us would be joined? What would you do on either side?
To make it actually go somewhere you’d need to add a couple thousand miles high speed rail from the main parts of the us, including across places there are no roads yet, and n the Russian side like 5,000 mile high speed rail across Siberia (or I suppose a couple thousand miles to china
Is this just some kind of reference to the ukrainian guy who had a gold plated train given to him by Russia in his mansion or some such insanity? I mean sounds VERY trump, but still redickyoulose
Do it. I want this tunnel and I want it yesterday. Make it happen. Give us the plan. Give us the funds. Make both economies stronger with a direct train tunnel. Save your fucking legacy with some mega structure that actually helps people. I'll fucking re-paint "THE TRUMP TUNNEL" every other year on both entrances.
"If we just kiss Putin's boot a little bit more, his failing economy will marry our failing economy and two negatives cancel out!"
