The one body that's been recovered was the one person that was left right there where the force of the blast came. And the 12, the tram was in perfect condition. It was on the tracks. There was no disturbance. There was no buckets. There is no anything. They would have gotten off and walked and taken everything with them.
Joe Manchin discusses the recovery of a body and the condition of the tram, suggesting the other miners may have escaped.

The way the parties have weaponized the political process today, they make it impossible to have a 'D' or an 'R' next to your name and speak to the other side.
My observation, and recommendation from observation, would be, John, trust me, set yourself free and become an independent.
When you like both people and both sides, you can sit down with both sides, you can agree to disagree, you can try to find compromise and make things happen.
