Despite the terrible train wreck en route, Congressional GOP got to their Retreat safely at Greenbrier Resort, coincidentally the site/a massive underground bunker emergency shelter for the US Congress built during the Cold War, code named "Project Greek Island.” #safespace ?

Another interesting coincidence: my mother (see pinned tweet), an army nurse, served at the resort while it was an army hospital during WW2. There she once danced with Gen Eisenhower, &met my dad who was visited his brother who was a patient.
In an even stranger coincidence, before the war, around the Great Depression, my maternal grandmother was a cook at the resort she referred to by the old name, White Sulphur Springs. She fed the bands that played there, like Benny Goodman. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Green…
