If it is cross threaded, drill it out and tap it to a larger thread size.

Looks like there is still enough bolt sticking out to weld a nut to. Take that washer off and find a nut that just fits over the existing bolt. Weld the inside of the nut to the bolt. Once it cools, you should be able to remove it with an impact.

Murphy wins again. As usual...there is a smooth path when things go wrong and a windy, bumpy, dirt trail and it just started raining buckets along with golfball-size hail on the direction our fixes lead to.... Someone kick that murphy guy in the jewels....
