Seattle may have to ‘delay or defer’ transportation projects to pay for anti-ICE signs. Nope, not the Bee: The city of Seattle may need to “delay or defer” transportation projects or programs because of the expense of installing hundreds of signs warning that city property cannot be used by federal authorities for immigration enforcement actions. A fiscal note provided for Tuesday’s (March 10) Public Safety Committee meeting states, “To the extent that appropriations made in the 2026 Adopted Budget support other activities, and for which SDOT cannot find efficiencies / savings to otherwise support, SDOT may have to delay or defer projects or programs to free up funding for the signage costs that will be incurred pursuant to this legislation. Cost for signage is indeterminate at this point as FAS has not yet completed a review of all the properties that would be covered by this legislation.” The Seattle Department of Transportation is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of Seattle streets, roadways and bridges, in addition to running two streetcar lines. The note does not list possible potential cuts that could be made by the SDOT. A Feb. 24 city council research staff memo said that the posting of 656 signs on city property was expected to cost SDOT $45,000 to produce the signs and an unspecified amount to install them. If the city wants to blame delays on $45,000 worth of pointless virtue signaling, you have to wonder A) what the real reason is, or B) where the project money actually went.

During the very first question of the VP debate in 2024, Margaret Brennan stated as fact that Iran was one or two weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon.

BREAKING: The US and Venezuela have agreed to re-establish diplomatic relations, Marjorie Taylor Green and Thomas Massie Hardest Hit
I was reliably informed by geopolitical experts Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie that arresting Maduro would lead to a long, bloody, and costly war between the U.S. and Venezuela. Why is the exact opposite happening? https://t.co/tn9sWzPxMC

Devout Muslim Who Threw IEDs At Protestors in NYC Also Uttered Threat When Arrested
This is by FAR the clearest footage we have seen of the man who lit the bomb, dropped it at an officer's feet and fled.

It happens so fast it's hard to see, so I've slowed the footage and added arrows so you can see it.

MEANWHILE, MAMDANI IS ATTEMPTING TO ACT AS IF IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.... a federal court filing Monday that included details picked up by police body cameras as 18-year-old Emir Balat was being taken to a precinct house makes it clear Islamic terrorism was behind the attempted atrocity.
“This isn’t a religion that just stands when people talk about the blessed name of the prophet,” Balat said in a recorded moment, according to a prosecution complaint filed in the Southern District of New York.
“We take action! We take action!”
In Balat’s case, according to authorities, that “action” meant building and hurling explosive devices for the express purpose of murdering those who participated in a protest outside the Gracie Mansion home of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the city’s first Muslim mayor.
According to the complaint, the protest was called “Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City, Stop New York City Public Muslim Prayer.”
US Close to Surprise Cuba Economic Deal
US Close to Surprise Cuba Economic Deal
Two sources familiar with the administration’s plans told the newspaper that officials are close to announcing a deal with Havana, though the exact timing and details remain unclear.
The agreement could include easing restrictions on Americans traveling to the Cuban capital and expanding economic cooperation between the two nations.
The proposed arrangement represents an unexpected turn in U.S. strategy toward the communist island.
After the U.S. captured Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro and cut off oil shipments from Venezuela to Cuba, many analysts believed Washington might escalate pressure on Havana in pursuit of regime change.
