FINALLY McConnel gets on board related to funding for this after some 25 yrs or more and this fuck pulls this shit.Its a MAJOR crossing. I-75/I-71 converge here on the Cincy side.continues......
Officials in Covington, Ky. are emphasizing the need for government funding for the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor Project amid the confusion surrounding the lack of clarity in regards to President Trump's proposed federal funding freeze.
A federal judge temporarily halted enforcement of Trump's freeze until Monday, Feb. 3. The Trump Administration announced Wednesday afternoon that it was rescinding its funding freeze memo.
The multi-billion-dollar transportation project has three components: the construction of a new bridge along the Interstate 71/Interstate 75 corridor, improvements to the existing bridge and improvements along eight miles approaching both sides of the Ohio River.
The design for the project has been underway since 2005.
According to a press release from Covington, the most recent cost estimates were at least $3.6 billion, with the federal government allocating $1.6 billion of that in January 2023.
“As a route for $2 billion in goods a day and many thousands of workers’ commutes, the Brent Spence Bridge’s impact on local, regional and national commerce cannot be overestimated,” said Covington Mayor Ron Washington in a press release.

Things that don’t make the regular news. Trump is proposing a $1 million docking fee on every non American made cargo ship docking in an American port. Most large container ships are foreign made.therefore shipping costs go up, therefore price of those goods goes up in addition to the tariffs......_____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

Typically, in normal times and with competent and normal people in leadership positions, the first nine months of a new administration is considered the honeymoon period as they work on their budget plan for a new fiscal year that begins October 1st. As such, it’s still Brandon’s economy until their budget kicks in and you’ve had three months or so of implementation and its effects. The one year mark is when the “they own it” generally kicks in.mickeyrat said:Consumer confidence plunged 7 points in February, the biggest monthly drop in four years, with eggs unaffordable, inflation rising, Trump's tariffs threatening the economy, and more Americans now expect a recession this year.do note last week he said he wasnt to be blamed for the first year as it wasnt his to own.sure seems to be having immediate impactyes/no?
Not this time. They’ve come in with a wrecking ball and are not working on anything policy wise for solutions and there are looming deadlines for the budget and spending that they’re not addressing, despite having majorities in both houses. Repub congressional representatives are afraid of COOTWH and Elongitaint and know that you can’t slash $4T from spending without massive cuts to popular programs. Leadership requires knowing how things work and where to reduce spending and invest spending. That leadership doesn’t exist. Stupid won.

NEW: Aluminum producer Alcoa said on Tuesday that Donald Trump’s plan to impose a tariff on aluminum imports could cost about 100,000 US jobs and would itself not be enough to entice it to boost production in the country.
The tariff is set to take effect March 4.

A Federal Reserve bank is now projecting that the US economy will shrink by 2.8% during the first quarter of 2025.
This is a major decline from when President Biden left office, when the economy was projected to grow by 3%._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________
