Many more parking restrictions take affect on april 10th and many stay in effect until the first week of of may. It runs from the 27 to the 29th on the parkway eakins oval and the parkway steps. Commuters and reads have concerns and questions why they start so soon and last so long. When the president came in, the president of the United States of america. It took us one day. The pope came in. The pope. It was a week. So the fact that the nfl draft take a month just blows my mind. Others tell us traffic and parking are a headache but excited to welcome the nfl to town. I am a fan of the nfl and its cool that they are coming to the city and to the art museum. The city estimates the nfl and fans will bring millions into philadelphia.

Lanes are open here approaching cotman avenue but the speeds are not so hot. Just 8 Miles Per Hour past penns landing and 5 Miles Per Hour northbound past the betsy ross bridge.

This attack is being called one of the worst in syrias six year civil war. A suspected chemical strike in the northern provence left dozens of people dead including children, the images are hard to look at. The administration is putting the fault of this attack on the obama administration. Calling them heinous and cannot be ignored by the civilized world but calls it a consequence of the past administrations weakness and president obama did nothing after establishing a red line in 2012 after syrias use of chemical weapons. The facts are confirmed that assad is testing President Trump and he is testing our new secretary of state tillerson. And we cant do nothing. Well have to have an appropriate response. The Trump Administration has said in the past its up to the people of syria to pick what he calls a leader, this afternoon its unclear who carried out the air strikes, this afternoon Rex Tillerson said that russia and iran bear great moral responsibility for the deaths and russia denied their planes had any involvement. Tushing to the terror attack that happened in russia, we now know that a 22yearold suicide bomber was behind the deadly blast. No group has claimed responsibility for the subway attack that killed 13 people and another 49 victims are in the hospital. Some of them in grave condition.

Democrats and republicans in a better debate over President Trumps nominee for the Supreme Court, neil gorsuch. Republican leader, Mitch Mcconnell is poised to change long Standing Senate rules to get around that. Each side is casting blame on the other for the high stakes partisan stalemate. And the Trump Administration down plays revelations that russia interfered with the last years election and the real story is that former susan rice may have revealed known associates picked up by surveillance.

And the Trenton Rescue Mission keeping their doors open. Action news told you about their funding troubles in november.
