U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) accused Everett, Washington, Mayor Cassie Franklin of escalating tensions with federal authorities after she issued a directive limiting immigration enforcement in the city.
Franklin issued a mayoral directive this week establishing citywide protocols for staff, including law enforcement, that restrict federal immigration agents from entering non-public areas of city buildings without a judicial warrant.
«We’ve heard directly from residents who are afraid to leave their houses because of the concerning immigration activity happening locally and across our country. It’s heartbreaking to see the impacts on Everett families and businesses,» Franklin said in a statement.
«With this directive, we are setting clear protocols, protecting access to services and reinforcing our commitment to serving the entire community.»
ICE blasted the directive Friday, writing on X it «escalates tension and directs city law enforcement to intervene with ICE operations at their own discretion,» thereby «putting everyone at greater risk.»

ICE said Franklin was directing city workers to «impede ICE operations and expose the location of ICE officers and agents.»
«Working AGAINST ICE forces federal teams into the community searching for criminal illegal aliens released from local jails — INCREASING THE FEDERAL PRESENCE,» the agency said. «Working with ICE reduces the federal presence.»
«If Mayor Franklin wanted to protect the people she claims to serve, she’d empower the city police with an ICE 287g partnership — instead she serves criminal illegal aliens,» ICE added.

During a city council meeting where she announced the policy, Franklin said «federal immigration enforcement is causing real fear for Everett residents.»
«It’s been heartbreaking to see the racial profiling that’s having an impact on Everett families and businesses,» she said. «We know there are kids staying home from school, people not going to work or people not going about their day, dining out or shopping for essentials.»
The mayor’s directive covers four main areas, including restricting federal immigration agents from accessing non-public areas of city buildings without a warrant, requiring immediate reporting of enforcement activity on city property and mandating clear signage to enforce access limits.

It also calls for an internal policy review and staff training, including the creation of an Interdepartmental Response Team and updated immigration enforcement protocols to ensure compliance with state law.
Franklin directed city staff to expand partnerships with community leaders, advocacy groups and regional governments to coordinate responses to immigration enforcement, while promoting immigrant-owned businesses and providing workplace protections and «know your rights» resources.
The mayor also reaffirmed a commitment to «constitutional policing and best practices,» stating that the police department will comply with state law barring participation in civil immigration enforcement. The directive outlines protocols for documenting interactions with federal officials, reviewing records requests and strengthening privacy safeguards and technology audits.

«We want everyone in the city of Everett to feel safe calling 911 when they need help and to know that Everett Police will not ask about your immigration status,» Franklin said during the council meeting. »I also expect our officers to intervene if it’s safe to do so to protect our residents when they witness federal officers using unnecessary force.»

El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, sorprendió este viernes al afirmar que su país podría avanzar hacia una eventual “toma de control amistosa de Cuba”, en un contexto de crecientes tensiones bilaterales marcadas por el endurecimiento del bloqueo impuesto por Washington y el colapso del sistema energético en la isla.
“Ellos no tienen nada ahora, pero están hablando con nosotros y tal vez podamos hacer una toma amistosa de Cuba”, declaró el mandatario ante periodistas en la Casa Blanca, sin ofrecer mayores precisiones sobre el alcance político o diplomático de esa afirmación.

Estas declaraciones se produjeron mientras el gobierno estadounidense ajusta su estrategia de presión sobre La Habana, combinando sanciones con autorizaciones limitadas para el sector privado en crisis.
En ese marco, el Departamento del Tesoro anunció esta semana que Estados Unidos permitirá la venta de petróleo y gas a Cuba, siempre que las operaciones se destinen exclusivamente a ciudadanos y empresas del sector privado. Según una nota explicativa, el gas y otros productos energéticos exportados o reexportados al sector privado cubano podrán ser autorizados bajo la Excepción de Licencia SCP.
La medida busca, según Washington, aliviar parcialmente la crisis humanitaria sin beneficiar al Estado cubano ni a las Fuerzas Armadas. La Oficina de Control de Activos Extranjeros (OFAC) precisó que no se permitirá la venta de combustible al gobierno, al ejército ni a hoteles administrados por entidades militares incluidas en las listas de sanciones del Departamento de Estado.

En paralelo, la administración Trump habilitó a empresas estadounidenses a revender petróleo de origen venezolano al sector privado cubano. La decisión se conoció luego de que la Casa Blanca bloqueara el suministro directo de crudo desde Venezuela hacia el gobierno de La Habana, en el marco de la presión ejercida sobre Caracas tras la captura de Nicolás Maduro.
Cuba atraviesa un virtual colapso energético, con apagones prolongados, escasez de transporte, cortes de agua y la interrupción de servicios básicos como la recolección de residuos, una situación que se agravó tras el anuncio de un bloqueo total a la venta de combustible a la isla.

Irán y la advertencia nuclear
En otro frente de la política exterior estadounidense, Trump también se refirió este viernes a las negociaciones con Irán por su programa nuclear.
El mandatario expresó su frustración por la postura de Teherán, aunque aclaró que aún no tomó una “decisión final” sobre la posibilidad de un ataque militar.
“No me complace que no estén dispuestos a darnos lo que necesitamos. Así que no estoy entusiasmado”, dijo el presidente a la prensa, al admitir que las conversaciones bilaterales no avanzan al ritmo esperado.
Las declaraciones refuerzan un clima de incertidumbre en torno a la estrategia de Washington con el país persa y se producen en momentos de máxima tensión regional.
Este viernes, Estados Unidos recomendó al personal no esencial de su embajada en Jerusalén que abandone Israel, ante el riesgo de una escalada militar vinculada a un eventual ataque contra Irán.
China también pidió a sus ciudadanos que evacúen Irán “lo antes posible” y el Reino Unido anunció el retiro de personal diplomático tanto de Teherán como de Tel Aviv.
Alemania, en tanto, desaconsejó “con carácter de extrema urgencia” viajar a Israel.
El endurecimiento del tono diplomático coincide con un fuerte despliegue militar estadounidense en la región, el mayor en décadas, que incluye dos portaaviones. Uno de ellos es el USS Gerald Ford, el mayor del mundo, que zarpó desde Creta y se dirige a la costa israelí. El secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, viajará el lunes a Israel para mantener conversaciones sobre las “prioridades regionales”, con Irán como eje central.
Washington sostiene que su objetivo es impedir que Irán acceda a armas nucleares, algo que Teherán niega de manera reiterada.
Pese a los contactos diplomáticos y a los reportes de “progresos significativos” en las conversaciones, Trump mantiene abierta la opción militar.
