(The Center Square) – The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit Friday ruled against California’s ban on open carry of firearms in most counties. The San Francisco-based court's ruling declared the ban unconstitutional in counties with a population exceeding 200,000. Those counties make up 95% of the state. According to the written ruling, the panel of three 9th Circuit judges found the ban “is inconsistent with the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms as applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment.” The ruling came in the lawsuit that gun owner Mark Baird filed against California Attorney General Rob Bonta. It partially affirmed and partially reversed a 2023 ruling by Judge Kimberly J. Mueller of the U.S. District Court for Eastern California. The Center Square reached out Friday to the state Attorney General’s Office, which said, "We are committed to defending California's commonsense gun laws. We are reviewing the opinion and considering all options." The 9th Circuit panel, which consisted of judges N. Randy Smith, Kenneth K. Lee and Lawrence VanDyke, said they applied the standard set forth in a 2022 U.S. Supreme Court case, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. They noted open carry is part of the nation’s history and tradition. “It was clearly protected at the time of the Founding and at the time of the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment,” the judges wrote in their ruling. “There is no record of any law restricting open carry at the Founding, let alone a distinctly similar historical regulation.” California failed to present evidence of "a relevant historical tradition of firearm regulation with respect to California's urban open-carry ban," according to the ruling. The judges said they found Bruen applied to counties with populations exceeding 200,000. But they said they concluded Baird, the plaintiff, waived his "as-applied challenge by not contesting the district court's dismissal" in regard to counties with fewer than 200,000 people. They said they affirm the district court's rejection of Baird's challenge to the open-carry licensing scheme in the less populated counties, which may issue open-carry permits. One of the judges, Smith, partially concurred and partially dissented with the majority opinion. He said the restrictions on open carry in more populous counties is constitutional. “My colleagues got this case half right,” Smith wrote. “The majority opinion correctly holds that California’s open carry licensing scheme is facially constitutional under Bruen. However, my colleagues misread Bruen to prohibit California’s other restrictions on open carry." "We should have affirmed the district court," Smith said, referring to the entire lower court ruling.

(The Center Square) – Self-described Democratic socialist Katie Wilson was sworn in as Seattle’s new mayor during a ceremony at city hall on Friday morning, marking the start of an administration expected to pursue a more progressive policy agenda. City employees, elected officials, reporters, and residents turned out to attend the swearing-in ceremony for Wilson, who has garnered significant national attention following her upset victory in the November election over then-incumbent Mayor Bruce Harrell. In her first speech as mayor, Wilson emphasized that Seattle belongs to all of its residents, pledging to uphold that principle every day during her administration. “You belong here, you have a right to be here and to live a dignified life, whatever your background and whatever your income,” Wilson said. “But it also means that all of us have a shared responsibility for this place and for each other, because Seattle is what we make of it together.” Wilson, 43, co-founded and acted as executive director of the Transit Riders Union, an advocacy organization focused on expanding and improving public transit in Seattle and King County. She moved to Seattle in 2004 after studying physics and philosophy at Oxford University and was raised in New York state. Her mayoral campaign focused on affordability, homelessness, and higher taxes on wealthy residents – a campaign that ultimately led to her electoral victory in November, despite her having never held elected office before. At the ceremony, The Center Square spoke with an attendee who identified herself as Rae. She said she has been a member of the Transit Riders Union since its founding and was moved by Wilson’s inaugural remarks. “[Wilson] knows how to learn from experience, she knows how to reflect, and she doesn’t have a big ego,” Rae said. Wilson announced her mayoral run in March, after observing recent voting trends that indicated Seattle residents were concerned about a lack of progress on their top concerns over the last four years, including crime and housing. Wilson has not shied away from comparisons to new New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a fellow Democratic socialist, who was sworn in on Thursday. He campaigned on proposals including more affordable transit for riders, supplemented by taxpayer dollars; more progressive taxes; stronger protections for renters; and universal childcare. After Wilson’s narrow victory over Harrell, President Donald Trump labeled her a “very liberal slash communist mayor,” before saying he might push for FIFA World Cup matches scheduled to be played in Seattle later this year to be moved elsewhere over concerns about crime. Wilson mentioned Trump’s comments, which were greeted with laughs and cheers from the public. “Nice to feel seen,” the new mayor said. FIFA World Cup qualifying matches are expected to bring 400,000 to 750,000 visitors to the Emerald City this summer. During her speech, Wilson said she is experiencing a “crisis of conscience” in becoming the mayor, having spent years advocating for progressive initiatives during her tenure at the Transit Riders Union. She explained that she's trying not to get overwhelmed by future city projects and plans to exercise sound judgment regarding these projects.

(The Center Square) – After a busy year for the California Legislature, hundreds of new state laws are taking effect in the new year, affecting everything from immigration to housing and health care. Here are some to watch for in 2026. Immigration Unaccompanied immigrant children in court – Assembly Bill 1261: This law requires the state to provide free legal representation for unaccompanied children in immigration proceedings in federal court, as well as state-related immigration proceedings. The bill also states that if an immigrant youth has private legal counsel, the state does not need to provide counsel to the child during immigration proceedings. The bill was introduced last year after the federal government canceled contracts with outside organizations to fund legal representation for immigrant children, according to the bill analysis. Similar state-run programs also were rolled back in California. These children were not offered government-appointed lawyers to represent them in court, leaving children and toddlers to try to advocate for themselves in immigration court to avoid being deported, the analysis states. Anti-mask law for law enforcement – Senate Bill 627: This law, authored by Sen. Scott Weiner, D-San Francisco, prohibits law enforcement officers from wearing masks on the job. This applies to any law enforcement agency operating in the state, including federal law enforcement. The law states there are exceptions, including for law enforcement officers conducting undercover operations and tactical operations in which gear covering an officer's face is required for safety. The bill does not include medical or surgical masks worn to protect against the transmission of disease, the bill’s analysis states, or any transparent face covering worn to protect against things like toxins, gas and smoke. The law will take effect July 1. Weiner, as well as the Department of Homeland Security and The White House, were unavailable for comment on Friday. Homeland Security previously said it would not follow the law. Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Center Square in September that the law is unconstitutional and would interfere with efforts to protect federal law enforcement officers from being "doxxed and targeted by known and suspected terrorist sympathizers." But also in September, Senate Majority Leader Lena Gonzalez, D-Long Beach, who chairs the California Latino Legislative Caucus, said the anti-mask law and other state immigration laws will deliver stronger protections "in the face of egregious immigration raids and escalating authoritarian attacks on our freedoms." Immigrant children at school – Assembly Bill 49: Otherwise known as the California Save Haven Schools Act, this bill would bar law enforcement from entering school property for activity that targets immigrant children unless they had a court order or judicial warrant. School officials would have to request identification from officers who come to a school for that purpose. The law also prohibits the release of students’ records or information about a student’s family without a court order or warrant. Kids and animals Domestic violence and kids – Assembly Bill 779: This law allows county child welfare agencies to establish a three-year pilot program to work with organizations that deal with domestic violence. Such a program is designed to help county social workers to meet the needs of families suffering from violence. The new law is also intended to help train county social workers with areas such as domestic violence-related services, children witnessing domestic violence, child removal from abusive homes, family resources, and effort to work with law enforcement on domestic violence cases. The law remains in effect until Jan. 1, 2032. Cat declawing – Assembly Bill 867: This new law bans declawing cats except for veterinarians performing medically necessary procedures for a recurring infection, disease, injury or other abnormal medical condition. While the bill analysis cited data that reflects some support among cat owners for declawing cats to keep them from scratching, advocates for the bill said declawing cats is inhumane and painful for cats when done solely for the convenience of the pet’s owner. Many other cities, states and countries have outlawed the practice, according to the bill analysis. Housing and homelessness Fridges and stoves in rentals – Assembly Bill 628: In the new year, property owners who rent to tenants must ensure that there is a working refrigerator and stove in the rental unit, according to the bill analysis. Any rental unit that doesn’t have both will be considered uninhabitable. Landlords have to replace broken or recalled stoves or refrigerators, although AB 628 also allows tenants to provide their own working refrigerator. New residential building inspections – Assembly Bill 1308: This new law, authored by Assemblymember Josh Hoover, R-Folsom, requires city and county building departments to inspect newly-completed residential constructions within 10 days of receiving notice that construction work is done. The law also applies to new construction on an existing residential building. Providing for the unhoused – Senate Bill 634: Sen. Sasha Renée Perez, D-Pasadena, authored this bill that aims to make it illegal for local governments to ban organizations or individuals from helping unhoused members of the community or to help provide services that meet basic human needs of survival. This new law applies to local governments seeking to institute new ordinances banning helping the homeless, as well as enforcing existing local ordinances that help the unhoused. Perez was not available to speak with The Center Square on Friday. Health care Bipolar individuals in court – Senate Bill 27: This law allows courts to determine if someone with bipolar disorder is eligible for the Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment program without a hearing to decide eligibility. The program, established by the CARE Act of 2022, allows people with schizophrenia to qualify for behavioral health aid and other assistance programs if they're found incompetent to stand trial. The new law expands program eligibility to those with bipolar disorder. Abortion care for those in prison or jail – Assembly Bill 260: This law bans denying abortion care to an incarcerated person or a minor in juvenile detention. It also authorizes the California Department of Public Health to adopt regulations regarding the common abortion-inducing drug, mifepristone, and similar drugs if those medications are no longer considered legal by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration. It also prohibits health insurance providers from restricting or limiting patients’ access to those drugs.

A Petrobras informou nesta sexta-feira (2) que iniciou, na última quarta-feira (31), a produção de petróleo do navio-plataforma P-78, no Campo de Búzios, no pré-sal da Bacia de Santos. Com capacidade de produzir 180 mil barris de óleo e 7,2 milhões de metros cúbicos (m³) de gás diários, o navio-plataforma aumentará a capacidade instalada de produção do campo para aproximadamente 1,15 milhão de barris de petróleo por dia. Além disso, a operação permitirá exportar gás para o continente, via interligação com o gasoduto Rota 3 (antigo Comperj), em Itaboraí (RJ) expandindo a oferta de gás no Brasil em até 3 milhões de m³ por dia. Notícias relacionadas: Petrobras recebe autorização para operar nova plataforma no pré-sal . Petrobras amplia participação em áreas do pré-sal após leilão. “Com o primeiro óleo da P-78, iniciamos o ano já avançando na principal meta que temos para 2026: o aumento da produção de petróleo e gás da Petrobras. Projetamos produzir 2,5 milhões de barris de petróleo por dia ao longo deste ano e grande parte virá de Búzios, o maior campo do país em reservas e em produção. Além disso, estamos também ampliando a oferta de gás natural ao mercado brasileiro, outra meta expressa em nosso Plano de Negócios”, disse a presidente da Petrobras, Magda Chambriard. Segundo a Petrobras, a plataforma está equipada com tecnologias para redução de emissões e mais eficiência operacional, destacando-se o sistema de recuperação de gases de queima, adoção de variação de rotação em bombas e compressores e integrações energéticas entre os correntes quentes e frias no processamento de óleo e gás. A P-78 é a sétima em operação no Campo de Búzios, o maior do país em reservas e que, em outubro de 2025, superou a marca de 1 milhão de barris por dia. Esse campo, descoberto em 2010 pelo poço 2-ANP-1-RJS, está localizado a 180 quilômetros da costa do estado do Rio de Janeiro, em águas ultraprofundas da Bacia de Santos, a mais de 2 mil metros de profundidade.

Segundo a Petrobras, a plataforma está equipada com tecnologias para redução de emissões e mais eficiência operacional, destacando-se o sistema de recuperação de gases de queima, adoção de variação de rotação em bombas e compressores e integrações energéticas entre os correntes quentes e frias no processamento de óleo e gás. A P-78 é a sétima em operação no Campo de Búzios, o maior do país em reservas e que, em outubro de 2025, superou a marca de 1 milhão de barris por dia. Esse campo, descoberto em 2010 pelo poço 2-ANP-1-RJS, está localizado a 180 quilômetros da costa do estado do Rio de Janeiro, em águas ultraprofundas da Bacia de Santos, a mais de 2 mil metros de profundidade.

O Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) decidiu manter a prisão de Filipe Martins, ex-assessor de Assuntos Internacionais do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro, depois de realizada audiência de custódia na tarde desta sexta-feira (2). O ex-assessor foi condenado a 21 anos de prisão por participação na trama golpista. A audiência por videoconferência, a partir da cadeia Pública de Ponta Grossa (PR), cidade em que ele foi preso, foi realizada pela juíza auxiliar do gabinete do ministro Alexandre de Moraes, Flávia Martins de Carvalho. O ministro considerou que foi comprovado o descumprimento da medida cautelar de proibição de uso de redes sociais. Notícias relacionadas: PF determina retorno imediato de Eduardo Bolsonaro a cargo de escrivão. Moraes autoriza visitas de filhos e enteada a Bolsonaro . “Efetivamente, não há dúvidas de que houve descumprimento da medida cautelar imposta, uma vez que a própria defesa reconhece a utilização da rede social, não havendo qualquer pertinência da alegação defensiva no sentido de que as redes sociais foram utilizadas para ‘preservar, organizar e auditar elementos informativos pretéritos relevantes ao exercício da ampla defesa’”, escreveu Moraes. No último sábado (27), Moraes decretou ao condenado a prisão domiciliar com uso de tornozeleira eletrônica. Porém, Martins teria descumprido medidas cautelares da ação penal, especificamente a proibição de uso de redes sociais próprias ou por terceiros. De acordo com a decisão pela prisão preventiva, uma denúncia foi recebida em 29 de dezembro, juntada aos autos, de que o ex-assessor da Presidência da República teria usado a rede social profissional Linkedin para a busca de perfis de outras pessoas. Na segunda-feira, Moraes notificou a defesa de Martins e concedeu prazo de 24 horas para esclarecimentos sobre o caso. No entanto, os advogados dele alegaram que Filipe Martins não tinha credenciais de acesso às contas de suas redes sociais e não poderia publicar conteúdos: “não praticou qualquer ato em tais plataformas desde período anterior à imposição das atuais restrições cautelares.” Na decisão, Moraes frisou que Martins teve “total desrespeito pelas normas impostas e pelas instituições constitucionalmente democráticas, em virtude de que, ao fazer uso das redes sociais, ofende as medidas cautelares aplicadas, assim como, todo o ordenamento jurídico”.

España cerró 2025 con 36.775 llegadas irregulares, un 42,6% menos que el año anterior. El dato marca un giro tras años de repuntes, impulsado sobre todo por la caída en Canarias. Aun así, el aumento por tierra y en Baleares obliga a mirar más allá del titular.
