(Carolina Journal) – North Carolina’s 34th Senate District, an R+2 district according to the John Locke Foundation’s Civitas Partisan Index, will be a key battleground and could even flip blue this November, say political observers. “Republicans should not sleep on Senate District 34 in Cabarrus County,” Andy Jackson, director of the Civitas Center for Public Integrity, told the Carolina Journal. “It is only R+2, and Cabarrus has been trending toward Democrats recently. They also lost their incumbent when Chris Measmer, who was appointed in 2025, lost the primary to former Representative Kevin Crutchfield. This race could be very close.” Measmer was appointed on April 8, 2025, to take the seat of Sen. Paul Newton, who resigned to accept a position as general counsel with UNC Chapel Hill. After defeating Measmer, Crutchfield will face Democrat April Cook. Cook has raised her family in Carabbus County and spent more than 20 years as an executive working to provide affordable, high-quality healthcare, according to her campaign website. She is running on affordable healthcare, public school funding, affordable living, and women’s healthcare. Crutchfield previously served in the House of Representatives, serving the 83rd district for one term after winning election in 2022. He is running on Second Amendment rights, pro-business policy, and support for and increased pay for law enforcement and first responders, according to his campaign website. “Republicans are fielding strong, family-first candidates committed to lower taxes for workers and small businesses, public safety in our communities, and quality education for every student,” Matt Mercer, communications director for the North Carolina Republican Party, told the Carolina Journal. “Voters in our state have returned strong Republican majorities to Raleigh and said no to the radical ideas of today’s Democrats, and they will do so again this year.” Of North Carolina’s 50 Senate seats, the chamber includes 16 safely Democratic seats, one likely Democratic seat, two Democratic-leaning seats, three toss-up seats, three Republican-leaning seats, nine likely Republican seats, and 16 safely Republican seats. Two of the three toss-ups are held by Republicans. While Districts 4 and 24 are also lean-Republican districts, experts say these districts are less likely to flip, with stronger incumbents and a little more favorable partisan balance. “Democratic candidates running across the state, including those in Senate Districts 34, 24, and 4, are laser-focused on lowering the cost of living, expanding access to healthcare, and making sure our public schools get the investments they need so that students are set up for success,” Anderson Clayton, chairwoman of the North Carolina Democratic Party, told the Carolina Journal. “In SD34 in particular, April Cook is running to make sure Cabarrus County has a representative who will put the community’s needs before their own financial interests. Given just how blatantly North Carolina Republicans have stacked the deck for their rich and powerful friends, we’re expecting to surprise a lot of people on Election Day with just how competitive Democrats are, even against the most gerrymandered state legislative maps in the country.” Republicans hold 25 likely or safe seats in the Senate and must pick up only one of the six lean R or toss-up seats to retain their majority. For a super majority (the 30 votes needed for a veto override), Republicans need two of the three toss-up seats and all of the lean R seats. “April Cook, Catina Hamm, and Jess Rivera show us what happens when candidates who fit their district run for office,” said Clayton. “In districts drawn to be safe spaces for North Carolina Republicans, they’re all running competitive campaigns because they’re meeting voters where they are and discussing the issues that impact their daily lives.” The remaining lean Republican districts in the North Carolina Senate are the 4th, represented by Sen. Buck Newton; and the 24th, represented by Sen. Danny Britt Jr, both incumbent Republicans. Newton has served five terms in two stints. His first tenure was from 2011 to 2016, when he represented the 11th, and his second tenure began in January 2023, after he was elected to serve the 4th. Democrat Jess Rivera is running to unseat Newton in the general election. She is a Marine veteran and a small business owner running on education funding, affordable healthcare, accountable government, infrastructure, economic development, and support for veterans and working families, according to her campaign website. “Newton and Britt are unlikely to lose in November, despite their districts’ relatively competitive ratings,” said Jackson. “First, both districts have been trending Republican, and this election is unlikely to completely reverse that trend. In addition, both have proven to be strong candidates. Britt regularly wins by large double-digit margins, including in the last Trump midterm in 2018. Newton also has a history of overperforming in his district. They are the main impediments to Democrats’ hope of taking control of the Senate.” Incumbent Britt has served in office since January 2017, and Democrat Catina Hamm is running to unseat him. Hamm is a retired Army veteran, healthcare professional, and a resident of Hoke County. Her priorities include raising the minimum wage, public education funding and accountability, teacher pay, supporting seniors, and investing in infrastructure for long-term growth, according to her campaign website.

(The Center Square) – Under Gov. Greg Abbott, the most Fortune 500 headquarters are now located in Texas. According to Fortune Media’s 2026 Fortune 500 list, its top companies are headquartered in 229 cities in 39 states. Texas has the most, 57, with the greatest combined revenue of $2.8 trillion. California ranks second with 56, followed by New York’s 53. Texas is the only state to have two cities in the top five with the most headquarters: Houston and Dallas. New York City has the most, 43, followed by Houston’s 25, Chicago’s 14, Atlanta’s 13 and Dallas’ 11. No city in California made the top five list. With Texas’ new stock exchange operating in Dallas, the number of headquarters relocations are expected to grow in Texas and in Dallas specifically over the next year and beyond. "Texas is the undisputed headquarters of headquarters,” Gov. Greg Abbott said in a statement. “The world’s leading businesses invest with confidence in Texas because of our welcoming business climate, predictable regulatory environment, and skilled and growing workforce. People and businesses are choosing Texas because Texas works.” The 2026 Fortune 500 list ranks the largest U.S. corporations based on 2025 fiscal year revenue. The revenue threshold for making the list was $7.5 billion, up 5% from the previous year, Fortune said. The companies on the list represent two-thirds of the total U.S. GDP with $21 trillion in combined revenue. They have a combined $2.1 trillion in profit, a combined market value of $55 trillion and employ a combined 30.5 million people worldwide. The top 10 companies on the list are Amazon, Walmart, UnitedHealth Group, Apple, Alphabet, CVS Health, Berkshire Hathaway, McKesson, Exxon Mobil and Cencora. Of the top 10, two are headquartered in Texas. McKesson is headquartered in Irving, Exxon Mobile in Spring. Two other companies in the top 10 are headquartered in California. The others are headquartered in Arkansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington. Texas surpassing California is the result of businesses leaving California over the last few decades citing increasing corporate taxes, crushing regulatory burdens and high cost of living for employees. Since 2005, 377 businesses have left California with 152 heading to Texas, according to the California Policy Institute. While California and New York consistently rank last in business climate, economic development and job creation rankings, Texas consistently ranks first. Abbott has joked he’d impose a 100% tariff on New Yorkers who continue to flee the Big Apple, after increasing taxes and costs are forcing an exodus there as well. “The eighth-largest economy in the world has the best business climate in the U.S. Texas has once again emerged as the state most likely to succeed when it comes to attracting capital investment from the private sector,” Site Selection magazine said last fall when the latest ranking came out. “That’s because from the governor’s office in Austin to economic development offices in communities large and small across the Lone Star State, those charged with marketing Texas know they have an easy sell – no corporate tax, sensible business regulations, business-dedicated courts, unbeatable logistics infrastructure and a huge labor force, among other factors. Their challenge is to keep it that way.” Texas is also consecutively ranked the top state for business, job creation and capital investment for more than a decade by Area Development magazine. Texas received the top ranking again last year because of “an astonishing $10.6 billion in total capital investment across a dozen high-impact projects,” the magazine said. Amazon also won the “Non-Manufacturing Project of the Year,” for investing $200 million in a project in Cleburne, Texas, estimated to create 1,000 jobs. Amazon has been expanding operations in Texas over the past few years, The Center Square reported. Since 2015, every year that Abbott’s been governor, Texas has ranked first as the best state for economic development, as well as the best state for business 20 years in a row, including a few years preceding Abbott, The Center Square reported. Nationwide, 95 financial companies were on the Fortune 500 list, leading all sectors, Fortune notes. Their combined revenue topped $4.1 trillion. Their revenue was surpassed by Nvidia, which became the first $4 trillion dollar Fortune 500 company, moving past Apple to claim the most valuable company title. Eleven percent of Fortune 500 companies are led by women, 55, including “some of the most recognized names in the business,” Fortune said. The print edition of the list hits newsstands June 16.

(The Center Square) – Staunchly conservative South Carolina Republicans will choose from four recognizable names and one political outsider in the gubernatorial primary on Tuesday in the race to succeed Gov. Henry McMaster. Polling has been tight for Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, state Attorney General Alan Wilson, U.S. Reps. Nancy Mace and Ralph Norman, and outsider Rom Reddy, the former Exxon Chemical manager turning around multiple companies through acquisition, restructure or sales. Last week’s decision by the president, however, may have changed the trajectory of the race. State House Rep. Jermaine Johnson is polling ahead of Mullins McLeod and Billy Webster among the Democrats. Appointed in 2017 to fill the vacancy created by former Gov. Nikki Haley going to the United Nations, McMaster won the limit of two consecutive terms in 2020 and 2024. He turned 79 last month and is the oldest to serve in the office. Evette led two polls released in four days this week – Tuesday’s from The Citadel and Friday’s from the Trafalgar Group. The second is notable because it came after an endorsement from second-term Republican President Donald Trump. In the former, she clipped Wilson and Mace 17%-16%, with Reddy (14%) and Norman (13%) trailing. In the latter Evette (26.3%) is decisively ahead of Reddy (17.2%), Wilson (16.9%), Norman (16.1%) and Mace (14.2%). The Citadel Poll, taken May 21-31, of 1,505 registered voters carries a +/- 3.2% margin of error. Thus, it’s a statistical tie for Evette, Wilson, Mace and Reddy. On May 21-24, Trafalgar had 1,125 respondents and a +/- 2.9% margin of error in a three-way dead heat poll for Evette (19.9%), Wilson (19.4%) and Reddy (19%). Evette is campaigning on standing by Trump and his “American First Agenda”; eliminating the state income tax; a DOGE-style proposal to launch SCOGE, the South Carolina Office of Government Efficiency; and accountability for elected officials and elections. Reddy has refused donations and declines endorsements in his “Something Different” campaign. His four-principle core is to restore God-given rights; honor the Constitution; selfless leadership; and end weaponized government. Wilson is campaigning on protection of families and communities, and their values. He hopes to lower taxes, empower parents in their child’s pursuit of education, has plans for infrastructure, and wants to expand access to rural healthcare. Norman bills his campaign as one to “clean up Columbia” and “knock down the corrupt political establishment once and for all.” Infrastructure, term limits, education, giving voters a choice on judges, and creation of a government efficiency arm for the state lead his top issues. Mace is the first female graduate of The Citadel, a distinct rise from high school dropout and working at Waffle House. She's mostly been an ally of Trump in the U.S. House, notably breaking away on foreign policy after America and Israel attacked Iran. Infrastructure, immigration, no state income tax, law and order, energy, protection of spaces for women and children, and advancement of school choice are top policy issues for Mace. The last Democrat to win the governor’s office, Jim Hodges in 1998, was also the last one-term governor. It’s all the way back to the 1978 and 1982 elections of Richard Wilson Riley to find the Democrat before Hodges. That's a definitive turn in the last half century of elections from those of 1868 through 1970. A Democrat won the governor’s race in each one.

The U.S. House Ethics Committee is and has always been dominated by men, which could limit its ability to police sexual misconduct. Women in Congress want that to change. It probably won’t.

La communauté scientifique lance l’alerte face aux conséquences d’une possible disparition de la plus grande base de données sur les catastrophes. Menacée de disparition après l’annulation de financements américains, EM-DAT est un outil méconnu, mais essentiel et utilisé par les gouvernements et institutions du monde entier pour évaluer les risques, les dommages et les vulnérabilités des pays aux catastrophes naturelles.

"Se ha decidido que Bilbao necesita un nuevo liderazgo", ha expuesto el propio regidor desde 2015, que ha venido arrastrando problemas de salud y que sufrió ya desgaste en las urnas en 2023Perfil - Aburto, el alcalde del PNV en Bilbao que quiere ahora mayoría absoluta con mano dura con los delincuentes Juan María Aburto Rike (Bilbao, 1961) no optará a continuar como alcalde de Bilbao en las elecciones de mayo de 2027. Después de once años al frente de la ciudad vasca más poblada, el principal cargo municipal del PNV no volverá a ser el candidato y “en pocas semanas”, según fuentes del partido, se iniciará el proceso interno para la elección de un nuevo cabeza de cartel. “Se ha decidido que Bilbao necesita un nuevo liderazgo”, ha dicho el propio Aburto en una comparecencia junto con el presidente del PNV en Bizkaia, Iñigo Ansola, y en la que ha destacado el “gran honor” de haber podido ocupar el cargo durante tres legislaturas. Casado y con dos hijos, Aburto accedió a la alcaldía en 2015 tras una etapa como consejero en el primer Gobierno de Iñigo Urkullu. Fue la persona elegida para relevar al fallecido Iñaki Azkuna tras el interregno de Ibon Areso, entre 2014 y 2015. Inició su trayectoria política en el área de Interior, con Juan María Atutxa, siguió en el área social de la Diputación vizcaína y, en 2011, pasó a ser portavoz foral y responsable de Presidencia. Fue a finales de 2012 cuando saltó al Ejecutivo vasco en una cartera con competencias de Empleo, sociales y de Vivienda. Aburto ganó las primeras municipales con cerca de un 40% de apoyos y 13 escaños de 29 y en 2019 todavía mejoró el registro sumando un decimocuarto concejal y llegando al 42%, casi la mayoría absoluta. En 2023, en cambio, su figura mostró desgaste, con una caída hasta el 36% y 12 ediles. Siempre ha gobernado en coalición con el PSE-EE. En los últimos años, Aburto se ha tenido que ausentar del cargo en varios períodos largos por bajas médicas. La última ha sido muy reciente. No ha terminado de superar sus problemas de salud. Amaia Arregi, su 'número dos', ha ejercido de alcaldesa en funciones en una ciudad que nunca ha elegido a una mujer al frente en democracia aunque sí tuvo una alcaldesa en el franquismo, Pilar Careaga. “Sabéis cómo soy. Me conocéis. Sabéis que lo he dado todo, dejándome incluso parte de mi salud”, ha manifestado el alcalde, que continuará en el puesto hasta que se produzca el relevo el año próximo y en la confianza de dejar las “llaves” de la villa a otra persona del PNV. Los nacionalistas tienen en Bilbao su gran feudo municipal. Es la única capital provincial en España que ha tenido siempre el mismo color político desde la recuperación de la democracia. Ahora, los trece 'batzokis' deberán votar a un nuevo candidato. La propuesta la lanzará un órgano llamado “interjuntas”, que reúne a representantes de esas trece organizaciones y al Bizkai Buru Batzar. Se espera que próximamente se active el proceso, aunque son ya meses en que en los mentideros internos se habla de posibles sustitutos o sustitutas. “Representas como nadie el compromiso con las personas: la cercanía, la atención, el interés, la complicidad, la generosidad con cada persona”, le ha regalado Ansola a Aburto. Aburto quiso ser alcalde de los barrios, pero también lo ha sido de los grandes eventos. Se han hecho series de Netflix, ha salido el Tour de Francia de la ciudad, ha habido finales de rugby o de fútbol y ahora se discute sobre la Copa del Mundo de 2030. El debate sobre la seguridad ha sido recurrente en su mandato, con alusiones a la “mano dura” pero también negándose a secundar el criterio de su partido de dar el origen nacional de los detenidos. La marcha de Aburto se suma al relevo en Donostia, aunque en este caso Eneko Goia dimitió mediada la legislatura y dejó que el nuevo candidato, Jon Insausti, se fuera dando a conocer desde el cargo de alcalde. En Vitoria, la también exconsejera de Urkullu Beatriz Artolazabal quedó en cuarta posición en 2023 y se da por hecho que se buscará una cara nueva, pero no hay noticias. El PNV sí ha confirmado ya la marcha de la alcaldesa de Getxo, Amaia Agirre, en medio de la investigación judicial por el derribo del Irurak Bat. Las forales coincidirán con las municipales, como siempre, y ahí se esperan menos cambios.

در حالی که برخی مقامها از بازگشت اینترنت بینالملل به وضعیت عادی سخن میگویند، گزارشها از بخش فناوری تصویر دیگری نشان میدهد. اینترنت کاربران خانگی با فیلترینگ بیشتر تا حدی برگشته، اما اینترنت مراکز داده یا دیتاسنترها همچنان با محدودیت روبهروست؛ جایی که قلب بسیاری از کسبوکارهای اینترنتی میتپد.
