        <![CDATA[<p>A NC Supreme Court 4-3 ruling has ended the 32-year Leandro school funding case. The majority (led by Chief Justice Newby) vacated a 2023 lower court order for $677M+ in new spending (potentially billions more), dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice, and ruled courts can&#39;t dictate education budgets to the legislature—calling it a separation of powers win amid major changes in NC schools since 1994. Dissenters argued it harms students&#39; constitutional right to sound basic education.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>In his primetime speech from the White House, Trump stated that U.S. &quot;core strategic objectives&quot; in Operation Epic Fury are &quot;nearing completion&quot; after 32 days. He described &quot;overwhelming victories,&quot; saying Iran&#39;s military capabilities (navy, air force, missiles) have been crippled and it is &quot;no longer a threat.&quot; </p>

<p>Trump warned the U.S. will &quot;hit them extremely hard&quot; over the next 2-3 weeks, potentially targeting electric grids to &quot;bring them back to the Stone Ages&quot; if no deal is reached. He framed the conflict as payback for decades of Iranian aggression, predicted it would end &quot;shortly,&quot; and urged allies to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. No new announcements on ground troops or exact timeline.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>Two controversies are rocking the New Hanover County Democratic Party. First, school board candidate Rick Southerland withdrew after backlash over undisclosed ties to a registered sex offender, James Osborne—who lived with him, helped campaign, and is now facing charges for illegal voting.</p>

<p>Second, party leaders are dealing with allegations against David Andrews, the husband of a Wilmington city councilwoman and a Democratic precinct chair, accused of sexual harassment and aggressive behavior at party events. The county party has filed a formal grievance seeking his removal and a ban from future activities.</p>
