A tale of two locals. News and Observer cite Court Watch’s scoop with credit. WRAL doesn’t cite and adorably forgets to take off the Court Watch tracking link to the criminal complaint in their story while doing so.

never heard/written about this…but: she’s been doing ‘fairy hair’ for years. after a complaint to a state board, officials say she may need an expensive (and time consuming) hair care license. it sent inspectors to places she was working too: newsobserver.com/news/local/art…

A man heading back to Chapel Hill took a wrong turn that landed him at a Fort Bragg gate. He was handed off to ICE and is now in a detention center in Georgia. At least 10 people have been detained the same way at NC military checkpoints. my latest: newsobserver.com/news/state/nor…

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.

It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

An NC-based professor relies on a landline to confirm his relatives in Tehran and Isfahan are alive. Iranians “really do feel themselves caught between the oppressive nature of their government and lethal warmongering,” he told @newsobserver. from me: newsobserver.com/herald-sun/dur…
