Redistricting Battles Heat Up After Supreme Court Ruling Authored by Jackson Richman via The Epoch Times, The U.S. Supreme Court’s recent landmark ruling on redistricting has prompted lawmakers in multiple states to reconsider their electoral maps ahead of the 2026 midterms. The decision, issued on April 29, focused on a congressional map that Louisiana drew after a lower court stated that a prior map violated the Voting Rights Act. That law prohibits race-based discrimination in election practices. The lower court stated that Louisiana’s initial map discriminated against black people by not including an additional majority-black district. The Supreme Court’s recent decision in Louisiana v. Callais stated that the lower court decision, which resulted in Louisiana drawing a new map, erred. A majority of the justices said race could not be a primary consideration when states draw maps for elections. The ruling has caused states, particularly in the South, to redraw their congressional maps ahead of the midterms. Since Texas redrew its House districts to favor Republicans last year, eight states have adopted new congressional maps. Republicans believe the changes could net them as many as 13 seats, while Democrats estimate they could gain up to 10. Still, some of the newly drawn districts are expected to be competitive in November, potentially limiting the gains either party hopes to achieve. Here is the latest on the redistricting battles nationwide. Louisiana After the Supreme Court decision, Louisiana politicians said their current map was unconstitutional and therefore shouldn’t be used in upcoming elections. Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry quickly suspended the state’s primary for U.S. House elections, set for May 16. “Yesterday’s historic Supreme Court victory for Louisiana has an immediate consequence for the state,” Landry and state Attorney General Liz Murrill said in an April 30 statement posted on social media. Louisiana requested a quicker-than-usual judgment fr...

The 40th edition of the EFL playoffs started not so much with a bang, but with the kind of tension-filled evenings we have come to expect from the business end of the season. And at the end of a gripping evening in East Yorkshire, the respective Premier League dreams of both Hull and Millwall remains alive before rivalries being renewed in south London on Monday night. At half-time in two-legged ties like these, it is perhaps common to take stock and assess who is better placed to get the job done and reach the final. The smart answer here would be Millwall, given they head back south level at 0-0 in the tie and they have the chance to get the job done in front of their own fans. Continue reading...

Most enterprise security programs were built to protect servers, endpoints, and cloud accounts. None of them was built to find a customer intake form that a product manager vibe coded on Lovable over a weekend, connected to a live Supabase database, and deployed on a public URL indexed by Google. That gap now has a price tag. New research from Israeli cybersecurity firm RedAccess quantifies the scale. The firm discovered 380,000 publicly accessible assets, including applications, databases, and related infrastructure, built with vibe coding tools from Lovable, Base44, and Replit, as well as deployment platform Netlify. Roughly 5,000 of those assets, about 1.3%, contained sensitive corporate information. CEO Dor Zvi said his team found the exposure while researching shadow AI for customers. Axios independently verified multiple exposed apps, and Wired confirmed the findings separately. Among the verified exposures: a shipping company app detailed which vessels were expected at which ports. An internal health company application listed active clinical trials across the U.K. Full, unredacted customer service conversations for a British cabinet supplier sat on the open web. Internal financial information for a Brazilian bank was accessible to anyone who found the URL. The exposed data also included patient conversations at a children’s long-term care facility, hospital doctor-patient summaries, incident response records at a security company, and ad purchasing strategies. Depending on jurisdiction and the data involved, the healthcare and financial exposures may trigger regulatory obligations under HIPAA, UK GDPR, or Brazil’s LGPD. RedAccess found phishing sites built on Lovable that impersonated Bank of America, FedEx, Trader Joe’s, and McDonald’s. Lovable said it had begun investigating and removing the phishing sites. The defaults are the problem Privacy settings on several vibe coding platforms make apps publicly accessible unless users manually switch them to priva...

Spencer Platt/Getty Images News NEW YORK (May 8) - The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) today reported 115,000 new private sector jobs were created in April, according to the Establishment Survey , a collection of job creation data from businesses replying to the survey. The print well exceeded the consensus estimate of 65,000. Government reduced the number of jobs it provided by 8,000, according to the report, so that total nonfarm private sector jobs printed at 123,000. February and March revisions resulted in a net 16,000 fewer jobs. For the three months from February, 2026, average monthly jobs creation has been just a moribund 48,000 jobs per month, affirming our view in prior jobs and GDP reports that economic growth is tepid, at best. The BLS’s Household Survey , which polls the number of people taking jobs, and is viewed as eliminating workers holding more than one job, printed worse than the Establishment Survey, showing 226,000 jobs lost. The unemployment rate held steady 4.3%, but the U6 rate hit 8.2%, up 20 bps. The “U6” is the percentage of the population that is unemployed, plus all persons marginally attached to the labor force, plus total employed part time for economic reasons, plus all persons marginally attached to the labor force. Some 92,000 people left the civilian labor force. The Labor Force Participation Rate , as measured by the Household Data, fell to just 61.8%, the lowest since, October, 2021 .
