Rep. Julia Howard
In case you missed it, the editorial pages of multiple major news outlets across the state are decrying North Carolina House Speaker Tim Moore’s recent remarkable decision to strip his fellow Republican lawmaker Rep. Julia Howard of her position as co-chair of the powerful House Finance Committee.
As you’ve probably heard by now, Moore took the extremely unusual action in response to Howard’s opposition to a controversial proposal that would bestow tax breaks on people who received federal Paycheck Protection Program loans in response to the COVID-19 recession. Among other things, Howard has expressed concern that several lawmakers stand to benefit directly from the bill. The battle was mostly fought out in secret in the House Republican caucus, but later came at least partially to light in public.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – According to the Downdetector website, there’s been an increase in reported outages for some Google products, including Drive, Gmail, and Workspace in the Raleigh metropolitan area, in the past 24 hours.
That includes an outage reported by Capitol Broadcasting Company, the parent company of WRAL TechWire, which reported an outage shortly after 7 a.m. and notified employees that users were unable to consistently reach any Google site. Included were search, Youtube, Gmail, and locations hosted by Google Sites.
According to a member of the IT – Service Desk team at Capitol Broadcasting who is monitoring the reported issues, the internet along the entire east coast seems to be getting even more unstable as more services are shifting loads, and that other websites that may seem unrelated to Google but may have Google Analytics code embedded within them are also loading more slowly than normal.
