Why Arizona's GOP Primaries Are Crucial for November Elections New

Why Arizona's GOP Primaries Are Crucial for November Elections

Arizona voters are heading to the polls tonight for the state’s primary election, a critical early test in one of America’s premier battleground states ahead of the November midterms.Polls close at 7 p.m. local time, with results expected to begin rolling in shortly after.This primary will determine Republican nominees to challenge Democratic incumbents in key statewide offices and settle crowded races for an open congressional seat that could influence control of the U.S. House.With Arizona still reeling from tight 2022 races and ongoing debates over border security, election integrity, education, and economic growth, tonight’s outcomes carry major implications for November 3.The marquee race is the Republican primary for governor. U.S. Rep. Andy Biggs, a conservative stalwart and former Freedom Caucus chairman, enters as the clear frontrunner with a strong endorsement from President Donald Trump.Advertisement Biggs faces limited opposition from fellow Rep. David Schweikert in a contest that has lacked major drama since Trump’s backing effectively cleared the field.Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs is running unopposed for renomination after her razor-thin 2022 victory over Kari Lake.Hobbs won by less than 1 percent in a race that highlighted deep divisions over election administration and border policy.A Biggs victory tonight would energize the Republican base and set up a high-profile rematch dynamic against Hobbs.Conservatives argue Hobbs has been weak on border security and crime, while Biggs promises a return to law-and-order priorities and fiscal responsibility.The winner will also select a lieutenant governor running mate for the general election under Arizona’s new joint-ticket system.Republicans are also choosing their nominee to take on Democratic Attorney General Kris Mayes, who squeaked into office in 2022 by fewer than 300 votes.The GOP primary pits Arizona Senate President Warren Petersen against attorney Rodney Glassman.Petersen has positioned himself as a fighter for election integrity and against what conservatives call overreach by the current AG.Mayes has drawn fire from the right for her aggressive legal actions and vocal opposition to Trump-era policies.The AG’s office wields significant power over lawsuits, consumer protection, and election oversight — making this race a bellwether for how Arizona will handle legal fights heading into 2028.In the race for Secretary of State, Republicans Alexander Kolodin and Gina Swoboda are battling over who will best safeguard election integrity against Democratic incumbent Adrian Fontes.Both GOP contenders emphasize transparency and security measures that voters have demanded since 2020.The primary superintendent of public instruction will narrow a competitive field.Education remains a flashpoint, with parents and conservatives pushing back against what they see as progressive indoctrination in schools and demanding more parental rights and school choice.One of the most watched races is the open 1st Congressional District, vacated by Rep. David Schweikert as he runs for governor.This affluent, swingy district covering north Phoenix and Scottsdale has drawn heavy spending and competitive primaries on both sides.On the Republican side, former NFL kicker Jay Feely — backed by President Trump — faces former state Rep. Joseph Chaplik and businessman John Trobough.The winner in November will hold one of the most competitive House seats in the country. Republicans see it as a pickup opportunity; Democrats view it as a must-hold to protect their narrow margins.Arizona remains a true swing state. Tonight’s primary will reveal which candidates can mobilize the base and appeal to independents on core issues: securing the border, lowering costs, protecting elections, and reforming education.A strong showing by Trump-endorsed conservatives like Biggs and Feely would signal momentum for Republicans heading into November.Flipping the governor’s office and the AG’s office would give the GOP unified control of key levers in a state that decides close national races.House results in districts like AZ-1 and AZ-6 could help determine whether Republicans expand or defend their majority in Congress.This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.

Vivienne Jolie-Pitt's Surprising Move to Drop 'Pitt' from Her Name New

Vivienne Jolie-Pitt's Surprising Move to Drop 'Pitt' from Her Name

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Vivienne Jolie-Pitt has filed to legally drop “Pitt” from her last name.Viivienne, 18, submitted paperwork in Los Angeles Superior Court requesting that her legal name be changed from Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt to Vivienne Marcheline Jolie. Marcheline Bertrand is the name of Jolie’s late mom, who died in 2007 after a battle with ovarian and breast cancer.In court docs obtained by Page Six, Vivienne lists the reason as “personal.”Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, the 18-year-old daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (pictured above in December 2011), has filed to legally drop “Pitt” from her last name. WireImageIf the request is granted, Vivienne will legally be known as Vivienne Marcheline Jolie. She’s pictured here last month. NORTH-SUNSET / BACKGRIDAmid the filing, a source exclusively told Page Six, “This is what complete and total parental alienation looks like — it’s awful, deliberate and unnecessary, only serving the interest of the parent feeling some perverse pleasure at excluding another caring parent from her children’s lives.”A source previously told Page Six, “If Brad isn’t close to the kids, it’s because of the harm that was done. The children are now adults and make their own decisions, which deserve respect. If they choose to distance themselves from him, it comes from that pain and harm.”The filings mark the latest development in the years-long family rift that has unfolded since Pitt and Jolie’s highly publicized split in 2016.The “Fight Club” star, 62, and the “Maleficent” actress, 51, finalized their divorce in December 2024, ending more than eight years of legal proceedings after Jolie filed to dissolve their marriage in September 2016.The former couple share six children: Maddox, 24, Pax, 22, Zahara, 21, Shiloh, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne.Vivienne (third from left) submitted paperwork in Los Angeles Superior Court, according to court documents obtained by Page Six. Getty Images for NetflixThe “Fight Club” star and the “Maleficent” actress, pictured above in January 2009, finalized their divorce in December 2024. Getty ImagesSeveral of the siblings have already taken similar steps.Shiloh successfully petitioned a Los Angeles court in May 2024 to remove “Pitt” from her last name shortly after turning 18.Maddox also filed legal paperwork in May 2026 seeking to drop “Pitt” from his surname, citing personal reasons in court documents. Prior to filing, he had already begun using “Maddox Jolie” professionally, including in the credits for the film “Couture,” on which he worked as an assistant director while his mother starred.On June 9, Zahara filed paperwork requesting to legally change her name from Zahara Jolie-Pitt to Zahara Jolie.Knox had also appeared to distance himself from the Pitt surname before his twin’s filing.As Page Six exclusively reported in June, the teenager used the name “Knox Jolie” on his high school diploma after graduating from Fusion Academy in Los Angeles.Several of the siblings have already taken similar steps. (Pictured above in October 2021) Tim P. Whitby/Getty ImagesPage Six exclusively reported in June that Knox used the name “Knox Jolie” on his high school diploma after graduating from Fusion Academy in Los Angeles. But he has not filed any legal paperwork to change his name. Terma, SL / BACKGRIDIn June, Zahara, pictured in January 2025, filed paperwork requesting to legally change her name from Zahara Jolie-Pitt to Zahara Jolie. FilmMagicA source told Page Six at the time that Knox celebrated the milestone alongside Jolie, his older siblings Pax and Zahara, and his twin sister, Vivienne.Vivienne similarly dropped her father’s last name publicly in May 2024 when she was credited as “Vivienne Jolie” in the Playbill for the Broadway production of “The Outsiders,” which she helped her mother produce.Meanwhile, Pax remains close with members of the “F1” star’s extended family despite having a strained relationship with the Oscar winner.Maddox, pictured in September 2024, filed legal paperwork in May seeking to drop “Pitt” from his surname, citing personal reasons in court documents.  GC ImagesPax, pictured above in November 2021, remains close with members of the “F1” star’s extended family despite having a strained relationship with Brad. Getty Images“Pax still has a relationship with his dad’s side of the family and continues to spend time with them,” a source exclusively told Page Six last month. “He recently joined his family as they went out to dinner and celebrated his cousin Sydney’s engagement to Archimede Jerome.”According to the insider, Pitt’s sister, Julie Pitt Neal, also attended the gathering, along with his niece Reagan Pitt and numerous other relatives.However, a second source told Page Six that while Pax “still has a relationship” with his paternal relatives, he “doesn’t have much of a relationship with Brad.”Representatives for Pitt and Jolie did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

Worldwide Travel Warning: Why Americans Are Urged to Stay Alert New

Worldwide Travel Warning: Why Americans Are Urged to Stay Alert

The U.S. Department of State has issued a “worldwide caution alert” for American citizens, mainly in the Middle East, amid an escalation in tensions in the region.In a statement updated on July 20, the agency said that the “security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation” due to fighting in the Middle East.“Iran and groups supportive of Iran may target other U.S. interests overseas or at locations associated with the United States and Americans throughout the world,” the alert stated.Primarily for Americans in the Middle EastOn July 21, the department told U.S. citizens in the Middle East to “exercise caution and heightened vigilance” amid possible airspace closures, travel disruptions, and canceled flights. The alert did not name any specific country.Those Americans were advised to monitor information from local officials, local news, or embassy or consular alerts. It noted that consular and diplomatic facilities inside and outside the Middle East have been targeted in recent days.Related StoriesU.S. citizens who are outside the Middle East shouldn’t travel there, or through the region, it said.Escalation in US-Iran ConflictThe latest caution alert came as U.S. and Iranian forces continued to launch strikes in the Middle East and as three American service members were killed in Iraq and Jordan in recent days.The U.S. military confirmed late on Monday a series of strikes on Iranian military command centers, missile and drone launch sites, maritime capabilities and air defense systems. Iran responded with attacks on Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait.During remarks alongside the president of Lebanon, U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House Tuesday that he has no plans to stop the current military campaign against Iran. The U.S. military will soon strike an Iranian nuclear site known as Pickaxe Mountain “very heavily,” he said.Not the First TimeThe State Department issued a worldwide alert in March amid fighting between the United States and Iran, which came after U.S.-Israeli strikes killed dozens of top Iranian leaders.Separately, the department sent out a similar warning in late May about U.S. citizens who at the time had traveled in Congo, South Sudan, or Uganda due to an outbreak of the Ebola virus.Last summer, a worldwide alert was issued due to a “conflict between Israel and Iran” that “resulted in disruptions to travel and periodic closure of airspace across the Middle East.” It came as American and Israeli military forces attacked Iranian nuclear sites in “Operation Midnight Hammer.”During the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel, the State Department issued a worldwide caution notice for Americans to be aware of possible anti-U.S. protests or terrorism.Countries With ‘Level 4’ AlertsThe State Department’s Travel.gov provided an update on social media this past week that nearly two dozen countries are under a “Level 4 - Do Not Travel” advisory, the highest issued by the department.Those countries are Afghanistan, Belarus, Burkina Faso, Burma, Central African Republic (CAR), Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Haiti, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Mali, Niger, North Korea, Russia, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Uganda, Ukraine, and Yemen.The agency wrote: “We assign Level 4 based on local conditions and/or our limited ability to help Americans there. These places are dangerous. Do not go for ANY reason.”While Mexico was not listed by the travel agency, several areas are under Level 4 advisories, including Colima, Guerrero, Michoacan, Sinaloa, Tamaulipas, and Zacatecas states. Overall, Mexico is under a Level 2 advisory, meaning to “exercise increased caution.”The Level 4 advisories in Mexico were given due to high crime, kidnappings, and terrorism.

Will Kosovo's Military Transformation Bring It Closer to NATO? New

Will Kosovo's Military Transformation Bring It Closer to NATO?

21:45 | 21 Korrik 2026 Në vitin 2028 pritet të përmbyllet një nga proceset më të rëndësishme për sektorin e sigurisë në Kosovë. Tranzicioni dhjetëvjeçar i Forcës në një forcë moderne mbrojtëse me kapacitete të plota ushtarake.Gjatë kësaj periudhe, FSK-ja ka zgjeruar misionin, ka rritur numrin e pjesëtarëve, ka investuar në pajisje dhe trajnime, si dhe ka intensifikuar bashkëpunimin me vendet anëtare të NATO-s. Pjesëmarrja në misione ndërkombëtare siç është ai në Gazë dhe ngritja e kapaciteteve operacionale konsiderohen ndër arritjet kryesore të këtij transformimi.Por, a e afron përfundimi i këtij procesi Kosovën me anëtarësimin në NATO?Ish-gjeneralët e FSK-së vlerësojnë se, në aspektin ushtarak, Kosova po i afrohet gjithnjë e më shumë standardeve të Aleancës Veri-Atlantike. Megjithatë, Kadri Kastrati, thekson se buxheti i ndarë për blerjen e armatimit të rëndë në këto dy vite duhet të jetë më i madh.“Këto dy vite e gjysmë sa kanë mbetë deri në fund të vitit 2028, kjo qeveri ose qeveria e ardhshme duhet të investojë më shumë buxhet në përmbushjen e gjitha detyrimeve bazuar në planin 10 vjeçar zhvillimor”, tha për RTK, Kadri Kastrati, ish-gjeneral i FSK-së.Megjithatë, njohësit e sigurisë theksojnë se rruga drejt NATO-s nuk varet vetëm nga kapacitetet e FSK-së, por edhe nga vendimet politike të vendeve anëtare. Kosova duhet të sigurojë miratimin unanim të tyre, ndërsa sfidë mbetet fakti se disa shtete të Aleancës ende nuk e njohin pavarësinë e vendit.“Kjo është pengesa dhe barriera ndoshta e vetmja por duhet të punohet politikisht dhe diplomatike që të gjendet një mundësi ose mënyrë që ose ato vende brenda dy vjetëve ta njohin Kosovës ose të bëhet një kompromis in specia për të pranuar Kosovën në NATO në mënyrë që Kosova të jetë anëtar i barabartë sepse edhe interesi i NATO-s është ta ketë Kosovën në gjirin e vet”, tha Fatmir Çollaku, njohës i çështjeve të sigurisëTë tjerë njohës të sigurisë vlerësojnë se pjesëmarrja e FSK-së në Forcën Ndërkombëtare Stabilizuese në Gazë forcon argumentet e Kosovës për afrim me NATO-n dhe Partneritetin për Paqe.“Mendoj që kjo i jep performancë të veçant dhe shtyrje nga partnerët tonë sidomos lidershipin e NATO i jep një mundësi që FSK të kaloj shumë ma lehtë pas fazë së tranzicionit të hymë në fazë për Partneritet për Paqe në kuadër të NATO-së”, tha Nuredin Ibishi, njohës i çështjeve të sigurisë.Viti 2028 shënon edhe përfundimin e transformimit të FSK-së dhe hapjen e një etape të re drejt integrimit euroatlantik. Megjithatë, avancimi drejt NATO-s do të varet jo vetëm nga kapacitetet e FSK-së, por edhe nga vullneti politik i vendeve aleate
