Court, Fed, Space, and AI Updates | Durham News

The Supreme Court just blocked Trump’s bid to restrict mail-in ballots, preserving a voting method used by nearly a third of voters — a major victory for election access amid near-zero fraud evidence. Meanwhile, a federal whistleblower warns of a secret Trump-era push to hunt non-citizen voters, with officials allegedly misusing voter tools in ways that could violate state laws. Economically, the Fed is poised to raise rates for the first time in three years to fight inflation — directly opposing Trump’s call for cuts.
