NEWS BRIEFING

House to restart hurricane recovery committee Raleigh The state House is reconstituting an oversight committee that will keep monitoring challenges state government has had in distributing federal long-term housing grants to hurricane victims in eastern North Carolina. House Speaker Tim Moore announced Tuesday that the House Select Committee on Disaster Relief has been authorized to meet again.

Environmentalists sue over offshore drilling rules New Orleans National groups including Earthjustice and the Sierra Club and groups on the Gulf and Carolina coasts filed a federal lawsuit Tuesday in San Francisco. They say the federal agency created to oversee offshore drilling safety acted before some rules took effect. Interior Secretary David Bernhardt said in March that the changes would eliminate unnecessary regulation while keeping safety and environmental protection.

Record week of overdoses has city running low on naloxone Elizabeth City First responders say a record number of heroin overdoses in Elizabeth City is depleting the supply of a drug used to revive patients. As of Monday, 12 people had overdosed in a week in the Elizabeth City area, including two people who died. Pasquotank-Camden Emergency Medical Services Chief Jerry Newell says crews delivered doses of naloxone in each case. Naloxone is a drug that reverses the effects of an overdose. It costs emergency agencies about $60 to buy one dose of naloxone.

North Carolina Republican Party hits ‘reset,’ elects new chairman

By A.P. Dillon North State Journal CONCORD — Michael Whatley’s “Reset in Raleigh” campaign slogan resonated with North Carolina Republican Party members at their annual conventions this past weekend, electing him to be their new chairman.

“This is victory for all our North Carolina Republican activists this weekend,” Chairman-Elect Michael Whatley said in a statement.

“As we enter the most important election cycle in our lifetime,” said Whatley. “We’ll hit the ground running building the Party infrastructure, fundraising, and training volunteers in order to re-elect President Trump and deliver for all of our candidates up and down the ballot.”

In the week leading up to the vote, Whatley picked up high-profile national level endorsements from U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke.

Whatley hails from Gaston County and is an energy consultant with HBW Resources LLC, an oil and energy consulting firm with multiple locations, including one in Charlotte. Whatley is also the executive director of the Consumer Energy Alliance, an energy policy advocacy group headquartered in Houston, Texas.

The journey into politics for Whatley began in 1984 as a vol-

unteer for U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms’ campaign. He later served President Bush as a senior official at the Department of Energy and was chief of staff for U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole. In 2016, Whatley helped organize Trump rallies across the state.

Whatley’s “reset” campaign theme was like that of Jim Womack, who campaigned to “revive” and reunify the party.

It had been a three-way race between Whatley, Jim Womack and John Lewis, but the vote count revealed a two-way race between Whatley and Womack. When it came down to voting, Whatley came in ahead with over 50% of the vote to Womack’s 45%. Lewis was a distant third with around 4.24% of the vote.

Womack, a former Lee County commissioner, ran against Robin Hayes in 2017. A West Point graduate and an Army veteran with 20 years of service, Womack worked in state government in the Information Technology department before joining a private IT company.

Lewis had been serving as the assistant legal counsel to the State Board of Elections but left to take the role of General Counsel for the NC GOP after the party’s long-time legal counsel, Tom Stark, passed away suddenly in December of 2018. Lewis ran on a platform that included a bigger focus on Senate and judicial contests in 2020.

Hurricane fund distribution broke law

By Amanda Morris TheAssociated Press RALEIGH — The N.C. Department of Public Safety broke the law and didn’t follow legislative directives when distributing $9 million of state money after Hurricane Matthew hit in 2016, according to a report Monday from the General Assembly’s government watchdog agency.

The report — the second in three weeks by the Program Evaluation Division questioning how Matthew recovery funds have been handled — determined a lump-sum, upfront $5.35 million payment to one grant recipient violated state law, which says funds must be distributed in

smaller incremental payments.

The grant recipient in question, the nonprofit North Carolina Community Development Initiative, then used money intended for emergency shelter and short-term housing to fund new construction projects, buy land for future development and fund mixed-use development, the report says.

Instead of going directly to help hurricane survivors, the report says, some state money allocated by the nonprofit benefited private developers and landlords.

Cooper’s veto of ‘born alive’ bill stands

By David Larson North State Journal RALEIGH — Republicans in the N.C. House were unable to achieve the three-fifths vote necessary to override Gov. Roy Cooper’s veto of S.B. 359, the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. The override vote, at 67-53, fell five votes short of the 72 required, handing abortion advocates a victory after a series of recent national setbacks in states like Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Ohio and Wisconsin.

Republicans argued the bill was not about abortion, but only about protecting those already alive outside the womb.

“Regardless of whether someone considers themselves pro-choice or pro-life, this is something we should all be behind,” Speaker Tim Moore (R-Cleveland) said in a statement. “Any civilized society should make sure that a child that is born deserves the same medical care as any other human being.”

To make this point, GOP leaders invited two women who survived abortions, Gianna Jensen and Claire Culwell, to speak in a press conference the day of the final override vote.

“I was born in an abortion clinic in Los Angeles at 6 o’clock in the morning and my medical records do state ‘born during a saline abortion, April 6, 1977, 2½ pounds, 29½ weeks, no resuscitation required upon arrival at the hospital,’” Jensen said. “The only reason I was not strangled or suffocated or left to die was because the abortionist wasn’t at work yet.”

The other woman, Culwell, lives with disabilities after being born at just three pounds, following an abortion attempt that was only fully successful on her twin.

Democrats rejected this line of reasoning, saying N.C. doctors are already regulated by See BORN ALIVE, page A2

Broad legalization cuts into medical marijuana market

By Gillian Flaccus The Associated Press PORTLAND, Ore. — When states legalize pot for all adults, long-standing medical marijuana programs take a big hit, in some cases losing more than half their registered patients in just a few years, according to a data analysis

by The Associated Press.

Much of the decline comes from consumers who, ill or not, got medical cards in their states because it was the only way to buy marijuana legally and then discarded them when broader legalization arrived.

But for people who truly rely on marijuana to control ailments such as nausea or cancer pain , the arrival of so-called recreational cannabis can mean fewer and more expensive options.

Robin Beverett, a 47-year-old disabled Army veteran, said she resumed taking a powerful prescription mood stabilizer to control her anxiety and PTSD when the cost of her medical marijuana nearly tripled after California began general sales. Before last year, an eighth of an ounce of dry marijuana flower cost her $35. Now it’s approaching $100, Beverett said.

“It’s ridiculous. The prices are astronomical,” said Beverett, who moved to Sacramento from Texas because medical marijuana is illegal there. “Going to the dispensary is just out of the question if you’re on any kind of fixed income.”

It’s a paradox playing out nationwide as more states take the leap from care-centered medical programs to recreational models aligned with a multibillion-dollar global industry.

States see a “massive exodus” of medical patients when they legalize marijuana for all adults — and then, in many cases, the remaining ones struggle, said David Mangone, director of government affairs for Americans for Safe Access.

“Some of the products that these patients have relied on for consistency — and have used over and over for years — are disappearing off the shelves to market products that have a wider appeal,” he said.

Cost also rises, a problem that’s compounded because many of

medical boards and physicians aren’t neglecting newborns.

“By practice, and according to the law of North Carolina, as well as federal law, all living infants in North Carolina are legally entitled to the care that they need,” said Democratic Rep. Deb Butler of New Hanover County, the only legislator Wednesday to speak against the bill. The measure, she said, would have created “division between caregiver and patient.”

The Senate voted to override Cooper’s veto in April, but both chambers were required to override the governor’s veto.

“We are obviously horrified this veto override failed,” said primary House sponsor Rep. Pat McElraft (R-Carteret). In floor statements, McElraft told of her experiences as a nurse, seeing and hearing evidence of the practice of born alive infants being killed or left to die.

Hayes who was indicated in April on federal charges in connection with a bribery and wire fraud case involving North Carolina’s largest political donor, Eli Global’s chairman and founder Greg Lindberg.

The indictment charges Hayes, along with Lindberg and two other associates, of conspiracy to commit honest services wire fraud and bribery in connection with programs receiving federal funds.

Hayes was also charged with aiding and abetting and with making false statements to the FBI. Near the beginning of 2019, Hayes had signaled he would run again for the chairman post, but on the first of April, Hayes reversed course, issuing a statement that he would not run for the chair position again in June. On April 2, Hayes was indicted in the Lindberg case.

Joining Whatley on the leadership team is Miriam Chu, of Moore County, who was elected as vice chair.

“I can’t wait to get started working on behalf of North Carolina Republicans,” said Chu in a statement. “I look forward to working with Chairman-Elect Whatley in what will be the most important election cycle of our lives. We win when we work together.”

was inadvertent due to ignorance about the law, and that the questioned spending still was designated for affordable housing projects in hurricane-ravaged areas.

“They needed a housing solution. Honestly I felt like the General Assembly would’ve wanted me to use the funding in this manner,” Sprayberry told lawmakers reviewing the report. He said the money helped “hundreds of people get into a housing solution where they’ve got no place else to go.”

Rather than allocating money for emergency shelter, Sprayberry said the Department of Public Safety’s Division of Emergency Management needed more funds for reconstruction and new construction of affordable housing.

Some legislators on the Program Evaluation Oversight Committee, such as Democratic Rep. Becky Carney of Mecklenburg County, acknowledged emergency management’s efforts to be transparent and help as many people as possible following what was then unprecedented flooding.

“They were doing the best they could. Can they do better? They’re acknowledging that,” Carney said.

“I for one think they’ve done an incredible job.”

In this April 12, 2019, photo, Erich Berkovitz, owner of a medical marijuana processing company called PharmaEx LLC, holds a glass tray coated with hash oil, also called live resin, after extracting the material from raw marijuana plants and processing it at his lab in Rickreall, Ore. those who stay in medical programs are low-income and rely on Social Security disability, he said.

In Oregon, where the medical program shrank the most following recreational legalization, nearly two-thirds of patients gave up their medical cards, the AP found.

As patients exited, the market followed: The number of medical-only retail shops fell from 400 to two, and hundreds of growers who contracted with individual patients to grow specific strains walked away.

Now, some of the roughly 28,000 medical patients left are struggling to find affordable medical marijuana products they’ve relied on for years. While the state is awash in dry marijuana flower that’s dirt cheap, the specialized oils, tinctures and potent edibles used to alleviate severe illnesses can be harder to find and more expensive to buy.

“Lots of people have started trying to figure out how to make these concentrates and edibles themselves in their kitchen,” said Travis MacKenzie, who runs TJ’s Gardens, which provides free medical cannabis to children with epilepsy. “There are things that we don’t

really want people to do at home, but the market conditions are such that people are trying to do more at home.”

The numbers compiled by the AP through public records requests and publicly available documents provide a snapshot of the evolution of marijuana as more states — Michigan was last in the door, and Illinois is about to follow — legalize pot for all adults.

Ten states have both medical and recreational markets. Four of them — Oregon, Nevada, Colorado, Alaska — have the combination of an established recreational marketplace and data on medical patients. The AP analysis found all four saw a drop in medical patients after broader legalization.

In Alaska, the state with the second-biggest decline, medical cardholders dropped by 63% after recreational sales began in 2016, followed by Nevada with nearly 40% since 2017 and Colorado with 19% since 2014.

The largest of all the legal markets, California, doesn’t keep data on medical patients, but those who use it say their community has been in turmoil since recreational

The “born alive” measure would have directed health care practitioners to grant newborns delivered after an abortion the same protections as other patients. Violators would have faced prison time and fines.

“It’s important to protect the lives of all children, and laws already exist to protect newborn babies,” Cooper’s office said in a statement released after the vote.

“Instead of passing unnecessary legislation for political purposes we need to move on from divisive social issues and focus on the needs of North Carolina families: education, health care and good-paying jobs.”

The North Carolina House vote reflected the new partisan makeup of the House and Senate chambers since January, when six years of veto-proof GOP majorities ended after Democratic gains in November. Now, Republicans must get help from Democrats to override Cooper’s vetoes.

Although four House Demo-

crats initially voted for the “Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act” in April, only two of them stuck with the measure during the override vote — Reps. Charles Graham of Robeson County and Garland Pierce of Scotland County. Republicans in the state Senate needed to capture the vote of just one Democrat for an override, which they did soon after the abortion veto.

But that Senate Democrat, Don Davis of Greene County, was immediately targeted by abortion advocates for a primary next year — something that may have dissuaded any House Democrats on the fence.

The vote occurred as supporters and opponents packed the House gallery. Some people seeking the override wore lapel stickers reading “I Vote Pro-Life,” while others backing Cooper’s veto wore pink, some with T-shirts saying “Protect Safe, Legal Abortion.”

Still, the frequency of doctors

pot debuted last year. That’s partly because the state ended unlicensed cannabis cooperatives where patients shared their homegrown pot for free.

There is limited scientific data backing many of the health claims made by medical marijuana advocates, and the U.S. government still classifies cannabis in any form as a controlled substance like LSD and cocaine.

Still, the popularity of medical pot is rising as more states legalize it. There are 33 such states, including the politically conservative recent additions of Oklahoma and Utah. Oklahoma has among the more liberal guidelines for use and has approved more than 100,000 patient licenses since voters backed legalization last June.

Getting a precise nationwide count of medical patients is impossible because California, Washington and Maine don’t keep data.

However, absent those states, the AP found at the end of last year nearly 1.4 million people were active patients in a medical marijuana program. The AP estimates if those states were added the number would increase by about 1 million.

As more states legalize marijuana for all adults, some who have been using it medically are feeling disenfranchised.

In Michigan, where medical marijuana has been legal for over a decade, the creation of a new licensing system for medical dispensaries has sparked court challenges as the state prepares for the advent of general marijuana sales later this year. In Washington, medical patients feel they were pushed aside when that state merged its medical and general-use markets, which also is what’s happening in California. Los Angeles dispensary owner Jerred Kiloh sells medical and recreational marijuana and said those markets are quickly becoming one, since few companies are going to produce products for a vanishing group of customers.

He said his medical business has dipped to 7% of overall sales and is dropping month to month.

“It’s going to be gone,” said Kiloh.

neglecting these live infants is unclear.

Republican lawmakers and pro-life activists often cited a CDC study of infant deaths from 2003 to 2014, which showed that 143 of the 588 deaths marked as terminations of pregnancy “could definitively be classified as involving an induced termination” after birth.

Because many states, including North Carolina, do not have reporting requirements, supporters of S.B. 359 say the numbers are likely much larger and the law was necessary to protect infants in these “born alive” situations.

U.S. District Judge William Osteen ruled in March that North Carolina’s 20-week abortion ban was unconstitutional, an action Republicans point to as evidence that late-term abortions now need more regulations in the state.

1st woman to take command of a US Army infantry division The Associated Press

CORY MORSE | THE GRAND RAPIDS PRESS VIA AP

U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, R-Cascade Township, holds a town hall meeting at Grand Rapids Christian High School’s DeVos Center for Arts and Worship on Tuesday, May 28, 2019.

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. — The California National Guard has announced the appointment of the first woman to lead a U.S. Army infantry division.

Brig. Gen. Laura Yeager will take command of the 40th Infantry Division on June 29 at Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos, California.

Yeager currently commands Joint Task Force North, U.S. Northern Command at Fort Bliss, Texas.

Yeager was commissioned in 1986 as a second lieutenant from the Reserve Officer Training Corps at California State University, Long Beach.

She served as UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter pilot, left active duty when her son was born and continued her military career in the California Army National Guard.

Yeager deployed to Iraq in 2011 as deputy commander of the Cal Guard’s 40th Combat Aviation Brigade, then served as a battalion and brigade commander.

GOP’s Amash, impeachment supporter, quits conservative group The Associated Press

“Things like that to me reflect incredible dishonesty and really harm the office of the presidency.

I don’t think that you can just let that stuff go.”

Amash on Mueller’s report

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Justin Amash, the lone Republican calling for President Donald Trump’s impeachment, has quit the Freedom Caucus of House conservatives, his spokeswoman confirmed Tuesday.

The split comes a few weeks after Amash called for the House to impeach Trump based on the details of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report. Several members of the Freedom Caucus said they were blindsided by Amash’s move, but he has stood by it, repeating his argument in detail on Twitter. Trump and many of his allies on Capitol Hill say the report and the Democrats’ investigations of Trump are drummedup partisan exercises.

Amash’s departure from the caucus — he was one of the group’s founders — is a reflection of how closely the group is now tied to the president.

While Amash’s views on small government have not changed, his break on impeachment has strained ties with his GOP colleagues.

Asked about Amash on Tuesday, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., criticized his voting record and said Amash “can determine his own future.” Philosophically, he said, Amash is “probably in a different place than the majority of all of us.”

Trump also has said he’s not impressed by Amash. But the Grand Rapids-area Republican hails from a state that Trump swiped from Democrats in 2016 and is driving to win again in 2020.

For his part, Amash has not said whether he will run for re-election to his House seat.

He has left open the prospect of running for president in 2020 as a Libertarian, which could take away support from Trump.

At a town hall in his district May 28, he received standing ovations from many who saluted his “courage.” Amash also sparred with some former supporters who faulted him for embracing a Democratic “smear attack” against Trump.

Citing Mueller’s report, Amash said Trump had asked former White House counsel Don McGahn to create a “false record” denying that he had asked for Mueller’s removal as special counsel.

“Things like that to me reflect incredible dishonesty and really harm the office of the presidency. I don’t think that you can just let that stuff go,” Amash told his constituents. “I think you have to have proceedings to deter this kind of conduct even if ultimately the person is not convicted.”

Amash’s resignation from the Freedom Caucus was confirmed by spokeswoman Poppy Nelson and was first reported by CNN.

Ex-Army staff sergeant to get Medal of Honor for Iraq valor The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump will award the nation’s highest military honor to former Army Staff Sgt. David G. Bellavia for actions in Iraq, the White House announced Monday.

Bellavia was leading a squad in support of Operation Phantom Fury in Fallujah on his 29th birthday in November 2004 when his platoon was pinned down by gunfire as he went from house to house. Bellavia engaged the insurgents, providing cover that allowed members of the platoon to exit safely. He later re-entered the house and killed at least four of the insurgents, who were firing rocket-propelled grenades.

“That remarkable day, then-Staff Sergeant Bellavia rescued an entire squad, cleared an insurgent strongpoint, and saved many members of his platoon from imminent threat,” the White House announcement said.

Trump will present the Medal of Honor to Bellavia on June 25.

“Your head just spins,” Bellavia, a radio host for WBEN in Buffalo, New York, told the station in an interview published Friday. “You go right back to 15 years ago. Ever since I got this news, we’re right back there and now I’m talking to all the guys and the families of those we lost.”

Bellavia was released from the Army in August 2005 after serving for six years and has been awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star and the New York State Conspicuous Service Cross. He wrote about the battle in a 2007 book, “House to House: An Epic Memoir of War .”

He has been active in Republican politics, saying at a 2017 pro-Trump rally in Buffalo that he believes Trump “can be the greatest president this country has ever known.”

Bellavia ran for Congress in 2012, losing to Rep. Chris Collins in the Republican primary, and was talked about as a potential successor to Collins when Collins temporarily suspended his re-election campaign last summer after being indicted on insider trading charges. Bellavia’s name is in play again as Collins, whose trial is pending, mulls whether to run in 2020.

He called the experience of being chosen for the Medal of Honor “very uncomfortable and awkward,” but said he wants to represent Iraq war veterans, who have not had a living Medal of Honor recipient.

“When you go to basic training, you clean your weapons and you read the citations of these recipients and it’s like they’re superheroes,” Bellavia said.

“They’re not real. ... I can’t get my head around it. I still can’t.”

Regulatory bill passes Senate The Associated Press RALEIGH — The legislature’s annual attempt to reduce or alter North Carolina regulations has advanced through the Senate, absent a provision allowing landfills to accept computers and televisions again.

The chamber voted 39-5 on Monday for the “Regulatory Reform Act of 2019” after a bill sponsor deleted language that would have repealed the landfill prohibition started in 2011. Supporters

By special declaration from Gov. Roy Cooper, June will be Blueberry Month in North Carolina. The state is the sixth biggest blueberry producer in the U.S., with more than 100 farms harvesting 7,200 acres to produce 46.6 million pounds a year for a market value of $66.9 million.

“Blueberries are enjoyed by millions of consumers in the United States and have been an important resource in North Carolina throughout our state’s history,” Cooper said in his proclamation.

The sandy soil in the eastern part of the state, while not considered prime land for growing many other crops, is ideal for producing blueberries.

The N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services cautions that this year’s unusually hot May weather may cause the 2019 crop to be smaller than in previous years, although the quality of the berries shouldn’t be negatively impacted.

“Farmers are always at the mercy of weather, and this May was one of the hottest on record,” said Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler. “But the quality of the crop is still expected to be good.”

Five-year-old killed by crossfire

Two councilmen separated by wall after fight Hertford County The Hertford town council is literally divided after a judge ordered a barrier installed to separate two members who had a physical confrontation. The wall is part of the conditions allowing Hertford town council members Quentin Jackson and Sid Eley to attend meetings. The screen kept the two men from seeing each other during a town council meeting last week. The barrier and a condition that the two men stay more than 20 feet apart were imposed after the 33-year-old Jackson was convicted of punching the 72-year-old Eley in the head.

Robeson County A 5-year-old boy has been killed by crossfire between people fighting near state Highway 72. Robeson County Sheriff Burnis Wilkins said Alva Paisley Oxendine was wounded near Red Springs and pronounced dead at a hospital hours later. The child was sitting in the back seat of his mother’s car when he was shot. Alva’s brother was also in the back seat but wasn’t wounded. Wilkins says a planned fight between two groups led to the shooting.

The measure now heading to the House also alters plumbing codes by increasing the number of people before a drinking fountain or toilet is required in construction. It also eases a monetary matching requirement for Charlotte Motor Speedway to access landfill cleanup funds.

Iredell County Kay Jewelers has split with a Statesville store manager who wouldn’t allow a deputy to pick up an engagement ring because the deputy was wearing his service weapon. The store said Thursday on Facebook that the worker is no longer employed by the company. The deputy went to the store on his lunch break this week and left without the ring he’d purchased. The manager met the deputy at the door and told him he couldn’t enter while armed with his service weapon.

Politics is a strong and slow boring of hard boards

True leadership is as rare as the most precious gemstone.

MAX WEBER, a German sociologist and philosopher in the early 20th century, observed the truth about how difficult politics really is: “Politics is a strong and slow boring of hard boards. It requires passion as well as perspective. Certainly all historical experience confirms — that man would not have achieved the possible unless time and again he had reached out for the impossible.

“But to do that, a man must be a leader, and more than a leader, he must be a hero as well, in a very sober sense of the word. And even those who are neither leaders nor heroes must arm themselves with that resolve of heart which can brave even the failing of all hopes.

“This is necessary right now, otherwise we shall fail to attain that which it is possible to achieve today.

“Only he who is certain not to destroy himself in the process should hear the call of politics; he must endure even though he finds the world too stupid or too petty for that which he would offer. In the face of that he must have the resolve to say ‘and yet,’ — for only then does he hear the ‘call’ of politics.”

If only there was some way to make sure that every elected public official now in office has read Weber’s quote, memorized it and taken it to heart with them into work every single day. We might have a shot at solving real problems then instead of engaging in the kindergarten antics we see daily in Congress.

However, not every elected official has the capacity to be a great leader. True leadership is as rare as the most precious gemstone.

Weber says the true leader-hero “must endure even though he finds the world too stupid or too petty” which is very difficult for many successful people.

“Have you watched these clowns on the city council on local cable access? They are idiots!” I have heard many successful people say. “I have no intention of being in the same room with such people!”

“Yes, but those clown people are making laws that you successful people have to abide by and follow,” I tell them.

Blank stares ensue.

“And if you are as smart and successful as you think you are, don’t you think you can run circles around the idiots and cretins on any legislative body and outsmart them and craft legislation more to your liking than theirs?” I will usually follow up.

Blank stares again.

Successful people have no one to blame but themselves when it comes to electoral politics. They don’t run in the numbers they used to, even as recently as the 1980s. Once they ceded the battlefield of politics to less talented people, we as a nation got what we deserved: stalemate on every big issue we face, name-calling, finger-pointing and $21 trillion in national debt and counting.

“Man would not have achieved the possible unless time and again he had reached for the impossible.”

Weber correctly points out that leader-heroes have to have the vision to see where our nation can go together before the rest of us can get there.

Civil rights were not achieved by everyone accepting the status quo forever. Balancing the budget from 1998-2001 was not done by congressmen who promised not to cut spending or reform entitlements because they knew it was morally reprehensible to not succeed.

We need leader-heroes with vision and guts. The best leaders don’t care whether they get reelected or not.

“Only he who is certain not to destroy himself in the process should hear the call of politics.” Leader-heroes have the intelligence, the internal fortitude and the reasoned experience to avoid the pitfalls of politics and public service.

We just need more of them.

Using government to shut down personal opinions you don’t like is not the answer

What we have here are government officials, sometimes at the urging of liberal activists, penalizing a business for the personal beliefs of its owner.

SEVEN YEARS after their war on Chick-fil-A began, the left’s message remains the same: You will be made to care. Or suffer the consequences for noncompliance.

Since declaring open season on the fast-food chain, the left’s victories have been few and far between — mostly confined to college campuses.

But that hasn’t stopped them from aiming higher.

Chick-fil-A’s “sin,” to the left, is in president and CEO Dan Cathy’s beliefs about marriage. He’s opposed to gay marriage and, through various Chick-fil-A foundations, has contributed money to groups — some of them Christian-based — that also oppose same-sex marriage.

In 2012, Boston’s then-Mayor Tom Menino, a Democrat, vowed to block the restaurant from opening a location in his city. In threatening to make getting a license to operate very difficult, Menino said at the time that “Chick-fil-A doesn’t belong in Boston.”

That same year, with the backing of Chicago’s then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Democratic Alderman Joe Moreno vowed to block a proposed Chick-fil-A location in the city’s 1st Ward. “Because of [Dan Cathy’s] ignorance, I will now be denying Chick-fil-A’s permit to open a restaurant in the 1st Ward,” Moreno said at the time.

San Francisco’s then-Mayor Ed Lee, another Democrat, also threatened the chicken sandwich chain, tweeting that “I strongly recommend that they not try to come any closer” than its location 40 miles from his city.

In spite of their campaigns against the chain, there is still a Chickfil-A location in the works for Logan Square in Chicago, and plans are also in the works for their first location in Boston to open in 2020.

There are still no Chick-fil-A restaurants in San Francisco, however, but there is a proposal for one about 25 miles away that one San Mateo County official opposes.

Supervisor David Canepa told San Francisco-area media outlets recently that he plans on writing a letter to the fast-food chain demanding they drop plans to open a restaurant in Redwood City. He’s also stirring up local outrage in hopes that demonstrators will take to

the streets in protest.

Will government force be the next step for Canepa if his letter to the restaurant doesn’t produce his desired outcome?

It’s a fair question to ask, because Canepa was inspired by the actions of government officials in two other cities to successfully ban Chickfil-A. In March, the Democrat-controlled San Antonio city council voted to ban the restaurant from the city’s airport location for the next seven years, citing alleged “anti-LGBTQ behavior.” That same month, Democratic New York state legislator Sean Ryan successfully pushed to get the restaurant banned from the Buffalo Niagara International Airport.

“The views of Chick-fil-A do not represent our state or the Western New York community, and businesses that support discrimination have no place operating in taxpayer-funded public facilities,” Ryan tweeted.

San Antonio’s actions and Ryan’s public pressure were both in response to a report released from a left-wing website detailing the restaurant’s 2017 charitable contributions. That website, along with several others, have been on a relentless mission to “expose” Dan Cathy’s personal beliefs in an effort to either shame him into stopping his contributions to so-called “anti-LGBTQ groups” — or put him out of business altogether.

If the left had substantial evidence pointing to LGBTQ discrimination in the Chick-fil-A workplace, they’d have a point in pushing for government intervention. But there’s no evidence of the sort. What we have here are government officials, sometimes at the urging of liberal activists, penalizing a business for the personal beliefs of its owner.

That should send a chill up the spine of any First Amendment-loving American, no matter which side of the political aisle you happen to sit.

GUEST OPINION | ALFREDO ORTIZ

Cooper deserves an “F” on education

Ninety-seven percent of Opportunity Scholarship recipients are happy with their child’s academic progress.

WHEN IT COMES to public school education, the last grade the state of North Carolina received was a “C-minus.” But that’s not as bad as the “F” Gov. Roy Cooper deserves for jeopardizing education opportunities for low-income and minority students in his state.

In his budget proposal for 2019-20, Cooper suggests freezing funding for the state’s Opportunity Scholarship Program — a decision that would negatively impact the state’s most vulnerable students.

These scholarships provide a pathway for children who might be struggling in the state’s public school system but whose families can’t afford another option. Since the Opportunity Scholarship Program was adopted in 2013, thousands of students have been allotted up to $4,200 per year to attend private school — and more students participate with each passing year.

These school vouchers are a good thing. In the short term, more students are able to access higher quality education. This means public schools are forced to compete with their privatesector counterparts in an effort to retain students.

The results? Schools that work harder for their pupils and more satisfied families — 97 percent of Opportunity Scholarship recipients are happy with their child’s academic progress.

In the long term, this program helps the Tarheel State educate a diverse future workforce — one that includes minorities and children from poorer households. In fact, the median adjusted household income for new Opportunity Scholarship recipients between 2016-17 was just over $16,000.

Last year, more than half of scholarship recipients were minorities, with more than 30 percent being awarded to African American students.

Students who may have been overlooked by the system before now have the chance to get ahead

academically and jump-start their future career paths.

This is also good news for companies that are making an effort to hire CEOs and appoint board members from various backgrounds — something many businesses claim benefits their bottom line. Research shows that teams of more diverse employees see revenue grow at higher rates year over year.

In terms of cost, taxpayers should be able to get behind these scholarships as well. Right now, it costs over $9,000 on average to educate a child in the North Carolina public school system. Compare that to the $4,200 maximum spent per child with Opportunity Scholarships. And there’s no issue of popularity — a recent poll found that an overwhelming 85 percent of respondents either strongly or somewhat support the Opportunity Scholarship Program.

So why does Cooper want to phase out a program that benefits taxpayers, businesses and — most importantly — has already helped so many students? That’s exactly the question my organization, the Job Creators Network, hopes to encourage the people of North Carolina to ask. We have placed three billboards throughout the state criticizing Cooper’s stance on these scholarships and asking citizens to request he renew his support for this program.

Cooper has a choice to make. Will his governorship be marked by missed opportunities for students? Or, will he be remembered for making the best interests of students a priority, instead of an afterthought?

There’s still time left to raise that “F” to an “A-plus,” Gov. Cooper, but the clock is ticking.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR | STOWE ROSE

JON ELSWICK | AP PHOTO

In this March 24, 2019, file photo, a copy of a letter from Attorney General William Barr advising Congress of the principal conclusions reached by special counsel Robert Mueller, is photographed in Washington.

Robert Mueller’s muddled mess The implication is that Trump should be presumed guilty unless it can be proven that he did not commit a crime.

ON MAY 29 Special Counsel Robert Muller broke his two-year silence by holding a brief, nine-minute press conference. Far from providing closure to his investigation—as had been hoped, Mueller’s public statements have led to renewed cries by Democrats to further investigate and possibly even impeach the President.

In his remarks, Mueller omitted any mention of the investigatory findings favorable to President Trump and his campaign organization. In his written report, Mueller had concluded that “… the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian Government in its election interference activities.” In his press conference, Mueller spoke only to the secondary issue of whether President Trump had sought to obstruct the Special Counsel’s investigation.

Mueller stated that his team was unable to determine that the President did not seek to obstruct the investigation. Mueller added that “… our Constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting President of wrong-doing.” Mueller thus tacitly provided the Democrats with the pretext to pursue further investigations and even impeachment proceedings, and the encouragement to do so.

By his public statements, Mueller is turning our Constitution on its head and our system of justice upside down. The implication is that Trump should be presumed guilty unless it can be proven that he did not commit a crime. Such a conclusion runs completely counter to our constitutional guarantee of due process under the law, and a presumption of innocence until proven guilty.

Not only has Mueller imposed a judicial standard straight out of Stalinist Russia, but he has exceeded his authority under the Special Counsel regulations.

These regulations do not authorize the Special Counsel to make recommendations that Congress consider or pursue further investigatory hearings or impeachment proceedings.

Documents recently made public suggest other possible misconduct by Mueller, including material misrepresentations and the omission of facts and evidence favorable to the President in the Mueller Report. There are further indications that exonerative evidence may have been suppressed in obtaining the indictments and convictions of persons associated with President Trump and his campaign, on charges unrelated to the alleged

Russian collusion. If such evidence was suppressed, Mueller and his team would also have violated the Justice Department’s prosecutorial code of conduct and the code of ethical conduct applicable to all lawyers.

It is not surprising that Mueller does not want to appear before Congress and face questions from lawmakers. Doing so would risk exposing possible gross misconduct by Mueller and his team, and potentially the false premise of the entire investigation.

If the Democrats follow Mueller’s cue and proceed with hearings and impeachment, they will likely encounter the same reality that led the Special Counsel to not recommend a charge of obstruction of justice against the President. By all accounts President Trump’s cooperation with the Special Counsel was unprecedented in its candor and completeness.

Despite the great concern over Russian interference in our elections and the possible obstruction of related investigations, it is startling that the actions of Hillary Clinton have not also been formally examined.

There is compelling evidence now that Clinton actually did collude with Russia-linked Ukrainians in an attempt to influence the outcome of the 2016 election, and actually did obstruct justice by destroying subpoenaed emails, communication devices, and computer storage devices. The evidence is mounting that Clinton was aided and abetted in these offenses by senior Obama administration officials.

The apparent partisan effort led by Democrats to undo an election result and destroy a Republican presidency has divided our country to an extent not seen since the Civil War. The full measure of the resulting damage to U.S. foreign policy and national security, and to the accomplishment of domestic policy initiatives, will never be known.

What has taken place over the past three years is arguably the most egregious and damaging case of government corruption ever in the history of the United States. Unless those persons behind this scheme are held to account for their actions, this type of corruption will become an accepted aspect of our government and our electoral system, just as it characterizes unstable, corrupt regimes elsewhere in the world.

Stowe Rose is a Charlotte-based attorney.

How to create conflict WE ARE LIVING in a time of increasing domestic tension. Some of it stems from the presidency of Donald Trump. Another part of it is various advocacy groups on both sides of the political spectrum demanding one cause or another.

But nearly totally ignored is how growing government control over our lives, along with the betrayal of constitutional principles, contributes the most to domestic tension. Let’s look at a few examples.

Think about primary and secondary schooling. I think that every parent has the right to decide whether his child will recite a morning prayer in school. Similarly, every parent has the right to decide that his child will not recite a morning prayer. The same can be said about the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag, sex education and other hot-button issues in education. These become contentious issues because schools are owned by the government.

In the case of prayers, there will either be prayers or no prayers in school. It’s a political decision whether prayers will be permitted or not, and parent groups with strong preferences will organize to fight one another. A win for one parent means a loss for another parent. The losing parent will be forced to either concede or muster up private school tuition while continuing to pay taxes for a school for which he has no use. Such a conflict would not arise if education were not government-produced but only government-financed, say through education vouchers. Parents with different preferences could have their wishes fulfilled by enrolling their child in a private school of their choice. Instead of being enemies, parents with different preferences could be friends.

People also have strong preferences for goods and services. Some of us have strong preferences for white wine and distaste for reds while others have the opposite preference — strong preferences for red wine.

Some of us love classical music while others love rock ’n’ roll music. Some of us love Mercedes-Benz while others love Lincoln Continentals. When’s the last time you heard red wine drinkers in conflict with white wine drinkers?

Have you ever seen classical music lovers organizing against rock ’n’ roll lovers or Mercedes-Benz lovers in conflict with Lincoln Continental lovers?

People have strong preferences for these goods just as much as they may have strong preference for schooling.

It’s a rare occasion, if ever, that one sees the kind of conflict between wine, music and automobile lovers that we see about schooling issues.

Why? While government allocation of resources is a zero-sum game — one person’s win is another’s loss — market allocation is not. Market allocation is a positive-sum game where everybody wins. Lovers of red wine, classical music and MercedesBenz get what they want while lovers of white wine, rock and roll music and Lincoln Continentals get what they want. Instead of fighting one another, they can live in peace and maybe be friends.

It would be easy to create conflict among these people. Instead of market allocation, have government, through a democratic majority-rule process, decide what wines, music and cars would be produced. If that were done, I guarantee that red wine lovers would organize against white wine lovers, classical music lovers against rock ’n’ roll lovers and Mercedes-Benz lovers against Lincoln Continental lovers.

Conflict would emerge solely because the decision was made in the political arena. Again, the prime feature of political decision-making is that it’s a zero-sum game. One person’s win is of necessity another person’s loss. If red wine lovers win, white wine lovers would lose. As such, political allocation of resources enhances conflict while market allocation reduces conflict. The greater the number of decisions made in the political arena, the greater the potential for conflict. That’s the main benefit of limited government.

Unfortunately, too many Americans want government to grow and have more power over our lives.

That means conflict among us is going to rise.

Vatican rejects gender change to alarm of LGBT Catholics

By Nicole Winfield The Associated Press VATICAN CITY — The Vatican issued an official document Monday rejecting the idea that people can choose or change their genders and insisting on the sexual “complementarity” of men and women to make babies.

The document, published during LGBT Pride Month, was immediately denounced by LGBT Catholics as contributing to bigotry and violence against gay and transgender people. Advocacy group New Ways Ministry said it would further confuse individuals questioning their gender identity or sexual orientation and at risk of self-harm.

The text, “Male and Female He Created Them,” was intended to help Catholic teachers, parents, students and clergy address what the Vatican’s Congregation for Catholic Education called an “educational crisis” in the field of sex education.

It called for a “path of dialogue” and listening on the issue of “gender theory” in education. But even priestly advocates for LGBT Catholics noted that the

text appeared to have relied entirely on previous papal pronouncements, Vatican documents and philosophers and theologians.

“The real-life experiences of LGBT people seem entirely absent from this document,” said the Rev. James Martin, a Jesuit priest who wrote a book on improving Catholic Church outreach to the LGBT community, titled “Building a Bridge.” ‘’We should welcome the congregation’s call to dialogue and listening on gender, and I hope that conversation will now begin.”

Jay Brown of the Human Rights Campaign — the largest LGBT-rights group in the United States — said the Vatican’s stance “sends a dangerous message that anybody who experiences gender diversity is somehow less worthy.”

Pope Francis has repeatedly argued the position that people cannot choose their genders. But the document represents the first attempt to put the Vatican’s position, first articulated fully by Pope Benedict XVI in a 2012 speech, into a comprehensive, official text.

The document called for a new alliance among families, schools and soci-

ety to offer a “positive and prudent sexual education” in Catholic schools so children learn the “full original truth of masculinity and femininity.”

It called gender fluidity a symptom of the “confused concept of freedom” and “momentary desires” that characterize post-modern culture. It rejected terms such as “intersex” and “transgender” and said the purpose of the biological “complementarity” of the male and female sex organs was to ensure procreation.

Francis DeBernardo, head of New Ways Ministry, said such concepts are outdated, misinformed and ignore contemporary science on factors beyond visible genitalia that determine gender.

“Gender is also biologically determined by genetics, hormones and brain chemistry — things not visible at birth,” DeBernardo said in a statement. “People do not choose their gender, as the Vatican claims, they discover it through their lived experiences.”

He said the Catholic Church should encourage this process of discovery, saying it’s “a process by which individuals discover the wonderful way that God has created them.”

STOCKHOLM — A second man was sentenced Tuesday to three years in prison in connection with the theft of 17th-century royal treasures estimated to be worth 65 million kronor ($7 million) from a cathedral west of Stockholm last year.

Martin Cannermo was convicted of complicity in stealing two crowns and an orb used at the funerals of King Karl IX and Queen Kristina, the Attunda District Court said.

The man, whose DNA was found on the regalia, had denied any wrongdoing.

Cannermo received a lower prison sentence because he had been instrumental in helping to recover the items, the court said. He told the court that the reason his DNA was found on them that he had handled the treasures so that they could be recovered.

In February, the main suspect, Johan Nicklas Backstrom, was given four-and-a-half years in prison for stealing the jewels from Strangnas Cathedral.

Backstrom had confessed to stealing the objects on July 31 but declined to say if he had accomplices.

The jewels were discovered Feb. 5 in a garbage bin north of Stockholm.

The heist made international headlines because two thieves were seen dashing away from the 13th-century red-brick church on stolen bicycles and then fled by motorboat via the vast system of lakes west of Stockholm.

The treasures were used as funeral regalia, which were placed inside or on top of a coffin to symbolize a deceased royal’s identity and social ranking. While some funeral objects are kept in the cathedrals of Strangnas, Uppsala and Vasteras, Sweden’s crown jewels are in vaults under the Royal Castle in Stockholm.

US submits extradition request for WikiLeaks founder Assange The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — The United States government has formally submitted an extradition request to the United Kingdom for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (ah-SAHNJ’), according to a U.S. official.

Assange faces an 18-count indictment that accuses him of soliciting and publishing classified information and of conspiring with former Army private Chelsea Manning to crack a Defense Department computer password.

The 47-year-old Assange was evicted on April 11 from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where he had been holed up since 2012 after Ecuador granted him political asylum. He was arrested by British police and is currently serving a 50-week sentence for jumping bail in 2012.

Sweden also seeks him for questioning about an alleged rape, which Assange has denied.

The U.S. official spoke on condition of anonymity because the official wasn’t authorized to speak publicly.

A dolphin is measured at the end of the Monday’s opening day of the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament. More than $2.8 million in prize money, a Big Rock record, is up for grabs at this year’s tournament.

City resident Pete Ray, earned the first score of the tourney, bringing a 545.4-pound marlin to the scales early in the afternoon. By landing the first 500-pounder of the tournament, Sweetums claimed the Fabulous Fisherman prize, netting the boat $531,250.

Sweetums actually caught the second marlin of the day, but the first, landed by Morehead City’s Post Call, captained by Gene Ward, was 451.4 pounds, missing the Fabulous Fisherman criteria by 48.6 pounds.

Maryland-based Top Dog caught a 464.9-pounder, and Morehead City’s Piracy, captained

by Chris Russell, hooked one at 461.4 pounds.

The Wolverine, captained by Morehead City’s Rocky Hardison, jumped into the top spot in early evening, weighing in its catch at 588.9 pounds.

“We had a pretty good idea about what it was going to weigh,” Hardison told the Big Rock website. “The fish jumped one time and we knew it was going to be a real one. It was pretty well on from then.”

The Donna Mae landed a 569.9-pounder later in the day to pull into second place, bumping Sweetums into third. Big Tahuna pulled into fourth with a late catch weighing 482.3 pounds.

This year’s tournament attracted a total of 184 boats, with 181 of them in action on opening day, in the hopes of taking home the Fabulous Fisherman prize. Entrants can fish a total of four out of the six tournament days and must

IT WAS THREE STRIKES and you’re out for the state’s hopes of sending a team to baseball’s College World Series this year.

North Carolina, East Carolina and Duke came up short on the road to Omaha over the weekend, with each getting eliminated from their respective NCAA Super Regionals in spectacular fashion.

The Tar Heels surrendered 13 runs in the first inning at home to Auburn in losing the deciding game of their best-of-three series on Monday. The Pirates managed just one run and eight hits in a two-game sweep at Louisville that saw them outscored by a 26-1 margin, while Duke got no-hit by Vanderbilt on Saturday, striking out 19 times, before having their season ended with a 13-2 blowout at the hands of the Commodores.

They were flameouts met by a range of emotions, none of them positive.

“It’s hard to get this close and then not be able to get there,” coach Mike Fox said after the 14-7 loss that denied UNC a second straight to Omaha.

Auburn, which won its regional at Georgia Tech as a No. 3 seed, sent 17 men to the plate — banging out nine hits and benefitting from five walks against four Tar Heels pitchers — in a rally that all but decided the game before the home team ever came to bat.

As damaging as the Tigers’ first-inning blitz was to UNC’s College World Series hopes, the more costly offensive explosion came two days earlier in Game 1. With the Tar Heels up 5-2 and heading to what appeared to be a routine victory, their bullpen let them down by allowing nine runs over the final two innings for an 11-7 loss that put them on the brink of elimination.

UNC bounced back with a 2-0 win on Sunday.

But that only made the sting of Monday’s final loss all the more painful for Fox and his players.

“This team has been one of the joys of my career,” Fox said. “They’re just some of the best kids I’ll be around. They’re Tar Heels and they wanted to win, win for each other for all the right reasons.”

While Fox and his ACC Tournament champions held back tears of disappointment over their unceremonious departure from the tournament, ECU coach Cliff Godwin lashed out with some angry words for the NCAA and a selection process he believes put his team at an insurmountable disadvantage.

Godwin was specifically upset that the 10th-seeded Pirates were denied a top-eight national seed that would have allowed them to host a Super Regional instead of having to play on the road at No. 7 Louisville.

“I guess that’s the way it is when you’re a non-Power Five school,” he said. “These guys, in my opinion, earned the right to be a national seed.

Not over Louisville, but they had the fifth RPI in the country, won 42 regular-season games, had the 11th nonconference strength of schedule and didn’t even sniff a national seed. In my opinion,

Big, hungry marlin lead to wild first day at Big Rock Annual sportfishing tournament starts strong with a nearly 600-pound fish caught on Monday

By Shawn Krest North State Journal MOREHEAD CITY—If we’ve learned anything in the first day of competition at Big Rock, it’s that the marlins have been eating well.

The 61st annual Big Rock Tournament is in full swing, and fishermen are pulling in super-sized marlin off the North Carolina coast.

Last year, Honey Hush took home the Big Rock prize with a 518.5-pound marlin. The anglers on board caught it on the second day of the 2018 tournament, and the lead held up through the week.

That would have been good for fourth place on the first day of this year’s tournament. The 533.9-pound marlin caught by Run-Off to win Big Rock in 2017 would also have been in fourth place after day one.

In a wild opening day, a total of seven marlins were caught as boats took turns atop the leader board, making it the most eventful day at Big Rock in 16 years. That 2003 day also saw seven marlins brought in to be weighed, with five different boats spending time atop the leaderboard.

In addition to the seven marlins on the scale, there were 41 billfish releases and 22 dolphins brought to the scales.

Other day one winners included Job Site, which caught a 53.7-pound dolphin to earn $2,000, and Full Pull, which won the daily release prize of $47,104 with 800 points.

On Tuesday, 161 boats were in action, with 23 taking the day off.

Total purse money for the tournament will be a record $2,869,050, topping the previous record, set last year, by more than $300,000.

Wolverine took home more than $793,000 for topping the charts on day one, and the boat remains in position to claim the big prize at the end of the week.

Big Rock kicked off with the traditional Keli Wagner Lady Angler (KWLA) Tournament. The 22nd annual KWLA was held on Saturday. Whitecaps took home the top prize with two marlins, worth a total of 800 points. Collins White of Wilson and Wortley Whitehead of Wilmington each landed one, earning the boat $81,525 for first place.

MLB picks must decide on college or pros Brennan Malone, a right-handed pitcher from Matthews, puts on a Diamond­ backs jersey after being selected 33rd overall last Monday in the MLB Draft in Secaucus, N.J.

Players from or coming to North Carolina will weigh their pro options

By Brett Friedlander North State Journal COLLEGE BASKETBALL has its one-and-dones. In baseball, many of the top prospects don’t even make it onto campus before leaving to cash their first professional paycheck.

It’s a none-and-done system that has been in place for years and will likely to cost NC State, North Carolina and Duke the most prominent members of their 2019 recruiting classes, while potentially affecting several other Division I programs around the state.

The Wolfpack, Tar Heels and Blue Devils all had signees selected in the first round of the Major League Baseball draft last week. With bonus slots valued at $2 million or more, there’s plenty of incentive for high school pitchers Blake Walston and Brennan Malone, along with outfielder Sammy Siani, to skip school and head straight to the minor leagues.

State commit Walston, a lefthander from Wilmington’s New Hanover High School, and righthander Malone, a UNC pledge from Matthews, were both taken by the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Walston was the 26th overall selection while Malone, who attended IMG Academy in Florida, went seven picks later.

Siani, meanwhile, was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates at No. 37 in the compensation phase of the

first round. A native of Glensville, Pa., he is the highest-rated member of Duke’s incoming class.

Of the three, Malone figures to be the most motivated to sign judging from his draft night comments moments after his name was called by Diamondbacks legend and Hall of Fame pitcher Randy Johnson.

“It’s kind of crazy; like a dream, almost,” Malone said in an interview with MLB Network, calling his selection a blessing. “I love this organization and I’m ready to get started.”

Siani, described by Duke coach Chris Pollard as “without question, one of the best players in all of the country in the 2019 class,” also appears headed for pro ball based on the example of his older brother.

That is, assuming the Pirates

write a big enough check.

Mike Siani signed with the Reds as a fourth-round pick last year rather than playing collegiately at Virginia. But he did so for $2 million, nearly four times his slotted number. Since that same $2 million figure also happens to be Sammy’s bonus value at No. 37, that’s where his negotiation will start rather than finish.

Money could also be the determining factor in Walston’s decision between the Wolfpack and Diamondbacks.

The 6-foot-4 left-hander, who recently pitched New Hanover to its second straight 3A state championship, is slotted at $2.6 million.

While that’s a lot of money, especially for a teenager still a month away from his 18th birthday, there are some that believe he can make even more as the potential top

overall pick in 2022 if he goes to college and spends the next three years maturing.

Arizona, however, own the largest bonus pool of any team in the majors. So even with four firstround picks to sign, it can still afford to overpay a prospect if that’s what it takes to get him in the organization.

And that’s what it appears the Diamondbacks are prepared to do with Walston.

“We weren’t taking guys because we thought we could sign them, we were taking guys because we know we can sign them,” Deric Ladnier, the team’s scouting director said on a draft night teleconference. “Maybe there were guys that were over the price of the value of the player is, but the demands of what they wanted was really not an issue.”

High school players enrolling at four-year colleges must wait until after their junior (or redshirt sophomore) seasons before becoming draft eligible again.

While most lower round picks end up going to school rather than signing, these next few weeks will present some nervous moments for college coaches as they wait to see who and how many of their recruits will be available to them in the fall.

And virtually everyone in the state is affected.

In addition to Malone, UNC’s Mike Fox could also lose left-handed pitcher Davidjohn Herz from Fayetteville’s Terry Sanford High, the eighth-round pick of the Chicago Cubs.

Four other Tar Heel recruits were drafted: right-handed pitcher Joseph Charles from Celebration, Fla. (25th round, Mets); Fayetteville right-hander Isaiah Bennett (36th, Padres); Walston’s catcher at New Hanover Ryan Smith (36th Diamondbacks); and Fort Mill, S.C., shortstop Tyler Causey (37th, Brewers).

State’s draft list includes Thomasville outfielder Noah Soles (19th, Diamondbacks) and Baltimore shortstop Jose Torres (24th, Brewers), while Duke recruit Chad Knight, a catcher from Somerset, Pa., was taken by the Yankees in the 31st round.

Wake Forest (Blake Loubier, RHP, Winter Springs, Fla., 13th, Red Sox), East Carolina (C.J. Mayhue, RHP, Shelby, 36th, Mariners), Charlotte (Tyler Driver, RHP, Wake Forest, 18th, Mariners) and NC A&T (Marc Church, RHP, Atlanta, 18th, Rangers) also had recruits selected in the draft.

Godwin was even more fired up about the lack of preparation time his team was given in its bid to reach the CWS for the first time in school history.

While some teams got to wait until Saturday to begin their bestof-three series, ECU was scheduled to play its Game 1 at noon on

Friday — only about 72 hours after battling through the loser’s bracket to win its rain-delayed regional in Greenville late Monday night.

Louisville jumped on Pirates ace Jake Agnos for four runs in the fourth inning of Game 1 and never let up on the way to a 14-1 victory.

ECU then came within a ninth-inning single of getting no-hit in an anti-climactic 12-0 Game 2 defeat.

“Our guys just ran out of gas,” Godwin said. “You’d think for student-athlete welfare, the NCAA is so concerned about that, we wouldn’t have to play the first game on Friday.”

“I’m not being a sore loser,” Godwin added,” but I’m protecting my guys and my guys deserve that. I was going to say this whether we won the Super Regional or lost it.”

Duke’s Chris Pollard was able

to be more philosophical after watching his team, which wasn’t expected to get this far, fall one win shy of Omaha for the second straight year.

After getting off to a strong start with an 18-5 upset of the second-seeded Commodores on Friday, which included a 10-run eighth, the Blue Devils’ bats went silent. They first fell victim to a historic masterpiece by Vander-

bilt’s Kumar Rocker, then mustered only a pair of solo home runs and three other hits in Sunday’s decisive finale.

“It obviously stings a lot to get this close two years in a row,” Pollard said. “To be one game away from Omaha two years in a row is very difficult. At the same time, I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished.

This team took a lot tougher path to get to a Super Regional.”

Newton, Panthers focus on mechanics after surgery The Carolina quarterback is working his way back from right shoulder surgery

By Steve Reed The Associated Press CHARLOTTE — When Cam Newton starts throwing the football again in meaningful games, the Panthers want to make sure he’s doing it the right way.

Carolina’s coaching staff is placing an added emphasis on improving Newton’s throwing mechanics as the 30-year-old quarterback continues his recovery from arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder.

Newton threw about 20 passes to stationary targets on the first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday.

Newton has done some light throwing before, but these were his first tosses in front of reporters since undergoing surgery in January.

The team promoted the event on Monday, announcing it would be live-streamed for fans to watch.

But there wasn’t much to see.

The 2015 league MVP didn’t overexert his arm, essentially throwing light warmup passes of less than 15 yards to teammates.

He did not participate in team drills.

Panthers coach Ron Rivera said the goal is for Newton to return to using the mechanics he displayed early in the 2018 season before developing shoulder soreness and struggling in the second half of the season.

“If you go back and look at some of the things that happened earlier in the year before the shoulder injury, you can see the improvement, you can see the footwork and the development,” Rivera said. “When the shoulder started to go, everything just kind of fell to the wayside. Now he has an opportunity to go back, rework those things and do the things he needs to improve.”

Rivera, a former NFL linebacker, said he couldn’t describe in de-

tail exactly what tweaks the Panthers are trying to make with Newton’s mechanics, joking that he can teach about how to tackle but not how to throw a football.

Newton offered no insight either, running by reporters after practice without stopping for interviews.

Rivera said Newton is going through the steps of his injury rehabilitation and the team is pleased with his progress.

“He did exactly what we had scripted out and made some targeted throws,” Rivera said. “We will see how he feels today and (Wednesday), and that will dictate how much more he does” in minicamp.

Rivera’s expectation is that Newton will be cleared to practice fully when training camp begins in late July. Rivera said he’s eager to see Newton in his second year in coordinator Norv Turner’s offense.

“You saw the growth and the progression and he will now be in the second year of the system,” Ri-

“Now he has an opportunity to go back, rework those things and do the things he needs to improve.”

Panthers coach Ron Rivera on Cam Newton working on his throwing motion vera said. “Understanding exactly what he needs to do as a quarterback. The decisions he needs to make, is going dictate a lot about his throwing style as well.”

In other news, Carolina signed free agent linebacker Sione Teuhema and waived defensive tackle T.J. Barnes. Teuhema participated in the Panthers’ rookie minicamp last month and most recently played for the Arizona Hotshots of the Alliance of American Football.

LONDON — Crystal Dunn was among the last cuts from the U.S. national team roster for the 2015 Women’s World Cup in Canada.

That just made her all the more determined to get to France.

Dunn is expected to start for the defending champions, one of 24 teams competing in this year’s tournament.

“I’m just so excited to get into this World Cup so that I can no longer be known as that girl that didn’t make a World Cup,” the Carolina Courage midfielder and former University of North Carolina star said, with a laugh.

The 26-year-old native New Yorker said the experience of getting cut has made her into the player she is today.

“I supported them (the 2015 team) along their journey, but I was able to reflect on myself and really just invest in who I wanted to be as a player. And I think just brushing myself off just helped me get to where I am now.”

While the 2015 team was traversing Canada en route to its third World Cup title, Dunn was back home in the National Women’s Soccer League and lighting it up. She had 15 goals for the Washington Spirit and was awarded the league’s Golden Boot.

She also played a season overseas in Chelsea before returning home and landing with the NWSL’s Courage. Dunn and the Courage won last season’s NWSL title after a record-breaking season.

In the intervening four years, she also became a regular on the national team, earning a spot on the 2016 Olympic roster. She’s scored 24 goals in 84 appearances.

Dunn’s versatility is valued by

coach Jill Ellis, a former NC State assistant coach who has at times moved Dunn up to a more attacking role late in games when subs are made. The starting backline for the U.S. team during the World Cup will likely include Dunn, Courage teammate Abby Dahlkemper, Becky Sauerbrunn and Kelley O’Hara.

“She’s the most versatile player I’ve ever coached,” Ellis said. “It’s not just her ability to play in different lines, it’s the quality with which she plays in different lines, which is quite extraordinary.”

Dunn joked that there’s one position she’ll stay away from: “Keeper. That’s the only one that I refuse.”

“Yes, it is challenging at times,” she said about her shifting role. “I think I’ve been fortunate to actually be on this team where people help me. It’s not so much about, ‘You have to do this, this and this right in order to be the world’s best outside back.’ I think I’m always learning, I’m always trying to be at my best.”

The U.S. team is in Group F at the World Cup, which kicks off Friday in Paris with a match between France and South Korea. Following the Americans’ opener against Thailand in Reims, they’ll face Chile in Paris on June 16. The final match of the group stage is June 20 in Le Havre against nemesis Sweden, which knocked the Americans out of the Rio Games.

This World Cup is all the more special for Dunn because her husband, Pierre Soubrier, was born in France and has family there.

A former player at Quinnipiac University, Soubrier is the head athletic trainer for the Portland Thorns — the team the Courage beat to win the title last season.

Dunn and Soubrier married late last year.

“I always tell Pierre’s family that, obviously, the French side, it would be great for women’s soccer if they were to do well as the hosting country,” she said. “But of course not too well because we’re trying to win this thing.”

The project will add one express lane in each direction on I-485 between I-77 and U.S. 74 (Independence Boulevard), providing travel time reliability and improving traffic flows on this critical transportation corridor. This project will also add one general purpose lane in each direction between Rea Road and Providence Road, and a new interchange at Weddington Road. In coordination with other projects in south/southeastern Mecklenburg County, this project would serve as part of a larger network of express lanes offering drivers the option of more reliable travel times. Updated information regarding noise walls will be available at another public meeting later this year.

Representatives from the design and construction team will be available in an informal, open house-style setting to provide information and answer questions regarding upcoming construction.

Citizens may attend at any time between noon and 7 p.m. There will be no formal presentation.

Tech on trial: House panel begins review of market power Bipartisan push to consider antitrust regulations of Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon comes as members on both sides of the aisle see danger in potential tech monopoly

Approved Logos

By Marcy Gordon The Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C. — Big Tech is about to become big politics in Washington.

The House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday will launch its investigation into the market dominance of Silicon Valley’s biggest names, starting with a look at the impact of the tech giants’ platforms on news content, the media and the spread of misinformation online.

In a Capitol steeped in partisanship, inflamed by special counsel Robert Mueller’s report and Democrats’ intensifying probes of President Donald Trump, the House Judiciary Committee’s investigation of tech market power stands out. Not only is it bipartisan, but it’s also the first such review by Congress of a sector that for more than a decade has enjoyed haloed status and a light touch from federal regulators.

With regulators at the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission apparently pursuing antitrust investigations of Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon, and several state attorneys general exploring bipartisan action of their own, the tech industry finds itself in a precarious moment — with the dreaded M-word increasingly used to describe their way of doing business.

“These are monopolies,” Rep. David Cicilline said on “Fox News Sunday.”

Cicilline, a Rhode Island Democrat, will be leading Tuesday’s subcommittee hearing and vowed that the panel will broadly investigate the digital marketplace and “the dominance of large technology platforms,” with an eye toward legislative action to increase competition.

“We know the problems; they’re

easy to diagnose,” Cicilline said.

“Shaping the solutions is going to be more difficult.”

Politicians on the left and right have differing gripes about the tech giants. Some complain of aggressive conduct that squashes competition.

Others perceive a political bias or tolerance of extremist content. Still others are upset by the industry’s harvesting of personal data.

Several Democratic presidential candidates think they have the solution: breaking up the companies on antitrust grounds. Cicilline has called that “a last resort,” but the idea has currency with both major political parties, including at the White House.

President Donald Trump on Monday noted the huge fines imposed by European regulators on the biggest tech companies.

“We are going to be looking at them differently,” he said in an interview on CNBC. “We should be doing what (the Europeans) are doing,” Trump said.

“Obviously, there is something going on in terms of monopoly.”

The tech giants have mostly declined to comment on the antitrust investigations.

Google has said that scrutiny from lawmakers and regulators “often improves our products and the policies that govern them,” and that in some areas, such as data protection, laws need to be updated.

Facebook executives have been calling broadly for regulation while explicitly rejecting the idea of breaking up “a successful American company.” CEO Mark Zuckerberg has called for new rules in four areas: harmful content, election integrity, privacy and data portability.

When Democratic presidential contender Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted in April that tech giants like Amazon should be broken up, Amazon tweeted back, “Walmart is much larger.”

And Apple has countered a legal challenge to its management of the App Store by saying it “will prevail when the facts are presented and the App Store is not a monopoly by any metric.”

In hearings and closed-door work

over coming months, lawmakers in the House aim to unpeel the complex onion of the tech industry’s dominance. They are expected to summon the chief executives of the major companies to appear before the panel. Not showing up, as some CEOs have done in the past, is unlikely to be tolerated.

For a long time, the tech companies “sort of thumbed their nose at Washington” without repercussions, said Gene Grabowski, a partner at public relations firm kglobal who’s a crisis communications expert. Now lawmakers, often initially slow to flex their muscle over an industry, seem to be making up for lost time.

“They’re late. They feel like they’ve been embarrassed, and it’s a popular issue for their constituents,” he said.

Tech executives have testified to various congressional panels in recent years, often accompanied by high drama and fiery rhetoric. A media frenzy accompanied Zuckerberg’s five-hour grilling on privacy last year at a joint Senate committee hearing. That hearing came in the wake of the scandal involving British data-mining firm Cambridge Analytica, which collected Facebook information on millions of Americans without their knowledge.

But until executives are called to testify, it’s likely to be a tough slog for the subcommittee as it hears from experts and its staff, collects data and documents, and interviews industry players and others behind closed doors.

“There could be something really useful” to emerge as legislation, said Allen Grunes, who led merger investigations at the Justice Department as an antitrust attorney.

Lawmakers could address, for example, the galloping acquisition of small companies by the tech giants or craft an update of antitrust laws to apply better to complex tech behemoths, suggested Grunes, a co-founder and attorney at the Konkurrenz Group in Washington.

“It’s not illegal to be a monopoly,” he said. “But it’s wrong for someone at the top of the hill to kick the people off who are trying to climb it.”

Facebook is building a massive solar project in Texas

By Russell Contreras The Associated Press ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Facebook is building a massive solar farm in West Texas that’s believed to be one of the largest solar projects in the nation and the social media giant’s first direct investment in renewable energy.

Boston-based renewable energy developer Longroad Energy recently announced it was partnering with Facebook on the $416 million project, just as Facebook is finishing construction of a data center near Albuquerque.

The Prospero Solar project just north of Odessa, Texas, will have a capacity of 379 megawatts, which

is enough to power around 72,000 homes based on the national average, the Solar Energy Industries Association said.

The project goes beyond Facebook’s goal to use renewable energy to power its data centers, where the social media giant stores photos, videos and other information that people post on the platform.

C2 Private equity firm buying Shutterfly for $1.74 billion San Francisco Private equity firm Apollo Global Management is buying online photo publishing company Shutterfly for $51 per share. Apollo will pay $1.74 billion for the 20-yearold company, which became popular offering its users prints and photobooks of their favorite shots. But demand for that type of service has declined as people opt to share photos online through Facebook and other social networks. Shutterfly became popular during a time when printing photos meant a trip to the supermarket and often a dayslong wait. The company’s popularity swelled by selling an array of photo-clad gifts including mugs, calendars and canvasses. Shutterfly bought competitor’s Kodak’s online photo business for $23.8 million in 2012 after the legacy photo company filed for bankruptcy protection earlier that year. But as digital photo sharing became more pervasive, Shutterfly’s popularity waned, even as revenue grew. Shutterfly announced it would lay off about 260 employees, or 13% of its staff, in early 2017.

Shutterfly bought school photography company Lifetouch for $825 million last year. Apollo will also buy photo printing company Snapfish and merge it with Shutterfly. Apollo has bought more than 150 companies, including security company ADT, entertainment restaurant Chuck E. Cheese’s and telecom firm Charter Communications.

As investors watch trade wars, other problems percolate As financial and national security threats overlap amid tariff battles with Mexico and China, investors are wary of problems that could arise beyond experts’ immediate grasp

By Stan Choe The Associated Press NEW YORK — Stocks around the world climbed after President Trump withdrew a threat to impose tariffs on Mexico, leaving investors hopeful for a deal to soothe the more contentious and complex trade dispute with China, which helped sink stocks last month.

However, economic trends were already signaling trouble before the latest round of tariff-induced fear. Friday’s surprisingly weak jobs report, where employers added far fewer jobs than economists expected, gave extra pause. Corporate profits are also under pressure.

“If the administration fixes the problem it created, I’m sure there will be a short-term pop in the stock market,” said Rich Weiss, senior portfolio manager at American Century Investments. “However, I believe it’s only short-term because ultimately that will not remedy the underlying fundamen-

tals, which are just not strong.”

Of course, many along Wall Street are still forecasting gains for stocks this year. Much of the optimism rides on analyst forecasts for profit growth to accelerate later this year. Plus, stock prices are looking like better values following their tumble in recent weeks. Perhaps most importantly, the Federal Reserve has intimated it may come to the market’s rescue again and cut interest rates if the trade war swamps the economy.

The bright spots for the U.S. economy are still clear: The job market is solid, as long as Friday’s disappointing report doesn’t herald something more lasting. The unemployment rate at 3.6% is at its lowest since 1969, and consumers are feeling relatively confident.

That’s key when consumer spending accounts for two thirds of the economy.

But skeptics point to other recent economic reports that showed weakness in April, before this latest round of trade worries flared up. Among them: another drop in North American freight shipments, slower manufacturing growth than economists expected and weaker business spending on equipment.

Michael Wilson, equity strategist at Morgan Stanley, sees a warning flag in falling profits for

many retailers. While the industry’s overall figures for the first quarter may look decent due to big gains for Amazon, Nordstrom and other retailers saw big declines. That could be an early sign that U.S. consumers, whose spending is such a key part of the economy, may be less willing to spend in coming months.

“Get ready for more potential growth disappointments even with a trade deal,” Wilson wrote in a recent research report.

Companies across the S&P 500 reported roughly flat earnings for the first three months of 2019, as they’re no longer getting the big boost of the first year of lower tax rates. But analysts are more optimistic about trends later this year and are forecasting growth to accelerate to 7% in the fourth quarter, according to FactSet. That’s key because stock prices tend to track the path of corporate profits over the long term.

But skeptics say those projections are too high.

Barry Bannister, a strategist at Stifel who was among the first voices on Wall Street to turn cautious on stocks last year, expects earnings in the second half of 2019 to fall short of analysts’ projections, particularly in the technology, health care and energy industries.

With the dollar’s value strong and U.S. manufacturing slowing, he’s looking for CEOs to give profit forecasts for the second half of 2019 that fall short of analysts’ expectations, with announcements coming as soon as next month, when companies begin reporting their second-quarter results.

Companies are also paying higher wages to their workers, and average hourly earnings rose 3.1% in May, which raises their costs.

Compare that against the consumer price index, which gives a window into how easily companies can pass along price increases to their customers, notes Chun Wang, senior analyst at Leuthold. CPI inflation hasn’t been that high since 2011, and it was at 2% in April.

All those pressures could bring down profit margins for companies, which have recently been at record highs. If companies aren’t able to extract as much profit from each $1 in revenue, they’ll need to make up for it by delivering more in sales. A slowing economy would make that tough.

In Washington, regulators may be setting the stage for antitrust probes into some of the biggest tech companies. Amazon, Apple, Google’s parent and other mega-tech companies have been some of the market’s best-performing stocks in recent years, and losses for them have outsized effects on S&P 500 index funds. Consider June 3, when nearly three quarters of all the stocks in the S&P 500 rose, but the overall index fell 0.3% because big technology companies had a bad day.

In the Middle East, the Trump administration has pledged “maximum pressure” on Iran. Beyond the possibility of violence, the increasing tensions could send the price of oil soaring, as well as inflation, which has long been dormant. In Europe, Britain is still negotiating its exit from the European Union, and investors are worried about signs of increasing tension between the bloc and Italy.

“So, fixing the China situation does not fix the rest of the world,” said American Century’s Weiss. “Is it a positive? Sure. It’s positive in the short term, but it doesn’t remedy all the other things we have going on.”

Congressional panel names witnesses for Boeing Max hearing Washington, D.C. A famous airline pilot and a former safety regulator are among witnesses scheduled for a congressional hearing on the grounded Boeing 737 Max. The House aviation subcommittee said Monday it will hear from Chesley Sullenberger, who safely landed a crippled Airbus jet on New York’s Hudson River in 2009, former Federal Aviation Administration chief Randy Babbitt, and union and industry officials. The June 19 hearing will be the panel’s second on the Max, which was grounded after two accidents that killed a total of 346 people. The subcommittee says it’s gathering information about steps needed to ensure the plane is safe before it’s allowed to fly again. Last month, the panel heard from acting FAA Administrator Daniel Elwell and Robert Sumwalt, chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board.

SOLAR from page C1 sulting firm, said it makes sense for Facebook to invest in solar power because renewable energy is becoming more affordable and its data centers have huge operating costs.

“West Texas has some of the best solar resources in the nation,” Inskeep said. “So it’s not about saying you support renewable energy. It makes good business sense.”

Shell Energy North America and Facebook will share the power generated by the solar farm.

“Facebook is excited to be one of the first companies to use a direct investment to meet our renewable energy goals,” company energy strategy manager Peter Freed said in a statement.

CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced in April that Facebook was building six new solar projects to support its data centers.

They house tens of thousands of computer servers, which are linked to the outside world through fiber-optic cables.

“Our data centers are already some of the most energy efficient in the world, and last year we set a goal for all our data centers and offices to use 100% renewable energy by 2020,” Zuckerberg wrote on his personal Facebook page. “These new solar projects will help us reach that goal.”

Raytheon Co. and United Technologies Corp. are merging in a deal that creates one of the world’s largest defense companies. The merger was announced Sunday, June 9, 2019. United Technologies makes engines for Lockheed Marti Corp.’s F-35 stealth fighter.

Raytheon and United Technologies to create a defense giant Merger could give new company leverage over industry heavyweights Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman

By Stan Choe The Associated Press WALTHAM, Mass. — Raytheon and United Technologies will join to create a massive aerospace and defense company in a sector that is already rapidly consolidating.

The combined company, which will count among its portfolio of weaponry the F-35 fighter jet engines, Patriot and Tomahawk missile systems in addition to space suits and intelligence technology as well as Pratt & Whitney engines used in both commercial and military aircraft, anticipates annual revenue of $74 billion if approved.

That means it still trails Boeing Co. in heft, but the deal may give the soon to be renamed Raytheon Technologies Corp. leverage with suppliers and contractors over other heavyweights in the industry like Lockheed Martin Corp. and Northrop Grumman Corp.

Costs for the company could eventually be trimmed by $1 billion each year as it strips away duplicative functions.

The combined company would be valued at well over $100 billion even after United Technologies completes the planned spin-off of a good chunk of its commercial, industrial wing. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2020, after those assets are shed by United Technologies.

“The combination of United Technologies and Raytheon will define the future of aerospace and defense,” said Greg Hayes, United Technologies chairman and CEO, who will become the CEO of the combined company.

The companies will push to develop new technologies more quickly with combined R&D spending of $8 billion annually and more than 60,000 engineers. Raytheon Technologies will focus on hypersonics — vehicles or weapons which can fly five times faster than the speed of sound — as well as intelligence and surveillance systems, artificial intelligence for commercial aviation and cybersecurity for connected planes.

The deal would push United Technologies further from the cy-

clical nature of its commercial businesses, and more deeply into the defense sector.

Industry analysts saw fewer advantages for Raytheon, but noted that it has ensured that it is not left behind in the push to grow bigger in aerospace and defense.

“The rationale seems to address (United Technologies’) needs more than Raytheon’s, unless this was also about simply finding the best partner in a consolidating space,” wrote Joseph DeNardi, a defense analyst with Stifel. “A scenario whereby Raytheon would be competing longer-term against Lockheed Martin and a combined Northrop + (United Technologies) may have been an unacceptable outcome of consolidation for Raytheon.”

DeNardi also once saw Boeing as the likely buyer of Raytheon, but said it may have been hobbled by the grounding of its fleet of its 737 Max aircraft.

Raytheon shareholders will receive 2.33 shares in the new company for each Raytheon share.

Once the merger is complete, United Technologies shareholders will own approximately 57% of the company; Raytheon shareholders will own the rest.

Two years after the deal closes, Hayes will also become chairman.

Until then, Raytheon Chairman and CEO Tom Kennedy will be the executive chairman. The company’s board will have eight directors from United Technologies and seven from Raytheon.

Both executives said Monday that there is little overlap between the companies and that they do not anticipate pushback from anti-monopoly regulators.

However, President Donald Trump voiced concerns about the deal when he phoned in to the CNBC early Monday.

“When I hear they’re merging ... does that take away more competition?” asked Trump. “It becomes one big, fat beautiful company, but I have to negotiate, meaning the United States has to buy things.

Does that make it less competitive?”

In 2018 there were eight mergers in defense and aerospace exceeding $1 billion in value, including an all-stock deal between L3 Technologies and Harris, and General Dynamics’ acquisition of CSRA Inc., according to PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Raytheon Co., is based in Waltham, Massachusetts. United Technologies Corp., based in Farmington, Connecticut. Raytheon Technologies will be based near Boston.

Shares of Raytheon rose about 2% early Monday, a day after the deal was announced. United Technologies fell 2%.
