• A photo of Nicolás Maduro wearing a Nike Tech sweatsuit in US custody is sparking viral interest.
• Online searches and social media posts about Nike Tech surged after the image was published.
• The Nike Tech fleece jackets have sold out in several sizes and styles, a sign of their popularity.

A photo of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in US custody may have turned him into an accidental fashion influencer.

When US President Donald Trump posted a photo of Maduro on January 3 after he was captured by US forces, internet sleuths quickly identified the outfit — and haven’t stopped talking about it since. Maduro appears to be wearing a gray Nike Tech fleece set in the picture.

Following the January 3 post, searches for “Nike Tech” on Google spiked, according to Google Trends.

The online conversations about the athleisure line also surged dramatically on X, intelligence platform PeakMetrics told Business Insider. Nike Tech was mentioned in over 5,000 X posts a day between January 3 and January 5, according to PeakMetrics. That’s up from the roughly 325 posts a day it averaged from November 1 to December 31.

On TikTok, users posted AI-generated versions of the photo and poked fun at the fashion choice. Some users joked that it was a new Nike campaign. Others made “steal the look” posts that broke down the cost of the full outfit, including the darkened eye mask and ear covering. The jacket and joggers cost over $200 combined.

As of Monday morning, the style of the Nike Tech fleece zip-up jacket that Maduro was photographed in was sold out on Nike’s US website in several sizes.

Nike declined to comment.

The fleece jacket already appeared to be a hot item before Maduro donned it on the Navy ship USS Iwo Jima. It appeared to be partially sold out in November and December, according to screenshots archived on Wayback Machine.

It’s been the subject of a viral debate in recent weeks, with some young men bragging on social media about being “team Nike Tech” or “team quarter-zip” to show whether they’re a part of Corporate America or not.

Some members of Gen Z and Gen Alpha also had their eyes on Nike Tech for the holidays. A clip of a girl opening her Christmas gift, a Nike Tech set, garnered over 1 million likes on TikTok and earned a comment from Nike itself.

Nike also made its way onto teens’ wish lists this year, and it dominated Piper Sandler’s semi-annual teen survey as the No. 1 clothing brand in fall 2025.

Maduro, the longtime Venezuelan leader, and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured in an overnight raid in Caracas over the weekend and taken to the US, where Maduro faces federal charges.

• AT&T told staff in a memo that it is moving its global headquarters to Plano, Texas.
• The new corporate campus would consolidate three existing locations in the Dallas area.
• Since instituting its full-time RTO plan last year, the company has experienced shortages in its workspace.

AT&T is ditching downtown Dallas for the suburbs.

The telecom giant said Monday it plans to move its global headquarters to a newly constructed corporate campus in Plano, Texas, starting in 2028.

The new global headquarters would consolidate three existing locations in the Dallas area, including the downtown skyscraper that has been AT&T’s home since 2008.

A spokesperson told Business Insider that the new facilities will be designed for “collaboration, innovation, and engagement,” and that the company still believes the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area is a good location for business.

Like many companies that have instituted full-time return-to-office policies, AT&T has experienced shortages of workspace and parking. AT&T said it has been developing the plan for the new headquarters for the past year.

Several north Dallas suburbs are among the fastest-growing cities and towns in the US, and AT&T’s spokesperson said the new campus will be closer to where many employees live.

In a memo to employees, which Business Insider obtained, CEO John Stankey acknowledged feedback about expectations for “well-maintained and functional workspaces” that were raised in an engagement survey last year.

“This is an investment intended to put the employee experience at the center of our workspace,” Stankey said.

Read the full memo here:

A New AT&T Global Headquarters in Plano

To: All Employees

I’d like to share some exciting news about the future of AT&T and how we work together.

After nearly a year of consideration, deliberation and planning, we have made the decision to invest in our employee experience and construct a new global headquarters at 5400 Legacy Drive in Plano, Texas.

Spanning across 54 acres of land, this location will provide us with the necessary room to cost effectively consolidate all Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex administrative space, including our three largest locations in Central Dallas, Plano and Irving, and create a corporate campus designed for collaboration, innovation and engagement.

The nature of the company and our work have both evolved significantly since we moved our headquarters to Dallas in 2008, but what hasn’t changed is our belief and confidence in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex as the right place to operate a thriving multinational corporation. We are targeting partial occupancy in the new space as early as the second half of 2028.

Over the next few years, we’ll be transforming this site from the ground up – demolishing the old buildings and designing a new, modern campus that’s built for how we work best: together. This is an investment intended to put the employee experience at the center of our workspace.

In last year’s employee survey, you shared your expectations for professional, well-maintained and functional workspaces. We made a commitment to invest in our workspaces to bring them to a common standard, notably in Atlanta, GA, Chantilly, VA and Bedminster, NJ, to name just a few locations. We will continue to evaluate and invest in our workspaces around the country as our business needs evolve and change.

I am sure this news triggers many questions and natural curiosity for nearly everyone. I am also sure that it will trigger speculation and editorial narrative by those outside the company. I’d ask for patience in getting the answers to your questions and suggest you ignore speculation from uninformed “sources” who are not participating in this work.

The planning team intends to share more information in a structured manner in the spring, which is when we will have more definitive answers and executional plans. While the small group of individuals responsible for this effort work to deliver the project on schedule and on budget, I ask that the rest of us continue to focus on delivering for our customers every day. This is just the start, and as this multi-year effort progresses, we promise to keep you informed in a timely manner.

I hope you share my excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead.

• Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, appeared in a Manhattan court on drug-trafficking charges.
• The Venezuelan president and Flores pleaded not guilty to the federal charges facing them.
• US forces captured the pair over the weekend during a military raid on Caracas.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro defiantly proclaimed his innocence in a Manhattan federal court Monday morning during his and his wife’s first public appearance since US forces captured them in a dramatic military raid on Caracas over the weekend.

“I am innocent. I am not guilty. I am a decent man. I am still president of my country,” Maduro told the judge through an interpreter when asked for his plea on narco-terrorism and weapons charges.

He was then interrupted by the judge, who interjected, “A not guilty plea will be entered on behalf of Mr. Maduro.”

It was one of several dramatic moments during the roughly 30-minute hearing, which Maduro used to protest his capture by US forces.

When he entered the courtroom, flanked by US marshals, he wished everyone a “Happy New Year” in English and locked eyes with members of the press sitting in the back of the courtroom.

Later, as the hearing wrapped up, a person sitting in the fourth row of the courtroom gallery stood to say Maduro would pay in the name of the Venezuelan people.

“I am a man of God, and I am a war prisoner,” Maduro responded in Spanish as US marshals escorted him out of the courtroom.

Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were arraigned on an indictment alleging a conspiracy to import cocaine and a related conspiracy to possess machine guns and other “destructive devices” in furtherance of drug trafficking. Maduro also faces a narco-terrorism conspiracy charge.

The two wore standard-issue jail garb of navy smocks over orange long-sleeve shirts with khaki pants. At their seats in the courtroom, they wore headphones to listen to their court-appointed translators.

When he stood to address the judge, Maduro held on to the arms of his chair as he rose unsteadily. Flores, her blonde hair tied back in a bun, had several small bandages on her face. She sustained injuries during her “abduction” in Caracas, one of her attorneys said.

During the packed noon hearing, US District Judge Alvin Hellerstein read the couple a summary of their charges and informed the Venezuelan president and first lady of their rights before the pair entered not guilty pleas. He addressed them as “Mr. Maduro” and “Ms. Flores.”

When asked to confirm his identity at the start of the hearing, Maduro began by stating in firmly spoken Spanish that he is “Presidente constitutional de la Republica Venezuela.”

“I am here, kidnapped, since January 3, Saturday,” Maduro said. I was captured in my home in Caracas, Venezuela.”

“There will be a time and place to go into all this,” the judge interrupted.

Asked for her plea, Flores spoke in a quiet, hoarse voice.

“Not guilty. Completely innocent,” she said through a court interpreter.

Both Maduro and Flores are facing health issues and will need medical attention while awaiting trial, their lawyers said.

“Miss Flores, during her abduction, sustained significant injuries, as you can see today here in court,” defense lawyer Mark Donnelly told the judge. “There’s a belief that she may have a fracture or severe bruising on her ribs,” the lawyer added.

The 25-page indictment filed against Maduro, his wife, son, and three others alleges that for over 25 years, Venezuelan leaders “have abused their positions of public trust and corrupted once-legitimate institutions to import tons of cocaine into the United States.”

Maduro was represented in court by Barry Pollack, an attorney best known for also representing WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange. Flores was represented by the Texas-based attorney Mark Donnelly and one of his law partners, Andres Sanchez.

The attorneys said they would not seek bail for Maduro or Flores on Monday, but reserved the right to seek it at a later date. Pollack told Hellerstein he anticipated “voluminous and complicated legal practice.”

“Mr. Maduro is the head of a sovereign state,” Pollack said. “He is entitled to the privileges and immunities that go with that office. In addition, there are issues about the legality of this military abduction.”

Hellerstein scheduled the next court hearing for March 17.

Maduro has long been a target of the US Justice Department. Manhattan federal prosecutors first indicted him in 2020, accusing him of heading the drug-trafficking network, the Cartel de los Soles.

In 2015, the nephews of Maduro’s wife, Flores, were arrested in Haiti and charged with drug trafficking by the same office handling the Maduro case.

The indictment says Maduro is “at the forefront of that corruption and has partnered with his co-conspirators to use his illegally obtained authority and the institutions he corroded to transport thousands of tons of cocaine to the United States.”

On Saturday, President Donald Trump said the US captured the Venezuelan president following large-scale strikes on the South American nation.

Trump said the US will “run” Venezuela until a “safe, proper, and judicious transition” can be facilitated. It remains unclear how the Trump administration would carry out this plan and for how long.

The industry’s first enterprise-grade IoT platform with end-to-end security for every home will be demonstrated at CES 2026

Afero, the enterprise-grade secure IoT Platform, today announced a collaboration with Texas Instruments (TI), the largest analog and embedded processing semiconductor manufacturer in the U.S., to create a seamless and secure Internet-of-Things (IoT) platform for smart home products. TI’s first Wi-Fi® microcontrollers (MCUs) purpose-built for IoT combined with Afero’s secure IoT software platform deliver the ultimate solution for connected devices – unmatched in affordability, reliability, security, and user-friendly development. Together, the two companies are working to provide a U.S.-sourced supply chain.

Today, Afero exclusively powers the leading home improvement retailer’s smart home platform used in millions of homes across America. Demonstrations at CES 2026 will showcase how, for the first time, TI’s Wi-Fi chips are integrated into the Afero-powered smart home platform.

TI’s semiconductor innovations, backed by the company’s strength in U.S. manufacturing and its commitment to delivering dependable supply, offer easy integration, reliable connectivity and a seamless experience for both developers and users. Designers can evaluate TI’s Wi-Fi portfolio and the Afero IoT software platform with a robust developer program to accelerate adoption in personal electronics, industrial, and enterprise markets. The ecosystem uniquely provides ease-of-use and fast, reliable operation to allow secure, direct connectivity to the cloud for any device.

Smart software, designed and built in the USA

Afero sets the gold standard for trusted, frictionless, and secure IoT. In a feat of engineering innovation, it not only uses hardware roots of trust, but also delivers over-the-top, end-to-end encrypted sessions to create a VPN-grade channel on microcontroller-class processors, thereby adding an additional layer of protection. This capability has ensured Afero devices remain protected, even during attacks that have successfully compromised and exploited other ecosystems.

Joe Britt, CEO and Co-Founder of Afero, said:

“For true enterprise-grade security, we must move beyond software-only solutions and establish verifiable trust at the deepest layer: the silicon itself.”

“Our partnership with Texas Instruments, which is expanding its U.S. manufacturing footprint, is a critical step toward supply chain resilience and enterprise assurance in the connected world.”

This collaboration is a powerful example of how product and manufacturing innovation combine to enable a smarter world.”

Securing AI-driven growth from the edge-in

The rapid AI-driven growth in data center workloads has been matched with a significant increase in data generation and processing at the edge. A widely cited analysis from Gartner projected that by 2025, 75% of enterprise-generated data will be processed outside a traditional centralized data center or cloud, while IDC anticipates 60% of the Global 2000 will double their investment on computing resources outside traditional datacenters. At the same time, the emergence of physical AI and embodied AI points to the growing need for IoT devices to enable and use AI. The Afero platform addresses this need by enabling both “data-centric AI,” which ensures the validity, veracity, and semantics of data at inception, and local processing capabilities which allow data reduction and federated processing before encrypted data is sent to its next destination – all with frictionless security.

“Frictionless security has always been a design principle at Afero,” said Bret Jordan, Chief Security Strategist of Afero. “This includes Afero’s commitment to the CISA Secure-by-Design pledge, efforts to enable the forthcoming U.S. Cyber Trust Mark, active preparations for post-quantum cryptography, leadership of future IoT standards efforts at the ITU-T, and the recognition that secure IoT and operational technology are critical for the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) process.”

In addition to a secure-by-design solution, the Afero platform reduces friction with a patented, pairing-free setup and onboarding workflow that improves the customer experience, which enables reliable fast onboarding and easy-to-use device management.

• Every US state has a capitol that houses its state legislature.
• Many state capitols are domed buildings similar to the US Capitol, but others are more unique.
• Maryland’s State House is the oldest capitol in continuous legislative use in the US.

A state’s capitol can tell you a lot about its history and government.

Many state capitols feature references to their locations, like Kansas’ statue of a Kansa warrior atop its dome, or the New Hampshire State House, which was built with locally sourced granite.

Every capitol has a unique look and distinct origin, and you can learn more about them here.

Montgomery, Alabama

Alabama’s capitol is where the Confederacy began, and there’s a brass star on one of the porticos marking the spot where Jefferson Davis was sworn in as its president, according to the Alabama Historical Commission.

The building that stands today was constructed in 1851, after a fire burned down the original building in 1849, according to the Alabama Historical Commission.

One of the more famous parts of the capitol grounds is the Avenue of Flags. It has the flag of every state plus a native rock from each state at each flag’s base. It was dedicated in 1968, according to Exploring Montgomery.

Juneau, Alaska

The Alaska State Capitol, completed in 1931, doesn’t look much different from any other office building in Juneau, save the marble columns. According to Alaska’s official website, it is one of few state capitols to not feature a dome.

As The New York Times reported in 1981, neither the building nor the location were popular with locals — both were chosen because the residents of Alaska had to fund construction themselves — but efforts to move the capitol have failed, even though a vote passed to move the location in the ’70s.

As recently as 2022, Alaskan senators sponsored a bill to move the capital, this time to Willow, reported Alaska Public Media, but for now, Juneau remains the Last Frontier’s capital city.

Phoenix, Arizona

Arizona’s capitol was dedicated in 1901. It stopped being the home of the legislative branches of government in 1960 — and by 1978, all government officials had been moved to other buildings nearby in an area called the Capitol Complex.

The original building was then officially converted into a museum that anyone can visit.

Little Rock, Arkansas

Arkansas’ capitol took 16 years to complete. Construction lasted from 1899 to 1915, and the building was designed by architects George R. Mann and Cass Gilbert, according to the Encyclopedia of Arkansas.

This building replaced the State House, which is now the Old State House Museum, according to Arkansas Heritage.

Sacramento, California

The building was constructed between 1860 and 1874, and designed by Reuben S. Clark. It has been listed as a California Historical Landmark since 1974, according to the Historic State Capitol Commission.

Its design was based on the US Capitol in Washington, DC, among other well-known American buildings, according to the State of California Capitol Museum.

The California State Capitol is located inside the 40-acre Capitol Park, which contains trees from around the world, a World Peace Rose Garden, and the Civil War Memorial Grove.

Denver, Colorado

The Colorado Capitol, which was completed in 1901, was also designed to look like the US Capitol, but with a Colorado twist: The dome is covered in real gold leaf donated by gold miners to reference the Colorado Gold Rush from 1858 to 1861, according to the Colorado General Assembly.

Hartford, Connecticut

The current Connecticut State Capitol is actually the third capitol the state has had since the American Revolution. This one, designed by Richard M. Upjohn, opened in 1879, according to Connecticut’s official state website.

The golden dome is surrounded by six pairs of statues representing agriculture, commerce, education and law, force and war, science and justice, and music, according to the State Capitol Preservation & Restoration Commission.

Dover, Delaware

The Delaware Legislative Hall was dedicated in 1933 and replaced the Old State House, which is opposite the Hall on the capitol mall. It was designed in the Colonial Revival style by E. William Martin, according to Delaware’s official state website.

Washington, DC

The United States Capitol is located on Capitol Hill in DC. It was in construction for decades, partially destroyed in 1814, and then finally finished in 1829, according to Architect of the Capitol. The famous, gigantic dome was later added during an expansive addition in 1855, designed by Thomas U. Walter.

Atop the dome sits the “Statue of Freedom,” a 19-foot statue of a woman wearing a battle helmet, holding a sheathed sword in one hand, and a laurel wreath and shield in the other. She’s been there since 1863, according to Architect of the Capitol.

Tallahassee, Florida

The current capitol, also called the New Capitol, is located directly in front of the original — together, they form the Capitol Complex. The New Capitol was built in 1977 by architect Edward Durell Stone and the firm of Reynolds, Smith, and Hills, according to the Florida Capitol website.

The website reports the building was designed in an “international style to reflect a modern Florida,” and includes a 22-story central tower.

The Old Capitol still stands, and it was restored to its original 1902 glory in the ’80s. Currently, the building is the Florida Historic Capitol Museum.

Atlanta, Georgia

Georgia’s capitol was finished in 1889 and designed by Willoughby J. Edbrooke and Franklin P. Burnham, according to the city of Atlanta’s website. It sits on the site of the former Atlanta City Hall/Fulton County Courthouse, which was there from 1854 to 1994.

According to the city, it’s one of 43 National Historic Landmarks in the state.

Honolulu, Hawaii

At the dedication of the Hawaiian capitol in 1969, then-Governor John A. Burns explained the design of the building, the Honolulu Star Advertiser reported.

“In this great State Capitol there are no doors at the grand entrances which open toward the mountains and toward the sea,” he said. “There is no roof or dome to separate its vast inner court from the heavens and from the same eternal stars which guided the first voyagers to the primeval beauty of these shores.”

The building is also surrounded by a reflecting pool meant to symbolize the Pacific Ocean, which surrounds the chain of 137 recognized islands that make up Hawaii, according to the State of Hawaii.

Boise, Idaho

Idaho’s capitol was designed by architects J.E. Tourtellotte and Charles Hummel, and was constructed between 1905 and 1920. According to Idaho’s Capitol Commission, it’s the only capitol in the US that is heated by geothermal water. It comes from a spring 3,000 feet underground.

Springfield, Illinois

According to a pamphlet by the Illinois Secretary of State’s office, the current capitol (the state’s sixth) was completed in 1888, 20 years after crews broke ground. At the time of its construction, the limestone dome was illuminated by 144 gas jets. However, the carbon emitted by those jets eventually turned the dome black.

It took 100 years, but it was finally cleaned in 1986.

Indianapolis, Indiana

According to the Indiana Department of Administration, Indiana’s capitol was completed in 1888, and is home to all executive offices, the Indiana State Senate, the Indiana House of Representatives, and the Indiana State Supreme Court, among others. It was constructed with Indiana limestone.

Des Moines, Iowa

The large golden dome is 23 carats, and the entire building is 275 feet tall, according to a visitor’s guide. It’s been re-gilded four times since its construction in 1886.

Overall, Iowa’s capitol has a total of five domes, making it the only capitol in the US with five.

Topeka, Kansas

Kansas’ capitol dome is topped with a statue called “Ad astra” (Latin for “to the stars”), which is part of the state’s motto, “ad astra per aspera” (“to the stars through difficulties”), according to the Kansas Historical Society.

The statue itself is a bronze depiction of a warrior from the Kansa tribe (also known as the Kaw Nation or Kanza), who call Kansas home and gave the state its name.

The entire building took 37 years to construct, also according to the Kansas Historical Society, from 1866 to 1903. 

Frankfort, Kentucky

Kentucky’s capitol was designed by Frank Mills Andrews, according to Kentucky’s official state website. There are also statues lining the front portico that represent Kentucky, the central figure, with Progress, History, Plenty, Law, Art, and Labor as her “attendants,” according to the state website.

The current building is the fourth capitol in the state, and it was completed in 1910.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana

The Louisiana Capitol is just one of nine capitols in the US that doesn’t feature a dome — and at 450 feet tall (or 34 floors), it’s also the tallest capitol in the country, according to Louisiana’s House of Representatives.

It was dedicated in 1932, without the person who had spearheaded the effort to build it, Senator Huey P. Long, a controversial figure in Louisiana’s history, as reported by Encyclopedia Britannica.

Augusta, Maine

The capital of Maine was originally Portland when the state broke away from Massachusetts in 1820. But when Mainers asked for a more centrally located capital city, Augusta was chosen in 1827, according to the Maine State Legislature. The building was completed by 1832.

The State House’s dome is topped with a female figure of Wisdom, which was designed by sculptor W. Clark Noble of Gardiner, a town 6 miles from Augusta.

Annapolis, Maryland

Maryland’s State House is the oldest capitol in continuous legislative use in the US, built in 1779, according to its official website. It’s also the only state capitol to have once served as the US capitol when the Continental Congress met there from 1783 to 1784, according to the website.

Boston, Massachusetts

The Massachusetts State House, built in 1789, originally had a wooden dome, but Paul Revere’s own company was responsible for covering it in copper in 1802, CBS News reported.

And the land it was built on? It used to be owned by none other than John Hancock, who was Massachusetts’ first elected governor.

Lansing, Michigan

The floors of Michigan’s capitol, which was dedicated in 1879, are made of limestone and have visible fossils in them, as you can see on the capitol’s official website.

St. Paul, Minnesota

According to Explore Minnesota, the state’s capitol is the second-largest self-supporting marble dome in the world, only behind St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.

Architect Cass Gilbert insisted on using Georgia marble for the dome, according to the Minnesota Historical Society. Some were critical of using out-of-state materials, so as a compromise, the contractor leased the quarry in Georgia and imported the rough marble so Minnesotans could do the work in-state.

It took nine years, but was completed in 1905.

Jackson, Mississippi

Designed by architect Theodore Link and constructed between 1901 and 1903, Mississippi’s state capitol was built on the site of an old state penitentiary, according to the state capitol’s official website. The building spans 171,000 square feet and features 4,750 original electric light fixtures, as well as an 8-foot statue of an eagle on the top of its dome.

Jefferson City, Missouri

Missouri’s state capitol was completed in 1917, according to its official website. Ceres, the goddess of grain, sits at the top of its dome.

In addition to Missouri’s state legislature, the 500,000-square-foot building houses the Missouri State Museum with exhibits about the state’s history and natural resources.

Helena, Montana

The main building of Montana’s state capitol was completed in 1902, and its two wings were added in 1911 and 1912, according to the Montana Historical Society. Inside, the building features works of art such as the mural “Lewis and Clark Meeting Indians at Ross’ Hole,” painted by Charles M. Russell in 1912.

Lincoln, Nebraska

Nebraska’s state capitol was designed by architect Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue and completed in 1932, according to its official website. The 400-foot tower is topped with a 19-foot bronze statue called “The Sower.”

It is the only state legislature to be unicameral, meaning it only has one chamber.

Carson City, Nevada

Nevada’s state capitol was built from 1870 to 1871 out of sandstone sourced from a quarry belonging to Abe Curry, the founder of Carson City, according to Travel Nevada. It features a silver-colored dome, a nod to Nevada’s nickname as “the silver state.”

Concord, New Hampshire

The New Hampshire State House was constructed between 1816 and 1819 with locally sourced granite from Rattlesnake Hill in Concord, according to the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources.

In 1818, a wooden sculpture of an eagle painted with gold was installed on top of the capitol dome. It was replaced with a copper replica in 1957, but the original sculpture can be viewed on display inside the capitol, according to EverGreene, the architecture firm that restored the State House’s gold-plated dome.

Trenton, New Jersey

After Maryland, New Jersey State House is the second-oldest capitol still in use, completed in 1792, according to the state of New Jersey’s official website. Much of the original building, designed by architect Jonathan Doane, was destroyed in a fire in 1885.

Architect Lewis Broome restored the capitol and added a cast-iron dome plated with copper and gold and featuring the Latin phrase “Fiat Justitia Ruat Coelum,” meaning  “There must be justice even though the heavens fall.”

Santa Fe, New Mexico

New Mexico’s capitol, known as the Roundhouse, is the only round capitol in the US, according to Santa Fe’s official tourist website. Architect Willard C. Kruger modeled the design after the Zia sun symbol, which he also incorporated into the capitol rotunda skylight. The symbol is also part of New Mexico’s state flag.

Albany, New York

When New York’s state capitol in Albany was finally finished after 32 years in 1899, it was at a cost of $25 million, making it one of the most expensive government projects in the US. In 2013, The New York Times reported the figure was equivalent to more than half a billion dollars today.

Inside the granite building, visitors can find 25 murals by William deLeftwich Dodge in the Governor’s Reception Room.

Raleigh, North Carolina

Completed in 1840, North Carolina’s 3-story capitol includes a copper dome, according to the National Park Service.

Bismarck, North Dakota

North Dakota’s state capitol is the tallest building in the state at 241 feet and 8 inches tall, according to the official government website. The Art-Deco structure is nicknamed the “Skyscraper on the Prairie,” according to the Society of Architecture Historians.

Columbus, Ohio

Construction of the Ohio Statehouse took over 20 years, from 1839 to 1861, according to its official website. Much of the work was done by prisoners at Ohio Penitentiary, some of whom left graffiti on the walls that was uncovered during restoration work, the website says. Built in the Greek-Revival architecture style out of Columbus limestone, the Statehouse is a designated National Historic Landmark.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Built in 1917, the dome on Oklahoma’s capitol was added more recently, in 2002, according to the Oklahoma Historical Society — it was left out of the original construction due to costs. The grounds of Oklahoma’s capitol also had active oil rigs until 1986. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

Salem, Oregon

Oregon’s Art Deco capitol is made of white Vermont marble with a gold statue of an “Oregon Pioneer” atop the dome, according to the capitol’s official website. In-person guided tours are paused due to construction.

Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania’s capitol, designed by architect Joseph Huston, cost $13 million to build when it was completed in 1906, which would be over $403 million today, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The building’s 272-foot dome is decorated with green glazed terra cotta tile, according to the capitol’s official website.

Providence, Rhode Island

The Rhode Island State House, built between 1895 and 1904, features the fourth-largest freestanding marble dome in the world, according to the Rhode Island Restoration Committee‘s official website. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1970.

Columbia, South Carolina

The construction of the South Carolina State House began in 1854, but halted due to the Civil War. The building still features cannonball marks from when the Union army captured Columbia in 1865, according to Discover South Carolina. The State House was finally completed in 1903, and it was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1976, according to the South Carolina Department of Archives and History.

A portrait of state senator Clementa Pinckney, who was killed in the 2015 shooting at Charleston’s Mother Emanuel AME Church, hangs in the Senate Gallery.

Pierre, South Dakota

South Dakota’s state capitol was constructed between 1905 and 1910, not long after South Dakota became a US state in 1889, according to the South Dakota Bureau of Administration. An annex was added in 1932. The Neoclassical building features scagliola plaster columns, war memorials, and stained-glass windows, according to Travel South Dakota.

Nashville, Tennessee

The Tennessee State Capitol opened in 1859. The architect, William Strickland, died during its construction in 1854 and was buried on the capitol grounds along with President James K. Polk and first lady Sarah Childress Polk, according to the Tennessee State Museum.

Austin, Texas

• The US captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in a surprise raid on Saturday.
• In a press conference, Trump said the US will look to tap the country’s oil reserves.
• Venezuela is home to over 300 billion barrels of proven crude oil, the largest reserves globally.

Venezuela is home to over 300 billion barrels of proven crude oil — more than any other country in the world.

That’s not the reason President Donald Trump gave, however, for the surprise raid on Venezuela on Saturday that netted its president, Nicolás Maduro, and his wife.

The Trump administration said Maduro’s capture was a law enforcement operation. Maduro has been indicted on drug trafficking and weapons charges and is now awaiting his first hearing in a notorious Brooklyn jail.

In a press conference on Saturday, though, Trump said that with Maduro removed from the country, the US would now look to tap the country’s oil reserves.

“We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country,” Trump said.

Trump called Venezuela’s oil business a “bust” and “nothing by comparison to what they could have been pumping, and what could have taken place.”

While it’s home to a fifth of the world’s oil reserves, Venezuela accounts for less than 1% of global daily crude production.

Take a look at how its reserves compare to other countries. This data, from OPEC, does not include oil sands deposits, which account for the majority of Canada’s proven crude oil reserves.
