NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A prominent civil rights organization is pushing for statewide reparations, arguing that a historical debt is owed to Black New Yorkers due to deep wealth disparities rooted in the state’s ties to slavery and decades of systemic discrimination.”Reparations are a debt that is owed. Enslaved Black people built the foundation of New York’s economy, but Black families in our state still face racism that has been codified into our laws and budgets,” said Lanessa Owens-Chaplin, Director of the Racial Justice Center at the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU). “New York State was not a bystander to slavery — it created, enacted, and protected the institution. Reparations must be extended to all Black New Yorkers descended from those enslaved by New York State, and to all Black New Yorkers still living under the systems slavery built.”In a joint report released last week titled “The Other New York: The Legacy of Slavery and the Case for Reparations Now,” the NYCLU and the Legal Defense Fund (LDF) detailed the lasting economic impacts of slavery and Jim Crow–era policies on Black communities across the state.CHICAGO SUBURB LOCALS HOPE REPARATIONS ADDRESSES ‘AFFORDABILITY PRESSURES’ AS BLACK POPULATION…

This article was originally published by Clifford F. Thies and John Elrick at The Mises Institute.  “You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics.” — Robert Solow, 1987 The economy has been growing steadily since we started to recover from the 2020 pandemic and shutdown; the unemployment rate is and has been near the bottom of the range normally considered to be full employment; and, wages adjusted for inflation are the highest they’ve ever been. Nevertheless, the productivity slowdown observed by Robert Solow forty years ago seems to have returned, and surveys of consumer confidence are at or near their all-time lows. This essay explores possible reasons for the productivity slowdown and widespread economic uncertainty in the midst of our AI boom. Measurement Problems Among the possible explanations of the productivity slowdown or what merely appears to be a productivity slowdown is our limited ability to measure productivity in an economy increasingly dominated by services. It wasn’t so long ago that productivity was measured in the sectors of the economy concerned with physical output such as agriculture and manufacturing. The productivity of office workers was either ignored or simply subsumed into the productivity of goods-producing companies.…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The Department of Homeland Security and The New York Times are going toe-to-toe after the agency accused the outlet of “false” reporting alleging that federal agents across the country were told that the FBI would not be investigating confrontations with ICE officers.”This is FALSE,” DHS posted on social media. The agency said that “the relationship between DHS and [the Justice Department] in investigating assault on federal officer cases has NOT changed, and [the FBI] will continue to investigate in accordance with agency policy.””This administration has been clear, anyone who assaults law enforcement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” DHS added.In response, Danielle Rhoades Ha, a spokesperson for The New York Times, said the outlet stands by its reporting, telling Fox News Digital, “We’re confident in the accuracy of our reporting, which revealed that Federal agents around the country were told in recent days that the F.B.I. would no longer investigate confrontations with immigration agents.”TRUMP BLASTS NEW YORK TIMES, CNN FOR ‘SEDITIOUS’ COVERAGE OF IRAN WAR Rhoades Ha pointed out that the story “included a joint statement from the Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security denying that such…

LONDON – Lockheed Martin on Monday introduced a cheaper Patriot interceptor as the U.S. and partner nations grapple with the exorbitant costs of shooting down cheap drones and missiles. The PAC-3 Adapted Capability Effector, or ACE, will cost less than half of what a PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement, or MSE, interceptor costs, the defense firm said, and can be used with legacy equipment.The announcement, which came during London’s 2026 Farnborough Airshow, comes as the U.S. looks to reduce its dependence on expensive interceptors to combat mass-produced munitions, a juxtaposition that has come under increased scrutiny as American forces have blown through the country’s finite interceptor stockpile to combat Iran’s relatively inexpensive drones during Operation Epic Fury.The PAC-3 interceptors cost an estimated $4 million, far more than the $35,000 typical price tag of an Iranian Shahed drone. Experts warn that the U.S.’ increased interceptor use has raised concerns about whether stockpiles can be replenished quickly enough to sustain a prolonged campaign. The PAC-3 ACE is designed to combat airbreathing threats — weapons that rely on oxygen for propulsion — cruise missiles and close- and short-range ballistic missiles.Lockheed Martin said the new interceptor will still be compatible with the Patriot weapon system…

President Donald Trump on Monday signed an executive order making it harder for U.S. defense contractors to obtain waivers allowing them to buy critical minerals and other materials from China and other prohibited foreign suppliers, the administration’s latest effort to reduce reliance on overseas supply chains for weapons production.The new rules mean defense contractors will have to do much more than simply show that a Chinese supplier is the easiest or cheapest option.Companies seeking a waiver will need to prove they searched for alternatives, explain where their materials come from and lay out a plan to move away from prohibited suppliers. Contractors will face the loss of contracts if they don’t prove they are doing enough to source domestically. “No more: ‘we tried nothing and we’re out of options’,” White House adviser Peter Navarro told reporters during a briefing before the executive order was released.The order comes as the Pentagon pushes defense contractors like Lockheed Martin and Boeing to rapidly expand weapons production while facing persistent vulnerabilities in the supply chains that feed the U.S. military.Many critical minerals and processed materials used in missiles, aircraft and other advanced systems still rely on Chinese suppliers, leaving companies caught between demands to…
