  • Tulsa, Oklahoma, mayor backs new plan for reparations for race massacre victims

    Tulsa, Oklahoma's new mayor said on Tuesday that he is backing parts of a plan that aims to pay reparations to the survivors and descendants of a 1921 race massacre in the city, after other efforts to ensure compensation for victims have failed. Survivors of a white mob's attack on Black Americans have turned to state and local courts seeking reparations, but those efforts have stalled. The U.S. Department of Justice in January said while there are credible reports that law enforcement was involved in the attack, it had no avenue to prosecute the crimes that occurred, citing the expiration of relevant statutes of limitations and the youngest potential defendants being more than 115 years old.

The Democrat — a rising star in the party who is seen as a potential 2028 White House contender — is also seeking more money for universities, offering hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks to encourage new power plant construction and relying on billions in surplus cash to balance spending.

  • Trump’s tariff tactics carry higher economic risks than during his first term

    When Donald Trump started the biggest trade war since the 1930s in his first term, his impulsive combination of threats and import taxes on U.S. trading partners created chaos, generated drama -- and drew criticism from mainstream economists who favor free trade. The trade war sequel that Trump has planned for his second term – if it unfolds the way he's described it – would likely be a different matter altogether. Trump appears to have grander ambitions and is operating in a far more treacherous economic environment this time.
