NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) appointed NYPD veteran and author Edwin Raymond as Sheriff of New York City. There is nothing but praise from all quarters about this child of Haitian immigrants who joined the NYPD when he was 22 years old. As I posted last year, the status quo dinosaurs wanted desperately to beat Zohran Mamdani because he'd be shaking up the sclerotic system which has benefited the same elites in NYC over the decades. Next, watch His Honor address the lucrative, but calcified, NYC Marshal program.

A jet goes blind over the Baltic, and the problem is suddenly much larger than one aircraft. An RAF plane carrying British Defense Secretary John Healey last week lost GPS for a three-hour flight after he visited British troops in Estonia, a fellow NATO ally. . Pilots used another navigation system and officials said it was unclear whether Healey's plane had been deliberately targeted. The plane landed safely -- which is precisely why the episode matters. No missile had been fired, no NATO border had been crossed in the old-fashioned sense.
Yet the alliance still had to decide whether anything serious had happened. NATO's answer to incidents like this has long been calibrated in Washington. It is typically measured, lawyerly, slow to escalate.
U.S. forces deployed to war zones have been targeted using commercially available location data, according to reports fielded by military officials, an illustration of how the global surveillance economy is shaping the battlefield.
When the Pentagon announced a $620 million loan last year to a small North Carolina startup linked to Donald Trump Jr., defense officials and the company tried to tamp down suspicions of cronyism.

And the startup's founder told reporters that his company, Vulcan Elements, received no political favoritism. But interviews and Defense Department records reviewed by ProPublica show that the request to loan hundreds of millions of dollars to the firm linked to Trump Jr. was made by Peter Navarro, a White House adviser to President Donald Trump and a friend of Trump Jr.'s.
