Sri Lanka's Leftist Coalition Wins 2024 Snap Election: Dissanayake Secures Parliamentary Majority

In a stunning political shift, Sri Lanka's leftist ruling coalition, led by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, has secured a landslide victory in the 2024 snap parliamentary elections.

With partial results showing Dissanayake’s National People’s Power (NPP) on track for a commanding majority, the win positions the Marxist-leaning leader to challenge austerity measures imposed by previous administrations.

This video explores the implications of the election results, Dissanayake's anti-austerity stance, and what his victory means for Sri Lanka's struggling economy.

“He looks terrible like”—Trump Blasts India-born 'Socialist Muslim' Zohran Mamdani | NYC Mayrol Poll

Donald Trump has launched a scathing personal attack on Zohran Mamdani — the 33-year-old Indian-origin socialist who just won New York City's Democratic mayoral primary. Calling him a "100% communist lunatic" with a "grating voice" and “terrible looks,” Trump didn't hold back. The president also lashed out at progressive Democrats like AOC and Chuck Schumer for backing Mamdani, warning that NYC is "falling to socialism." Who is Zohran Mamdani? Can a Marxist win New York? And why is Trump going nuclear over this primary upset?

Indian-origin socialist stuns America: Zohran Mamdani defeats Cuomo in New York City mayoral shocker

Indian-origin Democrat Zohran Mamdani has shocked the U.S. political establishment by defeating former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary. Backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, Mamdani's victory marks a major moment for progressive politics and a deep shake-up within the Democratic Party. Son of filmmaker Mira Nair and Marxist scholar Mahmood Mamdani, Zohran ran on a bold platform focused on housing, affordability, and social justice — and won.
