Zohrán Mamdani has delivered a stunning upset in New York City politics, defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo to win the Democratic mayoral primary.
The 33-year-old state assembly member and democratic socialist becomes the first Muslim and the first Indian-American ever nominated by a major party for mayor of New York City.
In a fiery appearance on Meet the Press, NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani declared there should be “no billionaires” in a city plagued by inequality. Right-wing MAGA figures quickly misquoted him, claiming he opposes billionaires' existence. Mamdani, who just pulled off a major upset against Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary, backs a modest tax hike on millionaires to boost public services. Trump lashed out, calling Mamdani a “communist” and threatening funding. Mamdani dismissed the attacks, saying Trump is using identity politics to distract from policies that hurt workers.

U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that New York City could lose over $100 million in federal funding if Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor. In a fiery Fox News interview, Trump labeled Mamdani a “pure communist” and said his election would be “inconceivable.”
Mamdani, a rising progressive voice, has hit back, accusing Trump of using xenophobic and racially charged attacks to derail serious policy debate. The mayoral race is heating up as Mamdani promises to tax the wealthy and shift the burden off working-class New Yorkers.
Meanwhile, former Governor Andrew Cuomo may re-enter the race as an independent, turning this into a high-stakes national battle. Is Trump using funding threats as political blackmail—or is Mamdani’s rise shaking the conservative establishment?

New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is facing backlash after referring to himself as “African American” during a campaign event. Critics, including prominent Black community leaders and voters, have condemned the remark as misleading and offensive, arguing that Mamdani’s Ugandan Indian heritage does not align with the lived experience of Black Americans.

Rama Duwaji—artist, activist, and wife of NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani—has stepped into the spotlight after months of silence. The 27-year-old Syrian-American illustrator, known for her pro-Palestinian work, had avoided campaign publicity, sparking controversy and speculation. Critics claimed her art and political stance made her a liability.
But on June 24, as Mamdani celebrated his win, she stood beside him—silent, composed, present. Born in Texas, raised partly in Dubai, Duwaji's work explores Gaza, race, identity, and dissent. Her pieces have supported Palestinian students and questioned U.S. policies. She and Mamdani met on a dating app, married in a private ceremony, and have since become one of NYC’s most-watched political couples. Now, as Mamdani eyes City Hall, all eyes are on Rama Duwaji—the woman who may soon be NYC’s first lady.

Yemen's Armed Forces have launched a devastating hypersonic missile attack on Israel’s busiest airport — Ben Gurion, near Tel Aviv — marking the third strike in just two days. The missile, dubbed “Palestine-2,” caused widespread panic as sirens wailed and incoming flights were diverted or left circling above the Mediterranean. Israeli reports confirm the airport was shut down temporarily, halting all operations.
Yemen’s spokesman, Yahya Saree, confirmed the mission’s “complete success,” warning further strikes will continue as long as Gaza remains under siege. The aerial blockade imposed by Yemen since May has escalated, shifting from drone strikes to high-powered ballistic weaponry. Saree issued a chilling warning to Arab and Muslim nations — if Israel succeeds in Gaza, “your turn will come.” Yemen’s intensifying operations, rooted in solidarity with Palestine, are now disrupting Israeli airspace and testing regional security in ways unseen before. The message is clear: the war in Gaza won’t stay in Gaza.

Hunter Biden unleashes a furious, profanity-laced tirade on immigration—defending undocumented workers and slamming critics with “F--- you.” The White House fires back, accusing him of ignoring Americans killed by illegal immigrants and calling his remarks “callous, self-interested maliciousness.” As debates erupt over Democratic immigration rhetoric, DHS defends crackdowns while critics point to the Biden family's mounting controversies. Is this damage control—or defiance?

Trump has sharply criticized his own MAGA supporters, calling them “stupid people” and “gullible weaklings” amid growing controversy over the Jeffrey Epstein case. The Department of Justice and FBI recently released a report denying the existence of a high-profile client list linked to Epstein, a convicted Sex offender found dead in jail in 2019. However, many Republicans remain skeptical, suspecting a cover-up to protect powerful figures, especially given conflicting statements from Attorney General Pam Bondi, who claimed to possess Epstein’s client list. Trump has distanced himself from GOP members who accept the DOJ’s version, labeling them weaklings, while dismissing the controversy as a “hoax” fabricated by Democrats

In a fiery declaration, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially axed all federal funding for California’s long-delayed and over-budget high-speed rail project. Calling it the “HIGH SPEED TRAIN TO NOWHERE,” Trump accused Governor Gavin Newsom—mockingly dubbed “Newscum”—of overseeing a $130 billion disaster that has delivered nothing but cost overruns and broken promises. Despite decades of work and billions spent, the rail line connecting San Francisco to Los Angeles remains incomplete and years behind schedule. Trump praised Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy for ensuring that not “a single penny” more will be wasted on the project. The move not only highlights Trump’s disdain for the project but also signals a political jab at one of his most prominent Democratic rivals. With this announcement, Trump rallies fiscal conservatives and taxpayers, painting himself as the guardian of their wallets against California’s “boondoggle.”

In a shocking escalation of rhetoric, President Donald Trump has threatened to str!p U.S. citizenship and deport Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City Mayor. During a tour of the controversial “Alligator Alcatraz” migrant detention center in Florida, Trump called Mamdani a “communist” and claimed, “we don’t need him in this country.”
Mamdani, a Ugandan-born Indian American and U.S. citizen since 2018, has fired back — refusing to be intimidated and calling Trump’s words “an attack on democracy.” This video breaks down the explosive exchange, the rising tensions in the 2025 mayoral race, and why this moment could redefine the political landscape of America’s biggest city.
