President Donald Trump said Tuesday that any Jewish person who votes for Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, is "stupid." “Any Jewish person that votes for Zohran Mamdani, a proven and self professed JEW HATER, is a stupid person!!!” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

JERUSALEM — The election of Zohran Mamdani as New York City’s next mayor has sent a chill across Israel as people come to terms with the victory of a politician propelled by an outspoken pro-Palestinian message that is rare in U.S. politics.

U.S. Representative Elise Stefanik, a Republican, formally entered the gubernatorial race against New York Governor Kathy Hochul on Friday. Should Stefanik win the governor's seat in 2026, a rarely used gubernatorial power could allow her to oust newly elected New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a Democrat.

When Zohran Mamdani inveighed against inequality and corruption during his underdog bid for New York City mayor, Joseph Beyanga at Uganda's Daily Monitor could hear echoes of conversations almost 20 years earlier with the then-intern on the newspaper's sports desk.

New York City's CEOs and other billionaires spent more than $40 million trying to defeat the mayor-elect. Now they have to live with him.

Nair, the iconic filmmaker behind such classics as "Mississippi Masala," starring a young Denzel Washington, "The Namesake" and "Monsoon Wedding," was wearing a bright blue and green sari and sporting a traditional Hindu bindi on her forehead. She kissed the mayor-elect's arm.

A Houston police union targeted New York City officers with a recruitment campaign after Zohran Mamdani, who previously called to defund police, won the NYC mayoral race.

Zohran Mamdani wasted little time as mayor-elect of New York City before making clear that he sees part of his new role as standing up to the president of the United States, who had threatened not only to defund the city if he won but also to arrest and deport him.
