Mamdani is looking for his FDR (opens the original)
Read excerpt
She’s got a three-letter moniker and the right politics. Could AOC be Zohran Mamdani’s FDR? The New York City mayor has been mum – to the point of dead boring – when asked previously about whether he wants ally and democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for president in 2028. While he’s signaled his support, Mamdani answers that question diplomatically, saying she’d be great at whatever she chooses to do. But in a new interview in PBS’s “Mayors of the World” special set to air
Judge blocks Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn’s BK Dems rules overhaul (opens the original)
Read excerpt
By Annie McDonough and Sahalie Donaldson Brooklyn Democratic boss Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn’s attempt to maintain control of the county Democratic club was blocked in court on Monday.

New York City Council members read out 11 pages of questions over 17 minutes about the city’s pied-à-terre tax rollout at an oversight hearing on Tuesday, probing in detail how Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration came to decide how to notify homeowners about the tax and determine eligibility. But Council Members Gale Brewer and Linda Lee read the long list of questions to a row of empty chairs in the City Council chambers, as no one from the Mamdani administration showed up to testify. “We’re
Mamdani orders agencies to find 2.5% savings – again (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sooner or later, every mayor comes to the PEG. The Program to Eliminate the Gap, often criticized as an overly blunt budget tool to lower city agency spending, has nonetheless been used (to varying degrees of frequency) by a string of previous mayors to rein in city spending. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, though a vocal critic of austerity budgets, arguably arrived there earlier this year, when he instructed city agencies to find 1.5% savings in fiscal year 2026 and 2.5% in fiscal year 202
