Eighteen days after pledging to make amends for calling the NYPD “racist,” Democratic mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani still refuses to deliver a real apology — instead hiding behind rambling non-answers that sound more like activist word salad than leadership.
New York City’s mayoral race has entered a new phase following Mayor Eric Adams’ announcement that he would not seek reelection. His exit clears the path for Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani, who released a video message Sunday framing the election as a historic turning point for city politics.
Zohran Mamdani’s Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) sparked outrage by honoring Assata Shakur, a convicted cop killer once placed on the FBI’s “most wanted terrorist” list.
House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.) is under fire as his refusal to endorse Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, fuels an internal party revolt.
A new poll reveals that socialist Zohran Mamdani could seize New York City’s mayoralty, even against political heavyweight and former New York governor, Andrew Cuomo.
