Facing mounting pressure and a looming election against socialist Zohran Mamdani, Mayor Eric Adams has withdrawn from the 2025 NYC mayoral race.

Mamdani, if Elected Mayor, Pledges to Order N.Y.P.D. to Arrest Netanyahu, and the immediate reaction seems to be a collective head-scratching.

Nearly 100 donors have requested refunds from Senator John Fetterman’s campaign, primarily citing his shift towards pro-Israel and Republican-aligned policies since the October 7th Gaza attacks. These requests, largely from small-dollar donors, represent a small percentage of total contributions but signal significant dissatisfaction among some supporters.
