New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he believes Tuesday’s state primaries, where the slate of progressive candidates won, show that American voters are looking for a “new kind of politics.”
Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman said New Yorkers need to vote for him for governor if they want to stop the red scare -- the march of socialism -- infecting New York's body politic under Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul's watch.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) on Sunday said he would not want to change the Constitution’s rules against non-native born Americans running for president, even as his political base continues to grow nationally. The 34–year-old democratic socialist was born in Uganda. ABC’s Jonathan Karl in a Sunday interview noted that Mamdani will soon meet…
Disturbing new claims of how a New York City public school teacher silenced and abused a third-grade student decades ago have emerged — a week after a jury awarded the victim a staggering $18 million verdict.

Iran has "no choice" but to develop a nuclear bomb, a media outlet linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said — the latest threat to the US-organized peace deal.
A handful of GOP lawmakers made their way to Washington, D.C. recently to attend and promote the Great American State Fair, organized by the President Donald Trump-linked group Freedom 250, but in doing so, “accidentally” exposed the event for its numerous shortcomings, The Daily Beast reported.Rep. Michael Baumgartner (R-WA), for instance, took to social media to attack his own state’s government for not participating in the fair, posting a photograph online of himself standing on the National Mall lawn. The “awkward post,” the Beast noted, depicted Baumgartner standing in front of “only a handful of people visible behind him.”Other GOP lawmakers engaged in similar “self-owns,” as the Beast described them. Rep. Blake Moore (R-UT) posted a video online from the fair asking Americans to attend the event, but in a manner in which he “all but [begged] people to let his office help them get there.” The video also “came with the unfortunate visual aid of Moore standing in an almost empty park, with an empty Ferris wheel turning behind him,” the Beast’s report reads.“Contact our office if there’s any help that you need to organize things or tours or get more information,” Moore said in the video he published online. “Please, please reach out. We’d love to help out in that way.”The Great American State Fair faced challenges weeks before it opened to the public last week after artists backed out of the event en masse after learning of its connections to Trump. In the four days since opening, the fair has been plagued with power failures that stalled a Ferris wheel and melted ice cream supplies.Investigative reporter Eric Flack also revealed that the state exhibits at the fair ranged wildly in quality, with some states’ exhibits amounting to two chairs in a small, shared booth.
Former "Superman" actor and prominent Trump supporter Dean Cain set out to showcase the administration's Great American State Fair this weekend — but critics say the photo he chose did the opposite, capturing a sea of mostly empty grass on the National Mall.Cain posted an aerial shot taken from the fair's Ferris wheel, framing it as a celebratory snapshot of the event marking America's 250th anniversary."View from atop the Ferris Wheel at the Great American State Fair!!" Cain wrote.The image, which showed long rows of white tents flanking a vast green expanse with only sparse clusters of people scattered across it, quickly drew ridicule — most notably from former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a frequent Trump critic."Hahahaha dude this is not the picture to show," Kinzinger wrote, adding a sardonic jab at the visible attendance: "All 6 people."Cain pushed back, insisting the turnout was robust and questioning Kinzinger's motives."There were thousands of people there and all around DC today, Adam. Why do you wish it was empty? That seems odd," Cain replied.But Kinzinger turned the exchange into something sharper, arguing his objection wasn't about crowd size at all — it was about what the event had become under President Donald Trump."Dean I don't WISH it empty. I WISH Trump wouldn't have turned the celebration of America into a celebration of HIM," Kinzinger wrote. "America is about no allegiance to one man."He went on to express personal disappointment at how the milestone anniversary had played out."I've been looking forward to 250 since i was a kid and heard about 200," Kinzinger wrote. "But Trump ruined this for his 80 year old ego."The back-and-forth added to a rocky stretch for the White House-backed fair, which has faced criticism over low attendance, performer dropouts, and a string of operational stumbles since its opening. For Cain, the attempt to project a thriving celebration instead handed critics a wide-angle view of empty lawn — and a fresh opening to needle the administration over the event's struggles.Dean I don’t WISH it empty. I WISH Trump wouldn’t have turned the celebration of America into a celebration of HIM. America is about no allegiance to one man.I’ve been looking forward to 250 since i was a kid and heard about 200. But Trump ruined this for his 80 year old ego https://t.co/aPmw9XbU6R— Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@AdamKinzinger) June 28, 2026
