US President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News Wednesday that NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani should be very nice to him since he is 'one that sort of has to approve a lot of things.'
Mamdani’s politics feels unusual compared to India’s current climate. He unapologetically foregrounds Muslim identity at a time when doing so in India invites scrutiny.
Mamdani is NYC's first South Asian Muslim mayor. He framed his victory as reclamation of power by city’s working class, ending his speech with 'Dhoom Machale' playing in the backdrop.
Mamdani’s victory over Cuomo, by almost 10 percentage points, comes at a time when the Democratic Party is still reeling from the loss of White House and US Congress in November 2024.
A stunted middle class may be a direct result of extreme inequality. Folks at the top don’t see teeming masses as a meaningful market, except for utilities, soap, short videos, and personal loans.
Up to 100% foreign ownership of insurance firms, and overhauled rules for banks, pension funds and capital markets aim to shift savings from idle assets toward equities, bonds and long-term investments.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
Comrade Kejriwal can be found without any searching. He will provide double the freebies and subsidies offered by comrade Mamdani.
