Murdoch-owned tabloid depicts Mamdani with hammer and sickle symbol as Trump threatens to withhold federal funding from the city.

Zohran Mamdani wasted little time as mayor-elect of New York City before making clear that he sees part of his new role as standing up to the president of the United States, who had threatened not only to defund the city if he won but also to arrest and deport him.

Duwaji went all black for the occasion. She wore a sleeveless denim top by Palestinian-Jordanian designer Zeid Hijazi featuring laser-etched embroidery, described by the brand as “a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional washing techniques.”

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani obliterated Donald Trump in a rousing victory speech, calling the president a “despot” who has betrayed America. Mamdani, whom Trump labeled a “communist” this week before endorsing his controversial opponent Andrew Cuomo, will be the city’s first Muslim mayor.

Zohran Mamdani has won a resounding victory in the New York mayoral election, heralding in a new era for the city as he promises to be “Trump’s worst nightmare”.

Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic front-runner in the New York City mayoral race, marched under the bridge’s arches with elected officials, holding a banner that said, “Our Time Is Now.”

Zohran Mamdani's focus on affordability concerns has energized many young voters around the country, who say he speaks to some of their most pressing economic concerns.
