News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Yeah, at this point it's honestly a better deal for whoever endorses Mamdani than it is for Mamdani.
Yep, just tagging along on his popularity but whatever (legally) gets him the win, I'm okay with that. She's going to be up for reelection in 2026 and wants to be able to use that point to sell herself to progressives and leftists.
She also desperately wants Mandami to win the Mayoral election because if he is unemployed in 2026 he might go after her job
If a no-name State Senator from Astoria loses a mayoral race to Cuomo, he's not going to turn around and ride a wave to the governor's mansion. But if this rising star lands in Gracie Mansion and has to go around cleaning up all Eric Adams's shit, there's a good chance he gets some of it on him and Hochul can use that to occupy his time for the next four years.
I'm thrilled to see a real progressive headed for the biggest mayorship in the country. But I don't see it as anything less than a poisoned chalice. The NYPD are not going to be kind to Zohran. The business wing of the party is going to put the screws to him every chance they get. The city bureaucracy will be a minefield. The press will be at this throat on day one.
And that's before Trump announced he wants to carpet bomb Hell's Kitchen just to prove a mayor can't fight back.
I'm totally fine with her tagging along with him. It's better than what Schumer and Jeffries are doing: undermining their own party and siding with Trump against the people.
Not only that she cannot be framed as going against the will of her party electorate which is HUGE for her.
Well yeah, provided a "donor" or two doesn't cut them off for it.
True. They might lose that sweet sweet AIPAC money.
