By Eddie CastroWe are entering the third week of the 2025-26 NBA season and one of the biggest questions going into the new campaign for the New York Knicks is could they replicate or perhaps be a better team than they were last year?

The contempt for African people, leaders and nations by President Trump is once again on display. Trump has arrogantly challenged the national sovereignty of “the Giant of Africa.” Nigeria is once again a target of the Trump administration’s short-sighted and haphazard foreign policy actions.

Disappointing and disappointed Dems are currently occupying the same news cycle.

On Wednesday night, 12th November, the historic 43-day government shutdown ended when the House agreed to the Republican spending bill with a 222-209 vote. But while temporary relief is certain, cheers may be slightly muted.

By Mary Alice MillerBetween the Primary and General Elections, polling consistently predicted that Mamdani would win. But New York City’s money class and voters who support Israel no matter what its government does held on to hope that Cuomo would pull out a victory. In the end, polling undercounted Mamdani’s support in the General Election, just like the Primary.

But there was one political analyst who predicted that Mamdani could win by 50% in a three way race despite, or maybe because of, his Democratic Socialist affiliation. That analyst is Michael Lange, publisher the politics newsletter The Narrative Wars, who took a hyper-granular look at the election results.Yes, Mamdani had a strong ground game with 100,000 volunteers who canvassed for him across the city. And yes, half of the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America 11,000 members joined within the past year.

But that was not enough to win the mayoral election.

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani joins other politicians for the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the National Urban League's new headquarters in Harlem on November 12, 2025, in New York City. In a recent interview, Mamdani stated that he plans to call President Donald Trump before taking office i...

Not only did I greatly admire Garvey, but his conviction also represented one of the most poignant examples of the injustice that the law can exert on an indivi
