or: Mayor Successfully Reducing Corruption
The Wall Street JournalNew York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
It could not matter less whether Trump is governing the country in between hot yoga workouts or whether he's issuing orders via morse code blinking while on life support. Stop paying attention to the king's body rather than the fact that we have a king.

Democrats sometimes act like it'll be ok when they return to power and roll back Trump initiatives, but stories like this show how stupid that thinking is: decisions get locked in, wars can't be unstarted, people die of diseases, forests burn, children lose their one chance to camp in wilderness.

The US could aid the Nicaraguan opposition, if necessary by reaching an arrangement with Iran whereby we secretly give them something they want and then they pay funds to those who are against Ortega. Call it the "Persia-Against" initiative.
