Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism Amichai Chikli issued a stark warning following the election of Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City, describing the result as a "critical turning point" for the city's Jewish community.
In a strongly-worded opinion column published by Fox News, Chikli wrote, "The city that once stood as the world’s beacon of liberty has handed the keys of power to a Hamas sympathizer." He added, "It is almost unthinkable that New York - the proud and historic center of Jewish life - could become the American city where Jews no longer feel at home or safe."
Chikli argued that Mamdani's victory signals a broader ideological shift in New York, placing the city's future in the hands of a figure he said "r...
New York City Mayor-elect Zorhan Mamdani responded to a new Anti-Defamation League (ADL) initiative to monitor his administration, as well as the harsh criticism from the organization's CEO and National Director, Jonathan Greenblatt.
Speaking to the press on the day after his election, Mamdani stated that he had not met with Greenblatt and claimed that he takes the issue of antisemitism "incredibly seriously."
He noted that in his victory speech, "I spoke about how my City Hall will stand steadfast with Jewish New Yorkers in fighting antisemitism across the city and making that clear in the actions that we deliver on January 1st."
The Mayor-elect added, "I look forward to working with Jewish leaders across this city, whether they're elected officials, rabbis, or community...

Annapolis, MD - Nov. 5, 2025 - Fewer than 50% of registered Maryland voters said they would support Gov. Wes Moore (D) if the election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.
But that’s actually a good baseline for Moore for an election that’s still a year away, said Mileah Kromer, director of the poll produced for the Institute of Politics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
“I was the most interested, this far out from the election, in what Wes Moore’s vote share right now is, because there’s no Republican candidate nominee and Wes Moore is obviously going to be the nominee for the Democratic Party,” Kromer said. “So, it’s Wes Moore versus generic Republican versus generic other candidates. I think...
Baltimore, MD - Nov. 5, 2025 - If you or someone you know is sick, you’re not alone. ‘Tis the season, but hospitals across Baltimore are packed even though respiratory illnesses remain relatively low.
Dr. Sharon Swencki is an emergency medicine physician at MedStar Health. She said the late-summer COVID rise has tapered off, and they are not seeing a spike in respiratory illnesses, but the emergency rooms have been full.
“It’s a trickle-down effect,” Swencki said. “When the hospitals are full, then the ERs are full, and then we can’t get patients through the ER and upstairs.”
When emergency rooms are filled, hospitals cannot accept new patients. Swencki said Union Memorial Hospital and many others across Baltimore have had to divert ...

New York, NY - Nov. 5, 2025 - The voters have spoken, and Agudath Israel of America congratulates those elected this election cycle.
Amongst the stories in this election is the remarkable turnout of the Orthodox Jewish community in New York City. Hundreds of thousands participated — including many first-time registrants and voters. Community organizations in Flatbush, Queens, Borough Park, Far Rockaway, and throughout the city galvanized, with Agudath Israel, in a proactive, multi-pronged get-out-the-vote effort. This significant level of engagement, which even exceeded the already higher turnout in the general population, reflects a deep sense of responsibility. It demonstrates a firm understanding that our community’s voice, expressed at the ballot...

New York, NY - Nov. 5, 2025 - Jewish organizations reacted to the election of Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani as the next Mayor of New York City with a vow to hold the mayor-elect "accountable" for protecting Jewish communities and residents in light of his support for antisemitic movements.
The United Jewish Appeal-Federation of New York, Jewish Community Relations Council of New York, Anti-Defamation League of New York and New Jersey, American Jewish Committee of New York, and the New York Board of Rabbis said in a joint statement: “New Yorkers have spoken, electing Zohran Mamdani as the next Mayor of New York City. We recognize that voters are animated by a range of issues, but we cannot ignore that the Mayor-elect holds core beliefs fundamentally at odds ...
Companies in the private sector added 42,000 jobs in October, payroll processing firm ADP said Wednesday.
The figure is above economists’ estimates of a gain of 28,000 jobs. The prior month's payrolls number was revised to a loss of 29,000 from an initially reported loss of 32,000.
"Private employers added jobs in October for the first time since July, but hiring was modest relative to what we reported earlier this year," said Nela Richardson, ADP's chief economist. "Meanwhile, pay growth has been largely flat for more than a year, indicating that shifts in supply and demand are balanced."
Trade, transportation and utilities added 47,000 positions, leading job creation in October. Education and health services added 25,000 jobs, financial activities...

New York City elected democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani as its next mayor on Tuesday, according to Decision Desk HQ, sending a message to Andrew Cuomo, the former New York governor, that Mamdani’s message of affordability resonated loudly.
In the day’s big governor’s races, Abigail Spanberger and Mikie Sherrill, two former Democratic House members, will now lead Virginia and New Jersey, Decision Desk HQ projected. Spanberger will be the commonwealth’s first female leader.
In Virginia’s attorney general race, Del. Jay Jones (D) overcame a scandal involving leaked violent text messages to beat incumbent Attorney General Jason Miyares (R).
Polls close next at 11 p.m. EST in California.

The Fox News Decision Desk projected that New Jersey Democrat Rep. Mikie Sherrill will become the next governor of New Jersey, keeping the state blue in her ballot battle against Republican nominee Jack Ciattarelli.
By defeating Ciattarelli in a very competitive and combustible race that grabbed plenty of national attention, Sherrill will succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy.
Sherrill has served in the U.S. House since 2019, after flipping the Garden State's 11th District seat away from the Republicans as part of 2018's blue wave election year during President Donald Trump's first term in the White House. Sherrill made history as the first woman to represent the suburban district in northern New Jersey."We've seen, you know, ralli...
