‘He may be watching’: Mamdani on Fox News speaks directly to Trump

New York mayoral contender steps into lion's den and says he is ready to speak at any time' to help lower cost of living

Zohran Mamdani, the leading candidate to be the next mayor of New York, stepped into the lion's den on Wednesday when he sat for an interview with Fox News, the rightwing news organization that has spent weeks demonizing him and his democratic socialist goals.

Speaking to host Martha MacCallum, Mamdani was asked about funding for his proposals, which include freezing increases on rent-stabilized apartments, providing free buses and offering free childcare - and whether other services would be cut to achieve those goals.
